Norm retired from This Old House and New Yankee Workshop. I think he would have made more Yankee Workshop episodes but financing became an issue. According to Wikipedia he has bought a new 'old' house in Rhode Island and is building a new workshop and learning shipbuilding. Roger Cook on This Old House unfortunately got very ill and passed away. They did a special about him. Tom Silva and Richard Trethewey are still on the show though. Since WB/Discovery bought This Old House they changed the format up. Now they show 3 houses a season in about 8 episodes each with 2 new builders across the country. They do one house a season in the Massachusetts area. A lot less showing how things are built though but I get it America has a short attention span these days.

This one cat we had would, if he was sleeping wake up, or come running from the other rooms when he heard Bob Ross's voice on tv. And he would sit there and watch the whole episode. God help you if you changed the channel lol. When company was over and wanted to watch something different he would protest . Then when the episode was over he'd go back to whatever he was doing before.
