First Up: The Season 8 Premiere Episode
The season kicks off with a story that proves the Napiers are pros at turning dreams into reality. In the premiere episode, Erin and Ben step in to help a couple who have faced challenges finding their dream home. They’ll introduce them to a charming mid-century modern house that's just waiting for a loving touch. But wait, there's more! The couple also gets ready to launch a salsa and hot sauce business, so Erin and Ben are tasked with creating a specialty kitchen and greenhouse. Talk about a full plate! This episode is packed with heart, hustle, and plenty of laughter.
In a sneak peek shared by Us Weekly, Erin and Ben reflect on their incredible journey. “Any worthwhile journey should be like a great book that you can’t put down,” Erin says thoughtfully. “Our homeowners give us one part of the story, and the houses give us the other. There are so many opportunities out there, so many unloved houses just waiting for a second chance.”
Ben chimes in, sharing his personal motivation: “When we started trying to revitalize homes in Laurel, we wanted our kids to grow up in a place they loved. And now, we're doing it!” Their passion for community and preservation shines through in every episode.
How Can You Catch All the Action?
Mark your calendars, folks! Home Town Season 8 premieres on Sunday, December 29, 2024, on HGTV and Discovery+. If you're more of a streaming kind of person, the entire season will be available on Max the following day. Don’t miss out on the magic!
Before the season kicks off, Erin took a moment to reflect on the incredible milestone of filming 130 episodes with her husband. “I feel so lucky that my job is to tell happy stories about a place I love with the love of my life at work beside me every day,” she wrote on Instagram. “Feeling so thankful for this production team and the work they do, and wishing I had taken more photos of everyone this year that don’t give away the reveals! That’s a wrap on season 8 part 2, watch it all on @hgtv and @streamonmax starting December 29.”
Fans couldn’t contain their excitement about the new season. One commenter said, “I can’t tell you how much I love your show. You and Ben are so kind, and it shows. Your designs are amazing. There hasn’t been one I didn’t like, and I’ve seen every episode more than once.” Another added, “You guys inspire me every time I watch your show with your love for one another and the good hearts you both have.”

Erin Drops a Tease About a Big Return
In November 2024, Erin shared a cryptic Instagram post that has fans buzzing. She wrote, “When y’all see who installed this oak flooring, you’re gonna FREAK out (hint: it wasn’t @scotsman.co, who used it to stretch ha).” Could this mean the return of fan-favorite Mike Husers, affectionately known as "Mike the Floor Guy"? Many fans certainly hope so. “We need Mike back on the show. His soft, sweet disposition is surely missed,” one commenter wrote, with many others agreeing wholeheartedly.
