It's been more than 20 years since Chip and Joanna Gaines first launched Magnolia, and the Fixer Upper power couple can still surprise their fans. Chip and Jo are bringing two brand-new shows to their Magnolia network, and one is seriously surprising.
This fall, the parents of five will add another show to their Fixer Upper franchise. After the original debuted in 2013, they've starred in Fixer Upper: Welcome Home and Fixer Upper: The Castle. Now, their eagerly awaited new series Fixer Upper: The Hotel is coming to television.
The new show finds Chip and Jo revamping Hotel 1928 in their hometown of Waco, Texas. They first announced the project back in 2019 and it's finally ready to open for business. The series, which will follow the renovation process of the boutique property, will premiere on November 8 on Magnolia and Max.
And then, for the news no one expected, the Gaineses are bringing a roller dancing competition show to Magnolia Network. Joanna has showed off her recent appreciation for roller skating (even posing in a pair on the cover of her magazine), and now she's bringing that love to television. Magnolia announced the "first ever nation-wide roller dancing competition series" will be executive produced by Chip and Jo. It is described as a "a nostalgic, family-friendly competition featuring the top roller-skating crews in America." The yet-to-be-named show coming to Magnolia and Max in early 2024.
We'll take any opportunity to see the Fixer Upper couple back on our TV screens!
