Jonathan Scott, widely known for his role on the popular renovation series Property Brothers, is stepping into a new venture with the upcoming pilot of his daytime talk show, titled *BETTER! with Jonathan Scott*. The announcement was made on his Instagram account on June 10, where he shared exciting details about the show and confirmed that filming for the pilot is set to take place on June 24 and 25 in New York City.
The announcement signals a significant addition to Scott’s already impressive portfolio. Over the years, the 48-year-old has built a reputation as a key figure in home renovation television alongside his twin brother, Drew. Their collaboration has resulted in a thriving media empire, featuring numerous HGTV shows such as Celebrity IOU, Brother vs. Brother, and Property Brothers: Under Pressure.
In his Instagram video, Scott expressed gratitude to his loyal fanbase, stating, “You have graciously invited me into your living rooms for over 15 years with our renovation shows, design projects, and wild adventures.” He maintained a lighthearted tone, joking, “Thank you for putting up with me because frankly, most people can’t.”
The upcoming show promises a diverse array of content, featuring insights from celebrity experts, engaging interviews, and practical advice across various topics including home improvement, food, and health. Scott emphasised that the essence of the show lies in “connecting with people” and strives to provide useful information that enhances viewers’ lives.
While speaking about the concept of *BETTER!*, Scott highlighted his vision: “This is about bringing practical projects and things that will actually make life better for everybody who watches the show.” His commitment to offering valuable content is evident, as he aims to extend the themes explored in his renovation shows to a broader lifestyle context.
Scott boasts a residence in New York City along with his fiancée, actress Zooey Deschanel, making the choice of location for the pilot particularly meaningful for him. He characterised this new chapter in his career as a natural progression, linking the opportunity with his past experiences in home renovation and personal interactions with viewers. “Everything I’ve learned from renovating homes, meeting incredible people, and hearing your stories over the years has led here,” he explained.
While embarking on this new venture, Scott reassured fans that his foundational work in home renovations is far from over. He affirmed, “Property Brothers and home renovations will remain a huge part of my life,” reinforcing that he intends to balance his new show alongside his established series.
In a show of brotherly support, Drew Scott took to the comments section of Jonathan’s post with a playful jab, “Is this going to be a talk show where every episode is 5 hours long? Because when you start talking… you don’t stop!” This touch of humour contributed to the excitement surrounding the announcement.
Other colleagues from the HGTV family have also expressed their enthusiasm for Scott’s new project. Christina Haack, star of The Flip Off, demonstrated her encouragement by liking the post, while Ty Pennington from Rock the Block chimed in with a congratulatory message, stating, “Can’t wait to watch!”
As viewers await the pilot’s airing on CBS Media Venture’s syndication slate in the fall of 2027, the anticipation for *BETTER!* seems to be building within the television community and among fans alike. With Scott’s proven track record in making home improvements accessible and appealing, the new talk show could potentially become a staple in daytime viewing.
As early filming dates approach, there’s a sense that *BETTER!* is not just a talk show but an extension of Scott’s mission to foster community and share knowledge—a mission he has passionately pursued throughout his career.
