At this point, I wouldn't watch Hometown just out of principle. The commercial is played non-stop - nearly - and Erin is so annoying with her "Just do it!". I have watched the show twice to give it a chance. The designs are so choppy and lack luster. Erin, once again, is so immature with her hanging on Ben, sitting on his lap (weird on a make over show) and her fake enthusiasm. Ben has some charm but Erin's lack of talent is overpowering. Loose the show!

Please stop running the commercial so many times or redo it. I am so sick of hearing Erin say Just Do It... Grrr. So aggravating. She need to stop with the child like water color pictures. It's ashame. Some people are not made for TV.
Ben has talent with the wood but that is the only I intesting thing about the show. I am not a mean person but I love watching the Fixer Upper Reruns and the Hometown commercial is driving me to be mean.

I remember when this was the " home and gardening TV " it is just hour after hour of decorating at price's that most people can't afford. "Our home town" as cute as it is, once a week please. Not enough quality for a marathon. There used to be gardening info and gardening design. Now there is nothing. Buyers boot camp, I have to stream, really, just air it and delete an episode of house hunters international. Get something new please. Dear god, help this channel. I used to be a junkie, now I hardly watch. Dam, another good thing gone bad.

I tried to watch this show the first time it was on. It did not work. This show is boring and Dan is so uncomfortable it is funny. Now, I cannot believe you are bringing this show back. Horrible choice. They are awful and you are shoving this show down our throats with all the advertising. These people are so boring and Dan is really bad. They put the B in boring. Please get rid if this nightmare of a show. They are not likable the show just stinks.

I have a love/hate relationship with Hgtv.

Hosts that are top notch, like Love It or List It, Income Property, Buying and Selling by Property Brothers, and NOW Home Town! Im an armchair architect, so love to watch the good or bad designs, but it is the Hosts that make the show for sure! Hosts like David of Lottery Winners, Lana of Flea Market Flip, and the Mom on Good Bones are too much. Nicey nice, short on fill in comments and personality to keep the time going, and sometimes SO boring. I cant believe these shows are still being watched by anyone!

Since it seems that my Hilary and David dont have new shows (why not?), Im very happy to now have Ben and Erin, of Home Town! They are so knowledgeable, engage with we viewers in a Real way, and are born hosts.

Im surprised by any negative reviews, because I feel Im in sync with most people. I love them both, and love the idea of home town. Five stars, what fun, and Thank You!

I like HGTV. I watch for ideas, insight, or just to see what's new design wise. I watched my first Flip or Flop Atlanta today. As the Corsini's progressed through the purchase, and reno they were working on gutting and kitchen design, had progressed to painting the exterior brick façade and adding clapboard siding when they discover that the crawlspace has serious water infiltration and erosion issues, degraded footings, and a support columns in excess of 10' high. What got me was that they bought a house gutted and started remodeling and never assessed the underlying structure? Really. So there incompetent, disengaged, both or just the bright white smiles for Non Reality TV. Mark said at least three Xs he had not looked at the crawlspace. Cut to commercial and they're picking out tile. Whoa! Hey Buddy... You are a "licensed" contractor right? At least pretend to do your due diligence. Will not watch this disingenuous show again. No credibility at all.

I watched a number of these shows and next to fixer upper Home Town rips off the people. For 50 grand fixer upper would give you wonderful upgrades and home town gives you so much less. The people actually act impressed, whereas I would be pissed off. I believe it is in their designs. No where near the class if Fixer Upper. Both Home Town people dress sloppy and even their house isn't that great considering what they try to portray. Sorry guys, your work doesn't have the flair of Fixer Upper and you are a lot more expensive.
