Has HGTV lost its magic?

Does anyone else miss the older hgtv shows like "You Live in What?", or "Extreme Homes" or even when HGTV used to broadcast the show "Grand Designs". Idk those shows to me really embodied how quirky and unique houses could get as well as how unique homeowners could get as sometimes traditional housing or housing shapes etc just aren't for everyone and how that's ok. From converting an old gas station or fire house or airplane into a house or apartment to other equally interesting things like artist houses. Hgtv just sort of doesn't air stuff like that anymore. I can understand those types of shows being harder to produce as they have to actively search for those kinds of houses and people to feature but it seems like hgtv aren't even interested in keeping those old shows on the hgtv app. What I also miss is that those types of shows and the houses featured on them really showcase creativity and art. Like yeah I love house hunters and other modern shows but not everything needs to be sleek or a white kitchen to be nice. Where's the stories of "my husband was a big art nut so he hand carved all the wood elements and did all the steel sculptures, paintings and pottery/ceramic work by himself".

I think the only show to come to mind that does showcase creativity and art like those shows used to is "flea market flip" which I know has been on hiatus for a while now. Since the idea of having the contestants shop for and then work with manufacturers to revamp and redesign items and then resell those items at flea markets on the show gives some actual insight into how things can be reused if you're creative and the object speaks to a person.

But even the travel channel doesn't really feature interesting shows like "million dollar rv's or buses" where you just get to see inside expensive rv's and how they are made and what amenities they have anymore to my knowledge.

Idk I suppose there's the argument where someone could say that if I want art so badly there's always the history channel but the history channel doesn't cover art that much or at least I don't see it advertised as often anymore compared to when I was growing up. Besides I'm talking about houses etc and not famous paintings etc. And even if I was talking about the latter there isn't an actual dedicated art channel so the next best thing is art museums or art shows. And there's always Netflix possibly having something but it's just odd to me how hgtv and even the diy network don't have a lot of pickings in this kind of genre of home owning and building.

Getting back on track with the want for more shows with crazy architecture, design and looks in general I just wonder where those types of shows have gone and why they seem to have died out. Like how interesting would it be to see an hgtv rock the block special series where they get a bunch of designers from various shows and instead of the usual format where they just slowly transform a house to have the most value you throw them in the deep in and go "your imaginary clients are all the more adventurous type this season so instead of traditional housing you'll be doing tiny houses, transforming barns into houses, renovating a gas station etc into apartments".

And then challenges on these hypothetical shows could be ones where the designers have to do the opposite of their traditional style their known for. So say for Allison Victoria (love most of her work and don't get most people's hate for her work) she had to use bright or pastel colors and couldn't use large amounts of black paint. I'd LOVE to see Hilary from love it or list it on a show like that. Or have hgtv give each contestant a pyramid house or something else oddly shaped and say you can go nuts inside and outside but you can't change the shape of this pyramid to be a traditional building (as in the outside shape has to either stay pyramid shaped or just can't be a rectangle or cube shaped as that's too traditional shaped and against the rules for the challenge). This would keep shows interesting as well as keep designers fresh.

Anyway I'd love to hear peoples thoughts on this.

HGTV Extreme Homes

Anyone able to locate episodes of the HGTV show Extreme Homes from late 90's/early 2000's? I watched that show growing up but have not been able to locate the earlier episodes. Only episodes I can locate are of the recent show.
