Loved Wed. nite line-up, anything Candace Olson, Antonio Ballatori & Chewy, Sarah Richardson, Sabrina Soto, anything John Gidding, etc. THEY ARE THE HEART AND SOUL OF HGTV! Now you offer House Hunters & old reruns. HGTV was my go-to place to watch "Master Designers" create beautiful spaces. They are all gone except in reruns. What are you thinking? I rarely watch HGTV any more.

You are so right. Used to love the Sat night lineup. Love For Rent, Curb Appeal, most of the decorating shows, Rental Property. Now we are stuck with that horrible Love it or List it everyday of the week. It is being shoved down our throats. I rarely watch this network now and it used to be my favorite.

I agree so much!! I am a long time HGTV viewer, even wanted to change providers during the contract disputes. But OMG get over Love It or List It! I hate every thing about it, and it is on and advertised nonstop. Please, Enough of it! I want design shows, not scripted drama. Sarah Richardson, Monica Pederson, David Bromstad, John Gidding, Lisa La Porta, Taniya Nayak, to name a few that I miss. And the Kitchen Cousins! The Guys of Wed Nite (but not the new Prop Bros Show - too much Scripted Drama)

Please HGTV Powers That Be, Listen to your viewers!

I too agree! There used to be a variation of shows, but now it's the same show or subject, over and over. I used to watch HGTV all day long on weekends, but now I hardly ever turn it on. They shoved Holmes down our throats and now it's Love It or List It. I remember shows like Room By Room and If Walls Could Talk...back then it was different subjects, not about buying a house on every single show. I had to check to see if I was the only one that feels like this and glad to find out I'm not.

I also agree. This used to be my favorite network. I used to have it on all weekend, but don't anymore. Their parent company now describes HGTV as the Home "Entertainment" network. No longer Home and Garden TV. If you want decorating or gardening ideas they direct you to their website. So disappointing...

Love It or List It has the same script every show, the same format, the same designer redos. Is this "Entertainment"? No! Not for me. Obviously, no one would ever really hire a David or a Hilary. Yet, still, HGTV is so in love with it that it is all day, every day.
Who is being "Entertained"?

What about Elbow Room? Fantastic new show! Is it even advertised? No! Were Sarah and Candice even advertised? No. Just that horrible LIoLI.

Yuk.

I agree with all of you! I use be hooked on HGTV and now it's so boring! I don't understand did all the former designer leave the network? These house hunters shows have taken over!!
