HGTV is getting an earful from fans these days. The network has cancelled a host of popular shows, including Farmhouse Fixer, Izzy Does It, Married to Real Estate, Bargain Block, and Battle on the Beach. HGTV has not given any official statement on the scheduling changes, but the stars of the shows have confirmed they were not picked up, leaving viewers with questions.
Now, HGTV has released its official July lineup on Instagram, and fans are not holding back in the comments. The schedule includes the premiere of five shows: Celebrity IOU, My Lottery Dream Home, Zillow Gone Wild, Renovation Resort Showdown, and Chasing the West. Plus, Down Home Fab, Holmes Family Rescue, and Beachfront Bargain Hunt Renovation continue their seasons.
Viewers ran to the comments to give their thoughts on the new lineup, and it's safe to say that fans have not recovered from the recent cancellations.
