As I sit here watching House Hunters, I ended up muting the program. Why? In S184, E8, I was introduced to the "truple." The husband was straight, the wife bi, and a third woman was the other partner of the wife, a sickening addition to this show.
HGTV seeks out these types of relationships to promote them as acceptable. It is unbelievable that this ungodly life style is featured on HGTV or any channel for that matter.
This is a sad time and deal breaker. That the producers would assault the American family with such foul content shows the darkness that's in their hearts. Care a little more about your audience and clean up your act!

I was surprised at the program also. I'm done with HGTV. They went from a good craft show, to a greedy flipping real estate program that helped normalize the 2008 housing crash and gentrification...money, money...and now a truple? Come on. Why do we need to know this?
I was offended and shocked with this episode.
When did HGTV become trendy and political?
And to think I really enjoyed this show.
My husband and I are deeply disappointed in the “truple” episode. HGTV used to be a solid family viewing program that has desended into content that belongs on Showtime or HBO. If HGTV wants to grow their audience, they might be surprised when people like me pull the plug on this show and actually have the reverse effect. The need to celebrate sexual deviancy on a channel that is focused on home ownership is beyond the pale. It seems that HGTV is going out of their way to over-represent small percentages of the population and go for shock value instead. It’s unfortuante that HGTV does not see the power of the viewer.
I did not like the “truple “ episode and turned it off. That is not a typical family and since I always thought your station was safe to watch with children I no longer feel that way. You introduced a life style that is not appropriate for all ages. Please think harder before you jump into the unusual pool. I do not need have a lifestyle like that put in my face.
"Thruples, Truples" ? No matter what you call it, monogamy is monogamy, although "truples" is far more than having more than one spouse in separate homes; this is an all-time low for HGTV. I could not believe what I was seeing, so I exercised my freedom and changed the channel. I hope you don't do this on my favorite show, Home Town, or any others. You should have given your viewers the courtesy of an explanation of the content in advance of the show. Perhaps I missed it, if you did. However in this case a special announcement should have been provided for viewers/parents to take note of the viewer advisory labels. In my future viewing, I will be selecting my "Information" button to read about the content of episodes. One would think that a program about people house hunting would not require such a need though.
HGTV...you should be ashamed of yourself. The Throuple show is a disgusting example of what is happening to what should be a wholesome family show. I will block your show so my kids do not think that this is a DECENT show to watch. You have succumbed to the deplorable values that are rearing their ugly heads on family shows!
