Programming overload

new jersey diva — Sat, 29 Nov 2014 22:53:19 GMT

I will not watch all of the electronic and gifting shows. I find the programming redundant, pushy, boring and without any variety.

Programming underload!

Q sure isn't the shopping network it used to be.

You are SO right. It's all of the above and I'm not watching it either. I'm also not shopping, well, I'm not shopping here.

I haven't watched QVC since Wednesday. Nothing of interest to me this entire weekend.

QVC exec's WHAT ARE YOU DOING? The biggest shopping time of the year & all you do is present the same old stuff. Can't imagine how the parent co. of QVC is happy about the programming of the US QVC. Can't wait for the final quarter report of US QVC. If they show a profit-----I'll seriously doubt it.

Not only the same stuff over and over and over, but Jane Treacy, Jane Treacy, Jane Treacy ... Ever since Lisa Robertson announced her departure Jane Treacy has been on every single evening ... Not only that, but the night Lisa put her announcement on Facebook, Jane was absolutely giddy with excitement and drooling over the vendors like long lost family from Russia ... Once again I had to turn her off ... Maybe we will have PM Style with Jane Treacy, followed by Shoe Shopping with Jane ... Where is my program guide for HSN ... Oh here it is ...

I agree, same old terrible programming-the hosts seem especially frantic in their selling approach, too much Jane t. And Rick, need better products and more soothing voices, imo.- also s/h is ridiculous, much better deals Macy's, kohls, Amazon and other sites.

Jane's all right, but if she's thinking she's going to be the next big thing, somebody really ought to tell her that her ship pretty much sailed... Agreed though, way too much Rick. Along with the unfortunate programming he's also a big reason not to watch.

Yep

Me either, other than watching a couple of Halo TVS presentations. I am considering those for gifts, so wanted to catch 1-2 of those presentations. Otherwise the line-up has been HORRIBLE!!!!

My gosh, it's just been the same things over and over for going on four days... The hosts must be ready for padded cells by now.

I have not been able to watch the Q for almost a month now, because I refuse to watch yet another computer/vacuum presentation. I don't think they care, really. But I have caught up on many Hallmark Christmas movies while I've been knitting Christmas stockings for new family members!

Can't wait until Spring fashion starts sneaking in! Hopefully the computers and vacuums will take a nice long vacation....someplace far, far away!

65and fabulous....I admire your optimism.....but I think the computers, vacuums, Keurig, and Vitamix is the status quo at QVC these days ALL YEAR LONG!

Maybe this just shows that QVC can't attract any new vendors??

how can I ditto all 13 posts? well, ditto.

BORING!!!!!!!!! Just plain BORING!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel for the hosts having to show the same stuff over and over and over and over. And those TSVs……having to talk endlessly about a single product. Interesting how the ""host favorites"" are the same stuff that's been pushed for the past several weeks!!!! Only LR seems able to escape the monologues about the same stuff.

Sad to have to agree Spurt. I think this is it.. It's what they now do and I don't see it changing, regardless of the season.

If you took vacuums and laptops away from QVC they wouldn't have anything to sell.

I KNOW, THE PROGRAMMING FOR THIS CHRISTMAS IS JUST AWFUL. SAME OLD THINGS, BEEN ON FOR YEARS ALREADY. THEN TOO MUCH DYSON AND COMPUTERS, NO CLOTHING SHOWS AT ALL. SAME OLD XMAS GIFTS AS LAST SEVERAL YEARS, YOU WOULD THINK SOMEONE COULD COME UP WITH SOME GOOD IDEAS AND NEW THINGS.

TOO MANY SHOE SHOWS, TOO MUCH BEAUTY SHOWS, NEED DECORATING THINGS, YARD THINGS, GARDEN THINGS. THEY DEFINITELY NEED SOME NEW BUYERS WITH SOME COMMON SENSE.

IT IS SAVING ME MONEY SINCE I DONT FIND ANYTHING TO BUY OR WATCH
