The Stagers
The hit HGTV series The Stagers returns for a second season packed full of stunning transformations that turn dull for-sale spaces into spectacular residences that shine in today’s real-estate market. This season, Matthew, Bridget,Maureen, Brent and Dina – professional stagers from Dekora, Canada’s leading home staging company – work to stage a range of homes while hustling to exceed client demands. Budgets and schedules are tight in the world of home staging which means our multi-tasking teams are always in the pressure cooker. From practical tricks on how to sell your home to the sparks that fly when the heat is on, each episode is a lesson in transforming a house from a first impression turn-off to a market gem.

HGTV Showdown
Competitive drama and great design take center stage in this series of specials for HGTV.
It's season 3 and the battle for design supremacy is back to rock HGTV! HGTV Showdown is the design competition show that features HGTV's top talent pairing up to plan and execute a winning design in less than 4 hours for one lucky homeowner. Then the homeowners get $10,000 to recreate the design at home.
The pressure is on for HGTV's hottest designers who pair up to compete in the most intense design competition yet! Starting with staged replicas of the couple's lackluster room, the design teams are given access to a dream design center, providing them with everything they need to completely transform the room — except time! With only four hours to work their magic under the scrutinizing eyes of the homeowners, the showdown is on to see which team will come up with the best plan for meeting the needs of both husband and wife, while transforming the room into an amazing space.
