Cancelling great loved shows but leaving or introducing ridiculously stupid shows of no interest to someone with a brain
Stupid mistake to cancel Farm House Fixer and Married to Real Estate. We loved those shows and their design.
Especially Farm House Fixer where Jonathan is restoring historic farm homes.
Its so American to do that, but you keep stupid brainless shows like Zillow gone wild,Ugliest house in America !!! Really!!!

Verified ReviewerWho are television
- - HGTV cancels many shows; World's Bargain Dream Homes features European countryside with couples looking at homes but never buying.
Why is this HGTV canceling so many shows and giving us bad TV. These shows look like something they pulled out of the tin can round cylinders that used to hold film.
One show is world's bargain dream homes they take us to beautiful countryside in Europe and then the couples look at the houses but they never buy at the end the review show that the couples never buy. That's okay but every episode I'm about to let y'all go.
User's recommendation: Watch something else another Channel. HD HGTV it's trash TV

Too many naked behinds. You should know...
- - Too much focus on naked behinds and skimpy bikinis.
- - As a female viewer, the camera makes it the focal point.
- - It worries younger women at home.
It's complicated
Too many naked behinds.
You should know that many of your viewers are females.
Me for one and I'm so tired of seeing women's behinds in g string or nearly g string bikinis walking, laying or playing on the beaches you air.
I don't have a problem with bikinis, but it seems your camera people are making it too much of a focal point for my liking and those of the younger women in my home.
- Learning home prices in different areas
- Foolishness
Preferred solution: Less attention to scantily clothed females

Fair criticism
- - HGTV shows featured a bi-racial couple, a gay couple, and a transgender teen.
- - They feel the shows push a social agenda, not design talent.
About 8 years ago, I used to be an HGTV addict. I was watching the show of the two twin sisters in OR.
Their first client was a bi-racial couple, the second clients were gay, and the third client had a transgender teenager. Sometimes I'm pretty slow, but this show made me realize they were not selling their 'talents' they were selling their social agenda. I do not watch HGTV to have my social values influenced. An appropriate percentage of 'out of the norm' situations would have been acceptable.
But EVERY situation? This extends to almost all of the HGTV shows. Are there NO heterosexual same race couples left in America?
None at all? Not according to HGTV!

Why have you changed your shows? All that is on is House Hunters, which I do not like. What happened to Home Town, 100 Day Dream Home, etc.?
Preferred solution: Better shows like you used to have

Hermosa Beach, California
Watch for a long time. But now became more a stardom show rather than HG design and construction.
- - Too much talk about private life.
- - The host is professional and direct.
- - Many shows repeat and feel old.
- - Production year could update prices.
To much talk and private life, instead of purpose of the channel. Professional and straight to the subject "Vacation house for free".
This guy does it all without long talk and self display.
Apart from this, many shows keep repeating and are old. It would be very good idea to find the year of production, so that prices could be actual.
User's recommendation: Good to watch.

Have switched show's to paid only
- - Shows on HGTV are now pay-to-watch.
- - I pay for Discovery but must pay per show.
- - On a fixed income, I can't afford to pay for each show.
I used to watch shows on HGTV all the time. Now everything that I watched has become pay to watch.
I pay for the Discovery Network; now I have to pay to watch the shows on the app. I can't afford to pay to watch each show I want to see. No wonder no one watches your shows. Go back to being free, and people will watch your shows again.
I am on a fixed income; I can't afford to pay for each show. HGTV is the one hurting its viewership.
- Liked the shows shows
- Shows are no longer free to watch
Preferred solution: Them to go back to making their shows free to watch
User's recommendation: Don't bother paying for the discovery app. You still have to pay to watch each show on that app.
