Erin And Ben Napier’s Home Town Returns To HGTV: Here’s What To Expect!

Hey there, home improvement fans! If you’ve been eagerly waiting for Erin and Ben Napier to bring their charm and renovation magic back to your screens, well, the wait is almost over! Their beloved show, Home Town, is set to return to HGTV. And guess what? Before the next season kicks off, the couple is also starring in a holiday special that's sure to warm your heart.

When Can You Catch the Next Episode of Home Town?

Mark your calendars, folks! The next episode of Home Town will premiere on January 7, 2024, at 8 p.m. EST on HGTV. But here’s the best part—if you can’t wait to watch it on TV, don’t worry. You’ll also be able to stream the episode the same day and time on Max. So whether you’re a fan of traditional TV or prefer streaming, you’ve got options!

Is Season 8 of Home Town on the Horizon?

There’s been a bit of confusion about what’s coming up next for Home Town, so let me clear things up for you. Season 7 of the show has already aired 18 episodes on HGTV before taking a break back in April. But here’s the scoop: Erin clarified on Instagram that “season 7 is split in two.” This means viewers will first get to see “the second half of season 7” when the show returns in the new year. And after that? You guessed it—season 8 is on its way! Filming for the eighth season began in October, even before the second half of season 7 hit the airwaves.

What’s Up With Ben Napier?

Now, here’s something different you might notice when the show returns. The January 7 episode will have a slight twist compared to previous seasons. Ben will be on the sidelines, recovering from shoulder surgery he underwent back in March. While he’s healing, Jim Rasberry and Josh Nowell are stepping in to help Erin renovate a home for a family of six in the charming town of Laurel, Mississippi. Erin gave fans a sneak peek behind the scenes of season 7 on Instagram in October, sharing some heartfelt words along with the post.

“That’s a wrap on 110 episodes! Seven seasons of #HGTVHomeTown seems impossible,” she wrote. “On the last day of filming a season, we have the Laurel legend for lunch: Vic’s. Love this crew and this show, about pretty houses to some, a ministry of community to me and @scotsman.co. Thank y’all for watching when part 2 of season 7 starts airing soon!”

What’s in Store for Erin and Ben Napier’s Holiday Special?

But wait, there’s more! Along with the second half of season 7 and the highly anticipated season 8, Erin and Ben are also set to appear in a holiday special this year. The one-hour program, titled Home Town Holidays, will air on HGTV on December 17 at 8 p.m. EST. In this special episode, the couple will revisit some of the homeowners they’ve worked with in past seasons and surprise them with thoughtful handmade gifts. It’s a heartwarming way to celebrate the season and the impact their show has had on so many lives.

And if you’re wondering about last year’s holiday project, Erin and Ben made a splash by starring in a Christmas movie called A Christmas Open House on Discovery+. Who would have thought that Laurel, Mississippi, would become the setting for such a magical film? Erin herself was surprised, saying, “It felt crazy that anyone would make a movie in Laurel, Mississippi, and the people in Laurel, Mississippi, also thought it was crazy. Not something I ever would have put on my bingo card of life.”
