Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson is returning to her Canadian roots for a new HGTV Canada series.
Today, Corus Studios announced the greenlight of new original series called Pamela Anderson’s Home Reno Project that stars the homegrown celebrity.
Set to premiere on HGTV Canada in 2022, the eight-part series follows Anderson as she returns to the stunning coast of Vancouver Island to fulfill her lifelong dream of transforming her late grandmother’s abandoned legacy property into a spot she and her family can permanently call home.
Sprawling over seven acres on the shore of the idyllic town of Ladysmith, B.C., the series centers on the massive renovation of the property. Anderson purchased it over 25 years ago, promising to keep it in the family.

Ready to give the rustic ocean-view property a proper refresh, Anderson is set on executing her vision, project managing every aspect of the transformation, from architectural design and functionality, to detailed interior finishes.
Viewers can watch Anderson’s renovation dreams come true with the help of her new husband and local carpenter, Dan Hayhurst (who she married on Christmas Eve in a Vancouver Island ceremony), her mother Carol Anderson, and local crew, designers, and craftspeople.
“Corus Studios is thrilled to work with Pamela Anderson and capture this incredible undertaking of her lifelong dream,” said Lisa Godfrey, Senior Vice President of Original Content and Corus Studios. “The series speaks to our ongoing development strategy of telling unique stories with perfect balance – showcasing real-life experiences while preserving incredible transformations that spark intrigue for a wide-range of audiences on platforms around the world.”
Corus Studios will distribute Pamela Anderson’s Home Reno Project internationally.
As for Anderson, it sounds like she's loving the west coast life and has spent most of her time on Vancouver Island as of late, kissing California goodbye.
On a January 26 post, the star announced her departure from the social media space.
"This will be my last post on Instagram Twitter or Facebook. I've never been interested in social media and now that I'm settled into the life I'm genuinely inspired by reading and being in nature I am free," said the post. "Thanks for the love. Blessings to you all."
