If HGTV Shows Had Honest Names

From Soccer Moms to broke college kids, HGTV has somehow caught on and people are guilty watching a majority of these fun shows. We can all agree that sometimes we start watching a show, or trick someone into watching the show, and it all of a sudden isn't what we thought it was. Wouldn't it make life so much easier if they named HGTV shows a bit more honestly? Well, look no further, we have renamed the HGTV shows with a bit more accurate names!

1. "Look at How Awesome Our Marriage Is! Oh, And Here Is A House Full Of Stuff You Can't Afford"

I am in no way a hater of Chip and Joanna Gains; there is a lot of love out there for the Magnolia Market and "Fixer Upper."It is a super fun show to watch and fun fact: you have the option to buy the staging items (furniture and other accessories seen in the show), but it definitely doesn't come with the home.

2. "Awkward Closets On Wheels"

If any of my readers ever make their way on to "Tiny House Hunters," please please please be original and don't say, "Well this is kind of small..." It is a tiny house, friends, we know it's small. Regardless, it is still one of my favorites from HGTV, even if it is unreasonable for a six-footer.

3. "The Closest Thing To War Between Canada And The US"

Listen, as clearly fake as a lot of it is, Hilary and David are feisty and it's fantastic. "Love It or List It" is definitely as close to war between Canada and the U.S. as it will get.

4. "We Somehow Have Lot of Money And Are Retiring; Let's Move To A Desolate Place"

It is honestly the opposite of everything I have known: old couples are supposed to move out of secluded rural areas and into places that have people and places to help them. It's still fun to watch the people of "Island Hunters" buy entire islands when you are still living in sketchy college apartments.

5. "Two Brothers Casually Arguing While They Make Insane Houses"

"Property Brothers" rarely disappoint, until they have the same argument seven episodes in a row.

6. "We Both Have Weird Jobs With A Huge Budget. Let Us Fake Look At Houses"

"House Hunters" has probably some of the worst acting I have ever witnessed. You know which house they want. Don't try to add suspense, Janice from Brooklyn.

7. "Impress Ellen With Pretty House Ideas"

Ellen is involved so it has to be pretty neat. It's "Ellen's Design Challenge." C'mon, guys. Did I mention that Ellen is involved??

8. "We Try To Be Cute Like Chip And Joanna But Are Fake And A Little Hostile"


I am not sure how these guys even still have a show; their houses all look the same and they are kind of mean to each other... Still, "Flip Or Flop" somehow still makes in work.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
