Home Buying Reality Shows

As mentioned previously, The Wife and I have been watching some of the shows on HGTV about buying a home. I've come to realize the majority of these shows follow the same clichés, so I present to you a guide on How to Script Make a Reality TV Show About Buying a Home. Your television show should include ALL of the following:

- Photogenic opposite sex couple

- When walking into a 3rd bedroom or large den area, the male must say, "We could use this space for the man cave!" and/or "We could put the big screen up and watch the game in here!"

- Shots of the guy talking about how much he loves the backsplash in the kitchen, even though he really doesn't give a shit. It also helps if the guy points out details like the tile on the bathroom floor even though, again, he really doesn't give a shit.

- When walking into the master bedroom and seeing a large closet space, the female must turn to the male and say: "Wow, this closet is great! Where are you going to put all of your stuff?" An acceptable variation of this phrase is "So this closet will hold all of my shoes - where do we put his things?" followed by quaint laughter.

Cut. Print. It's a wrap!
