Inside HGTV

I highly suspect that this is the way that HGTV choses & names it’s shows.

1. First they think of a cool title & then create a show around it. Even if the title is stupid. Even if the show shouldn’t be on TV. Case in point: Blog Cabin. Yes there is a show where they build a log cabin based on designs from a blog. I’m sure this idea was hatched because someone in the break room said “Log cabin? Isn’t that like a blog cabin?” It wasn’t funny then, & it isn’t funny now.

2. HGTV they love their puns. I’m sure that they do so many complete kitchen remodels just so they can say “We got rid of everything & the kitchen sink.”

3. Most of the rooms lately seem to be painted green just so they can joke about being environmentally friendly.

I love HGTV but I liked it a lot better before they got all punny.
