There comes a point in everyone's life where the sound of the "House Hunters" theme song or Chip screaming "Demo Day" brings an unreal amount of happiness. On top of the joys of spending a nice Sunday morning catching up on your favorite HGTV show, you're also educating yourself on things like load bearing walls and foundation issues. Time well spent, right?
There are quite a few things all of us can relate to when we are obsessed with HGTV.
1. You question how this couple ever got married?
I mean if they can't stop fighting and arguing when the cameras are around-- what is it like in privacy? One wants an open concept with a modern feel and the other wants an old style cabin in the woods. There is no way this is going to end well.
2. When the wife says, "This would be perfect for a nursery one day."
And the husband just stands there with a blank expression on his face. Is national television really the best time to bring this up?
3. What ever happened to Suzanne Whang?
My childhood was practically built on her starting off each "House Hunters" episode. Then one day she just disappeared.
4. You get angry when someone says "House Hunters" is fake.
Um every single TV show you watch is fake too, what's your point? Don't ruin this for me.
5. You've highly considered living internationally.
If these English speaking families can do it, so can I right? So many options.
6. Or moving to a state where $200,000 gets you a mansion.
I might be in the middle of no where, but at least I'd have a nice house?
7. Maybe Wako Texas?
"Fixer Upper" could make my wildest dreams come true.
8. You would rather meet Joanna and Chip than any other celebrity.
Who cares about Kim and Kayne. I just want to hangout with Joanna and Chip on their farm all day. And possibly become best friends? Is that really too much to ask?
"Shiplap" is part of your vocabulary now.
Just another important lesson courtesy of HGTV.
You cringe every time Chrstina and Tarek try to be like Joanna and Chip.
Please stop. You're show is great, but it will never be "Fixer Upper" and you guys aren't that country couple.
Does anyone ever stay in budget?
Honestly it doesn't matter if the budget is $100,000 or a million. You're going to go over it and we all know it.
You've come to the conclusion that "First Time Flipper" is never a good idea.
I've never seen a project go smoothy on this show. Just a whole lot of tears and regret.
Every single person on this planet wants an open concept.
My jaw will hit the ground the first time I hear someone say they don't want to be in the living room, kitchen and dinning room all at the same time.
"Tiny House Hunters" either freaks you out or has you thinking about it.
I mean I could probably live in something the size of a large closet if I really wanted to?
You lose it everytime they talk about how "small" a tiny house is.
"How are we going to have all the family over for Christmas dinner here?" Simple: you're not.
You roll your eyes each time they bring up paint color.
Apparently paint color can make or break a house, even if it's drastic under their budget. Clearly they don't understand that paint color can be changed.
Honestly HGTV shows give me anxiety and happiness all at the same time. So what's not to love? There's nothing that makes me more proud than picking which house they were going to buy-- and I don't plan on stoping anytime soon.
