What’s Happening This Week on HGTV

Ugliest House in America” continues its eighth season with another search for homes in desperate need of a makeover, while “Crashers” keeps delivering dramatic renovation rescues on Monday nights.

Tuesday remains one of HGTV’s busiest evenings thanks to new episodes of “Love It or List It,” “Extreme Buyers Club,” and “House Hunters International.” Meanwhile, Wednesday brings another round of competition on “Renovation Resort Showdown” before “Worst Yard on the Block” returns with two fresh episodes.

The week also keeps newer series in the spotlight. “Roast My Rental” appears several times throughout the schedule, HGTV’s house hunting franchise reruns the first episode of its newest iteration, “House Hunters: Grand Alaska” on Thursday, and Sunday wraps everything up with fresh episodes of “Holmes on Homes: Building a Legacy,” “Maine Cabin Masters: All Inn,” and “House Hunters.”

It seems like HGTV has found a comfortable rhythm this summer by rotating newer series alongside familiar favorites instead of letting one show dominate the schedule. Yep, that approach keeps the lineup feeling fresh without changing what longtime viewers already enjoy.
