S says
worst to first is not original hgtv has already done this already with the room flipping show. Flip or flop is overdone and no one wants to watch two people who can’t stand each other pretend to be nice. Love or list it vacation just don’t one Vancouver show is enough move on to another province hence drop worst to first. Neither of those guys know anything about design in this show except if they were in the 90’s.
I don’t know about off the grid if it’s as naff as potential was I don’t think this will be any better than the cabin show. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Get rid of the home hunting shows from US or other locations not interested. Tiny homes drop it very boring and no one is interested. Reno show the latest one is boring now with all the crying and drama not interested.
Nicole Curtis at least has something none of these shows have some personal interest and no home owners other than her she has some long earned knowledge not some carpenter competition wannabe property brothers guys. Why is it always guys who are the carpenters anyhow why not reverse it male designer female carpenter there are women who do this kind of manual labour too. Why not cover auction properties like the UK now that would be more interesting. HGTV look at your shows or get a consensus from viewers instead of deciding for yourselves. HGTV.ca is supposed to be Canadian not all American programs. Should be fair portions of both. Lots of Canadian talents and more than one province please. BC is not the only place that has places worth living in and don’t cost nearly as much.
There are anglos in Quebec and you can do in two languages or hire two different hosts. East coast also has designers and homes what’s wrong with them?
HGTV needs to look at a map of Canada is more than BC. The American shows need to stop showing these shows that have gone more than 5 seasons and let it go. Maybe feature a British show or two or three to round it out or Europe as a whole. Also make some garden shows too BBq decks are already out time to make a show of what natural designs can do for a home instead of lazy gardening.
