More than a few people I know keep a whole neighborhood of house-flipping reality shows in their “Recordings” queue, making for reliable comfort viewing as they get lost in the inspirational, feel-good stories told on “Flip or Flop” or “Property Brothers” or “Fixer Upper” or “House Hunters” or “Love It or List It.” One could easily imagine an HGTV series called “Flipanthropy” joining the roster in this genre — a show that depicts the efforts of an earnest, newlywed couple as they endeavor to uplift a struggling New Mexico town by building homes that leave little or no environmental footprint, all the while creating adjacent businesses and job opportunities for the local Native American community.
Talk about a couple of heroes!
