STAR DESIGNER BOBBY BERK TURNS CHAOTIC COLLECTIONS INTO DREAM DIGS IN NEW HGTV SERIES "JUNK OR JACKPOT?" PREMIERING FRIDAY, DEC. 26, AT 9:30 PM ET/PT
Six-Episode Season Executive Produced by John Cena
New York [Nov. 13, 2025] Design expert, television host and Emmy(R) Award winner Bobby Berk (Queer Eye) will help collectors turn chaos into dream spaces that honor their prized possessions in the new HGTV series Junk or Jackpot?, premiering Friday, Dec. 26, at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT. Executive produced by actor, wrestler and entrepreneur John Cena, the six-episode season will follow Bobby as he meets passionate people who are in desperate need of a life-changing renovation and will soon discover the hidden monetary value of their massive and unusual collections. With humor and compassion, Bobby will hear the emotional stories behind the stockpiles, bring in experts to appraise the items - from a staggering stash of superhero figurines to cramped rooms stuffed with vinyl records and miniature sets that leave nowhere for actual, life-size furniture - and then counsel his clients on what they'll sell to fund the much-needed makeovers.
"This show is about helping people reclaim their peace and sense of self, and it was so fulfilling to help these owners unlock their full potential through this process," said Bobby. "So many of them were overwhelmed, not just by the amount of stuff in their homes, but by the emotions and memories attached to it all. Helping them find clarity and create spaces that reflect who they are was so rewarding."
The series premiere will find Bobby at Patrick's two-bedroom condo that has been overtaken by his beloved collection of marionettes, puppets, figurines and pinball machines. After Bobby hears how the immense trove is affecting Patrick's relationship with his partner Roger, he'll encourage Patrick to part with some of the valuable items to finance a transformative overhaul of his main living space and home office. Once the pieces bring top dollar at auction, Bobby will bring new life to the spaces - and most importantly, calm to Patrick and Roger's lives - with stunning lighting, flooring and furniture as well as custom built-ins that provide the ideal display and essential storage for the cherished keepsakes.
