    I was so addicted to HGTV for the first 2 years after we finally got cable....now, it seems like everytime I turn it on it's a re-run... maybe I'm just jaded.... the designed to sell, and sell this house seem scripted to me, ( who would let a realestate agent into thier house with out cleaning in?) same with the apartment show ( rent me???), and the property virgins.... are there really people out there in this day & age, that don't do a little research BEFORE they decide to buy a house? ( okay, I did say I'm probably jaded...) I just saw a program this weekend... early am, was it disaster DIY?... the professional was kind of mean to the slobby home owner... I mean really, if he was able to finish the job w/o help he probably would have... ( yes,...definately jaded.)

    I cancelled direct-tv a year ago. Never watched HGTV much after the quilt and sewing shows were cancelled.

    Same here. We watch HGTV, Law and Order, Top Gear, crime shows, and very little else these days.

    I love HGTV but my husband says he gets worried when I watch it because he thinks I am going to break down a wall or put him to work.
