He really does an amazing job on these houses. I don’t know if I would necessarily want to live in one of them though as they look a bit too rustic to be comfortable. He certainly does an excellent job of giving them a retro look…. all that’s missing with his show is Cousin Larry:(

I live a few miles away, the locals can’t stand him, he came in and tried to take over the town and turn it into his little playhouse. The only time I saw him was while at the supermarket recently.. and I kid you not, he was on his cell phone talking real loud (as if he was trying to let everyone hear him) about his fans sending him letters. My wife couldn’t believe it, she was like “did he just say what I think he said?”. The guys seems like he has some inferiority issues. I know what you’re thinking.. you saw the guy once and you got him all figured out? Well. you had to be there… I mean my wife and I don’t even think he was talking to anyone on the phone, though we can’t prove that. He just seemed so obvious about talking real loud so everyone can hear him talking about his “fans”.

It’s a typical old country town, it’s nice and quite with no crime, nice people and only a few minutes from Interstate 81.

I live a few miles away from him. I saw him recently at a grocery store and.. I kid you not.. he was on his cell phone talking real loud (as if he was making sure everyone around could here him) talking about his fans sending too many letters! My wife is like… did he just say what I think he did? lol.

First of all — to each his own — but I can tell you that if, while driving,z I stumbled on this town with all the “restored” houses, I would turn around right then and there since all the houses look like something from a horror movie. It looks like the kind of town where you know if the hero stops there, either vampires or zombies are going to be paying him a visit. Alfred HItchcock would have loved it. Maybe that’s what he could do with all the houses when he’s done….(he is after all “in the business”) — he could rent out the entire town for shooting horror films….what ya think?

Weathered can look great when done right, but in Pinchot’s manner it’s way overdone.

Cathryn, Bronson Pinchot knows more about Architecture than anyone on any show, period. Perhaps you haven’t been paying close enough attention, but Pinchot’s knowledge on the subject is quite extensive and impressive.

May I also note the the man is a certified genius, and graduate of Yale. He graduated magna cum laude from Morse College, and was valedictorian number one in his class. Now with that said, I will agree that his approach and end results are more than a bit eccentric.

I have no idea who he would ever buy his house when the day comes. I do really enjoy watching his program though. He’s extremely inventive, but I do wish he was a bit more conventional. I cringe at the way he handles all those historical materials. It’s like what’s the point? It’s like he wants to use everything. It’s like hoarding on a very sophisticated level, but we’re not fooled, just entertained.

Leslie, I highly doubt that Pinchot’s dying.
The bandana just seems like a really bad way for him to cover-up his thinning hair. The sad thing is that constantly wearing hats or bandanas can cause bald spots.

I totally agree with Melanie on having the walls painted. Today I watch the “Elf Room Interior”. I’ve thought that Bronson looked ill. Is he sick or dyeing of
cancer? I notice Bronson wears a band-an around his head. Once he was
filmed w/out it and Bronson a bold spot above his left ear. Maybe he is losing
his hair due to a illness.????
