What is Flipping Out (TV) About?
Flipping Out is a reality television series that was broadcasted on Bravo from July 31, 2007, to November 20, 2018. The series showcases the professional and personal endeavors of Jeff Lewis, a detail-oriented real estate speculator, interior designer, and decorator based in Los Angeles, California. Lewis is known for his unorthodox working style and has been at the center of the show throughout its run. Alongside Jeff is a colorful ensemble that includes his candid project manager Jenni Pulos, loyal housekeeper Zoila Chavez, and his business manager and partner Gage Edward, with several assistants contributing over the series' duration. The dynamics between Jeff and his staff provide both humor and tension, offering an insider's look at the challenges of managing a design business.

The series documents the impact of economic changes on Jeff's business strategies while highlighting his quirky management style and demanding expectations. As well as providing entertainment, Flipping Out has been recognized for its depiction of the real estate and design industry, receiving a nomination for an Emmy Award in the Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program category in 2014.
