Every Episode of This Old House, ever.

So, This Old House is practically a religion at my house. My wife refers to Norm Abram as “Uncle Norm”. You could imagine how excited we were when we found out they released the entire catalog of shows as part of a paid ‘insider’ deal. It’s in beta at the moment, so that means it doesn’t cost anything. It doesn’t even require a credit card to register for it, and you get a free Silva Construction T-shirt.

It includes all the past episodes dating back to 1979 and all the This Old House magazines, too. After the program gets going, it’s apparently $6.95 a month. When I registered, I got the message that I got a year free for registering during the beta period.

Both Kate and I registered last night separately, so we’ll see if we get two shirts.

I’ve been trying to locate the older episodes for years, with little success. I found a few of them from the 80s, but the quality was pretty brutal. Considering it’s a show about construction details, quality that was near unwatchable was kind of a downer.

I watched the premier episode last night from 1979. I was born in 1979, no doubt just so I could watch this show. They must have remastered them or something, because the quality is probably better than when it originally aired. You can see every flake of lead based paint AND Bob Vila’s luxurious hair. Talk about a win.

I haven’t checked out any of the magazines yet, because I was getting technical errors when I tried (hey, it IS in beta). When they get that sorted though, I am willing to get a dedicated tablet to load them into and permanently install in my bathroom. I’ll have reading material until I die.

If you’re into this rehab classic, definitely check it out.

PS – This isn’t an affiliate link, I’m not selling this. I just think it’s awesome and I’m sharing it.
