August 21, 2017
New York [August 21, 2017] After airing only five episodes of the first season of Flip or Flop Atlanta, HGTV has picked up 14 episodes of the series for a sophomore season. Currently airing on Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the series has attracted more than 7.9 million viewers since its premiere on Thursday, July 20. The second spinoff in the network’s immensely popular Flip or Flop franchise, Flip or Flop Atlanta stars Ken Corsini, a licensed contractor, and his wife Anita, a real estate and design expert, as they transform neglected properties into stunning remodels. Its strong performance helped HGTV rank as a top three cable network among upscale W25-54 in the Thursday 9-9:30 p.m. ET/PT timeslot. Season two is scheduled to premiere in 2018.
“The performance of Flip or Flop Atlanta is exactly what we anticipated,” said John Feld, senior vice president of programming for HGTV, DIY Network and Great American Country. “The Corsini’s real estate and budgeting savvy, expansive renovations, and seemingly effortless ability to manage their business relationship, is inspiring for anyone who has ever thought about flipping a house.”
