How about a separate QVC channel just devoted to 24 hours of Christmas?

That way those of us who can not stand Christmas programing would not have to be subject with the lousy Christmas programing stuffed down our throats. Everyone would be happy.

Yes, please~~! A separate channel as in QVCplus. Perhaps call it QVCholiday especially since we've had to endure 24-hour events~~!

This 'season of the year' is precious to some of us, and to see commerce revel in it for its profit is disheartening--let alone it has been airing since July~~!

Oh yes!! I hate the Christmas programming. And it looks like they're starting earlier this year with the full day programming and all weekend too. I cannot and do not watch one second of it.

A separate venue, channel or whatever should satisfy those who love it and bring in just as much cash.

Wow Not a pity party , but a different point of view.

I have a different take, though I know the commercial reasoning behind retailers introduction of Christmas items.

My holidays as a child were horrid, so I have lots of lost time to "make up for." We weren't poor, but my "dad" had "interests" outside of the family and we never enjoyed holidays- be it a new outfit or candy at Easter, nor a celebration of Thanksgiving or Christmas- and surely none of the giving or festivities that went with them.

Holidays only gave my "dad" one more excuse to rant like a mad man .

Because of this, and the child still inside me who wasn't afforded a normal childhood, I celebrate the holidays to the fullest. That doesn't mean digging into the wallet and being in debt the remainder of the year, but I do indulge based on a budget.

I love the music, the decorations, and meaning of the day. I relish each holiday season and they bring much joy, and yes still a little sadness of holidays lost and "what could have been."

This too shall pass. We will return to the same ole items, and be speaking of Valentines day ( the next money maker for retailers ) , right around the corner.

You'll find my heart at the Rainbow Bridge.

Some of us love 24hr cooking, some 24hr crafts, some 24hr fashion or jewelry. Whatever. Stores - and QVC is a store- make 80% of their yearly sales over Christmas . If someone is so addicted to a tv shopping channel that they can't go one day without watching it, they have deep issues.Not to mention there are 3 or more different shopping channels on TV now. Turn the channel - watch something different, turn on the radio and listen to some music or just be quiet and enjoy the peacefullness. A lot of viewers enjoy the Christmas shows and I am sure QVC makes a lot of money when they are on , or else they would not be on so much.

@twocent they have after Christmas sales for weeks AFTER Christmas.....then start up with Christmas in July in March! It is just too much. A separate channel would appease everyone.

stuffed down your throat? Wow, does someone from QVC come into your home, tie you to your chair in front of the TV, turn the TV on and set the channel to QVC?

Here's a suggestion - perhaps you should start your own TV shopping channel and run it the way you think QVC should run theirs. Just a thought.

I can't believe how many people apparently have to have their QVC on 24 hours a day and have some sort of withdrawal that demands outrage expressed in posts telling QVC to run their business to suit them! Good grief!
