Interior Therapy with Jeff Lewis (Courtesy Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Interior Therapy with Jeff Lewis is an American reality television series that debuted on March 14, 2012 on Bravo. It is a spin off from Lewis' other Bravo show Flipping Out, and features both Jenni Pulos and Zoila Chavez. Spin-off ideas were pitched to Lewis during season two of Flipping Out, and he argued to keep a reality element to any potential new home improvement show. In addition to improving his clients' homes, Lewis interacts with clients' relationships.

Format

The show features Jeff Lewis and Jenni Pulos visiting the homes of clients, and staying with them while a renovation takes place. As well as redecorating, Lewis attempts to rectify problems with his clients' relationships.

Production

During season two of Flipping Out, executives at Bravo began pitching spin-off show ideas to Lewis as they initially saw the original show as having a lifespan of around three seasons. Most of the pitches were generic home improvement shows, and Lewis argued to keep a reality television element in the new project. The show wasn't designed to replace Flipping Out, but instead will air earlier in the year than Lewis' first Bravo show.

Interior Therapy was announced as one of eleven new shows on Bravo on March 30, 2011, with production by Authentic Entertainment. The show features both Jenni Pulos and Zoila Chavez in addition to Lewis from Flipping Out. The cast launched the show at the Bravo presentation at the Television Critics Association in January 2012.

At the end of one of the episodes, the couple split up. One of the producers wanted to film it in a way which would present it as a happy ending, but Lewis argued for a more authentic finish. He later described it as his favorite episode of series one.
