As the show's host, Davis introduces the participants to viewers at the beginning of each episode, explaining their relationship to each other and pointing out the design challenges for the rooms that will undergo transformation.
She then takes viewers through the highlights of the renovation, focusing not only on the physical changes to the room but also on the emotional discomfort the participants feel as they wonder how their neighbors will react to their work and what the redesigned room in their own house will look like. When needed, Davis even pitches in with the manual labor. She told Huisking, "I'm percent invested in what the designers want and what the homeowners are feeling.
When I'm not on camera, I'm having lunch with the homeowners, hearing about their children, helping them paint, trying to make them as relaxed as possible. The high point of each episode is what's known as the "reveal," when the homeowners are guided, eyes shut, to the newly redesigned room in their home to see what their neighbors have done. Reactions range from joy to puzzlement to downright horror, with some homeowners breaking down in tears when they see the changes made to their room.
While she knows some television viewers especially enjoy the homeowners' negative reactions, Davis is too personally involved in each renovation experience to derive pleasure from these occasions. I hate it. It's terribly awkward and sad. In the book Davis describes the mishaps and blunders that sometimes occur off-camera.
She recounts the adventures she has had with the cast and crew during their travels, and inserts tidbits about the personalities of the designers and others who work on the show. Her recollections include some of the more memorable homeowner reactions of the season, including the Las Vegas resident who refused to speak to her neighbors after seeing the color they had chosen to paint her room.
