Two major changes came to "Fixer Upper" when it got the reboot treatment. The first, a new name: "Fixer Upper: Welcome Home." The second? A new network.
In 2018, when Chip and Joanna Gaines announced they'd be partnering with Discovery Inc. to create a new network full of Magnolia-branded content. At the time, "Fixer Upper" wasn't part of the plan. But in 2020, the couple announced they'd be bringing the show back — and it's going on their new network (per People).
While fans are super excited about the return of this show, many are disappointed, notes CheatSheat. With "Fixer Upper: Welcome Home" being on Discovery+, you'll need a subscription to the streaming platform in order to watch. While there aren't many HGTV shows streaming, those that are you can get either on their website or through Hulu, including "Fixer Upper," per HGTV.
The other major change to "Fixer Upper: Welcome Home" is who we'll be seeing on screen. When "Fixer Upper" first aired, the Gaines kids were young and a constant feature in the part of the episode where Joanna would stage the home the night before the reveal. But as the kids grew, Joanna and Chip could see a change in them. "Toward the end," Joanna told People, "I started noticing, they don't necessarily love this. Now, if they volunteer to be a part, we are more than happy, but we never want to just force it for a scene."
