What channel? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/usflag.gif" alt="" />

HGTV

thanks for the heads-up

Not on HGTV in Canada! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />not nice.

I checked on that for you and they haven't starting showing season 6 in Canada yet. No word on when they will start.

Are Bill and Ally TTOLers? Long Islanders moving to SXM and it's not us!

So, where was that first place? I tuned in a few minutes late and missed the beginning of the show.

In Phillipsburg on Great Bay

Thanks Wilsonck for checking. I'll keep an eye out for it.

It was called the "ocean" I think. Looked like 6 or 8 units.I can't believe they bought at the Yacht Club and don't need a car.

OK, thanks.

Nah, that was BS. Anyone that lives on SXM needs a car..

When he said " just pulled out of the driveway" on the boat we had a good chuckle. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Rofl.gif" alt="" />

these people on the show are my neighbors...I have other neighbors who winter in SXM and have never owned a car. They use their dingy and if necessary, rent a car...

OK, I'm surprised. Are the people from the show living on SXM year round?

Another episode featuring SXM is airing on October 2.

I watched the show and commented to my spouse about the buyers desire not to have a car. Seems ludicrous that someone living on the island (whether part-time of full time) wouldn't want or need a car. True the property they bought was close to shops and restaurants but without a car they will have difficulty getting "out and about the island". If they are only on SXM part-time they will probably end up renting a car for some or all of their stay. If they live on SXM full time I'd be willing to bet they'd buy a car.

I am sure the car part was just BS. These episodes are filmed about a year before air date. I do know that one of the other Sxm episode couples actually lived on the island for almost a year before they even filmed the episode. They live in their home, and then they pretend to be interested in the others. It's all scripted. It still was fun to see some new places on the show. The other laugher was the price. 150 thousand less than asking price? Without a counter? That just doesn't happen!

the condo was way overpriced...although it did include a boat slip and was a 3 bedroom. My neighbors had their 2 bedroom for sale with Roger for $399,000

Was one of the last scenes filmed at The Charter House?

I wondered the same thing

I am trying to find this episode On Demand, does anyone who DVR'd it know the episode number, or where in the states the couple are from?

I think they're from Long Island.

They said they were from LI

thanks, I really need the episode to find it on On Demand

It is season 6 episode 1. Have not been able to find a total episode number list. I think On Demand usually has a week delay for new episodes, although that may be carrier dependent.

Sure looked like it was there ...we had that same view when we dined at Saratoga's which was the restaurant prior to what is there now.

We sold our 2 bedroom for much more than that!
10 years ago. No boat slip.
Was this unit in Phase 2?
