Canadian siblings Drew and Jonathan Scott made their HGTV debut in 2011.
That combo proved to be a winning one.
Not so in “Backed By the Bros,” though.
This time, the Scotts hand the keys to the investors they’ve chosen to assist.
Of course, ignoring the Property Brothers' counsel can come with some serious consequences.
In fact, the show’s whole premise is quite outside the realm of how they’ve usually operated.
“It’s hard not to be in the driver’s seat!”
Drew Scott told HGTV, emphasizing how unique their new show is compared to all their others.
“It’s completely different from any show we’ve done before.”
Are we control freaks?!"
“It’s not just about the property,” Jonathan Scott told HGTV.
“We’re looking for the right investors, too.
Those are people who are willing to roll up their sleeves and get stuff done.
“Helping families has always been our number one goal and motivator,” Jonathan explained to HGTV.
“If they can turn these projects around, they can be real moneymakers,” he said.
The possibilities are pretty amazing.”
That said, the Scott brothers admit they became deeply invested in the projects they advised.
“We have a lot on the line, too, Jonathan Scottexplainedto HGTV.
“Our time, reputation, and resources, which are not unlimited,” added Drew. "
Utilizing the lessons they’ve learned, they’re eager to pass on that hard-earned experience to their proteges.
Those complaints surfaced on social media.
“Sometimes, they’re teaching us new ways to approach things.”
“Many people do,” he explained.
They want to invest, they want to try and provide more for their family.
“I’m like … ‘You are gonna lose everything,'” he recalled.
It’s pretty incredible.”
