Your Big Family Renovation
is an American
reality series
that began on
HGTV
, on March 3, 2015, and aired for two seasons.
[2]
It was hosted by Brandon and
Jen Hatmaker

Original series

In June, 2014, one of Hatmaker's blog posts went viral when she ranted, humorously, about the burnout many parents experience at the end of the school year.
[3]
NBC's
Today Show
interviewed Hatmaker in a segment where she joked "we all care about our kids, we all care about education, but honestly, somewhere around end of April, early May, we’re kind of over it.”
[4]
After the interview was broadcast,
HGTV
contacted Hatmaker to discuss a possible series featuring her family.
[5]
Hatmaker discussed her family's religious lifestyle with the channel.
[5]
HGTV did not have an objection; their family fit a "quirky wholesome category" that had found success with
Duck Dynasty
and
19 Kids and Counting
.
[6]
The Hatmakers starred in the 8-episode series in the summer of 2014.

Hatmaker discussed the positive impact of being in a reality series on her blog. She called her family dynamics "wobbly" prior to filming due to the strains of the travel her career demanded and praised the experience of "working side-by-side together all day, every day."

Spin off
[

After the success of
My Big Family Renovation
HGTV picked up the spin off show
