on “30 Rock,” hosts the new HGTV show “Zillow Gone Wild.” “It comes from the Instagram page that was created by our producer Samir Mezrahi. We go to some of the homes featured there,” McBrayer, 50, told The Post. “I get a tour, and it is indeed wild.
Some of these things are bonkers. My favorite thing is meeting the homeowners…It is one of those lessons you learn: there’s a lid for every pot. It was lovely to meet the people behind these crazy houses, and hear their story, like, ‘Now I understand why you decided to deck your entire house like a pirate ship.’” Airing Fridays (10:30 p.m.) and also streaming on Max, the show follows McBrayer as he takes viewers inside of unusual and “wackadoo” homes.Although the Instagram account has nearly 2 million followers, McBrayer is not among them.
“I am what they call a tech idiot,” he said. “I’m not on social media. But even outside of that, my only assignment was to not look at the Instagram page, because they wanted me to see it and catch that reaction on camera.
So, if someone gives you an assignment of ‘No homework,’ you say yes!” Homes featured on the show include a dwelling in an abandoned missile silo, an abode in an old school with a chalkboard in the bedroom, a home that was supposedly the inspiration for Snow White’s cottage, and more. McBrayer tours a total of 24 homes. He said that it’s unlikely he’d star on the show, outside of hosting it.“An abandoned missile silo in a Nebraska cornfield – never in a million years would I look at that and be like, ‘I want to live here!’ But what was so fun is, you find people where that’s exactly what they want,” he said.
