This Old House premiered in 1979 and has since become one of the longest-running home-improvement programs on television. Each season, the show follows a team of experts as they work together to renovate and restore a historic home or a contemporary house in need of major upgrades.
The show's episodes typically focus on a specific area of the home, such as the kitchen, bathroom, or outdoor space, and explore the challenges and decisions that go into each renovation project. The team shares information about construction techniques, materials, and design choices, as well as tips and tricks for DIY enthusiasts.
In addition to the main renovations, This Old House also includes other segments, such as "Ask This Old House," where viewers can send in questions for the experts to answer, and "Inside This Old House," which takes viewers behind the scenes to show how the show is produced.
Over the years, This Old House has inspired countless homeowners to tackle their own home improvement projects and has earned numerous awards for its informative and entertaining content. The show has also spawned several spin-offs, including This Old House Magazine and the popular PBS series, Ask This Old House.
