Home search shows using the words “entertaining” and space” ad nauseam

Dear Facebook,
Watched a handful of episodes of Mexico Life this morning where people from the US are looking for a home/condo somewhere down in Mexico.
I’m not exaggerating, each episode has the word “space” mentioned at least 20 times.
…. and I didn’t realize that everybody on the planet (other than me) “entertains” 24/7, 365 … including couples with newborn babies. Impressive, I must say.
Literally every episode the couple talks about how they love to entertain, and every house they saw they talked about how wonderful the house was for entertaining and they can’t wait to entertain in their new entertaining space.
Am I the only person who was annoyed by this?
Do you prioritize entertaining when buying a house?

We just did.
For a show specifically on buying a home, I would expect them to use specific words frequently, such as “space”. Similar to watching a baseball game and hearing them say “strike” a lot.

Never fails to make me cringe. I think people are more in love with the idea of themselves "entertaining" than actually entertaining itself.

We did with our house in Sun Valley but not the ones we have in Aspen or the Hamptons.

We were watching one episode and we’re thinking ain’t no F way you are doing any entertaining if you can only afford a condo that’s 700 ft.² and you have newborn twins
Sounds like part of me still wants to believe those shows are not scripted

The firefighter and yoga instructor have a strict budget of $700,000.

“Open concept” has to be up there.

We host Christmas, Easter, July4, and a few birthdays every year, on the calendar. Then there's one-offs, usually one or two a year. So we actually do need entertaining space. Luckily we bought in 2017 before the market went insane, otherwise we would not have all the entertainment space. In today's market, we'd be renting a singlewide in meth country.

It's all about BIG BUSINESS and their subliminal attempt to increase charcuterie board sales

This is the best
It's the same with the vacation home shows where 2 teachers are looking for a $1,000,000 beach house
