It's Time To Flip Out Once Again...

So what does a successful house flipper do when the real estate market goes down the toilet?

Well, if it’s Jeff Lewis, he flips out, of course…

After what seems like forever, “Flipping Out” returns this week with Jeff back in the remodeling business since he’s unable to flip houses any more. In fact, things have sunk so low that Jeff is living somewhere I would’ve never believed (and I won’t give away here because it’s such a surprise for longtime fans). But he still has his team of his maid, Zoila, his executive assistant, Jenni, and his business partner, Ryan. Jenni is looking for a man but she isn’t the only one looking as Zoila works on her flirting skills as well.

There are also some new team members, including Trace, the design intern who can’t get out of bed until he wins at iPhone checkers. And if you think that makes him fit right in with Jeff, you would be correct…

Jeff actually seems to be handling his situation rather well when the premiere begins—with a few minor OCD quirks—but before that first hour is up, we’ll see a classic Jeff Lewis flip out…

And isn’t that really why we watch?

The previews show us a ton of juicy stuff to come, including a showdown I would have never expected to see…

It’s time to flip out once again, and I couldn’t be happier about it…

“Flipping Out” premieres Tuesday, August 18th at 10 p.m. after the season finale of “Miami Social” on Bravo…
