Actress and Comedian Retta to Tour More Hideous Homes in New Season of UGLIEST HOUSE IN AMERICA Premiering on HGTV Monday, April 22, at 9 and 9:30 p.m. ET/PT

WHAT: Ugliest House in America 

WHERE/WHEN: Season five premieres Monday, April 22, at 9 and 9:30 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV and will be available to stream the same day and time on Max®. 

WHO: Ugliest House in America — hosted by Retta, a home design enthusiast, and a comedian and actress known for her roles in Parks and Recreation and Good Girls — attracted over 8.3 million viewers to its previous run. During the new six-episode season, Retta will once again go cross-country to visit 15 horrendous homes nominated by their owners and share her hilarious hot takes of the stunningly bad designs, cringe-worthy layouts and sorely outdated styles. Based on its ugly appearance, poor functionality and hideous design choices, one house will be crowned the “ugliest house in America” by HGTV, and the network will award its owners a showstopping $150,000 renovation completed by Alison Victoria, one of its top stars, during a special one-hour finale episode. 

In each episode, Retta will tour three homes where she shares her unfiltered reactions to all sorts of hair-raising designs from decades old wall-to-wall pink carpeting and elaborate bathroom tiles and chandeliers to homes with multiple non-functioning kitchens and tanks designed to house baby alligators. Throughout the season, Retta will see the best of the worst across the U.S. and help a lucky homeowner transform their unsightly house into a stunner. 

Ugliest House in America is produced by Big Fish Entertainment.
