From the blog At Home: The blog Hooked on Houses is giving fans a dose of reality about the HGTV series 'House Hunters.' According to an interview with a former participant, Bobi Jensen, much of the popular show, which has been on the air since 1999, is faked.

I don't trust reality shows

actually..I never really pay that much attention to the people...I am more interested in the decorating, the different styles of homes, locations, costs of real estate, what living space is like in other countries etc....so whether highly edited ( who wants to watch 20 minutes of escrow paperwork ) or staged to showcase different living options......and that part of the reality is aok with me.

A "real" reality show would be families or singles getting up at 5:00, 6:00 a.m., getting themselves and family members ready to hit the door and go to work and school, people grocery shopping, going to their doctors, soccer games, ballet lessons -- or people struggling just to get by and have shelter, food and clothing. Guess "real" reality isn't interesting enough to actually become a show.
I only watch House Hunters International when they're in Europe or Scandinavia, Great Britain, Prague, Russia, and I watch it just to see how people could live in other countries and to see the architecture.

Surprised

I don't know why I should be surprised, but the people go in and are so critical and picky, that it surprises me a bit that anyone would allow them in a house to even 'pretend' to be interested. You'll get some couple with a beer budget wondering why the house in their budget doesn't have luxury features. It's a little tiring listening to their bitches, and now that I know they're fake, it's even more annoying.

No one should be surprised, so-called "reality" shows have admitted to scripting

I knew it was scripted. I only wish the producers would realize it's NOT okay to lie about the authenticity of a REALITY SHOW. idiots.

Not all that surprising to be honest, I mean what if they didn't like any the three houses they're shown and refuse to buy one? Its about the entertainment factor rather than documenting the process of " hunting" for a house.

But I have to admit that I like watching the International version rigged or not.

Poeple have to be pretty ignorant to be duped into believing that "reality" shows have much, if anything, to do with reality.
