    EXCLUSIVE : The Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin-hosted version of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is officially coming to ABC after the Disney-owned network handed the show a series order.

    It comes nearly a year after ABC revealed that the show was in development with new hosts after its brief dalliance with HGTV.

    Shearer and Teplin created the global lifestyle brand The Home Edit and previously fronted two seasons of Netflix’s Get Organized with the Home Edit.

    Extreme Makeover: Home Edition previously ran on ABC between 2004 and 2012 before being canceled. The Warner Bros. Discovery cable network aired one season of a reboot, hosted by Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson, in 2020.

    The show will now return in the 2024/25 season. It is ABC’s latest unscripted order; Deadline revealed that Shaquille O’Neal and Gina Rodriguez are hosting game show Lucky 13 from exec producer Kevin Bacon last week and it has also renewed a number of summer series including Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, Claim to Fame and Press Your Luck.

    Extreme Makeover: Home Edition will be produced by Endemol Shine North America and Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine, which is part of Candle Media, in association with Walt Disney Television Alternative

    The duo will showcase their organizational skills as they design and tailor home from the inside out. It will showcase “heartwarming” stories, “inspired” volunteers, and “mind-blowing” builds for deserving families who give back to their communities.

    Each episode will see the pair meet a deserving family in need of a new home and they will be assisted by a team of builders and contractors from homebuilder Taylor Morrison.

    Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine acquired The Home Edit in the spring of 2022 after producing the Netflix series.

    Shyam Balsé, an exec producer on series including Wipeout and MasterChef , will serve as showrunner. He will exec produce alongside Sharon Levy and Michael Heyerman from Endemol Shine North America; Reese Witherspoon, Sara Rea and Cassie Lambert Scalettar from Hello Sunshine, and Molly Sims and her production banner Something Happy Productions.
