You won't be disappointed!

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Really great show. The tree houses are pretty amazing. Pete seems like a great guy with a great energy about him. Some other reviewers have commented on his corny sense of humor and terrible jokes but, because he's such a nice guy, he can get away with it and it makes it charming. Not a lot of people can pull that off! I think it's just an overall 'feel good' show that leaves me with a good feeling.

As far as the production of the show, I have no complaint with it other than my general refusal to watch nearly all "reality" TV featuring no-talent nitwits performing mundane tasks in front of a camera for an audience of people who have no lives to live.As for the premise of the show, I have big problems with it. I'm an old guy, having been around a long time and have seen a lot. One of the things I saw back in the 60s and 70s were real tree-houses that real people lived in. No, not quarter million dollar redwood, oiled teak and triple-pane glass fantasy "clubhouses" with secret doors, an observation dome and ADA-approved access ramps, but salvaged wood, metal and glass and concrete homemade structures that sheltered people from the elements and provided a safe place to live. AND the tree-houses were built by the residents themselves,. They scraped together whatever they could, poured the concrete, cut the wood (often with a chainsaw because they had no power), hammered the nails, and finished they job the best way they could with what they had. Maybe some friends pitched in to help and in return got some help back on their next project. But NONE of them ever hired any professional carpenters, riggers, or cabinetmakers to do the job for them. They couldn't afford it.And that is my problem. Young upscale, yuppie losers hiring professionals to build them a fantasy tree-house is just all wrong. Having your main home built by contractors is OK. Unless you are really skilled and have more time than money, a contractor home makes sense. But you are supposed to build a tree-house yourself. Hiring a pro to do one for you is like hiring someone else to whittle you a wooden whistle, do a crossword puzzle for you or paying someone to play hopscotch in your kid's place. With people out of work, having to share housing or living on the streets, there is something really wrong with professional tree-houses. As for the guy with the tree-house company, I can't blame him if there is a whole country full of rich dipsticks who want something quaint and charming cranked out for them that they lack the class to do for themselves. If he can make an honest buck doing carpentry, good for him. But putting it on TV is where I draw the line. I don't need to be reminded about these vacuous morons and their excessive lifestyles. So the answer is obviously to not watch the show and beyond the three episodes that I wasted my life on, I don't watch it. One star is generous of me.

Absolutely love this program! I love the fact that Pete is always excited building treehouses. You can see he obviously LOVES his job! I only WISH I could live in one. It would be my ultimate fantasy come true!!!! I love watching him pick the perfect tree...he even loves the trees!!! I wonder what the cost is...but since I'll never be able to afford one...I guess that doesn't matter. I'll just continue watching and dreaming. I wonder...if you have dogs..how would they get to the treehouse? Oh, I guess those beautiful bridges would work...as long as the dog isn't to afraid if it moves :) ...that's all I would need....my dog falling out of a tree house...wonder if their health insurance would cover that :)

I am giving this a 3 purely because of the craftsmanship of the treehouses, they are very good and you cant take that away from the guy.... But we don't need yet another American TV show prattling on about the back storys of non important people.The backstory nonsense isn't as bad as say American Idol or the x factor, but its on par with American guns on Discovery.Why try to give us stupid drama? Just show the product!!!!And yeah OK, i get that people have passion about their desired industry but the main guy is just way too cornball to be taken seriously.I would avoid the show and browse the internet instead if you want to get your fix for treehouses.
