I happen to be watching 'Clean Sweep' as I read this thread. I can't believe how people let rooms become impassible, with stuff stacked knee deep everywhere. I find cluttered bedrooms especially disturbing. How the heck do married couples live with junk all over their bedroom? I"m sure that much junk in the bedroom must say something about the state of the marriage.
I find these shows to be addictive. It's like watching a trainwreck. The homeowners all have nice houses and absolutely no problem filling room after room with junk. You can almost understand couples with children having a lot of stuff, but many of these couples are childless or empty nesters. Yuck.
