I used to love watching this show. It was great and taught me to be brave enough to try to do things for myself.

Dec 2023: Yes! Remember watching this from a Detroit Suburb on CBC Windsor (Channel 9). Just across the Det. River. She reviewed a home computer or two as well.

I've been hunting for this show. I hadn't seen it for years.

I met Mary in person in 1982 when she was on a promotional tour. She went to the local Sears in Burnaby. I was so star struck!

Mary Bellows was funny in this show. The Discovery Channel showed this in 1991 in U.S.A . Love this show. And thank you.

What I loved about this show, is that all her projects seem to be on the edge of becoming disasters. lol

This is literally the only video I can find of this show.

I loved this show. What a cool lady.

i was humming a tune today and realized it was this show, 38 years later!

I always recall the one when they were meant to repot plants but the table suddenly collapsed in front of them.

Was I the only one who thought she might have been having a little extracurricluar activities going on with John???? lol

You can see Hoover taking a dump behind the swings at 6:00

I remember her doing oil change on her car and leaving drain plug out so all oil ended up on ground

Yeah I’m pretty sure they were scripted. I remember her installing a water filter and forgetting an O ring or something and having to take it all apart again.

Mary was just my type....loved this show while it lasted.

Sure wish that the theme at the end weren't truncated!

Do it yourself was a good show, not like Know-it-all Mike Holmes!!!

Yep. Came by as very honest, just tips and tricks but from people who seemed to be figuring it out themselves too.. with bloopers that while probably scripted showed you what could go wrong and that it was ok to make mistakes.

Sell-out Mike Holmes.

I never realized when I was a kid how she put her dogs in harms way all the time.
