As I’ve said before, I don’t watch much television. There was a time when I did, but when reality TV became so popular, I quit watching as much. I would rather watch a 30 minute sitcom than watch most reality shows. However, I do have one station I watch most nights. It’s at night because when I go to bed, I usually turn the TV on this channel, set the timer for an hour, and am usually asleep before it turns off. This channel is HGTV. I like to watch Property Virgins, House Hunters, and, on occasion, I get to watch one of the decorating shows.
The show, Property Virgins, help people find and purchase their first home. The people on the show have never bought a house before and usually do not know how the process works. The people usually have a list of wants and don’t wants for their home. During this process they learn that you don’t always get what you want. And sometimes, the people usually have an unrealistic view of what a house costs. The host will show them about three houses. Sometimes it’s what they want and sometimes, it’s not. If the people don’t like the house, it’s usually for something that easily changed, such as painting the walls or getting new flooring. It’s just a big learning process for the people and can be helpful even to people who aren’t property virgins.
The other I like to watch is House Hunters. These aren’t property virgins. It’s usually somebody relocating to a different city or state. They are shown three different houses and sometimes the house is just what they are looking for and sometimes not. I like to watch this show and try to guess which house they will choose. I also like to watch this show because I can pick up decorating ideas and I get dream about what kind of house I would like to own one day.
