Reviews and Complaints

I am horrified that you are ruuning abortion ads on this network. This is an extrememly sensitive issue and to sugar coat it the way the ad does is offensive, I cant believe that while im enjoying a show I have to have this thrown in my face. Abortion is not to be taken lightly and is a human rights issue. We don't get rid of people because they are inconvenient. That is what prez Putin is doing right now in the Ukrane and the whole world is horrified. Stop running this ad.

Upset that while watching family friendly HGTV shows, my small children have to see Drag queen commercials that actually scare them. I won't be watching if this continues! Please make ads/commercials optional so that we can not be afraid to have on while our children are in the room. Totally ridiculous that these types of commercials air during daytime hours or at all!

I must say that we are extremely offended by the pro abortion commercial from Future Forward USA Action! My husband and I are VERY pro life and really don't think that this commercial has a place on your network. We have watched HGTV for many years, as have many of our friends and family. Just wondering why you'd think this was appropriate for your viewers?!

We're also extremely disturbed by the "I'm a woman and I poop" (Garden of Life Probiotics) commercial. We're just trying to enjoy a show, and REALLY aren't interested in watching anyone sitting on the toilet going to the bathroom!

Lastly the Thinx Period Underwear commercial isn't something that we'd like to see either! UGH!

Very disappointed in your channel supporting abortion! I will not and cannot believe the one sided support. I am totally against this and will no longer watch your network.

I just turned on my TV ready to watch HGTV which I love and have watched for years.

You have gone over the line. I just saw a commercial advocating for abortion. Sorry but I am offended that you are promoting abortion on your channel. Everyone has their feelings about this issue, but this channel is not the place to promote it.

Consider me a non-viewer from now on unless you decide not to air these offensive commercials.

Hopefully I will not see this garbage on Magnolia network.

As a loyal HGTV program viewer for decades I have noticed a change that is offensive to me & family.

Overly excessive FOCUS on the gay community on all or most programs. Even the family friendly programs are NOW incorporating this agenda.

I am not happy at all.

Resolution…. Maintain the integrity of building & decorating programs to the field, not the lifestyle.

Thank you in advance for listening & addressing this complaint as I am sure my voice represents tens of thousands of viewers.

I have watched HGTV for years - this past weekend I was shocked to see political advertising raging against Democratic leaders and stating untrue and unbased opinions.

What the Heck! When did you guys need to get political? Why Why Why did you have to succumb to this trash. I can only believe that it is the for the money and I thought this station was better than that. I know I am only one viewer but I am going to stop watching this channel. It won't make a difference to you but it does to me. SHAME ON YOU!

Hello,

I am writing in regards to HomeTown, specifically the episode airing 10 PM EST on May 29th, 2022 (the couple who decided to renovate the own home - the bar-b-que King).

Putting a snake in toilet and a coffee maker is disturbing, and can cause stress to the snake. I realize it was done in fun, but having fun at the expense of animals is cruel. I do not eat animals, but I do understand the need for the the show to reflect the community of Laurel, of which having a bar-b-que would fall into this category.

Erin and Ben hold a large influence over families. It would be appreciated if they encouraged their viewers to consider the feelings of all living beings.

Thank you

The show itself is good, however lets talk about Cristi Dozier's hair. The hair is tragic.

Tonight's episode #8, her hair is sticking up in the back. It's like she never took a comb to it. The whole season her hair has been tragic. Someone get that girl a comb!

Several years back HGTV hired a so called landscaper to landscape this couples home. It was for a Black man who had just married a white women. The man had his home before they were married. HGTV sent some low life guy out to these decent peoples home. The man had wild miniature strawberries growing in his front yard that took the place of grass.

The homeowner asked HGTV landscaper NOT to take out all the wild strawberry plants and not to remove the newly installed mail box he had put in. The HGTV guy did not give a rats behind about what the homeowner wanted and did what ever he wanted to do. The HGTV guy was rude, racist and disrespectful. Long story short the HGTV guy messed up that homeowner yard. A two year old could have done better than that guy did. The homeowner was interviewed for last comments before the show ended and he was sorry he ever allowed HGTV to touch his yard. Seems to me HGTV does not give a dame about who they hire. I felt so sorry for that Homeowner. HGTV you get a F in grade for allowing such a person to work for you. I dont watch HGTV so much these days. But I sure do tell others about that episode. Dont trust HGTV. They may send you a racist rude disrespectful person to deal with who will mess up your home.

My complaint is about a tv show. I really like how Alison Victoria from Windy City decorates, she is awesome! But honestly she talks wayyyy too much, actually she can rather annoying. She talks a lot about herself. I find myself waiting until the end to just watch the finished product and skipping the rest.

I have watched HGTV / Magnolia Network/ DIY Network for years. I am completely disappointed with 2 minutes of show and 3 minutes of commercials, then 2 min of show & again 3 minutes of commercials! This is absolutely ridiculous! An hour of this! I love the shows but the AMOUNT OF COMMERCIALS IS BRUTAL! Goodness. Can’t we hv 10 minutes of show & 3 min of commercials? Something more than what we are getting. Throw us a bone here - we’ve been thru 2 yrs of pandemic and hundreds of reruns until we’re CRAZY!

Do your advertisers know that you are no longer targeting their actual customers? All you see on your shows now are blacks and gays…where did all the white people go? Call me racist if you like but, you should attempt to have true equality on your shows. Also, as a “former” viewer, I got tired of watching reruns of reruns. No wonder your ratings have plummeted.

Love Bryan Baumler since Leave It to Bryan, ... Sarah, not so much... her constant use of ultra expensive products, particularly wallpaper everywhere (does she get a kickback?) and her attitude of not caring how much work she creates for Bryan is garbage, especially THAT chandelier. Also, I particularly dislike the use of 'Stinky Linky" for their lovely son... to me it is abuse. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to get this off my mind. I fast forward when I see a scene with Sarah.

Never ordered the magazine. I see many other people saying the same and the magazine is definitely not for high end designer ideas which is fine but I just looked at the “ Our House “ CA couple home which is the worst design ever. It’s actually depressing . Wow usually your articles and features are ok and even though they are budget friendly , they look happy and bright but this one was downright depressing. Wow big mistake

I'm filing a complaint is about Flip or Flop! People are sick and tired of watching reruns of this show. Since the show finally came too a program that is over and please stop showing the reruns of Flip or Flop and we are [censored]en tired of Tarek and Christina. Enough is Enough. Stop showing the reruns we want them removed completely and replace their reruns with something else. NO MORE FLIP OR FLOP please we are done with Tarek's and Christina's faces and it makes all that we want too throw up.😱🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Can you please get rid of christina from flip or flop. Or any other show.
1. She is not a great designer
2. She is annoying
3. She is a prema dona
4. Terrance deserves a co host of a higher standard. Someone more on his level of work and intelligence.
I didn't care for her attitude and designs when they were married and working together. The girl is just not appealing.

Home Town is a decent show but can you please stop broadcasting the show so often? You have plenty others shows to broadcast and give Home Town and your viewers a break. It's very disappointing when I turn to turn to HGTV and then have to change it because the show is on and sometimes being shown all day. Please stop. I love to watch your shows but seeing Home Town all day is ridiculous.
