A&E Thinks Climate Once Again Ripe for House Flipping

Green lights series starring former Survivor Russell Hantz

A&E has green-lighted seven episodes of a new reality series they’re calling Flipped, hosted by three-time former Survivor contestant Russell Hantz. The new series, slated to air later this year, features Hantz buying up houses at a discount in Houston, Texas, renovating them, and trying to sell them off at a profit.

In the last few years, A&E has mostly focused on nonscripted programming—buying up only one new scripted miniseries, which will debut this summer, but  introducing four new nonscripted series, including a spinoff of the reality show Storage Wars called Storage Wars: Dallas in advance of its upfront earlier this month.
