I know QVC viewers mainly want to see fashion but OMG! It's on for days and days at a time. Imo, I'm sorry but it's just way too much. And people complained about the month of x-mas in July. At least with that, you get variety.

I haven't been able to watch QVC since CIJ ended until now while reading this blog (but I will be changing it momentarily). Can't they designate a QVC channel just for fashion?

Not true. Depends. It's fashion week so that could be the reason. People complain about this if it's things they don't have an interest in.

When the seasons start to change, most people are in the mood for and want to see new clothes. QVC is only too happy to accommodate them. It's only for a brief period, then we will continue with holiday and seasonal decor and the usual mattresses and vacuums.

Since what little I buy from QVC is clothing--wouldn't call it "fashion", LOL--I like the "fashion" shows.

@Kachina624 To my knowledge, at least the "pillow guy" isn't on all weekend. Lol

@LilMadi Have faith because in a month most shows will be throws, blankets and pajamas.

Wonder what the gadget gift of the year will be?

He's not even on QVC any longer as they don't sell his products.

Two phrases come to my mind:

"You can't win for losing."

"If it's not one thing, it's another."

After the horror of July, I feel we earned a few clothing shows.

Fall/Winter clothing is my favorite, so I enjoy looking at what’s new. This past weekend was tax free weekend in my state so I took advantage of a decent savings on a few clothing items.

LOL on the "horror" of that one little CIJ month of other products taking the place of fashion (which was actually included here and there). Apparently, some fashion customers want even more fashion shows because nearly every day, hour after hour just isn't enough for them. And if anything, the ones who don't enjoy all the "HORROR" of the fashion shows are the ones who've earned a break from fashion shows and without the others complaining about it.

I'd burn my pillows if they weren't so expensive in the first place!

@LilMadi

Yep, unfortunately thats a tried and true trend of QVC....once they find a category thats selling well, UNFORTUNATELY they will RUN IT INTO THE GROUND....and apparel happens to be their big selling category at the moment ....but what they don't realize is people will buy what they need for a time BUT THEN customers will have all they need and will STOP BUYING....but that's something the Buyers and Programmers dont seem to understand.....

If they dont "watch it" (pardon the pun) they will be going the same route of SHOP HQ (or whatever they call it now)...it became THE WATCH SHOPPING CHANNEL because everytime you clicked your remote to that channel they were showing nothing but watches 🙄...and struggling to survive....3 mill loss 2021, and 18 mill loss 2020.....revenues grew in March 2022 but they got a long way to go to success....

You're so right, especially about running things into the ground. And I remember when SHOP HQ was constantly selling watches but I had no idea about their nickname. They did it with fashion too. I actually got so tired of it all that I stopped watching. It's been SO long that I don't even know what they sell anymore.

Here's an interesting article:
