‘Rock the Block’ Fans Shocked After Show Announces Season 6 Winner
The veterans vs. rookies season of HGTV‘s Rock the Block has concluded, and fans are shocked by the Season 6 winner.
Jonathan Scott from Property Brothers evaluated the teams’ performances in the finale that aired on Monday, May 27. Competing for the grand prize were New Kids on the Block brothers Jonathan and Jordan Knight, Alison Victoria from Windy City Rehab and Michel Smith Boyd from , Chelsea and Cole DeBoer from Down Home Fab, and Tristyn and Kamohai Kalama from Renovation Aloha. The finale challenge required the contestants to use their remaining budgets to renovate the exterior of the houses they’ve been renovating this season. The team whose designs contributed to the highest appraisal value was declared the winner, and there was just a $35,000 difference between first and second place.
The teams were each given identical houses to begin at the season’s start, coming in at $750,000 each. Each team received a $250,000 budget, plus an additional $50,000 bonus. The winning appraisal was $1.4 million. The winning team was Alison and Michel, as host Ty Pennington announced in a drone show at the end of the episode. The victory made Alison cry.
“We worked so hard. Third time’s a charm, I guess. This was a tough one,” she said. “It is the highest honor to win Rock the Block.”
As implied by Victoria’s remark, this isn’t their first time competing on the reality TV show, but it is their first win. It’s an historic moment for Boyd, who is now the first designer to win Rock the Block twice. Rock the Block fans were surprised by their victory, and some were bummed that it wasn’t a rookie team that won.

“I was really surprised about who won. Really hoping and thought it would be one of the rookies,” one fan wrote in the comments section of the show’s finale post (embedded above). “My first choice was Chelsea and Cole. But I also loved the Kalama’s.”
“I thought the DeBoers or the Knights were going to win,” wrote another. “Congrats to Allison and Michel! They all did a great job and I definitely had my favorites. I Love this show!!”
“I think the Rookies had better houses,” one fan said, while another chimed in in support of the winners, saying, “Alison and Michel. Most consistent and creative.”
One fan sensed a divide between Victoria and Boyd. “Really wanted Jon and Jordan or Chelsea and Cole, the most intriguing part was the clear separation of Alison & Michel no hug, no congrats,” they wrote. “The last few episodes they were standing apart and walked separate, interesting.”
“Something feels off…. that house should not have won,” said a skeptical viewer. “It’s almost seems like Alison gave an ultimatum…either I win or I’m not ever coming back. Just my opinion. Even [Michel] said he felt like a rookie team was going to take the win. Disappointing.”
“Was this rigged? Terrible!! The Hawaiian couple should have been the winners,” one viewer asked.
Some still praised the winning pair. “This was the best season yet!!!!!” one wrote.

Sorry. I didn’t think their home was the best. Looking at shipping containers and a yard full of rocks is not appealing. I’d rather have solar panels and fencing. Her design was too specific.

I agree with you completely. Also, the pickleball court in the lower level was terrible. You can't do anything with that but look at it and it looked cheap and out of place.

And…it was right next to the bathtub!! How many times is a pickleball or someone tripping around the stupid tub! So horrible! My wife and I liked Allison’s house the LEAST! Season 6 FAIL

The container was on the far left corner of the house and actually provided privacy from the next-door neighbors. People are looking too deep into this. Trying to make it some kind of conspiracy good grief

I did not like Allison's house at all. It did not feel cohesive. I thought everyone did great and my favorites were the Kamala's. Hope they do it again. It is one of my favorite shows.

I agree,The Kamala's should have one imo.They are awesome dual,Love.Love,Love their show.So true to their heritage and family values.
I will say however I think Jonathan & Jordans home was a close 2nd.

She cheated. Allison said she pulled a favor to the containers. That added the $35,000. If you take the favor out she would have lost

Exactly!!!!! Pulling "Favors" should not be allowed!!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED in this show!!

Does anyone remember that two of the teams put in their own money? Was that “cheating?”

The Hawaiian couple called in a favor to get the solar panels cheaper. They said they did. It was the only way they could afford them

Definitely the wrong team won.
They were last on my list ( and many others from what I’m ready). The count from Hawaii or the brothers should have won!!!!!!!

It was rigged. Allison should not have won. So what she’s been there 3 times. She had the least useful kitchen, etc. House was too specific. Utah is a family state and she does not design that way. This is not Chicago !

-
R
Rigged? Lol I cannot believe people think there's a conspiracy. The appraised value of the house is the bottom line. And bottom line Allison and Michel's house was the one that appraised for the most.

G
I don’t agree. The rookies and the knights were all better. I would buy Chelsea and Cole’s house over all of them.

Thought the Hawaiian couple should have won with the solar panels, and the way they reconfigured the first floor.

I think in Alison’s and Michelle’s house the basement with the ridiculous room that had a so called pickle ball court, cold plunge, and sauna was thrown together and quite frankly ugly and should have eliminated them from the win. I think either one of the “Rookies” homes should have been the winner.

Anyone else but them

The Rookies were far superior to the veterans. It definitely felt rigged for Alison to win. Loved the Kalamas’ house. Give me a break on value added, they added a second kitchen and had solar panels. The other Rookie team geared towards a family with fence in yard. This is Utah with big families. Utah has snow, how often are you going to the greenhouse entertainment space, and no fenced area for the goats. Either one of the Rookies should have won. I have definitely lost interest in future Rock the Block Episodes.

I agree, Allison’s house was very tacky, all the green tile everywhere will go out of style in no time, particularly the kitchen, I would have nightmares in it. I agree with adding color but to make everything green will get old very quickly. I like the show but it is definitely rigged.

I wanted anyone but Alison to win. She's way too conceded. The kamalas were my favorite.

I happen to used to have liked Alison but she lost me forever when she said she looked younger than the other women even though shes oldest. That is gross behavior. Hers and Michel's house should have been last place. I'm still mad.

R
It seemed like it was a joke to me. And what does your hatred for her have to do with the value of their home? Next you'll be wondering why aren't they judging what they're wearing. That's a different show.

I liked the winners house the least. All of that green tile and sink really turned me off. Also the metal container in the yard wasn't attractive.

This show is definitely rigged. there's no way that team had the best house not by a long shot. any of the other 3 teams had a better house than they did. A pickleball court in the house? the hideous green kitchen? and oh my god, the container in the backyard🤮 in Utah.?? Are you freaking kidding me?
Sorry, Ty, but I won't be watching again. Especially not if Allison Victoria is on. Worst season ever, and they're only going to get worse if she continues being on it

I So ok agree she has disagreed with every partner she has had. Needs more time n counseling. Couldn't get along with contractors on her own show. She doesn't represents HGTV n a pleasant lite.
Many other groups make more enjoyable viewing. Been watching channel since Trading Places debuted with Paige & Ty as carpenter.
Get it together & cut out the rotten wood.

R
Rigged? That is just ridiculous. And in case you haven't noticed in many other design shows green has been in for kitchens and baths for quite some time. May not be your personal taste but it doesn't mean that it didn't have the highest value. Personally I thought it was beautiful. The bottom line is is the appraised value of the house at the end of the show. That's it, no conspiracy.
-

O
Not a big fan of green! Thought that was too specific of a choice….if you don’t like it, you’re not going to buy it!

R
Definitely was NOT a fan of the GREEN kitchen, the SMALL ensuite, the PICKLEBALL court in the basement, the NO GRASS back yard and the EYESORE of a container. I mean come on... REALLY????? ALL 3 of the other homes were so MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!! Rock the Block better do a BETTER job next go around!!

R
I agree with everything you said. Watching the show it seemed like they were the rookies. They just didn't have any ideas of bringing value to the house. I don't think putting a storage container in your yard is beneficial in any way. To me. It just makes us look cheap. Their backyard was probably the worst backyard I've seen in any season.

I think Alison expected to win. I like confidence but she is not any better than the other teams. This series is primarily an advertisement for the other series each team hosts. So Alison, get over yourself ! Next time maybe the finals should be judged by potential home buyers. Let’s keep it real Ty.

I think the two rookie houses were better much better who puts a mini pickle ball in the basement and thinks that some big great deal! That took away usable space for a family time, kids, hang out space the backyard was horrendous. Definitely think it was rigged. In that kitchen was ugly. None of the greens matched. It was very buyer specific. I wouldn’t buy a house that had a kitchen. It looked like that the others were so much better.
21 2
-
C
Yes! No one brought up that the greens didn't go together.
-
-
G
Not sure if it was a fair win. Did they take into consideration that some of the teams did not stick to the budget, used favors and some of their own money for a project? That should not have been allowed. To be fair, they all needed to only use the budget given. All judging should always be anonymous to be fair to everyone.
20 3
-
R
Did you notice that every one of the teams used favors? I noticed. It happened.
-
-
C
The winning team’s home wasn’t my favorite. Guessing they won because of the casita? Just curious about the evaluation of the other houses.
16
-
R
That is the one thing I wish they would show. The value of each house and where it placed.

P
I don't agree with the winner of Rock the Block. I felt like the Rookies houses were better.
15
-
R
it was fixed as far as I was concerned. Who would want that thing in their back yard, no grass just rocks, the Hawian couple won hands down. I watch every year now I think I won’t watch anymore. I am surprised the judges would go along with the fix, e. . Lost respect for him also. How could you compare that pickle ball court with that stupid mural.
14
-
O
All the houses were beautifully done and the rookies really rocked the block but in the end it wasn’t about who’s was nicer but who increases the value. Yes it was odd there was no exchange between Allison and Michel but I think Michel’s remark about not underestimating the rookies and how he felt a rookie could win probably set her off
13 1

O
Maybe Alison will finally shut up

True. She was so annoying.

I thought that Allison and Michel cheated by purchasing a cassita which was not part of the original house.It was actually rental property, which was evaluated as such. What happened to the solar energy that was added? Were they disqualified for adding it? The rules are too loose for proper judging. The creative design undercuts the appraisal as the winning home criteria. The price of the home is not what makes a top designer's look and style or love for the house in making it a home. I think that is why fans are disheartened by the results of the show. if I had to choose what couple showed the love of a home's renovations and a message of joyful spirit, I would have chosen Allison and Michel as last place because they pushed hard for the almighty dollar in everything they created. The hawaian couple and the Knight brothers thought about what families would love and so did the other rookie couple too. I actually Loved the Property Brother's evaluations . I think that the realtors were poor judges over their decision, but money did the talking, not loving the home. Do you want to LOVE IT OR LIST IT? Haha Where did that come from? I think the fans were ready to LOVE IT!

It was part of their outdoor space! They were allowed to do whatever they wanted to do to the outdoor space! Everyone's outdoor space added value to their home! The best home did win. Your arguments have to be applied to all of the homes. And you have to realize that it is value add that makes the difference. Things that are attached to the home part of the home and everyone did their design style. The right team won.
-
-
G
Horrible outcome. Fenced in property and solar panels or a pickleball court far outweigh a house that is all green inside with an eyesore of a container sitting in the yard behind an entire yard of gravel. There is no way Allison's house was worth the most.
11 1
-
P
I thought that Kalamas with the solar panels & what all they had done would have won. I was shocked by who won.
10
-
G
Yep Kalamas should have won. I would have been happy with Chelsea and Cole (I mean a fence was key and they could have bought an ugly prefabbed storage container but went with a fence with the money). I even would have been happy with the Knights winning. My mom and I screamed in upset when we saw the winners.
-
-
C
The Knights should have won. Their kitchen was amazing and that bathroom was gorgeous perfection. Alison & Michel's house had that useless 'pickleball court' and that hideous kitchen with ugly greens that didn't even go together. The trashy looking container house added value and that's the only reason they won
10
-
R
I think the show is rigged and the judges definitely choose who they favor. Alison and Michel home was too matchy matchy throughout and it didn’t show a lot of versatility in their design ability. I feel they played it safe by carrying the same look throughout the inside, the arches were overdone and the outside were blah. Don’t get me wrong, the house is beautiful but the Kalama’s should’ve won. It makes me not want to watch it because it’s a popularity show and not a show based on who’s the most talented in that moment. They are all talented but the rookies gave us something to look forward to each week. Alison was treating Michel as if he were her assistant and didn’t let him make decisions in the beginning but just agree with hers. She’s very cocky when it comes to her thinking she’s better than everyone else and she’s NOT!! (JMO) This show is not judged fairly at all…

My favorite was the Kalama house. I thought it would be them or the Knights. Though I love Alison (fellow Chicagoan), her and Michel's house was my least favorite and I was very surprised it won. I guess the container house did it.

Completely rigged. Very disappointing
Should have been one of the “rookies”
Which is demeaning because they were the better designers

Well, Alison has been on the show as a contestant 3 times, first time solo, second with Mike Holmes, no chemistry and 3rd time, this time with Michelle and she treated him like her assistant 😀😃

G
The winning team was my least favorite home. I would never buy a home with shipping containers and rocks for a back yard. There was nothing family friendly about this house and Utah is very family centric. Even Michel said he thought a rookie team would win. My favorite was the Kalama home followed by the DeBoer's.

Very disappointed. Victoria and Michel Were last place for me. Their kitchen was hideous and the basement was a mess. I felt sorry for Michel he had good ideas but with her it's all about "me me me", she is very talented but this was terrible J&J should have won. The rookies were grest!

They won ONE week then when the whole thing??…totally fixed. That indoor pickleball fiasco alone should have put them in last place.

If you watched previous seasons you would have noticed that Brian and Mika won the whole season and never won a single week. It is the total value at the end that matters.

I was hoping they would finally get one right, nope. Bottom 2 wins it… again. Ugggg

C
I don't agree with the outcome and disliked most of Team Allison's too-urban, overdone designs, which were so not family-friendly but should come as no surprise seeing how neither she nor Michel seem inclined.but hey--now she'll stop whining about wanting to win "So bad. So so bad" lol!
8
-
G
Hoping that now that Alison has finally won one she won’t be returning. Hated the green in the kitchen but loved it in the bathroom. Being that the homes are in Utah Cole and Chelsea should have won. Family is everything there. I agree that the added casita, as ugly as it was, was probably what won it for them. I want to know who came in 2nd place!
9 1
-
R
All this commentary on Allison and her personality. She's competitive! She's strong and confident. If she was a man everybody would say wow look at him he's amazing. But because she's a woman everyone talks about her as being so terrible. She works in a tough business and works hard at what she does and is good at what she does. I hate the narrative here.
-
-
C
Hoping Allison's win will stop her from being a contestant in future episodes. Something about her makes me think she isnt very genuine.
7

G
Disappointing but it's TV... Contrived & staged. Not a real contest. The rookies were better.
8 1
-
O
LOL people forget this is SHOW BUSINESS, everything is staged for drama and ratings, the producers knew from day one ALISON WOULD BE the winner
-
-
O
I think they changed the rules so that Alison and Michel could win. They both act like they are better then everyone. She's worse!!! The Rookies should have won. I love this show but I'll stop watching if they continue this. Why did they win?? Because she would have thrown a fit.
7
-
O
Alison gave them an ultimatum, either she wins this time or she won't return, poor Michelle, she treated him like her helper, she made all the decisions and he just agreed so not to upset her
1
-
R
Just what rules would they have changed? I cannot believe people actually think the show was rigged and somehow forced it so Allison would win. I really would like to know what rules there were that were changed so she would win.

Kalama's

I am by no means an expert, but I felt the Kalamas house was the best. I wish the public could vote also.

-
B
This was a great season! All the teams did more than enough to win but at the end of the day, it comes down to the appraisal and added value. I'm a fan of ALL the teams but was pulling for the Kalama's. Allison, I love you, Congrats to you and Michel, but you could have been a better teammate. ❤️
6
-
R
The wrong couple won. All that green yuck. Plus the step up for the bed, how long will it take for someone to fall or trip. That’s a hazard waiting to happen. A pickle court in the basement? Are you kidding. Why didn’t anyone put a 1/2 bath in the basement? That’s just the major problems.
6
-
C
I think that Jon/Jordan or Chelsea/Cole should have won. Their houses were much better! I'd be interested to see which house SELLS first and which one actually sells for the most. It seemed fair up until the end and then it was rigged. I think Alison Victoria threatened them all...even on camera at times. HGTV could drop her entirely and she could go back to living off her family for all I care. She thinks waaay too much of herself!

I think the Kaulana’s should have won. Their house was beautiful , they won two challenges and the only house with solar panels which helps with the electric bill. Also helps when the power goes out!

Very disappointed in the winner. Never would have picked that house. Preferred the Rookies all the way. The fenced in backyard was definitely the best and they didn’t win. Again, very disappointed!

The rookies definitely had the better houses! Plus, the vibe on Allison & Michael is so off & they act like they r better than everyone else! Idk how they got away w/adding a container house to a residential area- maybe Utah has no rules for container houses??

Either of the rookies should have won. Their houses were just overall better. Alison and Michele were last on my list.

Allison asked for a favor to get the small house in back which helped them win. Sounds like cheating to me. So they shouldn't have won

-
G
I was surprised about who “won”…
My observation with the four couples not ONE couple thought to put a bathroom on the lower floor…when watching a movie in the movie room, playing games, even cold splashing/saunaing…if one needs to “go” one has to run upstairs….
Also, I would have put a fun design in the window wells…not added value yet would tie the room with the windows
4
-
G
No bathroom on the lower levels with any teams was beyond sad amateur. I will say, on a similar note, Cole and Chelsea being the only ones to fence was interesting.
-
-
C
I think they choose the right winners. The materials that Allison and Michelle used was very high end. Their whole house was pretty much paneled in white oak and that’s an expensive product. The kitchen was excellent. The master bathroom and closet was also beautifully done in white oak. These are things that add value, and the cherry on top was the Casita in the backyard. A 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom and a full kitchen, value added to the appraisal! However, I too was puzzled by the lack interaction between Allison and Michelle when they were announced as the winners. They never congratulated each other. It did not go unnoticed so what was the reason for that?

Exactly!

Tell us tue order they finished in. They said only a $35,000 difference between 1st and 2nd. Tell us the final order!

I was very disappointed. Any other team should have won. I bet the other houses sell for more. Besides, the backyard Casita was cheating. It should have been a blind judging. Blind judging every time. If she's on next time I am not watching.
3
-
P
I think it should always be blind judging..I loved the couple from Hawaii home..I also felt as if Alison and Michel were not always on the same page..She gives off that energy of being someone who thinks their always right..Her way or no way!
3
-
O
It was Allison's 3rd time on the show. I was pretty sure she was going to win. I wouldn't want to look at that shipping container everyday. And if you have kids. they're not playing in that backyard. Any of the other houses were better.
The pickleball court in the basement was a joke. Not useful at all.
3
-
B
Now that AV has FINALLY been handed a rigged victory can we PLEASE be done with her? A more arrogant, conceited contestant is nowhere to be found, unless it's Michel or Mike Holmes, whom were partnered with her on different seasons. Confidence and ability are one thing, arrogance and condescention toward others is something else.
Please HGTV be done with her now. She has blighted too many seasons with her mean girl remarks and superior attitude.
Just remember AV it took you 4 tries to win. Many of the people you feel so superior to won on their first try. Go away.

G
Guess you just handed it to poor poor Allison. Her house was not for everyone but one specific buyer. And the pickle ball court was just a big no. The rookies had the best houses and one of them should have one. This was truly rigged

Show was awesome! Talent was awesome! Designs were awesome! I agree though, Hawaiian couple should have won. Green kitchens dont appel to everyone.
Job well done to all!!!
Loved it!

In the 1960's, green and gold were popular colors especially for kitchens. Allison and Michel's kitchen reminded me of the kitchen I had grown up with. All they needed was either avocado or gold refrigerators, ovens, etc. Their kitchen was absolutely horrible! The backyard was awful too with the gravel and the container house. I would have been happy if one of the other three won.

R
I’m glad Allison and the veterans one! The rookies houses were good. But not great! All the houses were beautifully done!
2
-
G
My favorite team is alison and michel, so im glad they won. It was a little strange not seeing hug, but both of them was crying
2
-
G
Their house was by far the worst house on the block!!! Who would want a backyard filled with stones and then look out from the deck to see containers????? I don’t care if they think that adds value, in my opinion it would diminish the value. This win was rigged to let Alison win! The other three teams were far superior to Alison & Michel’s house!
2
-
G
All I know for sure is we were all shocked in my house when they won. We were sure it was going to be the Kalamas taking the title. Their home was vastly better than all the others, in our opinion. I'mtorn as to whether or not I want to watch anymore. It feels rigged.
2
-
O
Definitely should have been Jon and Jordan or the Kalamas. Something was off for sure. 🙁
2
-
B
It was a 4-way tie in my opinion. But, it won based on the market value assessment from 3 independent appraisers who were not a part of the production company. I think the casita brought it home for them.
2
-
G
A backyard with only rocks and no grass should not win
2
-
O
Great win for ugliest house!
2
-
O
I don't think the right team won. I think Jon and Jordan Knight's house and designs were way better than any of them. The green kitchen and bathroom in Allison's house was way to extreme

What happened to Chelsea & Cole’s bunk room. They never showed it finished.

Don't understand why people were surprised. The end game of the entire show is which team added more value to the property. As always Allison's home was gorgeous bringing value consistently. Did I care for the pickle court in the lower level, no. But in the home with the movie theater....you have to be kidding. In a home that big I'm sure more than four people would want to watch a movie at the same time. And those bean bag looking chairs were not afflicted. I agree about Allison's back yard of just rocks. But additing the container building with two bedrooms and a kitchen put them over the top. It could be a wonderful unit for aging parents or bring in a monthly income for a family. One person said we saw no trenching for utilities or plumbing, but we didn't see every little thing in every house. And with a street to the side and behind the property I'm sure there were services that ran down those streets. It was a smart move

-
B
Each of the houses had cool elements. Best design work of all the RTB seasons. Hard to pick a winner, but last season it DEFINITELY should not have been the crazy twins from Lynwood WA. They won ONLY because of their solar panels adding market value. So, if you want to complain about Alison’s and Michele's winning due to the value of the casita, it is only fair to acknowledge that that is the only reason that the twins’ CRAP design won last season.
1
-
O
Agree, I didn't like that the twins house won last year as well. But, I don't see the eyesore of the container building as a positive ANYTHING. A casita is USUALLY a beautiful extra addition that astecially BLENDS and elevates the area it is BUILT ON, not dragged to and "dropped". The fact that they stated it was set up and readyto use by the next day was stupid. No electricity, plumbing, etc. was done to the metal building, it was "just dropped" and we were led to believe it was fully ready to go. The viewers are much smarter than they give us credit for being. Again, IT IS AN EYESORE and per the rules, should NOT have been allowed!

Kalamas should have won for sure. Full accessible dwelling on their lower level, added square footage, solar panels, on and on...not to mention no eyesore container house in the backyard. Loved the season, the Cowboy chic was great, but boooo.

P
Chelsea and Cole had the best house. The ‘winners’ house was the worst and the backyard was atrocious. I understand the outrage from the viewers.
1
-
O
I think the brothers or the Hawaiian couple should have won. That green that the winning team had all through the house was very specific. It was too much. Also they gave up a bedroom for a tiny gym. Which was a disconnect. All of the recovery items the cold plunge and sauna were in the basement? So you workout where all the bedrooms are located disturbing everyone and then go down two levels to the basement to recover? That was poor planning. The best thing about Allison and Michel’s home was the master closet. Other than that if I was a buyer I would not buy that house. That casita was ugly. They cladded everything in that cedar except the one thing that needed it the most - the casita. Leaving it as is looked like a trailer home parked behind a million dollar home. They should not have won. Totally rigged.

How disappointing! Other than the green tile that house was nothing to write home about … no idea how that team one! Should have remained blind judging in the final week!
1
-
O
Probably was rigged from the beginning...she's the golden child for some reason! HGTV needs to let others shine too, IJS. If this favoritism keeps up, viewers will move on to watch something/anything else!
So sick of Allison being on everything on HGTV!!!

B
Sorry but the wrong house won. I would have preferred either the Knight Brothers or one of the rookies. More to offer and not that awful green everywhere
1
-
O
Who was second? Third and last? I like green but the choice of green looked like baby-poop on the cabinets and way too much green EVERYWHERE ELSE! 🙂

-
O
You are looking at this show for what designers you like. A realtor and appraiser are determining which house would sell and the market in the area. Contrary to what you think, many families can't afford these homes and the nearest schools are miles away. It all about taking everything into consideration, zoning laws, proximity to necessary services etc.
1
-
B
Definitely not Allison and Michel. That green kitchen was atrocious! I thought Chelsa and Cole or the Hawaiian couple, like everyone else had better designs. I think they need some new judges!!
1
-
B
I think they need more then one judge on the final day. Everyone has different takes on houses. Maybe had all the judges come back and hash it out.
1
-
B
I agree with most that one of the rookie teams should have won. I really liked their houses much better.
1
-
O
No way! They wasted space by putting in a fake pickle ball court. I guess ya gotta love green, a pile of rock and a container in your back yard and a so so outside exterior. The last winners house on Rock has not even sold yet and the price has been reduced. Get real people or we will stop watching.

P
I do not think HGTV would let Alison Victoria lose.

G
I’m NOT a fan of Green! To much green !! Not everyone likes green!! My favorite was Cole @ Chelsea!! But the Knights were really good to! And The Kalamas Just Wow!! Very well deserved,
1
-
O
I felt that the kalamas home was better. Alison and michel home too much of just Alison.
I feel the three other teams were more realistically designed for today families
1
-
R
Very disappointed and surprised by the winning team. If you can call them that. The casita is such an eyesore and the only way to get out of the bed is to crawl over the other person or go out the door to the outside and walk around the shipping container!! Ugly!! Everyone else did so much better.
1
-
B
I don't even care for Allison. Never watch her show, but they did have the best design
1
-
R
If Trystan and Kamohai had used there final $20K on a fence instead of solar I think they'd have won. I don't understand the fawning over Allyson... Their kitchen was beautiful, but not functional. No you're cabinets. Where do you put your plates and glasses? A lower cabinet or drawer? Heck no. I'd love to see the show release the appraisals so that you can see what made the difference between the 4 houses.
1
-
P
I was confident The Kalama’s! 2nd The DeBoer’s. They both seemed to put a lot of work in their design with the area in mind.
I sure hope it wasn’t rigged! I will quit watching!
Perhaps consider letting viewers vote!
1
-
N
Hawaiian couple should of won!
1
-
G
Hopefully this will keep her off the future shows. She's the only celebrity that's constantly on there, no others are continued repeats. She stayed until she finally won in their opinion. Next season will be better without her!
1
-
O
I'm not a fan of Allison but love Michel. Did not watch this season because of Allison. I will go back and watch & see who I would have picked.
1
-
O
Didn't like their house at all! Chelsea and Cole's house was so much better than any of the others.
2 1

G
Very disappointed in change to judging rules for the final contest. Should have remained blind judging on the most important episode/contest for the entire series. This clearly felt rigged, as though it was predetermined that Alison would need to be the winner and something had to be done to make that happen. If the judging stayed blind through the entire process, Alison and Michel would not have been the winners. I don't trust the appraised values either since Jonathan was able to provide "input" - wouldn't happen in real life. I was also disappointed that the final appraised values were not announced for all four properties.
1
-
T
It definitely should have been one of the rookie teams that won! Their homes were so much better. That green kitchen that Alison did was tacky and way too specific - would not appeal to a broad range of buyers. I'm curious to know how things shake out once the homes are for sale - which house sells first, and which sells for the most. I'm betting it's not Alison & Michel's!! Also - I felt like there should have been a drinking game going on for every time Alison declared something she did as a "veteran move." Putting a mini pickleball court in a basement is so not a veteran move! 😉
1
-
P
I agree. I’d love to see the sales information.
59 1
-
O
I agree 100%. I did not like that green and it is too taste specific. The pickleball court in that tacky mural not to mention the cold plunge pool in the pickleball court took away from the value of the home as far as I'm concerned
13 1
-
R
I agree. That lower level was not very good. You couldn't play pickleball on that. I get that the green hood was a statement piece in the kitchen, but like someone said it's specific for a buyer. I don't think they should have won, in fact, I think they were the least favorite home to me. Each person or team had some fantastic rooms and ideas and designs, but I don't know who decides these things. Maybe they should let the audience decide.

She has done a green kitchen before on Rock the Block. She also seems out of touch on what is important for new home owners. Her ideas are old, dry grass, burnt door and nasty brass sink

Her pickleball court was a joke
11

G
Totally. And yeah everyone wants a cold plunge spilling slippery water on your barely even half court of pickleball. I'm still so pissed they won.
1

-
G
She also went hardon that green and repeated it in her master suite. Their house should have been last place. A storage container prefab? What year is it? Gag.
5 1
-
-
O
Of course it was rigged. For example. Do you really think that they could get water, sewerage and electricity run to the far end of their property in 5-days and within their budget? Never showed any trenching going on! What about permits and building inspections for adding a separate structure!
It’s all for entertainment!
1
-
G
My thoughts exactly!
24
-
B
The twins knew it was Jonathan once the saw goats the have face timed one another on Jonathan's farmhouse. Friends that's y they picked that house!!
-
C
I would think that shipping container would have required a permit! When Michel questioned it she shut him down!!! Did you notice that?!
2
-
L
You notice they never showed anything in that container actually working? There’s no way that was permitted and had permanent utilities. Poor Michel.
2
-
R
So because you didn't see trenching going to the houses the houses didn't have water? The housees were fully constructed before they ever got there. And obviously there would be no way a show would have time to air absolutely every aspect of that kind of thing. Clearly electrical and plumbing and inspections would have been pre-done for the most part before the teams ever got started. And besides that that would be boring. Come on man

Alison Victoria and Mechel’s house was my least favorite. Back yard was nothing but rocks and the casita was an eyesore from outside. I think the casita must have won it for them due to value. However, Alison said she had to pull in favors to get it! I don’t think any of the couples should be able to get free stuff. They should only be allowed to use the money given them. The casita was an unfair advantage. I enjoyed the show but disappointedin the final winners decision. The rookies houses were both better!
1
-
R
I agree
13
-
C
I thought it was unfair that Alison pulled in a favor for the casita. Rules should be they can only use the money they are given, not favors. One of the rookies should have won…Alisons kitchen and bathroom was gawdy. Felt sorry for her partner…he got no input

C
Plus that indoor pickeball court??? Ridiculous. And whatever that was on the wall around it...was she kidding with tgat?

-
-
R
I think the casita or to me it just looked like an old storage unit, was such an eyesore. Why didn't they cover it to make it look nice? It stood out and the brown backyard was terrible. The pickleball court in the basement was terrible. You couldn't play on that. But the pickleball court the other people put look nice but you couldn't play Pickleball there cuz you'd have to chase the balls all the time. They didn't have a fence around the court.

Everything they....SHE did, looked cheap, trashy and useless (mini ridiculous pickleball "court")

J
The Hawaiian couple's house was the BEST. Did not like the winning house at all although I have liked many designs from her windy city show. She is talented but the only thing I liked about this house was the gym.
-
G
I think the extra square footage of the containers got them the win.
-
G
HGTV has made a bad mistake, in my opinion, elevating Allison to a "Diva" level. She is unkind, self-absorbed and conceited! Though I love most of the shows and have been a huge supporter of this network from it's inception, I will never watch anything again that features her!
Except for the fact that there are no longer any gardening shows ( which defies the "G" in HGTV) , this network has always provided relaxing, enjoyable and inspirational entertainment, free of all the politics, strife and violence of the world and most of all the other television networks! I believe THAT is what has made HGTV so successful!
Rigged competition shows, like Rock the Block has changed this...they have 'bought into' the mean-spirited ethic that has NEVER been part of HGTV series!
I guess we have to speak with the remote control!
-
P
Terrible judging
-
G
I was hoping one of the rookies would have won. The Deboers for their fenced yard and arcade, the Kalamas for their movie theater, adult barb and prep kitchen.
-
C
I think you should at least say the top two teams. I thought it was rigged for Alison . I liked the Kamala’s as well as the Knight’s
-
O
The separation between Victoria and michel was in your face! They stood feet apart.
They shouldn’t have won. Who wants a rock back yard to look at. Although the green was pretty, who wants it forever! And I love green. Or pickle ball in basement! Really?
One of the rookies should have won. Much better house designs. Rigged forsure.
Makes me sad, not cool rock the block!
-
G
Allison and Michel should not have won. While the did have some amazing rooms, all in all, both rookie teams had far better houses and much better, (much, much better), outdoor spaces.
-
G
It is so obvious that Alison is impossible to work with. In the Rock The Block season where Holmes was her partner you could cut the tension between them with a knife. Plain to see she alienated Michele this season. How many times did the girl whine about this being her 3rd time as if she should win because of that alone. Their house would have been number 3 in my lineup and if she was graded on treating your partner with respect she would be dead last!
The Kalama’s are the real winners in my book.
-
G
Highly shocked at the winning team, but I like Michel. Expected a Rookie team to win, but happy for Michel. So, who came in 2nd place?
-
P
Isn't everyone sick of Alison. Hope you don't have her on anymore. Quite obvious she bought herself a win. That house was NOT the deserved winner. What a shame.
-
P
Definitely rigged. Too bad. How much did Alison pay you to get her win.
-
B
As much as I like Allison and Michel, I definitely do not think they had the winning home!!! Like many others, I too was shocked!!!
Their backyard was awful as was their basement!
I agree, the rookies were the best this season!
CHELSEA & COLE were NUMBER ONE!!!!
They did their research and "created" a HOME that lends itself for an active FAMILY that actually spends time together! 💕
-
C
Totally rigged ... Tristan and Kamoha should have won!!!
Allison putting a container in the backyard and no landscaping, give me a break... no designing at ALL!!!!
-
G
I am so in agreement with so many of your responses!!
LOVE THE SHOW!
I was disappointed who won!!
The winner has been there 3 times.... MOST of her designs...
Look the same...
Her arrogance comes thru quite a bit!!!
Loved the Kalama's home...had EVERYTHING ...quality & sincerity!
Thanks for listening ...a avid viewer!
-
R
Did not agree with the winner. I liked the 2 rookie teams’ design best and felt they had the most value overall. The casita/container was an eyesore. Disappointed.
-
P
Jonathan(property bro) was very leaning in his comments towards Allison and Michele. That's where I thought the bent started. He also had convos with the appraisers afterwards. Hmmm...It was definitely not the best house of the season. no offense to the designers. I didn't think Michel and his partner should have won in their season. So I don't know how they actually call a winner. Would love to see the actual numbers. Have they released them yet?
-
G
One of the Rookies should have won !!Totally disagree with the out come !!The Gym gave them the winning edge- that’s crazy !!!
-
G
I liked Allison'sand Michel's house the least. Not my taste, but since they added the most value, they should have won. My esthetic was more towards the Kamala 's and DeBoer's. I don't have that kind of money to buy any of them. So, there's that. Allison has a rude personality, so I didn't want her to win.
-
B
Alison and Michel's house was beautiful. They all were beautiful. They all worked very hard. The buyers of any of these homes are very lucky.
-
P
They were all good collectively! But Overall I think the Hawaiian couple, sorry I forgot their names, should have won! They hit all the points for me! And better install living spaces useful!
-
R
I think it was clear that Allison and Michel we're going to win the entire time. It is the house that has the most appraised value and everything they did was adding huge value. Weird how some people think there's always a conspiracy. The fix was not in people. Their house was clearly the most high-end and would appeal to the most people. I thought everyone's homes were beautiful but Allison and Michel's stood out as extraordinary. I thought as the weeks went by they should have won a couple of more weekly challenges. Those challenges were based on the opinion of one or two people. Someone else may have thought differently from week to week. And let's not forget that Brian and Mika won without winning a single weekly challenge. The best team did win!
-
O
They shouldn’t have won,, there were better designs other than what she puts out, in my opinion.
-
C
Everyone did an excellenr job but I think it came down to the container unit. Even with it being an eye sore to some, the ability to have a whole additional living space added a high amount of value that the other homes could not compete with. I personally loved more spaces in the Hawaiian couples house but each home had components I loved.
-
P
The Kalama’s should have won for sure! There house by far was consistent in its design. My husband & I both agreed it was easy to pick this time. I don’t know what was so good about about Alison’s house. That kitchen was so over done. Way to much green!
-
B
Show was definitely decided before it even began. As soon as I heard Alison was coming back I immediately knew her team would win because she’s too arrogant to lose a third time. I feel bad for Michel because his work is beautiful and he’s going to feel the effects of the negative comments about Alison. There was obvious tension between them too—they stood yards apart from each other, there was no excitement between them. Personally I thought their kitchen was the least attractive, but the “kitchen queen” wouldn’t have been happy to lose, so they gave them that one too. And who wants to look at not one, but two shipping containers in their backyards? There’s blind judging was a really good idea and it should have continued when Jonathan Scott viewed the houses.
-
O
The winner is based on value added and not just design. I think people are confusing design versus what adds value to a home. When Jonathan walked thru the homes, he said what realtors look for because they know what clients request. Sauna, cold plunge and workout room were 3 of those things and Alison and Michel's house was the only one with all 3 items. Adding the container was a veteran move no matter how it looked. It added human living space, therefore it added value. All.of these things combined put them $35,000 of value more than the 2nd place team. ALL of the teams did an AWESOME job, but there can only be one winner and you can never get everyone to agree because taste is subjective but value added is concrete.
-
O
I enjoyed Rock the Block this year. Everyone won this year! I hesave seen all the groups work. They have up their game. Especially the Rookies. The Veterans knew how to bring value. Hope they do this next year bringing all Rookies.
-
G
Unfortunately I am conflicted who should have won. 1st I do believe there was some type of conflict between Alison &Michel. 2nd although their house was nice I think Chelesa and Cole house should have won followed by the Knights house. I also think it was rigged which is unfortunate too and has me loosing interest in watching.
-
O
I think the Kamalas should have won, hands down.
-
G
Alison is always all about her.. it's like she didn't even have a partner.. she didn't even congratulate Michele...smh don't like her
-
G
I love Rock the Block, but this season was not my favorite. I felt designing two or three rooms each week was too fast…also, I didn’t care for $50,000 given for the back yard and nobody put in a pool!!! Why not? I felt the trailers in the back yard were weird considering the huge house and then stick a trailer in the back yard! Weird…then goats??? Waste of $50,000. Good luck with selling the houses.
-
R
I do not think the winner was who should have won....just disappointing....think this will be my last time watching this show...seems fixed.
-
R
I was surprised and disappointed too. That house would have been my last choice, but that’s just me. I thought the Kamala’s should have won. I hope Kamala’s and Chelsea and Cole will come back. Thanks for a great season. I enjoy your show!
-
B
I didn't care for several rooms in the winner's house..or the outside! Rookies definitely should've won!
-
G
I felt like the Knight Brothers or the Kalama's should have won. I thought Alison and Michel's House was the worst.
-
R
Definitely the Kamalas should have won! Allison was given the win just to keep her happy. She even said she wouldn't return if she didn't win. Why don't you do a version where the viewers pick the winner??
-
B
Love the show. Best team won.
-
G
I totally believe it was rigged for Allison to win. Their house was so specific and would not appeal to many buyers. I predicted from day one that she would win, not because she deserved it but because either she or hgtv wanted it that way. Disappointed.
-
G
I think with the added value of the casita, they financially won. Maybe not design wise but that’s not the winning reason. It’s financial
-
O
The home values of each Rock the Block team should be stated or somehow indicated on air to show viewers how close or far apart they were evaluated by the realtors.
-
G
Did not like Allison's home inside or out. Either of the rookie homes was better. I was shocked! Very disappointing.
-
P
Good grief, Alison and her green. The wasted space of the pickle ball court. If I was voting they would have come in 4th. That THING in the back yard may have added more usable space, but it ruined the whole look of the back yard...tacky.
-
R
I think this was rigged. The 2 rookies had the best house. I hoAllison doesn’t come back next season. She’s annoying as hell.
-
G
I did not like the winning house. The green kitchen was much and the rick backyard was boring. I understand that house was appraised higher for the containers outside, but I bet it won’t sell as fast as the other 3 houses, all were much better on the total look inside.
-
P
The Casita added the most value to the house was the right move
-
P
They didn't deserve to win. Another disappointing year for the show. I am done. What has happened to HGTV?
-
O
I loved every room in the Kamala's home. I can't believe they didn't win. They had a washer dryer in the upstairs bathroom and a sauna! The living room felt cozy and I loved the ceiling in the entryway.
-
O
LOL people forget this is SHOW BUSINESS, everything is staged for drama and ratings, the producers knew from day one ALISON WOULD BE the winner
-
G
Honestly don’t think Alison and Michele’s house was the winner. Looks rigged to me unfortunately. Alison needed to tone it down as she looked desperate. I watch her show and this was desperation. Not a good look and not a good looking house.
-
L
I think that was Alison throwing a fit and getting her way…the network caved. The Rookies, BOTH couples, nailed it. Even Michel said it should be a rookie win. She’s fake and is great at playing the fake “poor me” card. Why would rookies even keep coming on the show if this is what they are going to have to deal with?? Sad.
-
G
I understand the added value concept but Allison bullied this team concept and I am disappointed in her
-
P
I believe one of the rookies should have won. The winners lower level was not good and had a bunch of things just thrown in; pickle ball half court thingy. Disappointed in this season. The rookies had better designs, more creativity and their houses were definitely more family friendly.
-
C
Alison Victoria was great in Chicago. Designing for upscale clients. She continues to use those over the top and gaudy designs where they don't fit in. She has overstayed her welcome on Rock the Block. I will not watch anymore if she is brought back
-
R
Totally rigged, that green will get old very quickly, not a fan of it at all. I usually like her designs but this one was a total fail.
-
O
I think they got it wrong this season. The winning house was too specific and seemed more geared to a "magazine layout" shoot than to a real family living there. Everyone seemed to gush over the choice of the COMPETING colors of green in that kitchen vs the cohesive and beautiful way the other three kitchens were done. I think the contest was rigged toward Allison and Michele winning from the start. If LOCAL appraisers "actually" thought the design and colors of the rooms in the winning house made it the house with the greatest increase in value then I worry about "real people" trying to purchase anything in that market no matter how expensive their budget is. No way would I enjoy living in a house with a bland storage container sticking out like a sore thumb in the backyard. The yard was not user friendly with all the rocks and gravel. I hope the three families who WILL BUY the other three homes enjoy having THAT ONE HOUSE that never sells as a neighbor. I think they need to just go ahead and make it a rental home for temporary stays and wild (sex) parties because I don't see anyone who will want to stay for longer than a week. Whoever, if any person does buy this will need to spend upwards of $100,000 plus to redecorate to a "normal person's" taste.
-
O
I think Alison & Michel took shortcuts for the landscaping. Not a fan! Loved the 'rookies' houses. The fence was inspired. Both of those houses were hands down over the winning house. I wasn't terribly enamored with the farmhouse chic styling but there were many pluses over Alison & Michel. No accounting for taste, I suppose.
-
R
I chose the Hawaii couple's house...best use of space. Victoria's Casita won it...
-
R
I'll never watch again! Even though I like Allison, she should not have won. The only reason they did was because of the additional housing they created with those tacky containers.
The rookies did SO much better out designing her!!!
-
P
I’ve been watching this show I love it 🥰 I was very disappointed when they announced the winner this group won the first episode and didn’t win the rest of the episodes and for them to pull in favors and not only use the money they were given is truly unfair to the others it was rigged and I don’t think they should have won. Any of the other teams should’ve won but not this one. If they are back again I will not be watching because they will just ruin the fun !!
-
O
Did not like Alison and Michels house. She gets mad when she doesn't win and you can definitely see that whenever they announced winners each week. Michel is a cool designer dont know why you paired him with her. I think one of the rookie houses should have won.
-
P
I totally agree, Allison should not have won, kitchen was way too much green and the court in the basement is useless. I used to like her, but now I feel she thinks she is better everyone else. I love both of the rookies houses, one of them should have won.
-
B
Alison Victoria should NEVER have won Rock the Block. ALL of the others were much more livable and family homes. She cheated by pulling in the favor of the casita.
-
P
Green is my. Favorite color...outside in nature!! Alison's Kitchens were gawdy, too much.
My heart was torn between Chelsea and Cole and Jon and Jordan as I've loved them and their styles for years. And seeing the Kamalas for the first time for me I quickly fell in love with them as well. Alison is a look at me person, and obviously can't handle losing so she kept on til she got what she wanted by ways we can only guess. It's time for her to hang up her designer toolbelt
-
G
I feel like Alison cheated with the ADU
-
B
The Kalamas or the De Boers should have won. Alison ruined the basement in her house. I say “her house” because Michel had very little say on anything. Alison made the decisions and bullied Michel if he didn’t agree. Shame on HGTV for giving her the win when her house was the worst.
-
L
Also can anyone say played out?? The cold plunge the water fall island is almost as played out as the floating shelves and that darn subway tile. Come up with better designs and better colors better items to make a house stand apart everything you're doing is played out!!!!!
-
L
I think Allison's and Mechel house was ok i don't know about the value they put into that house but I think a rookie team was better. The team with the plaid wall paper and bunk beds was awesome they should of won
-
G
I think this is what happens when you whine alot you win. I felt sorry for Michel.
I truly believe the best house was the kalama's.
Anyone but Alison's as it was the worst.
-
G
I was very disappointed that Allison and Michele won. Allison is so full of herself! I was really hoping Jonathan and Jordan or the DeBoers would win. Rock the Block is definitely one of my favorite shows!
-
B
I feel like Alison came back with a threatening attitude, implying she had to win no matter what. Michel really shouldn’t have aligned himself with her. She’s a decent designer, but not strong enough to take the win. This season has honestly changed how I feel about the show.
-
G
Disappointed won’t be watching again. My first and last time it felt rigged. Rookies should have taken this one.
-
R
The Kalamas should have won or the DeBoars. Alison and Michel's house was definitely not the best. Was it rigged!
-
G
Michel was very complimentary towards the other team members unlike Alison.
Something about her was off this season.
Good job, Michel.
-
C
My favorite houses were Chelsea and Cole’s house and the Kamala’s house. Both of these homes were designed for today’s families! Alison and Michel’s house was too Gaudy with that bright green kitchen, Pickleball taking up so much of the basement, and the boring, white gravel backyard! The Knights’s did a nice job, but I didn’t feel their home was for everyone! I love this show and home the Rookies are all back next year!
-
P
Definitely rigged.
-
G
Watched the series from the beginning an VERY disappointed with the overall winner Alison an Michele, very popular designing couple, but on this Rock the block series, no where could they touch the Rookies an Veteran Brothers.
It’s like Alison didn’t put her heart an soul in it because she knew from the beginning that no matter what she did she was gonna be the winner, it’s like the other 3 couples were scammed.
I won’t watch Rock the Block anymore it’s just too unfair.
-
P
Wasn’t a fan of the winning team. Rookies did better.
-
G
Hawaiian couple should have won, or Chelsea and Cole. Allison and Michel's home the worst. Gaudy!!
-
O
Totally disappointed. Trying to decide if I will watch this show in the future.
-
G
It should have been either the cowboy team or the Kalamas. I thought Alison and Michel's kitchen was hideous
-
O
Come on!! I thought it was going to the Hawaiians!!
-
P
If I was in the market for a home, I’d turn around and walk out of that house immediately after seeing the kitchen. There was nothing in that house that I wouldn’t want to change. That pickle ball court was a joke!
Definitely rigged, she should be ashamed of herself. I feel bad for Michel.
-
G
I was also disappointed in the winners! I thought it should have been one of the rookies or the Knight brothers

One of the Rookie teams should have won. Their houses were more beautiful and family oriented. I think Alison won just to make her happy since she has not won yet. The casita in the back did not look good.
-
G
Alison and Michel did not deserve the win and should have been last place. Worst of the four. My mom and I are still livid about Alison and Michel winning.
-
G
Kalamazoo should have won, it was fixed for Alison
-
O
They had to give it to Allison. She pouts like a 2 year old when she doesn't win.
-

I think their house was too much wood. it seemed like every wall had the same wood on it. And the kitchen was too specific, I like green but that was too much. And those God awful bathroom lights, what were those tassle things. I think the only thing that boosted the final appraisal was that living space in the back yard.
-
B
Definitely felt rigged. I think they award second wins to the Kamalas and Jonathan because they were very strong in competition, but gave Allison the overall win because she is back for 3rd time and had not won yet.
-
R
Wrong! Hawing should have won. Allison’s was fourth place.
-
O
I also a favorite however, the winning team had to make the most increase in value. I believe the extra living space in the container units provided the extra value for the win.

There is no way that Alison and Michel should have won this. For one, they didn't add value to that house, it was all over the place in design. The kitchen was heavy looking and gaudy, as the basement was also. They put a gym upstairs in the guest bedroom area, when it should have been put it in the basement where that cheap looking pickeball court was. With a cold plunge on one side of the court, and a hot tub on the other. None of that was a value add. If you were to move, every bit of that gym would go with you, except the doors. The pickleball court would be painted over, giving that house less value for the work that it would need to fix the mess.
That house was all over the place.
The container space out back was nice, but an eye sore. The knights had an out building, for multi purpose use. And it was beautiful. The goats were a little much, but it holds chickens also. It's fun.
I feel like the most value added by anyone would have been one of the rookie teams, or the knights brothers. This was rigged. There is no way she should have won.
Very disappointed with the shows decision. Let's start making this fair.

Definitely rigged. Rewatched the episode and AV knew she had a guaranteed win from the very start. She most likely threatened to quit HGTV if she wasn’t awarded the win. Clearly Ishe didn’t allow Michel enough input. That basement, container and rock yard were beyond horrendous. Did you see the profile shot of her against that ugly mural? That basement was AV’s vanity fiasco. Shame on you HGTV in assuming your viewers are as IQ deficient as your decision makers. And we knew there wasn’t enough time to do the entire basement (no bathrooms?) so that why not explain that to your viewers?

I think that it was fixed for Alison to win

I feel the same! Rookies deserved the win ! Even the Knight Brothers deserved better. Michel and Allison did seem to not click at all. Poor Michel .Great designs to the Rookies and Knights ! I'd choose you all anyway!
Allison is very set in her ways , that's why I am over her and her shows. She designing for herself. Never her clients. Sorry, just not my choice.

I did like the blind judging, but I don't think that Allison and Michel should have won. Granted, they had a nice house, but their outdoor area left much to be desired, and an unusable pickle ball court inside was a waste of space. How did that add value? The other 3 houses were exceptionally done and any family would have loved them and any of the other 3 would have been more worthy to win than Allison and Michel. As much as I loved the Kalama home (which was given a Hawaiian blessing, I thought Chelsea and Cole did a great job and their back yard was totally fenced in. Jonathan and Jordan's home was also done really well but not many people have need of a recording studio. I really think that either of the rookie teams should have won. Their homes were much nicer and they added more value than the eventual winner. Something was definitely off with that decision.

Who wants gravel for a back yard. And a ugly container
-
B
I like Alison Victoria but , thought the Rookies houses were much better.
-
G
Disappointed, like, oh, we have to give this to Allison and Michel because she didn't win for 2 times. No thought other 3 were better.
-
C
Wow, what a shocker. I had Alison in last place and the Kalama’s first.
Disappointed in what I’m hearing about the judging and this program. Too bad, I loved it till now.
-
P
I believe it was the Casita that put Alison and Michel in the win column. That being said, I watched the ending back again. I thought it was very strange that it looked like Allison hugged every single person except Michel! They didn’t even look at each other when the winner was announced!
Also, I thought I read somewhere that furnishings and accessories are not included when the houses are appraised. If that’s true, anything that is “built-in“ would apply to the sale, but not wall hangings and other furniture.
Anyway, I was really rooting for the Kalama’s! They did a great job and I love their show, Renovation Aloha.
-
D
I think it was rigged. I sensed Michel can't stand each other. I love the DeBoer's or the Kalama's. Both of their homes were beautiful. I would have been happy with either couple to win. They should ĥave! I bet Allison is pissed that her name was second on the street sign. Hopefully she won't be coming back!
-
O
I dd not like Victoria and Michael house at all. It was overdone and not comfortable feeling. I like to imagine myself in the houses barefoot. Their house was too sterile and cold feeling. The other house were more family friendly.
-
O
As much as I would have liked Allison and Michele to win... and they did, I don't think their house should have. I believe they gave it to them BECSUSE. I think the Kalamas should have taken home the win and the other Rookies next.
-
R
Watch every season. Kalama's should have won. This was decor of one house. Not an ugly casida too.
-
R
I can't believe none of the houses had an outdoor grill. Don't people in Utah cook out?
-
R
I wanted them to win from the start, but I was surprised. I thought the container on the yard, no grass in the back yard, and the useless pickleball court on the lower level were won killers. I thought any of the other teams had a better shot at winning. Everyone did a great job and each had their pluses and minuses. To me, most of them don't design for the masses. This make it harder to sell, because a specific buyer would only like certain things. Overall the season was good. I'm not sure if it was my favorite and I really didn't care for them being in the middle of nowhere in Utah, but it was a good season.

P
I think it is awful, that some.comments,,are negative, They did have a building on the property! It was about the value of the property! Well done , is my comment!!!!!
-

I was a bit angry! The Hawaiians should have won.who would want to look a a big trailer outside their window.
I’m sorry I watched it
-
C
Best team won!
-
C
Definitely not Allison. Any of the other 3. I really like the Knights.
-
O
I thought it strange that Allison and Michel didn't even hug. I thought the Kalams should have won
-
R
the extra housing container is what put them over the top. other than. I would have said it was rigged
-
O
The Kamala’s should have WON!! Who’s gonna want to look at that green kitchen everyday! Rock the Block is one of my all time favorite shows. This season felt strange as designs that should have won didn’t. Definitely a split between Alison and Michel in the finale… they never acknowledged each other!! Green with Envy maybe? Seems she was leading all the design decisions and he prolly had enough as he had already won a RTB challenge and she hadn’t.
-
O
It seems that Alison is a bit of a prima donna. Her way or no way. Yes, she and Michel design great, but it seemed that she wanted to spend money where he didn't. He wanted to go a different way with the money that would still have been stylish. The last couple of episodes, there was not the emotional closeness as when the show began. I think the other teams had better designs. At the end when the teams were congratulating each for a great few weeks, you didn't see the two of them being close.
-
R
Alison's home was actually the least favorite, I really hated the kitchen, any of the three other groups was better, I think this is the last time I will watch this show
-
C
I think Michel and Allison won because they added value outdoors with the container 2beds kitchen and washroom and rooftop seating
-
G
I have watched this every year and was so disappointed with the winner. Not loving any of their design.The Rookies were so much better. I am beginning to think that it was already decided before the show began. If this is how it’s going to be I am out!
-
R
First, all 4 did a phenomenal job on their homes. They each showed their designers personality. Secondly, I thought the blind judging should have gone all the way to the end. I like Allison but towards the end I thought she was getting a little of “I’m better than all the other designers here and I better win” attitude. It was hard for me to pick a winner because they were all great - family wise Chelsea & Cole were winners in my eyes.
-
R
Kalamazoo all the way. They brought that calm aloha feeling
The winners probably won because they added the " trailer "
-
R
To me both rookies teams were better, I found the veterans houses to be over designed, the adu may have put Alison's team ahead.
-
B
And like EVERY competition show these days. Now that the winner has been announced people will whine & cry because their pick may not have won. And the accusations of it being rigged & the “I’m never watching again” starts. People are ridiculous. Congratulations again Michel & to Allison.
-
O
I felt the same way; Victoria's demeanor toward Boyd was off. She was very standoffish and not professional at all. I thought I was the only one who noticed the strained relationship. They never congratulated one another. Regardless of their differences, be professional. She can be confrontational and always plays the victim. I loved her creativity and her designs, but she comes across as spoiled. They had some tough competition. I must admit that the kitchen was awesome. All of the designers did a phenomenal job.
-

Seemed like it was all scripted as to the weekly winners and the overall winner. I think the manor was conducted was just to bring in viewers, disappointed.
-
P
It was an amazing season. Great teams but I don't think Alison and Michel were the winners. The Rookies both had more cohesive designs. Alison is just plain annoying. Always wants her own way.
-
C
Don't agree with the win, I thought it definitely was between the rookies. But it is what it is. Disappointed 😞
-
O
I have watched every season. People who are saying that the wrong house/team won do not understand how the judging works. I knew Allison would win after they brought in the shipping container. It was like adding an entire new floor. The extra space gave them the win.
-
R
Very bad choice Jonathan Scott.
-
B
Though their home had beautiful elements, 1. it wasn't a family home to me. 2. Viewing a shipping container, whatever the purpose, totally put me off.
I felt the Kalama's warm family home was beautiful, surprising, creative and thoughtful. Gorgeous!
-
P
So disappointed. Rookies should have won.
-
B
This show is looking like just another Reality Show! I agree with everything DeeD posted on this thread. When the next season starts, I bet we can all figure out who the winner will be..All we have to do is listen to their comments
-
G
The wrong team won again. They need to keep Jonathan away from judging. Second time he rigged the vote. Not watching the show anymore.
-
B
Michel and Alison won because of the casita. It’s a value add and another living space. That adds value. 35k worth.
-
B
Love Allison and Michel home. It’s just so elegant. maybe not as kid friendly as the other homes, but it was a beautiful house.

No, no, no. The Hawaiian couple should of won!

Didn't think Boyd should have won, the twins shouldn't have won and now allison shouldn't have won
-
C
There can only be one winner, and even though they all did a great job, their house had the highest evaluation.
-
G
They made a terrible team and they had some ugly rooms! That downstairs with the Pickleball and ice plunge was awful! I like Victoria but not her best work.
The rookie teams had the best designs. The Knights failed with the swan fixtures!
-
C
I really liked Jon’s house the best. Rock the Block will never be really “fair” or “not biased” because it’s not a competition like a race or a fight or spelling bee with rules. It’s someone’s opinion judging based on their style that gets the win. I liked the green in Alison’s house and then, it kind of fell flat and the pickle ball court inside was a waste of space…. But, again that’s MY opinion. Congrats to them all, they did a beautiful job.

Loved all of the homes this season. Cannot say that of previous homes on Rock the Block. Honestly wasn’t a fan of the winning home last year but it came down to the extra’s in that case, not design. Alison Victoria and Michel’s home was not only stunningly beautiful, it had everything a million dollar home should have and more. The outside casita would be amazing for a work at home situation or to host guests. I would have to add grass but that’s an easy fix I’m a pickleball player and even though the court is small, I know my friends would definitely be over in the cold months to drill on that court. What put it over the edge for me though was the huge closet and the amazing gym with a view!!! They got it right this time!

I've been watching for the past six years and enjoyed this season of Rock the Block. All the teams did an amazing job, but Allison and Michele's home was appraised the highest and ultimately, the team's home that is appraised at the highest value, wins. I realize everyone has their own opinion, but I believe the right team won.

I love Rock the Block and always look forward to the next season. My favorite house was the Knights but I am thrilled for Allison and Michel. I thought the rookies did an excellent job and everyone should be so proud of their houses.

It was NOT rigged! I love this show, my favorite was the Knight house but i felt like Allison and Michele's house added the most value. The Rookie houses were nice but too specific. However they had some great ideas that I loved. I wish the other 3 houses had fenced their back yards. Winning was based on the most added value not design!

Casita, anyone? How could they have lost with that added value, the determination of who won? I would've been surprised if they hadn't won after that veteran move.

It may be a veteran move, but she called in favors to get the container. No way that was achieved on the budget they were using

She pulled a favor to get it for free. It shouldn’t have counted against the others that used their allotted funds to create their homes.

LOVED, LOVED the winners!! So glad Michel and Allison won it. Theirs was the most sophisticated and interesting. And green is my fave color. So high-end and beautiful!
They dropped the ball a lil on the Pickleball court, pun intended, but nailed the gym! Gorgeous kitchen and walk in closet!
That would be my pick for the house in which I’d live, especially with the ADU. Fantastic, smart move.
Good job to all! Loved the Kamala’s too. Sucker for a movie room.
