American Dream Builders: Season 1, Episode 1

1 - 1:

Renowned designer Nate Berkus hosts NBC's bold new one-hour reality-competition series "American Dream Builders." Showcasing the talents of the most accomplished designers and home builders in the country, "American Dream Builders" pits 12 talented contestants against one another in a high-stakes competition designed to push everyone's creative reach. Joining Berkus on the show as judges are former NFL player-turned landscape architect Eddie George and interior design expert Monica Pedersen. This week, the teams tackle two Tudor-style homes across the street from one other. Team Red attempts to build a bathroom vanity from a repurposed work bench and create a new dining room table out of the original kitchen's beloved hardwood floors. Team Blue must decide what they should do with the master bedroom. In a surprise twist for the contestants, Berkus invites a "neighborhood council" to vote on which house they feel is the best makeover. In the end, one designer from the losing team will be sent home.
