Rehab Addict Host Explains Show's Abrupt Removal From HGTV Schedule

'I made the executive decision to shelf the rest of our new shows until fall. I appreciate your support and understanding for the late notice,' Curtis wrote. 'It's just a lot of hours (my hours) to get a show on air and we (my family + me) thought – why are we giving up summer when we have the ability to do this in the fall? Thank you to the powers at be at HGTV that were receptive to our idea. … Without a doubt, I, truly, am beyond happy with this decision as I just spent the day with a phone that was dead and had no worries about it.
'They are airing Lottery Dream Home in my place,' she continued. 'Fun fact, [Lottery Dream Home host] David Bromstad was my pregnancy beach buddy as we were filming and living next to each other in Gulf Shores, Alabama, for Beach Flip. … So, don't be spreading rumors that he replaced me – I chose it.'
Rehab Addict — which began airing on the DIY Network in 2010 before moving to HGTV in 2014 — follows Curtis as she rehabilitates condemned properties and restores them to their former glory. Although Curtis has indicated a Fall 2025 comeback for the series, an exact return date has yet to be shared.
The Rehab Addict reshuffle comes amid recent scheduling upheaval at HGTV: Since late June, the hosts of no fewer than five shows at the cabler — Battle on the Beach, Farmhouse Fixer, Married to Real Estate, Bargain Block and Izzy Does It — have all stated their series won't be returning for additional seasons.
HGTV has not responded to multiple requests for comment on the apparent cancellation spree.

The Challenge Premiere: Cara Maria Sorbello Breaks Down That ‘Wild' First Challenge, Why [Spoiler] Was Eliminated
The Challenge: Vets and New Threats! New threats have officially invaded The Challenge! More from TVLine Destination X Winner Revealed! Grade Season 1 and the Finale Leanne Morgan Tees Up Her Netflix Comedy From EP Chuck Lorre, Reveals How Her Real-Life Husband Feels About TV Hubby Ryan Stiles NBC Reveals Fall Premiere Dates for #OneChicago, SVU and More - Plus, Organized Crime Returns! In the competition series' Season 41 premiere, 16 veterans are each paired with a rookie partner for a rough-and-tumble battle for all the glory. And with most of the early housekeeping having been taken care of in the Day Zero launch special, this episode hurls us directly into the season's first challenge, which sees players diving into a huge mud pit to collect balls worth varying degrees of points. The kicker? Partners are tied together and must move in tandem. 'The hardest part about this type of challenge is just making use of the area that you're in,' two-time winner Cara Maria Sorbello tells TVLine. 'You could be in a muddier area, a drier area. You might have to make your way around. And then you're tied to your partner. So when you're running down, you could be going for one thing, they could be going for the other thing. I thought Jake and I did incredibly well, so I was actually surprised when they counted the balls. I was like, 'What the heck?' I thought we crushed it, and then as soon as I come out and I look at everybody else's baskets and I'm like, 'Holy hell, how did they do this?' I heard people were kicking balls to each other, people were partnering up, so I don't know, it was a wild one. It was tough, but I like that. I like the type of challenges where you have to grind it out.' This season, the Top 8 teams of each challenge will earn and accumulate points. The results of 'Mud Ball Madness' are as follows: Nia and Justin (came in 8th place, earned 1 point), Leroy and Sydney (7th place, 2 points), Ashley and Gabe (6th place, 3 points), Michaela and Will (5th place, 4 points), Olivia and Cedric (4th place, 5 points), Theo and Izzy (3rd place, 6 points), Aviv and Yeremi (2nd place, 7 points) and Bananas and Dee (1st place, 8 points). Bananas and Dee win safety, along with the power to save one team from elimination. As for Rogan and Adrienne, last place sends them directly into to the Arena. TJ flips a coin to determine whether it's going to be a male or female elimination, and unfortunately for Rogan, he's doomed to hit the sand. New threat Justin is then voted in to join him. In 'Intertia,' players must maneuver a large hamster wheel-like contraption along a three-bump track. The first person to get down the track and back wins and stays in the game. But the elimination turns out to be a lot harder than it looks. 'Looking at what this is off the bat, I'm thinking, 'Oh my God, Justin doesn't stand a chance,'' says Sorbello. 'He's a little peanut in this hamster cage. All Rogan has to do is give one hard ram into it and he's a rugby player, you know? Game over. This thing's gonna flop around and he's got this in two seconds. And boy was I wrong!' A totally spent Rogan doesn't have what it takes, and underestimated Cheer vet Justin wins the elimination and his Challenge stripes in one fell swoop. 'It took a really long time. It was really frustrating,' Sorbello continues. 'I know Rogan got gassed because I think Rogan was going for pure brutality and strength, and Justin didn't have that. So he had to be creative. He had gymnastics and he had cheerleading, and he started using a really good strategy and did it just the way it was supposed to be [done], and with a little flair too, to be honest.'

Destination X Winner Revealed! Grade Season 1 and the Finale
Destination X delivered a dramatic Season 1 finale on Tuesday — but did the best contestant win? Let's recap. At the top of the hour, we meet our final three competitors — Rick, Biggy and Peter — for the last time before the field gets narrowed down to two in a high-stakes game of trivia. For Biggy, the challenge brings about the stinging bite of betrayal: He finally learns about Peter and Rick's secret alliance, and the pair use their correct answers to conspire against Biggy in hopes of advancing to the final stage of competition together. More from TVLine Save the Dates: South Park Sets Return, Kelly Clarkson's NBC Series and More NBC Reveals Fall Premiere Dates for #OneChicago, SVU and More - Plus, Organized Crime Returns! America's Got Talent Season 20 Resumes With 'Unreal' Comeback Audition (Exclusive Sneak Peek) Despite Biggy's surprise at the backstabbing from his pal Rick, the man stays in the game until the last possible second. Rick finishes on top, but Biggy and Peter finish out the challenge in a tie. It all comes down to one last tie-breaking question to determine who moves on in the competition: How many islands is Venice made up of? Peter guesses 27, while Biggy guesses 210. The correct answer? 118, meaning Peter inches ahead of Biggy by just one island. (One dadgum island, as Biggy puts it!) Peter and Rick advance in hopes of winning the cash prize, as each must solve a string of rather random geographic riddles. Finally, both men receive three clues to Jeffrey's final Destination X: a $100 bill, an hourglass and a photo of Queen Elizabeth. Peter thinks the money and royalty point toward the Tower of London, home to the Crown Jewels. Rick, on the other hand, connects the mighty Benjamin Franklin with telling time, and guesses Big Ben. In the end, it's Rick who is presented with a briefcase full of $250,000 within the walls of the iconic towering clock, and becomes the Season 1 winner of Destination X. Are you happy to see Rick walk away victorious in the finale? Grade the finale, and Season 1 overall, then sound off in the comments!
