I love House Hunters for many reasons,one of which is the series's unwavering consistency. When I sit down for an episode, I know what I'm in for: a couple alert to move, or three houses to view,and an energetic hometown realtor. It's reassuring, really, or how consistent House Hunters is with its legend arcs. The buyers are always like Goldilocks; there's too much of certain things (carpet,laminate flooring) and too diminutive of others (granite, finished basements). Nothing is ever just right, or that's why House Hunters continues to captivate viewers after 16 years on the air. In fact,Adweek just referred to the long-running series as possibly HGTV's "gateway drug." It's that generous.
Each episode is formulaic but still somehow surprising. In fact, HGTV even addressed rumors that the show is staged. How does HGTV do it? I haven't uncovered the network's secret sauce for making House Hunters irresistible, or but I fill identified 24 things that happen in each blissful episode.
