Flipping Out is an American reality television series that debuted on Bravo on July 31, 2007,[1] and ended on November 20, 2018. The show is centered on designer Jeff Lewis in Los Angeles, California, his executive assistant Jenni Pulos, his housekeeper Zoila Chavez, his business manager and boyfriend Gage Edward, as well as his other assistants and staff.[2] In 2014, Flipping Out was nominated for an Emmy award in the Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program category.[3]

The first season of the show revolved around Lewis' flip projects as he renovated homes and re-sold them for a profit. As the housing bubble burst in 2007, Lewis started to focus more on his home decorating consulting business and less on flipping houses, although in season 4 he considered moving back into flipping small projects on the side.

Flipping Out was renewed for a seventh season that premiered on March 5, 2014.[4] On January 15, 2015, Bravo renewed the show for an eighth season.[5] The show was subsequently renewed for a ninth season, which premiered on July 13, 2016.[6] Bravo renewed the series for a tenth season which premiered on August 17, 2017.[7] In April 2018, the show was renewed for an eleventh season.[8]
