HGTV SPOTLIGHTS COMEDIANS AND THEIR HOUSE-HUNTING COMMENTARY IN NEW JUNE SERIES 'HOUSE HUNTERS: COMEDIANS ON COUCHES'

New York [May 18, 2020] Fans who miss televised live events and the pithy professional commentary that comes with them can now look to HGTV to fill that void with its new, highly anticipated series House Hunters: Comedians on Couches (fka House Hunters: LOL). In a four-night, star-studded special event at 10 and 10:30 p.m. ET/PT from Tuesday, June 2, through Friday, June 5, America's favorite contactless past time - watching and commenting on House Hunters - gets a fun new twist when seven popular comedians deliver hilarious, no holds barred, color commentary on classic episodes of the hit series.

"House Hunters is a pop culture phenomenon that inspires strong reactions from viewers who like to play along with its familiar house selection process," said Jane Latman, president, HGTV.
