Television is a fun break from reality. Coming home, kicking your shoes off and flipping on the boob tube is a great way to get away from your horrible job, family, life… unless you love the reality TV. Then, sadly, you’re bringing that world home… especially when the shows are about homes! As benign as HGTV might seem, some of these fans are taking their love, and hatred, from a 2 to a 10 and Tweeting for the whole world to see.
