Flipping Out is an American reality television series that debuted on July 31, 2007,[1] on Bravo in the United States and HGTV in Canada. The show is centered on designer Jeff Lewis in Los Angeles, California, his entourage that consists of his project manager Jenni, housekeeper Zoila, business manager and boyfriend Gage and his other assistant(s) and helper(s).[2] For the first season the show revolved around Lewis' flip projects as he renovated homes and re-sold them for a profit. As the housing bubble popped in 2007, Lewis started to focus more on his home decorating consulting business and less on flipping houses, though in season four he considered moving back into flipping small projects on the side.
Flipping Out has been renewed for a seventh season that will premiere on March 5, 2014.[3]
