Well dang when you put it like that... I can see what you mean. And the way they like to start suck in the past all the time is silly, but people do make mistakes, and jumping to new stuff too quickly can backfire if security isn't put in place. Not to say that the new stuff isn't inherently bad, but it must be fine correctly.
But it was all just to make the hero moment more hype, and it worked for me.
And knowing you meant HGTV makes me agree twice as hard. My mom loves that channel, and I can't stand any of it. I don't get how they can pretend they're different shows.
Their motives are different, there's different people on camera, but they're all the same show. You can make the same argument about a lot of genres, but a lot of reductions have to be made to do it.
With home reno stuff, it's quite literal and bald faced.
It's always meet the people that own it, then there's "demo day", then omg x happened, now we're really in a time/budget crunch! Oh look, we made it! And everybody clapped.
