Mark Burnett has happened to Design Star. !!!!!!. The biggest mistake that HGTV has ever made. He has not idea about his audience, is trying to recreate American Idol. with Simon, this time Vern. and you can see how this program is turning out. Disastrous. !!!!
Le't get back to the beginning. HGTV, this time you blew it. don't compound the mistake by not changing the producers and format.

You are abosolutely correct. But this show has become the Survivor, American Idol series for HGTV. Mr. Burnett, has completely shown no knowledge of the audience for this show. The rudeness that Vern has displayed I can see the similarities of the show American Idol, survivor etc.
HGTV you had a great ide for a show, this year you have blundered with Mark Burnett. Listen to your audience, don't be blinded by this man previous successes. The audiences are different, the expectations are different. Vulgarity and rudeness have no place in this show.

I want to congratulate David on his new show in Miami, I can see that he is growing into a
great designer of upper and high end rooms. The colors are magnificent, and what I hope that everyone remembers, that Miami, especially South Beach all of those colors are what you see and want to have.
I can see that he knows where to go to get whatever he needs, I am writting down the names of the different places that I could be interested in going.
I am sure that if he was in the Mid West, his designs would be completely different. Something to keep in mind.
Great job David!!!!!. I know that you can write your own ticket as a designer.

I will have to agree, that it is difficult to see the designer's abilities, in the episodes. At least on the first one, we were able to see their individual styles, whether we liked them or not.
But now, again, we are seeing the team competition. and It doesn't do it for me. We are forgetting that all of them are by design individualists, and this is a competition. They are there to beat the rest of them, not to become chummy with them.
A designer knows that when they design a room for a client, they are not going to have a Nina, a Tara or anyone else, raining on their parade.
Therefore, they can execute the design based on what the client wants. Even if any of them win the show, They will not have to design with each other. They will have a crew, and execute their own designs.
I feel that it is a mirage, trying to identify team spirit under these circumstances.
Let them have projecs and their individual designs, and let the best designer win.

At this point in time I am withholding my judgement. For me Dan's design is a "safe " design, something that yourself, or Candance or Vern or Gen could have done. Dan is to me "samo, samo" I feel that what the judges saw was the difference, the style, yes very edgy, but very much outside the box. I will agree that including me, who happens to like "safe" designs, Antonio will be a different designer, I will have to agree that his designes bring out the gutural reaction that we are seeing. And that is good. That is why I say, I will withhold my judgement,until I see what Antonio has to offer. Hopefully, is different than all of you.

5000 for the Pergola that they had in that patio, is such a ridiculous amount that I gives me the impression of Dan's obviously lack of experience as a designer. Anyone can tell you that Pergolas varie in size, and It depends a lot on what they have to offer. The one that they put in the yard was much too expensive. As a designer he should have known that.

And according to you there is nothing wrong with a 5000 pergola? obviously you know very little about the price of woods, and labor costs.

I am sorry that you cannot see what many are seing. On DS and on HGTV there is only one designer that has as his signature paintings that he provides with his designs. I have not seen any other designer in any other show do that, and I am sure that most or them if not all of them know or could paint, and provide a painting in their designs. They don't do it, because "that signature" is already taken.
Sorry, taking shirts off and providing paintings is David B signaturel and by the way. Dan giggles, Davif B laughs. believe me, that is a great difference.

I don't know how I have given the impression that I don't like David B. He is the only designer that has come out of Design Star. and in the few years that we have seen his show, He has grown to become a first class designer.
