Vila hosted This Old house the first few years, and later wen on to host his own Syndicated show in the mid 1990s to present
Since Vila left Steve Thomas hosted, replaced by Kevin O'Connor (I understand Steve just wanted to quit). Tom Silva was around with TOH before Vila left, I am sure. Richard Trethewey was there from nearly the start.
I have watch the hole suite of PBS DIY shows when I had cable in the early 1990s, and satellite since 1998.
It all started with Villa hosting,open story why he's gone. Then Thomas, This guy Kevin was actualy a customer, Then guest host. He is from (I Think) newton Ma.) So thats a good story, average gone good.
Norm was "THE MAN"! And if you don't know.... Your just young, thats not a bad thing.
Tom Silva has been there a while and Rich (the plumber) is kinda' new.
