Since I use the app to shop QVC, it makes no difference to me anymore what programming is scheduled. The boring weekend lineup of mattresses and vacuums initially drove me away from live programming about 4 years ago. Also, the heavy emphasis on processed foods killed my enjoyment of ITKWD, so I got out of the habit of turning on the station to see what was happening. For those who enjoy regularly watching QVC but do not need or want holiday items or find it too much too early, I can understand why they are dissatisfied. Those that can't get enough of Christmas programming must be buying as well as watching, so the barrage continues. QVC isn't going to kill its golden goose (unless it can be sold on a food fest-ha).

ETA: from a practical viewpoint, shipping problems and stock availability are also driving some of this heavy Christmas programming. I know I've been picking up a few things locally while the selection is still good.

For , I do like to see all the new Christmas decorating items , however I purchase very few. I did buy a couple of small items in July to update my collection and bought 2 items as gifts for family. I don't want to go bankrupt buying batteries for many items . I don't want to store many items all yr round. So for me it's like going in a Christmas shop at the beach during the summer. It's fun to look .

I'm one of those who doesn't mind the Christmas programming craze. The only thing I simply can't watch is the toy shows, but other than that I like seeing the decor and what people are buying, even though I am not. Alberti is on with VPH this afternoon so I plan on having that show on, I love them together. Whatever floats your boats, enjoy it

I enjoy the holiday shows, especially now because I plan to be finished with all of my shopping by the end of September! With all the shipping and availability problems all throughout retail, I am not frustrating myself with advance orders well beyond Christmas. So all the advance orders on things now are not a problem for me.

I watch QVC & HSN on Roku, so I can also shop holiday items that are presented by hosts, but do not get show airings.

Both QVC and HSN have really been pushing their Roku streaming channels lately. I have a feeling they may be going to all streaming channels only in the very near future. They have tons of stuff on all those channels.

As always, these holiday shows are over-kill starting in July. And almost evedrything is advance orders.....thank you QVC for this porogramming because I am not spending money with you...my money goes to Amazon or Target.

I have far too much seasonal decor and can't store anymore but I will watch Valerie for ideas. The rest of the holiday programming has no appeal for me.

An opposite point of view--- I love the Holiday Shows---🎄 🎅 some times I purchase something, other times I don't but I still get lots of decorating ideas----To me these shows are fun to watch..... On the other hand I HATE the beauty shows and the Holiday Gourmet shows----too each their own and I only watch what I like....

I don't decorate or send gifts anymore but I enjoy the holiday shows too. I especially like Valerie's and David's "Big" shows.

I tune out when they're promoting a kitchen or jewelry day or any electronic shows. Also don't normally watch beauty shows unless it's one of the few vendors whose products I use. Not into most of the fashion 'designer' programs either.
