I hope Doug's health is good because tonight I watched Moving up and he looks like he got very very skinny. I have a bad feeling that he's sick.

He really looks sick and sounds kind of weak. What's wrong?

Yes, I agree - he looks thin. Hope his not seriously ill!!

I love the show and also noticed that Doug is looking very thin. Hope everything is okay.

Wow, I watched an episode last night and he looked so thin and frail. The show wasn't the same at all either.

My Wife & I Love Moving Up, and the New Episodes that just started. We noticed how Thin and Sickly Doug is looking in these New Episodes. In addition, he seems much more subdued with the homeowners than in in the older shows, where he pretty much said what he pleased. Would like to see the OLD Doug back!!!
Hope he is OK, and sure would like to see some info on his health.

I agree... I watched Moving Up tonite, (4/12) and he does look thinner, especially in his face... I hope he is ok. I emailed TLC-Trading Spaces and got no reply.

i agree, doug is looking very frail. as a fan, i can only hope that someone will soon give us an answer. why isn't someone responding?

Yep I have seen it too. He looks weak and tired. I hope it's not any long term illness but it's been a few episodes o seen him thinner and less energetic.

Oh My, I wondered if anyone else noticed how sickly Doug is looking. I pray he is okay.

Does anyone have an update on this? My husband and were surprised as well.

I was so shocked to see Doug's appearance on Moving Up last night. He is
so thin and seemed to have none of his usual spark.

I was just trying to find out any information on Doug. We just watched Moving Up and he looks so ill. I guess we were not the only ones that noticed. The addition of all the make up is not a good thing either, it really gives an odd appearance to a very handsome man. I hope he is feeling okay.

Our thoughts exactly....Doug doesn't look well....we've been wondering what's up for months..........ANYONE HAVE ANY INFORMATION? TLC?

Doug is find. I sat down and talked with him for about 20 mins in Feb at a home show in NJ. He has just got back down to his original weight when he started TS. Since he was filming close to home last year - he wasn't eating out alot at fast food and lost weight.

I just saw Doug Wilson in Sullivan, IL as he is opening a restaurant in town. He looked fine. He is in good health as he was also doing the musical Guys and Dolls in town. He did a great job.

Not only did he look EXTREMELY thin, but his make up was ridiculous! It was so heavy, it was VERY OBVIOUS that he had blush and lip color on. I wonder what's up?! Plus the show was rather slow, he wasn't as enthusiastic as usual.

I noticed also that Doug was very thin and had lots of makeup on. I really hope he's OK! He seems different and just...sickly...his loss of weight is really noticeable. Hope he's OK, he's my FAVORITE!!! :):)

Well I've seen him closeup and personal without makeup on and he doesn't look sick. I sat right next to him and when he hugged me he didn't feel boney. Yes he is thin, but he's not a big man, tall- yes, but bone structure wise not large framed. So he didn't look too thin or sickly to me. I have nephew's built like him.

I saw Doug at the Paradice Hotel in East Peoria on May 29 and in Guys and Dolls in Sullivan in June. He looked trim and handsome and was wonderful to all who met him.

Im thinking either AIDS or cancer anyone confirm??

I've never been here before - but I Googled Doug's name just to try and find out what's going on. Doug looks awful! He is extremely thin - his shirt collar hung around his neck. He also seemed weak. In every room he either sat or laid down. I'm concerned.

Doug is not sick! I saw him February and he was find. I talked to the man for 20 mins. He wasn't too thin or sickly looking in person. He has a very busy schedule and is constantly on the run. And maybe doesn’t always eat regularly. Though on the show “Making it Home – Greensboro” they filmed him eating all the time! Right now he's home in Illinois as he just had the opening of his restaurant this weekend.
And I’m sure there are plenty of people from Sullivan, IL that can tell you he’s find.

Well, "Aunt of a fan".. I notice that you say the same thing in every forum about Doug. You say, you've just recently seen him and he is fine (or "find" as you put it)! I really find it hard to believe as everyone else seems to think that Doug looks very ill. Are you his PR person or something? Paid to quash rumors that he is sick until he has a press conference announcing he's seriously ill perhaps??? Sounds fishy to me Auntie Fanny!!!

Why so hostile Leo? Do you want him to be really sick or dying? I'm not the only person who has met him recently and said he looked good and healthy. I mean gosh - when the man gained weight everyone had a comment to make - said he looked terrible and needed to lose a few pounds. Now that he has - they all have him really sick or dying! And for the record I'm not his PR person.

He is fine!!! I see him every day and he is very healthy and at a good weight for his frame. He may be pale - but that is because he is inside all the time - no time in the sun.

He is very very busy with opening Doug Wilson's Jibby's (fantastic place!) his design business as well as all of his TLC shows.

I'm sure he would appreciate the concern - but seriously folks - he is just fine.

Just sat next to him today, and he's terribly handsome and healthy looking!

I just saw Doug last night at his new restaurant~Doug Wilson's Jibby's. He looked wonderful. Yes, he is think but not too thin for his frame. His color looked good and he was happy, friendly, and carrying on conversations with all the patrons. Maybe at the time of the taping he was just exhausted from the total gutting/designing of his new restaurant, doing Guys and Dolls on live theatre, and taping for TLC.
He looked and acted awesome last night~even when he hugged us good night and thanked us for coming into the restaurant.

I live in Sullivan,IL and Doug's resturant, Jibby's, is doing great. He socializes with the locals and he's doing fine. He completely changed Jibby's from what it used to look like, much better improvement! I love that he's brought some class to Sullivan.

Wow, when I noted earlier that plenty of people from Sullivan could vouch for his health - I really didn't think any would post. He's a nice guy and I'm glad to see he has so may supportive friends & neighbors. Have a happy and safe Holiday Season everyone!

Doug was arrested for extreme DUI in Decatur IL last night. Also failure to yield to an emergency vehicle, etc.
See the TMZ.com website

Does anyone know if Doug will be filming any new episodes of Moving Up on TLC? I just love the show and am tired of watching reruns. I sure hope they didn't cancel the show. I hope Doug is OK. I have been reading all the other comments posted and it seems everyone is worried about him.

Actually he's been filming a new show- it airs 1/31 "real estate road test" He'll be filming in NY Feb & March for this show as well. I haven't heard anything about MU.

What happened to Doug's website? What's happening with Doug? Haven't heard anything since his arrest.

Doug is busy filming new episopes of both shows Real Estate Road Test & Moving UP in the New York area. His website I would assume was taken down because of all the negative - mean spirited activity after the arrest.

Judy new eppy of Moving up to be aired Tuesday 7/21 at 8 pm

I'm not buying that Doug is fine. Seriously folks, if you still look way too thin after having layers of clothes on, then hey, something is going on, especially since we all know he weighed more and looked healthier before and the paleness,come on no sun!! I know someone that pale and it's not due to being inside all day. I hope he's fine, I'm a fan, but I'm not buying this story.

All I can say is take a trip to Sullivan, Il and see for yourself.

Oh and by the way does anyone want to comment on the designer insight about going beyond using earth tones? LOL

I'm not a fan of Doug's, but caught a minute or two of MU tonight. I was almost as shocked as when I saw Rock Hudson in advanced stage of AIDS. I surely hope that isn't Doug's problem. -Joyce Allard

I'm sure TMZ and every Tabloid would be printing pictures/story if he was. So we can take that he's not and it's just stress and over extending himself with "all the balls he has up in the air "- as the expression goes.

Depends, here on the east coast we are having cloudy over casted skys, So I don't know if we will even be able to see the Persieds Meteor shower tonight.
What part of the country are you viewing it from?

I am watching an episode of MU. I am shocked at what I am seeing. Doug's hair? Why is it so long? I liked it better short. He was always nice and neat. Now, he looks unkempt. Is he ill? I hope by this time, he is doing better.

OMG, what's worse? His hair or unbuttoned shirts that show off his emaciated chest? He needs a makeover!

I'm watching Moving Up right now after having NOT seen it for awhile and am shocked at Doug's look! He's loaded up with make-up, his hair is long and, dare I say it? cut in a feminine style. His nipples were showing thru his pullover shirt! They almost broke thru the TV screen! ;-) Seriously, what is all this about???

Okay, it's a week later and I thought I'd tune into Moving Up and see if my reaction to Doug's appearance would be the same as last time. It's different. It's worse. I can't believe this is the same man from Trading Spaces ("man" being the questionable noun). He looks weird and feminine and downright creepy. The eye make-up, the hair, the rosy lips. It's enough to make me sick. What is the DEAL????

I agree - It looks more like he's transitioning into a woman. I wouldn't be surprised if that is the reason for his appearance.

I thought it was just me wondering about the hair and the weight.

I just saw Doug today...I was so appalled by his appearance, I felt compelled to google him, and see if other people felt the way I do...yessiree!!! My exact words were that he looked like a girl, and creeeeeepy!!! I can't believe someone else thought the same thing...something is up...older episodes were on as well, when his hair was short...and he looked handsome...like a guy...it's repulsive to watch him...imoho....

His hair was long for a Movie he filmed this year - he may not have cut it yet in case any refilming has to be done. While I agree I prefer his hair short - saying he looks creepy (or a woman) is a little over the top . . . .
