Here’s a contest for the obsessive collector segment of our audience. Hoarders Season 1 hits DVD on May 25th and thanks to the fine folks at A&E, we have a copy for giveaway here at The Documentary Blog! The two disc set features all seven episodes from the first season of this hit television series. Here’s the synopsis:
Take a fascinating look inside 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, these hoarders are desperately in need of help. In each 60-minute episode of Hoarders, A&E follows two people struggling to overcome their compulsive behavior while experts work to put them on the road to recovery. For some, throwing away even the tiniest possession a sponge, a button, an empty box is so painful that they won t be able to complete the cleaning process…no matter the consequences. For others, professional help and an organizer’s guidance give them the strength to recover. At the end of each episode find out who has been able to keep their hoarding behavior at bay and who, despite help, is still lost inside this painful disease.
To win this two-disc set, simply send an email here with ‘HOARDERS DVD CONTEST’ in the subject line and I’ll pick a winner sometime next week! Good luck! As an added bonus, I’ve included a link to a video tour we shot of our good friend Reed Farrington’s house. He’s not quite hoarder material, but certainly enjoys surrounding himself with odd things. Check it out after the jump.

As a future psychologist, a fan of reality TV, and a DVD collector, no other show has appealed to me on a lot of levels than this one. Especially since my aunt is a hoarder. Great show and Reed’s house is scary
It’s a great show – very sad most of the time, but fascinating nontheless. Reed has a way to go before being classed as a hoarder I think, but the infested Star Wars chocolate is worrying !
A very disturbing show. I always feel I am on the brink of hoarderism and this acts as a great deterrent for me.
It reminds me of my grandmothers house, sad but true. She could use this show. But I still love to watch it.
I found Reed’s ideal documentary here:

Incidentally snagfilms has thousands of documentaries to watch for free, it’s a good site !
