HGTV had lost their appeal to me because of their continuous repetitions of episodes and just the lack of shows that oozed innovative ideas and creative wiles. However, that is no more! I’m loving the new episodes of House Hunters International, the new series, “Room Crashers” with one of the finalists from a prior HGTV Design Stars, the new series, “ HGTV’d” which is a winner; the designs featured are out of the box and over the top.
The outdoor spaces above were designed by the talented and oh so sweet sounding Jamie Durie. Don’t you just love him? The slur of his Aussie accent is so beautiful too!
Now, besides the new HGTV Design Star series that premieres tomorrow, another great buzz that has HGTV’s appeal better than ever are these folks;
Cortney and Robert Novogratz(pictured above) will be debuting a new design show on HGTV called "Home by Novogratz”. The first episode airs July 16th and I can’t wait! I will most certainly be watching every single episode!
gorgeous space -rooms designed by the Novogratz
Will you be tuning in to HGTV too? XX
looking forward to seeing the novogratz again! donna
ReplyDeleteMost definitely will be watching Novogratz...love their design!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I'll be tuning in more to HGTV.
ReplyDeleteI watch House Hunters International, but lately I just want to slap the people through the TV, because it seems like the ALL complain about the size of the rooms in the house. lol I'm like, hello.. you're not in America anymore!
ReplyDeletelol hollie! you're so right!
ReplyDeleteHi Stacey,
ReplyDeleteI can't get enough of the home shows and especially love A House in the sun where people are looking for homes in France.
Also love the shows where they renovate homes too.
Happy week
Hugs

i am on countdown until design star tonight! yay! love the new shows and stars you mentioned and so looking forward to the novogratz series. fun post...thank you. xx
ReplyDeleteSTACY DARLIN'!!!!! I don't get cable so I have no idea what this is about!!!! But I am enjoying the inspiration I get daily from blogs and that is good enough for me. HOW ARE YOU and the babies?????
ReplyDeleteEnjoying your summer dearest??
Come into my home when you can...I finally have pictures to share...Anita
I stopped watching HGTV a few years back when their shows took on a drama-driven 'reality' slant. The only one I can stomach is Selling New York and only because of the stupendous living spaces featured. Maybe I'll tune back in again. Hopefully they've realized that there's no need to create drama in a home design show to hold an audience.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch much HGTV but will definitely try and tune in to the Nogratz's show - they are truly amazing!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. Thanks for the reminder. Happy Summer. Mona
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for it too! I know what you mean about HGTV but I watch those same shows over and over again anyway :)
ReplyDeletei wish they would come decorate my apartment!
ReplyDeleteI have to be honest I'm addicted to HGTV now that they've added more shows!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to hear that the Novogratz's show will be airing soon. Just seeing that amazing blown up photo on the wall makes me want to fast forward to July 16th!!! What talent!

I'm a huge fan of HGTV, & also cooking channel. lol. This is so exciting and will try to tune in from even though I may be on holiday. Have a great week dear! -xo
ReplyDeleteThe Novogratz are fascinating aren't they? Wish I could watch it too!
ReplyDeleteStacy dearest! Thank you for coming tonight! My home is modest, but I LOVE IT..we have taken a simple house and made it our little French-style retreat. I am loving my summer just staying home to relax, read, write a little and try my hand at watercolours. SCHOOL WILL START SOON..can you believe that?
ReplyDeleteHAPPY TUESDAY! Anita
I'm glad you wrote this post. I've been off HGTV for a while now for exactly the same reason. Not enough inspiration to pull me away from blog reading. I adore the Novogratz's and can't wait for the new series.
ReplyDeleteI dont think I can get that her in england I hear so much good things about it I feel left out
ReplyDeleteI am going to have to give HGTV another try. I used to love it, but then stopped watching it for the same reason as you. Thanks for the info Stacey!
ReplyDeleteI may have to tune in again to HGTV to see Cortney and Robert Novogretz...I'm so glad I read this on your blog!
