My house may have more than one TV, but there are times when I want to cuddle up with my husband and enjoy some mindless inspirations. The truth is we enjoy spending time together but find it very difficult in the television department. With both are NFL junkies but go down opposite roads when faced with finding a mutual program that does not involve adult cartoons or a reality housewife.
There are times when I want to watch a decorating or home improvement show, but don’t know how I can make it sound more appealing than Call of Duty. I don’t know many husbands who would willingly watch a show about swatches and paint colors. If you are in the same boat, take a look at these show recommendations. I can’t guarantee all of them will work, but have had success with some.

This is a great program for homeowners who have been tippy-toeing around the idea of selling their home, or making what they have work. ‘Love It or List It’ takes us inside the homes of everyday homeowners who are struggling with this very issue and call on experts David Visentin (real estate agent) and Hilary Farr (designer) to help make their decision a little clear. While David shows potential homes, Hilary works hard with a crew to revamp their current space (within their budget). In the end, they must decide if they love the renovation enough to stay, or found a new home and want to list.
