The Return of House Hunters and International
And what's a HGTV revamp without a few familiar faces? The beloved duo of House Hunters and its popular spinoff, House Hunters International, will continue to captivate audiences with nearly 400 fresh half-hour episodes through 2026. Fans can expect the same fun, interactive viewing experience they've come to love – peeking inside three different homes, checking out layouts and furnishings, evaluating them, and picking which one they think will work best for the new homeowner.
A Network in Transition
But amidst all this excitement, it's worth noting that HGTV has bid farewell to several fan-favorite shows, including Married to Real Estate, Izzy Does It, Farmhouse Fixer, Bargain Block, Battle on the Beach, Christina on the Coast, and The Flipping El Moussas. Don't worry – these shows may be gone, but their memory will live on in the hearts of loyal fans.
