Sick and fed up with the Dyi changing to Magnolia network
Commercials about changing from DyI to magnolia have made me stop watching this network. Ridiculous.

Im having a problem with their schedule of programs.Maine cabin masters just went off ,they are scheduled to be showing restoring Galveston and here Maine cabin masters is on again.This has been happening a lot lately.where you are confusing the programming.you are advertising Maine cabin masters for 9PM on Monday but that s also a mistake because you are not showing in in that time slot please make up your mind.I enjoy both shows but would like you to be consistent

- - Hire a real program director.

Approximately a year ago, I was enjoying one of your shows when (about every 12 minutes) there would be a short come on with Mike Holmes showing EXACTLY THE SAME SPOT - EVERY 12 MINUTES!!

Verified ReviewerScheduling
- - Tonight's schedule shows Bargain Mansions instead of Maine Cabin Masters.
- - Maine Cabin Masters is being shown less often.
- - I'll use the DVR.
Your program that you have on your network schedule is wrong. Tonight was showing Maine Cabin Masters.
What's playing is Bargain Mansions.
Also, why are you showing less and less Maine Cabin Masters? I guess I'll use the DVR.
Preferred solution: Fix the problem.

Racist
- - The ad using the Amish in competition is racist.
- - It asks if it would apply to Italians or Polish.
- - The ad is sick and should be pulled.
To refer to the Amish as in competition is racist would you say that about the Italians or the Polish that was a sick advertisement that needs to be pulled Remove the advertisement about competing with the Amish
Amish is not a race.

Too much
- - In Aug/Sep 2020, the same Holmes blurb aired every 12 minutes during DIY; six months later it still repeats, and the viewer stopped watching.
About August or September of 2020, watched your DIY channel for 2 - 3 hours. In that time period, about every 12 minutes, the very same Holmes mini blurb w was shown.
The very same one.
After that ridiculous attack to my senses, I stopped watching DIY!
Click ahead 6 months - I began watching shows again.
DIY Network is still doing the same thing.
Evidently yall have a program director thats not doing a very good job. This is so offensive that I turn Holmes & Holmes off just as quickly as I turn Rosanne off.
User's recommendation: Get a new program director

It sucks they are changing. Could care less about Chip and Joanna lousy cooking. Best show is Maine Cabin masters because it is within reach of most cabin owners to achieve.
