Looking for a Block alternative?

Long term Block fan here. I've watched every episode since 2003 and I'm pretty sure I will keep watching 'til it dies.

HOWEVER, I also understand the feelings people have about the modern Block. The bloat, the MAFS casting, the manufactured drama, the terrible judging, Scotty Cam, the endless and intrusive product placement and the ridiculous and unrealsitic auctions.

May I suggest an alternative?

Dream Home. It's a show on Aus Channel 7+. Six couples on a journey to renovate the homes of the other competitors. It's a big budget show. Not room renos but full-on house renovations - they basically rebuild these houses and then design and fit them out.

It's good guys - feels like big budget but without all the crap we are beginning to hate about the Block. I've watched the first ten episodes and I'm seriously impressed, it feels like old school Block. Proper reno and design with little of the modern Block bs.

See if you can find it - it's good, trust me.

(I have no links at all to this show, I just like it)
