tsmith417 I love this show but I don't think I've ever seen an entire episode because every time they give a cleaning tip I have to jump up and try it, and every time they show someone dusting under the bed or around the ceiling I go running for my Swiffer.Seriously, though, what I really like about this show is that the homeowners are involved in the cleaning process and are shown how to clean properly, and then are given information about the nasty little bugs and germs that they've been living with due to their sheer laziness, and have you ever noticed that a good percentage of the homeowners are suffering from respiratory ailments that are easily cured or mitigated by nothing more complicated than a weekly dose of housecleaning? I also appreciate that the homeowners are not rewarded for their laziness and filthy living habits, as they are in similar American versions of this show, with new furniture and the services of a professional interior designer; all these people ever get is what they had to begin with, only cleaner.I would love for this or any "clean-up" show to go back not two weeks later, but one year later, to see if anything they were told sunk in and if they did indeed change their way of life. Unfortunately I fear that with some of these people it's a little bit more than just not wanting to clean or not knowing how to clean; that there are underlying psychological problems that are not, and really cannot be addressed.I know more than a few people here in the good ole US-of-A who could benefit from a visit from Kim and Aggie, but you'll have to excuse me now, because I just noticed a crumb on the floor that needs to be dealt with.
neildollar This show isn't for everyone; there are, for the most part, endings to the episodes that will seem similar to others. In fact, most endings are the same. But the show is a rarity--two interesting ladies who, from week to week, go into interesting situations and make things right. It need not get any more complex than that. Kim and Aggie are smart, pretty and funny and their personalities come through nicely. In short, it's 30 minutes that the whole family can safely watch that won't insult anyone's intelligence. If you're in search of something in a more dramatic and amusing genre, try Monk. Otherwise, this is as good as a lot of TV gets.
general-melchett "How Clean is your House?" lets us look at some of the filthiest houses in Britain - and the boneheads inside them who haven't bothered to keep them clean. This is essentially a humiliation for the people who live in the filthy houses presented every week, and a warning to people who also live in houses as filthy as the ones we see - be warned, you could be nationally humiliated...Though it is fun to watch, full of disgusting imagery and information (crusty brown donuts around the toilet bowl, anyone?) and Kim and Aggie's constant changing of many characters, this show is so damn predictable that you feel insulted. Every episode - you know how it's going to end - Kim and Aggie are going to clean the house up and "they all lived happily ever after". Nobody featured on the show seems to rebel against Kim and Aggie - could this all be a studio-filmed, pre-written never-ending series with actors? This is what ruins "How Clean is your House?" so much, and is also the reason why it will never get a DVD release.On the whole, this show never passes on the gross-outs and general disorder, though there really is little else on offer. It would be much better if it had a variety of different outcomes - could we have some people who will never change, or people who drive K&A out of their house? 5/10
Jackson Booth-Millard This isn't rebuilding your house, it's cleaning it. Kim Woodburn and Aggie MacKenzie are two brave women who specialise in cleaning the grease and muck out of peoples houses. Sometimes it can be pretty disturbing seeing what people are like in their houses and what sort of mess they leave. They've had rotten eggs in a ice-covered fridges, mouldy bread, cobwebs, poo-filled dog and cat trays, bird poo-covered floors, hair-covered beds and sofas, chewing gum stuck everywhere, fatal looking food left over and many ghoulish and gross things. Kim is the cleaning expert who helps the "victims" to clean up, Aggie is the bacteria expert who examines samples from various rooms to see if there is a chance of their health being at risk. Luckily when Kim and Aggie arrive, it always has a happy ending and the person is astonished with what their clean house looks like compared to before. Kim and Aggy have even done it in America, their just as bad as us! It was number 6 on The 100 Greatest TV Treats 2003. Very good!
