I'm Emily. Three years ago, I thought I didn't have enough time to do the housework, so I cancelled the cable(取消有线电视). But I still think it's fun to watch TV shows when I get the chance(机会).
My favorite show was The Life Laundry. It was so interesting. It came on Saturday mornings after Norm on This Old House and Rick Steves Europe. It was like Clean Sweep. It chose some common people. In the show, people took everything in the house outside so they could see how many things they had. Then they would go through each thing and decide whether(是否) to keep or sell it. When people sold some things they would never use, a team(团队) would make the home more beautiful with a new coat of paint. At the end of the show, everyone was always happy to see their home cleaned up and look _spacious.
Antiques Roadshow came after The Life Laundry,which was confusing(令人困惑的) because The Life Laundry made you want to clean out your things, but it made you want to keep everything.
