1. Ty's show is complete BS. Tired of the weekly tear-jerker begging they do. yes the bottomline is that some down-on-their-luck family gets a mini-mansion out of the deal by parading their misfortune for the rest of America. of course the real facts are that 20 low-income houses could be built for the same cost. but that wouldn't get ratings from the brain-dead viewing public.

4. Racer, please note there are two people posting using that name. The other is a child who is not taking his medication. He'll soon be using your name just to start some crap. He's also the one who goes around posting the first crap. Just ignore him, school will be back in session soon.

6. The difference between myself and the boy child is that I can push his buttons any time and get a reaction. He can't push mine. which is why I laugh at him. I notice he's multiple posting a lot this morning. He must have borrowed mommy's laptop to go with the desktop.

7. Leave Ty alone. He's doing good things.

8. Ty Pennington made a choice to drive drunk, and he's pleading no contest. The good news is that he's not driving drunk again.

Not every person who drinks is an alcoholic Not every person who frequents the watering holes is an alcoholic. Not every person who frequents the watering holes in Billings, Montana while there on a job is an alcoholic. It will remain to be seen whether he is or isn't, but the bottom line is that right now, he has every right as an adult to frequent bars and drink. But no one has a right to DRINK AND DRIVE. He's learned his lesson on that one, I think.

I'm glad he called in and confronted the DJ. Now if he would have only asked the DJ to say, "Big Jay, you are a jackass," my day would have been made.

11. i had no idea he was an alchy and a coke head till i heard the story break out... i'm really suprised how little air time this has gotten tho.
all makes sense how he's such a crazy freak on the show. even back on Trading Places. he's all doped up. but as such the "Christian thing to do" for the tv show is sweep this story under the rug cause "we" wouldn't want the pretty families who glue their eyes to extreme make over on sundays nights and go " there's the guy on drugs"

too much ?

12. If anyone cares.. TY was at the watering holes trying to drum up support / donations for the project. I'm from Billings and the town was a little less than generous when it came to making donations for the project.

WOW.. I don't understand why this is such Scandalous News! EEEK!

13. I JUST LOVE HOME-MAKEVER AND I LOVE TY AND ALL THE OTHERS. I THINK THEY ARE GREAT THE ENTIRE TEAM. SO HE GOT A DUI, HE WAS MAN ENOUGH TO SAY HE WAS DEEPLY SORRY AND IT WAS SOMETHING HE WOULDN'T EVER DO AGAIN.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE CRYING ON THE SHOW? IS IT HUMAN EMOTIONS THAT GET TO PEOPLE? THATS THE PROBLEM NOW A DAYS, PEOPLE HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LIFE,LOVE OR RESPECT.
KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOING TY,I JUST LOVE YA AND LOVE THE SHOW AND THE OTHERS.
GOD BLESS FOR MAKING DREAMS BECOME A REALITY AND KEEP THOSE TEARS COMING ALL OF YOU,IT SHOWS YOU'VE GOT A HEART.
MAKEOVER MAKES MY SUNDAY'S!

14. It's true! I'm from Billings. I was there. The television show invaded our town and our bars.
Ty was quite the news that week. He and his alleged girlfriend were seen around town. They asked all of our local business owners for donations of furniture, building materials and food for their crews all with the guise that we will be helping the Carter family. Then when we show up with the hope of meeting the face of the show, he is unavailable, (we actually saw him lying in the sun by his trailer) We volunteered the next day and saw Ty on the phone. Sorry ladies, He's really not that hot in person.

15. Wow, an American that does good and still gets negative press. He does more tohelp people than a conservative preacher! Sad how some will still believe the rumors in the media. People who have not lifted a finger to help another human being will call Ty a jackass. By the way, give the whole freakin' city a makeover. Isnt Billings one big white trash trailor park?
