He’s back! Accessible Media Inc. (AMI) announced today that Eyes for the Job, starring Chris Judge, returns Tuesday, February 9, at 8 p.m. Eastern on AMI-tv. 

In Season four of Eyes for the Job, viewers follow handyman Chris Judge, who is blind, along with co-host Erwan Fresq, as they take on do-it-yourself projects in their community with help from their travelling workshop in a converted camper van. From renovating kitchens and home offices to backyards and basements, Chris and Erwan tackle DIY with a smile.

In the premiere episode on Tuesday, February 9, at 8 p.m. Eastern on AMI-tv, Chris and Erwan revitalize a deck and yard space, and help homeowner Darren overcome his fear of home maintenance. Future instalments of the 13-episode season include kitchen, home office and community garden renovations around Nova Scotia. Along the way, Chris offers tips and tricks to successful DIY for members of the blind and partially sighted community.

“Chris Judge is a bona fide superstar," says John Melville, Vice-President, Content Development and Programming, AMI-tv/AMI-audio. “Viewers will love the rapport between he and Erwan and, I hope, will take Chris’ lead and gain the confidence to complete their own projects.”

“I want viewers to be entertained when they tune in to Eyes for the Job,” says host Chris Judge. “I also want them to realize, ‘Hey, with the proper planning and forethought, I can tackle these projects too.’”

In keeping with AMI’s mandate of making accessible media for all Canadians, Season four of Eyes for the Job features Integrated Described Video (IDV) making it accessible to individuals who are blind or partially sighted.

Born the son of a carpenter, Chris' interest in building started at a young age. Always eager to learn new skills, that interest grew into a passion for carpentry and other do-it-yourself projects, making Chris a lifelong handyman. He brings a unique perspective to the show as he was also born blind and will share some of his accessibility tips in the hopes of inspiring other individuals who are blind or partially sighted to get creative and try some DIY projects of their own.
