Extreme Makeover: Home Edition/YMMV


 * Funny Moments: Believe it or not, this show has its share. Chances are if Paul DiMeo is on the build team, there's going to be some of these, such as the time he turned a Dr. Seuss book into Green Eggs and Large Ham.
 * Heartwarming Moments: The whole point of the show is to invoke the warm and fuzzies.
 * Moment of Awesome:
 * The first-season episode featuring the Woslum family, where the team had a special assistant...revealed at the end to be the family's father, who was on active duty in Iraq. They'd brought him home just to do the show.
 * Oftentimes when the old houses are destroyed. The Latif Family stands out; they used fireworks!
 * The Anderson family, who are most, if not all, visually-impaired and couldn't see the demolition. So they used everything from a jackhammer, a bulldozer, a chainsaw to a bomb squad with concussion grenades to make enough noise.
 * The Mattingly Family. They moved the old, small trailer-house to a monster-truck arena, and had the Monster Trucks destroy the house.
 * The Gomez Family. The family received, among other things, (flavored!) oxygen to cope with the eldest child's blood disorder. He also got lifetime season tickets for Real Salt Lake.
 * The McPhail family. Due to the oldest son's fascination with volcanoes, they basically turned the house into one.
 * The series finale. The place? Joplin, Missouri. The challenge? Build seven homes for seven families in a community devastated by a tornado in the seven day limit. They succeeded.
 * More Popular Spinoff:
 * Does anyone even remember that there was an Extreme Makeover non-home edition anymore?
 * Especially in Britain, where that version didn't air, or at least wasn't promoted to anywhere near the same extent.
 * Title Confusion: Also unofficially known as Extreme Home Makeover and referred to as such by some fans and media, and even by ABC affiliates themselves who promote the show.
