'Extreme Makeover' house faces foreclosure More than 1,800 people showed up to help ABC's "Extreme Makeover" team demolish a family's decrepit home and replace it with a sparkling, four-bedroom mini-mansion in 2005.
Three years later, the reality TV show's most ambitious project at the time has become the latest victim of the foreclosure crisis.
I think this foreclosure news item is a distant second to the Ed "I still have checks left" McMahon situation. It is also further evidence that "feel good" TV charity is a good way to shovel money into a furnace.
