    All the best Tommy. I've loved you for years along with Sarah. May the future hold many good things as you soar! Open hearts, doors and arms for a big hug...you are the best!

    Oh, I just love him! He's got such an incredible soul. You can feel his sincerity and earnestness with respect to his offer to help struggling designers. I've enjoyed his work in your magazine for years. Oddly, this is the first time I've heard him on video. I'm sure he's done plenty of them, per his comments, but what a treat! Genuinely nice human!

    I don't know how old I expected Tommy to be. But 50 was NOT what I expected. Although it makes sense. He's been on our screens for so long. He looks awesome!

      That wouldn't be logistically possible though based on how long he's been associated with Sarah and HGTV. He had to at least be in his 40s minimum.

Please, Tommy, consider your own You Tube Channel - I've suggested before the idea for your own Show called Tommy's Take Aways or Tommy's Away Takes (as you love travel, exploring, educating and always notice the most un-notable things!)

    Oh Tommy, I am so glad I chanced across this posting as I’ve not seen you in so long! Yes, indeed, you so deserve/need to have your very own enterprise! It is long over due in fact. Of course, we fans adore you two (Sarah and you) as colleges in design and presentations, but it was observed early on the qualities, intellect, talent and vivacity which your presence brought to the scene. Please, please do more postings particularly at this stage of plague (Covid, say no more, say no more) as we shut-ins desperately need a blip of light, a dash of really good taste and your inevitable shinning wit to brighten our endless days. Blessings and cheery good luck in your coming enterprise and do keep us posted here in sunny old California.

    It's been 3 years since that interview. I have watched Tommy Smythe. & Sarah Richardson in reruns of all they did together since 2020 . Working so well together with talent & some odd taste but works well who & how the clients are well pleased. He looks so great at 50 at that time. Can't believe it very good looking talented & works hard love his humor to. Had no idea He went solo thought he & Sarah were still together as working partners. Toronto i am familiar with it as that was my vacation spot is a awesome city when Design Inc was filmed there. Everything & the best to you Thomas Smythe. Great interview at a time of this terrible widespread of Covid 19 your shows kept my company at home very well. ❤

    Tommy is great but the video is called a sneak peek into his home which it really wasn't. The hallway could have been shown and discussed but it was difficult to film a windowless hallway with a laptop, whereas a room would have more available light. I hope we can see some of Tommy's home in the future.
