“Fixer Upper” has always been ripe for poking fun at. And now, a new parody has just hit the interwebs, complete with Chip Gaines’ silly humor, ridiculous price tags, and an insufferable couple. Folks, meet Bicker Upper.

Cece Trask and Tuesday Grant, the duo behind sketch comedy group Not Spicy Enough, created this “Fixer Upper” parody. In the “episode,” Joanna (in a long, raven-haired wig) and Chip (with his classic sweat-stained baseball tee and cap) overhaul a home owned by Del Gillibrand. His wife Gadget, who was previously his own tumor he had removed and jarred, “now suffers from crippling anxiety, IBS, and cranklin’.”

“To fully redo the interior and exterior of this four bedroom, five bathroom, 6,000-square-foot house, we have about a $500 budget, which should be more than enough,” “Jo” tells the camera.

It hits a lot of those squares on your “Fixer Upper” bingo card, like constant use of the word “babe,” awkward cameos by the Gaines children, and Chip calling Joanna JoJo. No mention of shiplap, however!
