A complete list for the premiere dates of all reality shows this Fall.

Ty Pennington and his design team are heading to Ohio to inform one lucky family that they have been selected for a home makeover by showing up at their Dayton-area home on Thursday, July 30. At present, there are five families vying for a spot on

ABC unveiled its Fall schedule today and it features an ambitious lineup of new series to premiere all season long.  The schedule features eight new shows, including a Wednesday night that contains nothing but new programs.  This is identical to the strategy ABC used two years ago when it premiered three new hour-long shows on Wednesdays.

There is a new category this year for the Prime Time Emmy Awards, and it has me quite excited.  Probably far more excited than I should be.  It is for the Best Reality Show Host.  The Emmy Nominations will be announced next Thursday morning, July 17, and while we have a fairly good idea who the contenders are for the major awards, thanks to leaked short lists that have hit the internet over the past couple of weeks, we have no idea who the contenders for Reality Host will be.  While the categories for Best Reality Show are split into Reality Show and Reality Show – Competition, the Host category is a veritable free-for-all.  If you host any sort of prime time reality series, you are eligible.  Since prognostication is part of the BuddyTV repertoire, we thought it‘d be nice to take a look at who likely will be nominated and who, in a perfect world, should be.

Country singer Wynonna will make special appearances on ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.  The episode, which is scheduled to air November 4, features the reconstruction of a 20-acre property owned by a Wyoming couple that has devoted their life to providing safe residence for rescued animals.

The last time around, we reported on the latest beneficiary of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition being Kirkland, Washington resident, Connie Chapin, whose 100-year old ancestral home was already on its last posts and shingles.

While their nominations might not get quite the same amount of speculation and attention as do the noms for comedy and drama series or individual actors, reality programs are still part of the Emmy Award night. And with reality shows appearing to have outlived all the “This is just a fad” predictions, and finding themselves fairly firmly entrenched in nearly every network‘s schedule, the competition for the gold statuette can be just as fierce as any
