New ROCK THE BLOCK Season ‘Biggest, Boldest and Best One Yet’
By Movieguide® Contributor
ROCK THE BLOCK is coming back for a fifth season.
“The countdown begins: #RockTheBlock Season 5 hits HGTV on March 4 at 9|8c,” HGTV’s Instagram account announced.
The network also promised that Season 5 will be “different” from previous seasons — this year, the show’s contestants are heading to the beach.
“The houses up for renovation are attached waterfront homes located in Treasure Island, Florida, which we’re sure will make for some pretty coastal-creative home ideas,” the HGTV website reads. “Each team will have just six weeks and a budget of $250,000 to renovate attached waterfront homes, each featuring a pool, boat dock and dazzling views of Boca Ciega Bay, and transform them into luxurious homes that reflect their signature vision and stunning design style.”
This season’s competitors include BATTLE ON THE BEACH’s Bryan and Sarah Baeumler, BARGAIN BLOCK’s Keith Bynum and Evan Thompson, UNSELLABLE HOUSES sister team Lyndsay Lamb and Leslie Davis, FIX MY FLIP’s Mitch Glew and house-flipping expert Page Turner.
Host Ty Pennington shared that this season has “got it all — blood, sweat and definitely some tears!” while former ROCK THE BLOCK winner Brian Kleinschmidt, who is returning to the show as a judge, said, “We’ve been involved with all 5 Seasons of RTB and this will be the biggest, boldest and best one yet!”
Movieguide® previously reported on ROCK THE BLOCK’s fifth season:
HGTV’s ROCK THE BLOCK will return this spring for its fifth season.
The hit show will feature seven episodes, and this season will focus on renovating waterfront homes in Florida.
HGTV reports, “Top HGTV designers have just weeks and a limited budget to renovate four blank-slate homes on the same block with their signature styles. The designers who net the highest appraisal get bragging rights and a street named in their honor.”
“The competition format is incredibly popular with our viewers, with the previous run of ROCK THE BLOCK delivering HGTV’s highest-rated title in the first quarter of 2023 among two coveted demos, Adults 25-54 and Women 25-54,” Loren Ruch, HGTV’s Head of Content, said. “This season’s four expert teams know what it takes to compete on the block, so we’ll keep them on their toes and crank up the intensity with unexpected new challenges. Our stars are ready for a rematch and won’t hold back to win it all.”
During the competition, each pair will have a maximum budget of $250,000 to renovate the homes located in Treasure Island, Florida. In addition to being by the water, the homes will all include a boat dock and pool.
