Home and Garden Television

The TV station that encourages the same conformity, wastefulness, shallow attitudes, irresponsability, mMaterialism, and rootlessness that has been pandemic in the USA for decades. Sister station to TLC and to some extent the Discovery Channel and A&E (it used to be none of these used to suck).

Typified by such awful shows as Designed to Sell, Curb Appeal, House Hunters, and worst of all My Parents House.
All I ever see on that damned HGTV are people sending all the old furnishings/architectural details, and long established plantings to the landfill (but only after destroying them thouroughly).

The people who watch HGTV are mostly a bunch of sheep and probably watch Fox News as well.
