Most posters have basically covered my view except for this: when the show 1st started ABC merely remodeled or expanded a residence that wasn't suitable. Along the way, the "mansion" concept grew and now the homes are likely unaffordable for many of the recipients. Though maybe not as good for ratings, I think that ABC should continue the show but scale the houses down to something realistic that people can manage (and AFFORD). If I were one of the 1800 volunteers on this job, I would be hopping mad as well.
