HGTV’s Jenny Marrs Reacts to Viewer Complaints About This Week’s ‘Fixer to Fabulous’
A new episode of Fixer to Fabulous aired on HGTV as planned on Tuesday, February 25, this week, but viewers who recorded the show to watch it at a later time were faced with some problems. Host Jenny Marrs found her social media flooded with messages about how the episode didn’t record, and she responded to the complaints on her Instagram Story.
“Thanks for letting me know that a lot of y’all didn’t see this week’s episode because it didn’t record,” she shared. “I have no control over that issue BUT I have reported this to the network so they can look into what happened! I’m so sorry this was such a good one. I really hope it becomes available for you to watch.”
She also pointed out that the show can be streamed on Discovery+ and Max, and revealed that’s where she watched the episode herself.

About an hour later, she did a Q&A on her Instagram and addressed the situation again. “I know there was an issue with this week’s episode not recording on some DVR’s. There was a blip with some service providers – the network is aware and working to get this resolved,” she shared.
Season 6, Episode 12, featured Marrs and her husband, Dave Marrs, helping to repair and renovate a young family’s home after it was destroyed by tornadoes in May 2024. “My goodness, this was emotional one. Our community suffered immense loss last May when tornadoes touched down all across town in the middle of the night. At the time, we had already been planning to renovate Shelly and Alexa’s home (that had belonged to Shelly’s parents – Alexa’s grandparents) but the scope of work changed drastically after the storm,” Marrs shared.
She continued, “This home held countless family memories and our job was to restore what had been lost and to bring back life and joy and light. It was a beautiful, tearful reveal day. Lots of hugs and reminiscing took place. And, it felt so good to give this well-loved home back to this beautiful mother-daughter duo.”

To the person that complained that Jenny acted like a spoiled American in an Italian show, are you European or have you traveled there? As a younger adult who has traveled abroad to live for 3 years for my first time I think we all are that way. It is a very big difference for us. I critiqued everything. But I did get over it. I really realized my own selfishness after moving back to the states. We are spoiled here in the USA. It is a great experience that all of us need to experience. I truly miss Germany and the people whom became my family. No I was not an exchange student. And our landlords treated us just like their own family. My first child was born there. I wouldn’t change this spoiled American’s experience for anything. And keep in mind this was 1979 I am speaking of. No cell phones, American TV or radio channels, all was different and difficult but forever life changing.

I noticed you have had some terrible weather - Since you have so many farm animals, where do they all go away from all this cold and snow? Never saw a barn for the sheep, lamas or donkey. I am an animal lover as you probably already guessed.

I think Jenny Mars doesn't always get a good name, because on the series, she always looks crabby and not a hugger. She seems cold.. But, I do know you have bulging disc's in your back as I do. I also have unbelievable pain every day, I look crabby too! Just remember Jenny, you know who you are & what you are!!! And NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU!!!! I DO LIKE YOU!!! And your MARVELOUS AT WHAT YOU DO!!!! HUGS & KISSES!!!!

I don’t watch anymore after seeing Jenny act like a spoiled American when they filmed in Italy. I think she’s fake and entitled.
