@Qvcjane I like some of it but not all of it ... like me just watch what you like as there's lots of choices out there.

Me too. It's bad enough that they start the holiday pitches in August or September. Talk about sucking the life out of Christmas. No I don't watch on tv or online.
part of my issue is the utter junk they peddle, as being perfect gifts for everyone. Sets of cheap flashlights, beauty gift sets that you can break apart into separate gifts. Like any woman receiving these wouldn't know. I was given a bathrobe one Christmas that was a free gift with purchase at Ulta. 🙄 and the toys they offer. Oh brother. I can only imagine kids dreading gramma's annual QVC presents.

I agree, Christmas in July is just a desperate way for merchants to push their products.

things that bother me don't because i don't watch or embrace them

find what you like and watch and embrace that

this could not be easier

I'm not fond of CIJ either but try to be a good sport about it as I know others love it. If they just didn't load it with so much cheap-looking plastic junk!

@Qvcjane i do not particularly care what you "hate".

There are categories i dont really watch like fashion. But do i HATE it? . Go do something else and quit expecting to watch a shopping channel 24 hours a day 7 days a week. My goodness.

I've been underwhelmed, can't say I "hate" it because I rarely watch any segments from beginning to end. I usually just see "items recently on air" and can pick & choose. I do love to watch VPH's shows but even her items haven't caught my eye yet. I'm not sure what I'm reallyh looking for, I'm an older shopper and really don't "need" anything because of my accumulated things. If things go as usual, I'll see things I have to have sometime in November when it's too late to get

You never know why someone hates something so judgment is best left unspoken.

Funny story. I have hated Christmas for a long time (horrible story). My mom could never understand but that's because I couldn't talk about it. My attitude changed after she died and I know she did that. I now tolerate Christmas with a smile but I still avoid everything I can. I'd be happy to go from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day.

For me, the only good things about Christmas are Mass and family getting together.

Personally and in my opinion, the word 'hate' is such a strong word. If a tv shopping channel hosting a CIJ show/s is that offensive, surely you can find something else to do or watch.

I don't mind it and I am not sure why it continues to be a topic on here. It is what it is, happens every year........I'm not buying but I do like to watch VPH shows just for the decor ideas as I've said before. It's no biggie, soon we'll be on to Halloween, like very soon.

@smoochy Your post is funny! You made a few good points!

I noticed last year and this year that Valerie Parr Hill collection and QVC's own 'Kringle' brand of seasonal items appear to be of Dollar Tree quality. Something has happened with both lines, as I have purchased both and they were unique...no more.

Never Fear.

You may strongly dislike it, but hate is a bit much. Many viewers look forward to it, I don't care for Dyson, mattresses, electronics, LOGO, and other things but I don't hate them.

@seaBreeze I bought a set of VPH faceted candlesticks and they are in no way "dollar store" quality. They are gorgeous! Very high quality! Not everything is "dollar store junk".

I have to agree with you @Qvcjane. When the Christmas season finally arrives, I'm worn out.

Haven't watched one second of any of it. Garbage.

OMG, I'M sure the OP didn't mean anything criminal or dangerous using the word "hate." I "hate" going to the dentist. I "hate" paying $5/gal of gas, I "hate" it when people's choice of words are scrutinized 6 ways to Sunday.
