I'm an avid watcher of your network, but this show's host is so phoney baloney that practically nothing he utters sounds authentic. And his new promo campaign is so over the top I switch the channel as soon as I see one of these stupid commercials. Doesn't anyone there edit or direct him? Or does he have such an avid following that he continues to get away with this? I finally had to write this review because I just couldn't stand watching him anymore. Someone needs to tell him not to be so arrogant...
Did the dude get kicked many times in the head by a mule? Boring, like watching paint dry. Did HGTV even do a test audience? I feel dumber for having watched it. The guy talks so slow and the show has no excitement. It's like they are all smoking weed in between takes.
My wife and I love HGTV, but Hometown is the worst show they have ever aired. The couple has no onscreen chemistry and their designs are absolutely terrible. I'm sorry, but shower curtains on the front porch. And her artwork looks like something at 3rd grade level. I would ask that this show be cancelled immediately and please don't air the commercial any longer. They are the most annoying thing on TV.
I tried to like it but 10-15 mins in, I thought, what?
She(Erin? I think) is very annoying. Her personality rubs me the wrong way. Why would u let her embarrass herself with those so called watercolor paintings of houses. Unprofessional for sure. I was shocked and embarrassed for her.
The show gave me anxiety it was so bad. Ugh, don't want to say something too mean but it's def a fail.
I used to love watching these two contractors for ideas on renos and decorating. With them creating new shows about building their own homes, it has turned me off both men. They started their televisions careers with shows that helped those of us who struggle get a handle on our economic situations. Now they are showing the world how big they are building, and Brian's wife with "I want, I want, I want!" What a turn off!
This is one of those "You have seen one, you'seen them all" shows. Don't expect Jonathan or Drew or The Magnolia crew.
It always comes to the last reveal when It becomes obvious whether the show was worth watching or not.
Regardless of the degrees the decorator holds to her credit, I feel she does not know the first thing about applying color to small spaces, scale or over accesorizing.
All in all, another low budget disappointment.
OMG this was awful full of reality drama and a decorator that needs to stop playing with her hair. SHE needs to stop winning and what's she can doing. Like watching a bad movie and so slow.
I hope you are not going down hill as I love this show.
This review is for David Bromstad, the host for My Lottery Dream Home. What s handsome personable great host he is! Not many people can hold down a show like that all on their own. He is so charismatic and caring to his clients. He is genuinely interested in them. I hope he gets paid well... he deserves it. Please let him know how handsome and talented he is and that he does not need anymore tattoos (or even the ones that he has). The are taking away from the natural beauty he already possesses.
Let's end the pretense - obviously this is not a happy couple flipping houses as a family anymore. Much of their appeal was built on the relationship between Tarek and Christina and their darling children. Now that that's behind them, the show needs to either revamp completely and show them as business partners; or just cancel altogether. Maybe it could be similar to Love it or List it - no one has any illusions about that relationship / they just work together and have fun. And the Christmas ad - it's all about family? WHY is that still running?
Annoying! Worst show on HGTV. Sick of "get up and do it". The commercial is awful! Fixer upper is my favorite. These people just don't have what it takes to renovate a house. Its just a mish mash of whatever they feel like throwing in it at the time. No style! This show needs to go!
I really enjoy HGTV shows. It is a shame they run Monsanto Ads. Monsanto Roundup is toxic. Monsanto seeds causing agriculture damage and they put farmers who want to produce a good product out of business. Summary, Monsanto has been polluting our soil, seeds, air and water by chemicals including dioxin, PCB and glyphosate for years. Monsanto has been sued for poisoning people and banned from certain countries. In the U.S., they have the best politicians money can buy!
HGTV has gotten so horrible! Nothing but re-runs and what isn't a re-run is a show that is more focused on being diverse than it is having any decent talent or content! They should go back to gearing their programming to a generation that can afford to do the type of renovating shown. The hosts have gotten so over dramatic and unrelatable! Wake up management!
I'm so glad for this show.
We got so tired of Chip & Joanna - too corny and contrived.
This young couple are so lovely and doing such good things in their community.
My only complaint is that someone - a producer or director - has recently been trying to coach them to act like Chip & Joanna - all cornball and making fun of each other. That's not natural for them - it's so sad to see. Just let them be who they are - NOT Chip & Joanna! Do something different!
Disappointed in this weeks Home Town show. I thought that Ben & Erin stood on Christian principals. What kind of witness is choosing a gay couple for your show? To me it says, we condone your lifestyle choice. Is there not 1 show left on TV that doesn't throw this lifestyle choice in our face to try make it seem normal?
Again, I liked the show. But if the Home Town couple decide to cave to the wordly values. I won't be following. I am sorry that I had told a couple of my friends they needed to tune in the weekend before this show aired.
I have to be honest and say that some of the things Karen does are just downright nasty and it really bothers me. But I love Mina! She's the best! But I'll tell you who I think makes the show! It's Jack. What a cutie pie! He is sooooo adorable and sweet! He's a very good baby. I like Tad too. He makes me laugh sometimes and Austin is the sweetest, most kind person ever! His personality is in my opinion, awesome! I love him. He is just cool!
Get rid of Christina already! She's as fake as it gets and completely useless on a home renovation show. What exactly does she do anyway? She only care about her appearance... she does not belong on HGTV!
Have been addicted to HGTV for a long time, and I am so glad to see that I am not the only one who finds Erin on Hometown an arrogant and condescending little twit. Worse yet, she doesn't know squat about decorating; she truly is a wanna be and in no way should be billed as an expert. I spent 30 years as a home decor consultant, but apparently it has never occurred to her that there are people out there that see through her phoniness. Worse yet, her 'just do it comment' is one of the most insulting comments she could make. Anyone who is scripting her certainly didn't do her any favors. Did it ever occur to her that many watching would love to if they only could? At 66, I don't have the luxury of raising my blood pressure because she is stupid, so I won't be watching. Please get rid of her so I feel like watching again.
Flip or Flop with Tarek & Christina could have continued success if the divorce drama was removed from the script. Viewers do not care or need to know who is dating who and if one is jealous of the other. Christina's rolling eyes is immature and unprofessional. I'm glad to see that Tarek is taking the lead and making decisions and most importantly not letting Christina walk all over him. It's really nice to see her not always getting her way.
If Christina can't grow up than perhaps HGTV write her out of the show and let Tarek get back to basics teaching viewers what to do and not do when flipping homes. He has a lot to offer without the soap opera drama.
At first I thought it was too simple. Then... I grew to love it because it was simple, homey and real. Fixer Upper has become Plastic perfection. Sick of it. Flipping Vegas, ditto. Ben and Erin are a breath of fresh air. Leave them alone! Are already starting to get fancier... leave it Down Home! The negative comments here are just used to Plastic and Fake.
Flip or Flop Atlanta is the most absolute worst show they have produced. I'll stick with Tarek and Christina. Love them. Even Texas has just premiered, and they've already beat Atlanta out of the gate. The wife is dry and monotone and he's no better. Maybe if he was matched up with someone other than Anita, it might have potential. Other than that, I can't bear back to back episodes of them!
Answer: There are SO many commercials for Hometown ( more than 6 per hour), I won't be watching it because I am sick of the couple posing and posing. So many commercials mean something is wrong with the show. HELP PLEASE!
Answer: I agree! Landscapes, gardening... something that blends in vegetation to give a nice break from home remodels.
