Hoarders Preview: Second Season Premiere

I’m sure plenty of us have problems with clutter but A&E’s unscripted series Hoarders is for situations that are completely out of control. If you want to see just how bad things can get for for some people when they aren’t able to let go of the stuff that’s piling up in their houses, check out this sneak peek for the second season premiere of Hoarders.



Below is A&E’s description for the series, which returns with new episodes on Monday, November 30th at 10p/9c on A&E.

“Hoarders on A&E explores the world of extreme hoarding; a mental disorder marked by an obsessive need to collect things, even if the items are worthless, hazardous or unsanitary. The series takes a fascinating look at the lives of people whose inability to part with their belongings is so out of control that they are on the verge of a personal crisis. Whether they’re facing eviction, the loss of their children, jail time, or divorce, they are all desperately in need of help.

The series captures the drama as experts work to put each hoarder on the road to recovery. The second season premiere of Hoarders, the number one freshman non-fiction series on cable among adults 25-54, will introduce Augustine, whose son Jason was removed from her home by Child Protective Services 14 years ago, because of her hoarding. She was never able to clean up enough to have him return. Now, as an adult living on the other side of the country, he is filled with shame and resentment, but unable to turn his back on her. Augustine’s hoarding has become so severe that she has lived without water, gas, heat or appliances for the last four years -- bathing only once a week at her sister’s house. Complaints from neighbors have instigated a court ordered clean-up and the city is threatening to condemn her house. Now, “Hoarders” follows Jason as he tries one last time to rescue his mother from the filth he escaped from years ago.”
