I can’t decide if she’s being disingenuous by saying “Big Fish” is her all-time favorite movie, or if it really is, in which case none of the other towns that applied for this show had a scintilla of a chance of being chosen.
Love Ben's big burley beard, & his brother's beard…
Wow!!! Wonderful!! Inspiring and uplifting!!
Makes me sick to sit down and watch this amazing story with all the wonderful people who made it happen..only to read negative comments! Really?! Smh
Small Town America has been looked down on by the big city liberal elites that don't go to church or believe in the greatness of America… I'd love to see LA, NY, Chicago, and other huge cities ruled by elites fall apart.. (yes.. I have a negative view of the big cities and those that run them).

This is the type of show you end up watching after hitting the bong too much
after watching a couple of these episodes…one thought…they usually never really show or talk about the neighborhood. i know from buying a few homes myself, that the neighborhood is the the #1 important consideration on your home buy list. everything else can be fixed, but you cant change the neighborhood by buying 1 house there. when i see BADLY overgrown yards & houses in really poor condition, im pretty sure you can assume this is a neighborhood that has been neglected, which probably has some crime & some sketchy neighbors.
where i live if a neighbor is selling a home & the lawn gets overgrown for a few months, the community is knocking on the door asking if someone needs help, we help them, & if its just neglect, then the town council gets involved.
i wonder how many other houses they do on this show that have other homes on the block that are in poor condition…makes me wary.
Two sets of my 3rd g-grandparents came from the Wetumpka area. I'll definitely have to put it on my bucket list to visit there.
I love Erin and Ben. They are Awesome!!
That river is crying out for a river walk, maybe one on both sides of the river. If the river is the town's greatest asset, as many said in this series, why not capitalize on it even more. Develop, over time and with fed help, maybe a mile-long river walk for pedestrians and cyclists on both shores, connected by the bridge, with little parks and pop-up art and food shops that overlook the river below. It could drive a lot of tourism and boost local commerce enormously. Think of the highly developed river walk in San Antonio or the more pared-down walk and bridge over the Hudson River north of NYC. Or manage the whole thing like a big public park run by the city, county, or state, like Shoreline Lake Park south of San Francisco in Mountain View, California, with its golf course, boat rentals, walking and biking trails, Victorian museum and casual restaurant. In development and investment, it's well known that a healthy town ecosystem with amenities like the new ones Ben and Erin have gifted Wetumpka and more (like a river walk) attracts great residents and businesses. After all, an alluring ecosystem is what attracted Google to Mountain View. Best of luck to this little town that could. It seems a better future is waiting.
This show on TV has been fantastic! Very well edited, and inspiring. Now we're watching the last show of the series, and the commercials are relentless, wall-to-wall boredom. Someone at HGTV really blew the end of this series, which was such a good run. For crying out loud, packing that many commercials in every three minutes is just ridiculous. HGTV has ruined a wonderful program series–again.
I like Laurel Ms better.because I was born there.
