Actor and Comedian Mike Epps is returning to his hometown of Indianapolis to enhance it in the new HGTV series “Buying Back the Block,” coming to HGTV on Wednesday, November 8, at 9 and 10 a.m. ET/PT. Mike and his wife, television producer and design enthusiast Kyra Epps, who’ve already transformed an abandoned firehouse on the block into their stunning new family home, will continue improving the neighborhood and restoring a sense of community with more property renovations.

In the two one-hour episodes, the duo will update each house, adding modern amenities and keeping the original charm, to create affordable and beautiful places for families to buy or rent. Driven by his passionate vision, Mike will be hands-on as he oversees the projects, including the overhaul of his grandmother’s house, alongside his expert construction team.
