HGTV

Texas version BLOWS, why would HGTV put a show like this on TV? The absolute worst programming ever. The Orlando version was inspiring until it was no longer on. I don't exactly what's happening at HGTV but the newer programming has a lot to be desired.

Re: Fixer Upper - Basically enjoy the program, Joanna is great, she is a lovely lady & love her work but how she puts up with Chip I don't know. He's rude, always interrupting, is so childish, acts ignorant and disgusting. I don't want to see him drink muddy water from filthy boots, eat roaches, or take off his clothes. He's disgusting, not funny, it's getting old & I will have to stop watching if you can't get him under control.

Tried to watch one episode of HomeTown It's was terrible. I don't get her accent at all. As someone else said it's so exaggerated, I find it embarrassing. All the hanging over each other. Are they trying to convince me they are a couple? As far as saving their town? Saving it from what? I live near there and homes in the historical district have been in demand and cared for forever. Lots of lawyers, doctors and business people always lived there. The place never really went bust like some kind of coal town in PA. That's what it suggest to me. At best you are doing some renovations another buyer would have done and probably better.

Editing is also really poor. Don't know if HGTV paid someone but the cuts of the town look like someone's six year old recorded it on a first generation GoPro. Other stuff looked shaky.

I work at home and watch this HGTV endlessly. Re: Fixer to Fabulous, orig date 11-15-19, But, there's been a real rash of reno's whereby decorators take down useful upper cabinets & replace with relatively useless "open shelving". Sure, it's great for cool staging appearances - but ridiculously absurd for a functional kitchen. Come on, some of these decorators must actually use kitchens & realize the NEED for cabinets to store dry goods, etc. Most cans, boxes are not attractive. And, what's this BS of tearing out perfectly good cabinets and trashing them - disgustingly wasteful. Overall, I like Fixer to Fabulous. But check out photos - there's no storage in after.

I used to like HGTV because it was upbeat and about bringing out the best in people and community through design, and remained fairly neutral on touchy subjects. That has changed. I just watched an episode of Good Bones that spent a significant amount of time talking about Wicken. Ignorance on their part now has them blocked with parental monitoring so that my friends and family won't be caught off guard. Very disappointing.
