This show is ridiculous. First of all, she is not a good designer; and secondly, who wants to hear all about her life after divorce. Please cancel her show!

I used to look forward to watching HGTV. Nowadays, the hours after hours of the same show is annoying! I like most of the shows (not say yes to the nest... terrible!) but I would like seeing different shows like tv used to be!

Best show ever
May 6, 2019

I love the show. I could watch it all day long everyday. But one thing that bothers me a chicken coop and a chicken nest are two different things. Joanna keeps hanging up chicken nests on the wall calling it a chicken coop which is basically what chickens live in not what they lay their eggs in!

How dare this fraud be allowed to be advertised. This is not Vancouver and should not be allowed to mislead viewers. The host of the series failed as a designer in Vancouver and now misleads viewers that they can purchase large sized homes for values that are fraudulent or at minimum misleading. How does HGTV allow a lie to be displayed. As a person from Vancouver I'm offended by this misleading show

Home Town
April 30, 2019

What happened to Home Town? I love their show! I've noticed that they are no longer showing the show on Monday nights. Has the show moved to a new time/date or are they off the air. I hope they come back. Miss Ben and Erin!

Christina's new show
April 29, 2019

My family cannot believe she got her own design show. If it isn't gray and white shaker cabinets, she wont know what to do. There are a lot better designers on other flip or flop shows as well as desert flippers

House of Spouses
April 27, 2019

We usually like HGTV programs, however we were sickened by this one and had to turn it off. It's a perverted version of Love it or List It. The host explains that it's about a plural family. That's a code word for polygamy. Should Dad have a master suite, where a different breeder sleeps with him every night, or should each breeder have a master suite that he visits each night? They already had 25 kids. Get that guy a vasectomy, please! Be ashamed HGTV. SICK STUFF!

Does this show really have to be a constant rerun day, afternoon & night? There are so many other much better shows. You could play a variety please.

Hgtv is awesome
April 1, 2019

I am so glad that HGTV is a show because it is all I watch. My favorite ones are Fixer Upper, Love It Or List It, Property Brothers, House Hunters and Boise Boys. But my favorite it Gixer Upper and I am not happy of how they quit the show so they can have time to there family. They are both funny and I wish they could come back on HGTV.

Did not have access to this show for many years. Now that I have again, just amazed at how bad the programming is. How does a company like HGTV continue to produce such bad shows and continued repeats of shows? Over & over the same things. Then the Brady Bunch show. Watched for 15 minutes & changed the Chanel.

Still waiting for Boise Boys episodes I paid for but have never been shown.

Have no idea who is in charge, but I would suggest a complete overhaul.

Mixed signals
February 24, 2019

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.
