We enjoyed the first 2 seasons of The Craftsman immensely! We love Chip and JoAnna Gaines and their Fixer Upper shows. But we’re wondering why Magnolia Network has so many reruns of their older shows and don’t renew wonderful shows such as The Craftsman. Please rethink your process and give us viewers shows we want to see! Like I said, we LOVE Fixer Upper but we don’t need to see reruns for the tenth time. Please consider renewing The Craftsman for season 3. Thank you for your time if you read this.

I was fortunate enough to visit The Craftsman's mill, the Blue Ox, twice. Amazing place and people. Eric Hollenbeck is a really nice guy, just as he appears on the show. He's the real deal, kind human being, who is wonderfully talented and gives back to his community. I've watched both seasons and really, really hope to see a third.

I totally love this program, and have binge-watched the available episodes 2 or 3 times. I love the part philosophy, part skills, all humaneness of Mr. Hollenbeck. I really hope we see a lot more of him and hear his stories. It’s an oasis against the mass of goop that TV has become.

Thought with Norm gone who could replace him. Well Eric is doing a fine job and his teams skills are second to none. Yes we need Season 3 and many more after that.

My husband and I truly enjoy each episode of The Craftsman! Eric Hollenbeck speaks from his heart with such great insight and inspiration. He is soothing in this time of fast paced, chaotic life. The area, his family, his helper, the community feel, his joy for his passion on woodworking, all bring joy to us and the many people who we’ve talked to about this program!
Please bring Season 3 to your viewers!

The Craftsman is a refreshing change from many of today's home reno shows that seem more about creating drama (or showcasing their hosts) than about the craft. Some of them drive me crazy when the renovators are competing with each other for speed, or when they are racing against time because the homeowner is only an hour away. (the homeowners have waited six months, why can't they wait another couple of days!). Eric takes his time with each project, placing an emphasis on quality, and not profit margin. We need more shows like this!

I Hope you will bring season 3 to us. Eric is such a wonderful human being and as I watch each show I learn so many things and it reminds me of growing up in the Northwest. I so identify with his views on doing things right and helping people. I laugh and cry and nod my head in agreement. His show that included Viêt Nam and his struggle later in life taught me that I have more work to do with Viêt Nam than i realized. As a woodworker I learn so much. Thank you for bringing Eric to life and let’s continue the learning and the journey.

When I found the Craftsman, I knew I had found a part of my life growing up. His ingenuity is something most people needed in order to survive. You needed common sense and wisdom, and Eric Hollenbeck has those qualities and we enjoy every moment of every show. He takes his incredible expertise,adds in common sense, a dash of humor, and creates a wonderful story. Please continue with this show. It is so needed.

Please renew the Craftsman show on Magnolia. We love watching Eric with his old tools and the know how that he has to remake so many different things.

Please, we need more of The Craftsman and Eric Hollenbeck. Why? He's the perfect way to teach how to do things RIGHT! My Dad built the home I grew up in and I paid attention to his being a carpenter. Later when I was working in my profession of being an advertising photographer, I needed lots of different disciplines, carpenter, electric, and others so the value of doing things RIGHT THE FIRST TIME bubbled up and was a life lesson. For folks going in the trades today, this show is a must -see. I think of Eric when I go in my shop plus I have a neighbor who is on a plane, though a smaller scale, than Eric and I'm glad we're friends. I've also told more than a few folks to watch this program since it had tremendous worth!

Please bring Eric and his coworkers/family back! Pretty please…. The talent and stories on every episode of “The Craftsman” were remarkable. Eric brought such a refreshing aspect to each show with his love of his craft, delightful laugh and gift of storytelling. My husband and I looked forward to watching every episode. We loved everything about the show and truly hope for its return with Season 3 and beyond.

Thank you to Eric and everyone involved in making this wonderful show!

I haven’t looked forward to a show on tv in a very long time until The Craftsman came on. Please renew this program as it not only is informative but Eric has such insight so valuable in the day and age.

can't recall how long it's been since i've looked forward to a television program. eric hollenbeck has certainly restored that excitement. one cannot watch any episode of the craftsman without learning something interesting. i have the highest hopes that the fans will be allowed to enjoy eric, his skills, his wisdom, and inspiration for a third season.

We love Erik Hollenback. Someday, we plan on traveling to Eureka CA. The town looks so impressive. We could watch him for hours. He is a gem in the rough. Please renew his show.

Each of us is a special gift.
Eric has continually demonstrated life lessons incorporating craftsmanship into a life well lived. What an inspiration. As he has said, “it isn’t about money”
Please renew.
Thank you,
Karen

The Craftsman is an excellent show and brilliant Eric Hollenbeck is so gifted. I hope there is another season of it. It is unique and special all in its own way as he is.

My sister told me about this show. She said watch it and tell me what you think. I immediately thought I was watching my father. He was a British Columbia logger, welder, mechanic, woodworker. He built his family a home by taking a train station apart. Eric even looks like him. Love this guy. Please bring back another season

I binge watched season 1 & 2 and really enjoyed every minute. Northern CA and the giant redwoods are one of my favorite places on Earth. I have traveled through Eureka many times and now will have to make it a goal to visit Blue Ox for a tour.

Best new show on Magnolia Network hands down. Very glad there will be a season 2 and will expect / hope for a season 3 and beyond.

I'm so glad to know Eric is coming back. One of my favorite shows. Eric is so honest and humble, but a genius in many respects. I want to also thank Magnolia Network for putting on decent and clean programming. My wife and I have quit watching almost every channel but Magnolia. It is Eric and others that have won us over full time. You can't watch the Craftsman doing what he was born to do and not notice the love his family has for each other. I look forward to many more seasons of The Craftsman and family. Thanks again Magnolia Network.
