I want that! (NOT!)

April 13th, 2006 at 05:43 am

Just had to rant a little bit. I have always loved the neat and frugal decorating shows on HGTV, but I am becoming digusted enough to quit watching. The new shows, "I Want That", "I Want That BATHROOMS" AND "I Want That KITCHENS". Get REAL people! Talk about blatant consumerism! Okay, maybe someone might like to watch a show about new gizmos and doo dads, but it does nothing to those trying to save money and live life a little more frugally. The should rename it "Hey, Look What you Can't Afford" or "For the Insanely Spendcrazy Cagillionaire".
Anyway, thank you for letting my get that off my chest!

    I'm with you, I can't watch most of this stuff lately. I used to enjoy some of the decorating shows (jealous of those who didn't have to bolt furniture to the floor or walls, those that could have lamps and what nots sitting around).........but now, it is just one long commercial it seems. Another reason I should drop the cable TV come summer.

    I agree! Why are these shows so unrealistic? I watched this show once and gave up. Nothing I ever would buy, so why bother watching?

    Heh, I have to agree on the name change!
