Good news for the HGTV reality show Ugliest House in America’s fans! The show is coming with its fifth season.

The show is set to premiere on April 22, 2024, with many more horrendous houses and surprising transformations.

Ugliest House in America gained popularity due to its extremely unique concept of transforming unconventional and unattractive homes into beautiful spaces. Furthermore, the host adds humor to the mix, making it an engaging and enjoyable program.

The HGTV network announced the release of the newest season on March 20 through its official channels. As per the announcement, the current season will be hosted by designer and comedian Retta.

The fifth season will have six episodes, during which Retta travels across the country to find 15 homes that are deemed horrendous. HGTV star Alison Victoria will put her magic hand to use.

HGTV is planning to release the new episodes back-to-back over three consecutive weeks, each episode estimated to be around half an hour. The season will also have a one-hour finale at the end just like other seasons.

Each episode will feature three horrendous homes that Retta talks about and gives her interesting and hilarious comments. Among the three, the one with the worst rating will receive a $150,000 renovation money.

The renovation, however, will be managed by Victoria, and the homeowners are left with nothing but awe at the amazing transformations. Victoria is also behind some other famous HGTV shows like Windy City Rehab and Battle on the Beach.

The first season of the series started on January 3, 2022, and they started their home-hunting journey from the Midwest. The first episode of this season featured an underwater sea palace, a former funeral home, and a 1960s throwback, all sounding extremely horrendous.

Ugliest House in America season 2 started on July 24, 2022, and had a good viewership rating. This time, Retta and Victoria visited popular vacation destinations to find the ugliest house for the season.

The finalists for the second season were the Jailhouse Rock located in Larkspur, Colorado, House with No Privacy located in Palm City, Florida, The Linoleum Showroom located in Los Angeles, The Inconvenient Dollhouse located in Willmar and the Unwelcome to the Terrordome in High Rolls.

Ultimately, The House with No Privacy took the crown for season 2 and took the $150,000 renovation prize. The second season ended on August 14, 2022.

After 5 months of break, season 3 premiered on January 6, 2023. There were a total of six episodes with five finalists (The Patchwork Opossum Pad, The House on Gollum’s Hill, The Crystal Death Trap, House of the Gilded Angel, and The Rocky Woody Moose Lodge.

Out of them, Retta chose the Penny for Your Thoughts/Disco Dome Home as the winner of the season. This house was a white dome-shaped one with an interior consisting of cobblestones, disco balls, and a carpeted spiral staircase.

The fourth season of the show ended on September 4, 2023. Throughout the seasons, the show has shown some peculiar and interesting houses and gathered fans. Therefore, fans are anticipating the fifth season to be equally interesting.

Fans reactions to ‘Ugliest House in America’

The Ugliest House in America has been getting a lot of attention from its viewers. While many are intrigued by the houses shown in the show, some are also criticizing the show for various reasons.

Fans have created several threads on Reddit talking about how Retta and Victoria do not choose the most peculiar houses but rather choose houses that are easy to renovate.

One fan wrote, “I don’t get it!! These houses aren’t that bad they’re just weird AF. They should not make them compete to renovate, they renovate way better houses like any other show and these people have to compete to get recognition and renovations? Fixer Upper has renovated houses full of garbage and dog, cat, and rat feces but ya’ll can’t help these families whose blueprints are just a bit outdated ?”

The comment section below this post was filled with messages like “I just watched the Southwest episode. The one in Vegas they called a museum…. the guy said he embraced it and has been adding to it. So obviously he isn’t looking for actual renovation. Why not just do a show called “weirdo houses of the Us” and stop with the fakery”

Although the show has a very unique concept that attracts viewers, there have still been negative reviews talking about the process of the show. We hope the producers have taken note of the feedback and will release much fun content in the fifth season.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson to Star in Robert Eggers' Next Film ‘Werwulf’

After haunting audiences with Nosferatu, Aaron Taylor-Johnson is teaming up once again with director Robert Eggers. This time for a werewolf horror titled Werwulf. The film is already building buzz ahead of its Christmas Day 2026 release, and it may get even hotter with Nosferatu lead Lily-Rose Depp in talks to join the cast.

Eggers will direct from a script he co-wrote with Sjón, his collaborator on The Northman. With Focus Features backing the project, and Working Title producing, Werwulf looks to carry the eerie, mythic tone Eggers is known for — only now under the full moon.

Their last outing, Nosferatu, was a breakout hit, raking in $181 million worldwide and marking a massive return for stylized gothic horror. Taylor-Johnson played Friedrich Harding, a vampire skeptic, while Depp portrayed Ellen, the object of Count Orlok’s obsession.

With werewolves now in his sights, Eggers’ next nightmare seems poised to bite — and Taylor-Johnson is clearly ready to howl.

‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Roars Into Box Office Success

Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest installment in the dinosaur saga, has stomped its way to box office glory. Directed by Gareth Edwards and co-written by Jurassic Park veteran David Koepp, the film premiered on June 17 in London and hit U.S. theaters on July 2. It has already grossed over $334 million globally against a reported budget of $180 million.

This fresh reboot stars Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali in leading roles, supported by Jonathan Bailey, Ed Skrein, and Rupert Friend. The film shifts slightly from the earlier World trilogy tone, leaning into sci-fi thrills and a suspenseful, character-driven story.

Critics have been split. While some praise the visual effects and performances, others say it doesn’t quite recapture the awe of Spielberg’s original. Still, many fans agree that Rebirth is a major improvement over the previous film, Dominion, and a step in the right direction for the franchise.

With its strong performance, Universal is now reportedly developing spin-offs and planning to expand the Jurassic universe further. After ten films and over three decades of dino-dominance, it seems audiences still aren’t done with the thrill of prehistoric adventure.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially underway, and the cast lineup is as iconic as fans hoped. Meryl Streep returns as the icy editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, joined once again by Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci — reprising their roles nearly two decades after the 2006 original became a cultural classic.

But the sequel isn’t just about the old guard. It’s adding new faces to the high-fashion chaos, including Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, and Bridgerton star Simone Ashley. Acclaimed actor and director Kenneth Branagh will also appear as Miranda’s husband — a character that’s expected to shake up the dynamics at Runway Magazine.

Plot details are still under wraps, but the film is scheduled to release on May 1, 2026. It’s expected to explore the evolving world of fashion media while diving deeper into Miranda’s personal life and Andy Sachs’ next chapter. Notably missing is Adrian Grenier, who played Andy’s boyfriend Nate in the original. Sources say his character won’t return for the sequel.

With a mix of nostalgia and fresh energy, The Devil Wears Prada 2 promises to deliver sharp dialogue, high fashion, and the kind of dramatic flair only Miranda Priestly can serve.
