Actress and Comedian Retta Goes Cross-Country to Tour More Hideous Homes in “Ugliest House in America: Summer Road Trip” Premiering on HGTV Monday, August 7, @ 8 PM ET/PT

Summer is the season to hit the road and explore the country’s most beautiful destinations, but Ugliest House in America: Summer Road Trip, premiering on HGTV Monday, August 7, @ 8PM ET/PT, will reveal things can get ugly despite stunning surroundings. Hosted by Retta, a home design enthusiast, as well as a comedian and actress known for her roles in Parks and Recreation and Good Girls, the series attracted nearly 11 million viewers to its previous run. During the new six-episode season, Retta will take a road trip to five picturesque destinations to visit 15 horrendous homes nominated by their owners and share her hilarious reviews of the astonishingly bad designs, cringe-worthy layouts, and sorely outdated styles. Based on its ugly appearance, poor functionality, and hideous design choices, one house will be crowned the “ugliest house in America” by HGTV, and the network will award its owners a showstopping $150,000 renovation completed by Alison Victoria, one of its top stars, during a special one-hour finale episode.

“As mortified as I am by the nonfunctional spaces and unexplainable design choices in these homes, I’m also drawn to it,” said Retta. “Like a moth to the ugliest of flames, I need to see and know what the heck is going on in there.”

In each episode, Retta will tour three homes where she shares her unfiltered reactions to all sorts of questionable design ranging from an overwhelming assortment of fairytale-themed knick-knacks and fake stained glass to miles of terrible tile and carpeted handrails. Throughout the season, Retta will see the best of the worst across the U.S. and help a lucky homeowner transform their unsightly house into a stunner.
