The Resume

    Born in United States

    Joanna (Stevens) Gaines (April 19, 1978- ), Born in Kansas
    Reside in Waco, Texas
    Husband-and-wife owners of Magnolia Homes, a home renovating business
    Hosts of the HGTV show 'Fixer Upper'

Why they might be annoying:

    Another house-flipping show!
    You can create a drinking game for the number of times they use and mention 'shiplap.'
    They received criticism for belonging to a church that is against gay marriage and advocates conversion therapy.
    A lawsuit claimed that Chip had bought interest from former Magnolia shareholders for cheap, without disclosing plans that 'Fixer Upper' was in the works.
    Though the finished 'fixer uppers' are decorated with new furniture, their clients don't actually get to keep the furniture.
    Many homes renovated for the show were eventually rented out with jacked-up pricing.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Joanna had television experience before 'Fixer Upper,' starring in ads for her dad's tire business.
    Chip's pick-up line to Joanna, 'Hey, you're the girl in the commercials!' was somehow successful.
    Chip is known for having a goofy personality, on-screen and off.
    They bought a property with abandoned silos in downtown Waco and converted it to their offices and a popular retail attraction.
    They made Waco famous for something other than David Koresh or Baylor University athlete scandals.
