HGTV Cancels Four Shows in Just One Week—See If Your Favorite Series Got the Chop

Wildly popular real estate TV network HGTV has reportedly canceled four of its shows in just a single week—with multiple hosts taking to Instagram to reveal to fans that their projects had been given the ax.

Since June 18, the hosts of “Bargain Block,” “Married to Real Estate,” “Farmhouse Fixer,” and “Izzy Does It” have all shared the heartbreaking news about their shows’ cancelations, leaving fans fearing that other network favorites could soon face the same fate.

The first of the shows to hit the cutting room floor was “Bargain Block,” according to its star, Keith Bynum, who announced on his social media account that HGTV had chosen not to renew the popular Detroit-based series for a fifth season.

Bizarrely, he further alleged that the network had initially “greenlit” another round of episodes back in December but ultimately backtracked on that promise just two months later.

“We do have a few more episodes coming out in August,” he wrote, before adding: “But they are the remainder of Season 4 ’cause they did not renew the show for Season 5.

“They originally greenlit it, and I guess that was back in December. Then they decided in February, after we got everything ready for Season 5, that they weren’t gonna do it.”

Bynum—who hosted the show alongside Evan Thomas—later hit out at the “fickle world” of reality TV, describing the enormous pressure that had been placed on his team in the wake of the cancelation.

“Our entire business and lives have been put through the ringer at the hands of a giant corporation, yet we persist lol,” he wrote in a June 22 update on Instagram. “Though you may not be seeing us for much longer on HGTV, we’re excited that we’ve built such an amazing base of followers and we’re very excited about the future.”

The show, which premiered in 2021, was described by HGTV as documenting a team of “scrappy visionaries” who “buy run-down and abandoned properties, and transform them into affordable, stylish starter homes for first-time homebuyers.”

A few days after Bynum shared the news, popular “Flip or Flop” star Izzy Battres revealed that his new series, “Izzy Does It” had also been axed by HGTV, announcing the news in a June 23 comment on one of his Instagram posts.

When asked by a follower whether Season 2 of his show—which only premiered in February—had been confirmed, Battres replied: “Unfortunately no Season 2 but we’re truly, thankful for everyone watching and supporting us!!”

Next up on the chopping block was “Married to Real Estate,” which stars husband and wife duo Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson, who announced on June 24 that the series had been abruptly canceled after four seasons.

Sherrod and Jackson, who began showing off their renovation skills on screen back in 2022, explained on Instagram that they received the news about the cancelation just moments after arriving back in the U.S. following a family vacation in the Mediterranean.

“Mike and I just landed back in the States after an unforgettable family trip through the Mediterranean, and we’re met with unexpected news: HGTV has decided not to move forward with Married to Real Estate,” the couple, who wed in 2010 and share three children, revealed.

They conceded that the situation was hurtful but were quick to express their gratitude for the team that worked so hard on their four-season series.

“While the chain of events leading up to this is disheartening, we are deeply grateful. Grateful for four incredible seasons,” they went on.

“Grateful for our amazing crew and supportive fans. Grateful that our businesses continue to thrive. And most of all-grateful that we are still very much married to real estate (and to each other).”

The fourth show to be cut by the network was “Farmhouse Fixer,” which documented New Kids on the Block singer Jonathan Knight‘s restoration of historic New England farmhouses.

In a post shared on his Instagram, the musician and renovations expert expressed his sadness over the network’s decision, while thanking fans for their unwavering support throughout all three seasons of the show.

“A lot of you have been asking about the future of ‘Farmhouse Fixer,'” he began the post. “I am sad to say HGTV has decided not to move forward with another season.

“While I’m still processing the reasons that led to their decision, Kristina and I are so grateful for all your support over the past three seasons. Television has been so incredibly fun for us. We are so proud of what we created together and look forward to sharing what’s next for us.”

The news of the cancelations has left viewers up in arms—with some threatening to boycott the network altogether, while others voiced fears about what additional shows may also be axed.

“Exactly what are they planning on airing?” one person questioned in a Reddit thread about the canceled series. “Everything is canceled.”

Another chimed in: “It sounds like the end of the station.”

“Those are all great shows! I’m very frustrated,” one person added.

Questions were also raised about “Unsellable Houses,” “Luxe for Less,” and “No Demo Reno,” all of which the network has yet to confirm the futures of.
