Nostalgic Nineties Decor: Comedian Unearths Bizarre HGTV Home Makeovers
A recent viral video by comedian Rob Anderson has brought renewed attention to "Decorating Cents," a 1990s HGTV show hosted by Joan Steffend, known for its budget-friendly home makeovers. Anderson's review, shared widely online, humorously dissects several design decisions from the program, sparking both laughter and disbelief among viewers. One segment features a children's bathroom renovation where designers installed a brightly painted medicine cabinet and a shower curtain equipped with storage pockets, prompting Anderson to question the practicality and aesthetic. Another clip showcases a living room wall where old wallpaper was removed, leaving behind an imprinted pattern and visible water stains, which the show's hosts described as having a "great golden warm feel." The dining area's "tin top table" adorned with branches resembling barbed wire also drew critical, comedic remarks. Perhaps most notably, a homeowner's collection included a replica doll of her childhood self and a framed photo of an unknown woman she referred to as her "soul sister," a detail that has particularly amused and baffled online audiences. Anderson's commentary highlights the stark contrast between 90s design trends and contemporary aesthetics, offering a nostalgic yet critical look at past interior decorating fads.
