Massive moves could be a good show, however the producers and announcer have decided not to allow this. The announcer over dramatizes and tries to leave the viewer in suspense, almost childlike, cheapening the show down to an almost a kindergarten level. Rather than to put an honest effort in taking the time to learn the proper names of the equipment they're using, and a description of what in fact is actually happening he chose to use drama and seems to fumble his way through. Obviously he has no clue on what house moving is all about and has never been around heavy equipment much and is going on only what he has been told. The producers on the other hand also don't seem to understand what house moving is all about and seem to be in over there head and have elected to try to dramatize the show with ridiculous and very irritating and distractive suspense music. They also need to learn that if a show as well enough produced and announced to keep the viewers coming back they don't need weird artwork to try to explain what they don't seem to be able to get across. Both the music and the artwork make what might've been a good show a very childish and infantile attempt. Also both are slap against the viewers intelligence as is quite obvious what's going on. Which again shows their ignorance on the subject as they believe that is that, like them the viewers need to be shown in a childlike and very condescending way.. House moving is not near as dangerous or perilous as both the announcer and the producers would try to lead us to believe. The operators of house moving operations have it well-thought-out before they start and safety is always their number one concern. In short put my hands of people that know what they're doing this could be possibly one of the most popular shows on TV today rather than just another cheap childish over dramatized reality show.

The show could be interesting but it is destroyed by pathetic attempts, at every turn, to introduce tension. Daunting music, descriptions of potential disaster at every turn, OMG, can they make it? It gets very predictable.

I realize that moving a house is a serious matter but the show artificially inflates the sense of danger. The professionals aren't "rolling the dice", they know what they are doing.

I think someone thought that, in order to keep people tuned in, the show had to be become a drama. In reality, moving a big building is a highly technical endeavor but if it is as dangerous as the producers try to make it appear, cities wouldn't issue permits and insurance companies wouldn't offer coverage.
