I've been in houses like that working as an EMT, it is disgusting and more rat like than human like.
What bothers me about the show is putting a special label on these folks like "Hoarders." No, they're just crazy.

Not sure if it was this show or another, but I heard about someone who bought another house just so they would have a place to store all of their crap!

I think it was on this show. I have watched it a fair bit. Dunno why it's kinda like watching a train wreck! Ugh! I can't imagine the smell!

My sister is a hoarder in training. She used to just have a path through her house - she cna't throw anything away. She's a little better but still has strong hoarder tendencies....

I think my mom has a hoarding problem, but that show takes things to a whole other level. It's seriously fucking crazy. I've been to a house like that before... to buy a bag of dope. The entire hous was filled with trash, with small pathways to the various rooms. Strangely enough, it didn't smell... well, didn't smell like anything other than weed and crazy.

I dunno. I think they do a pretty good job identifying that those people have a problem. Granted, they handle them with kid gloves, but I think with how severe their problem is, anything otherwise would kill any sort of cooperative effort.

Have any of you seen the BBC version of clean house ("How clean is your house") with the two British ladies? That show is crazy. Some of the places they go are so unsanitary I can NOT believe people live there.
