Hoarders

So my schedule is pretty crazy now so I have to catch up on all my DVRed shows at odd times and today I watched Hoarders from last monday and good heavens! It's the worst show in the world and yet I can't stop watching it every week. It absolutely infuriates me.
This week the story was about a couple who's kids were taken away because of the mothers terrible hoarding problem. It was one of the worst cases they've showed on the program and I just wanted to smack this woman. Is she for real? You'd think when the cops come to your door and tell you that your children can no longer live with you that you would immediately start throwing your crap away, but it still took her fighting with a counselor over every single item to get her house cleaned up. At one point she insists on going through the trash in case their throwing something out she wants and she comes across a plastic cup from 7-11 and she actually can't decide if she wants to keep it or throw it away and I'm just watching this in total frustration thinking you are choosing trash over your own children, you insane person!
On top of that this show never has a happy ending and this couple finally got their home cleaned out and I thought for the first time they finally had a happy ending. It was looking like they were going to get their kids back and everything but then a caption comes up at the end that said the police were not convinced that this woman was over her hoarding habits (gee ya think?) so the kids couldn't come back home, the couple had filed for divorce and the woman had to take all 1700 boxes of her crap that was in her basement and move out of the house. Most depressing show ever! I should probably just stick to my comedies but you know I'll still watch it next week and still hope for a good ending.
