AGE OF POSSIBILITY!

walker — Sat, 07 Sep 2024 00:23:35 GMT

OK....be kind....just my opinion....I guess I passed the Age of Possibility without help. For all those in this new AGE..I hope you enjoy this programming. You'll survive with or without the Q! A bit much to me....tuning out. I am so disappointed in the QVC programming recently. What is the big deal about being 50!?

I know what you mean. I am past that age too. I can understand QVC wanting to appeal to the 50-ish age group. But in my opinion, going with this programming idea not only could alienate those younger than 50, but also leaves out us older potential shoppers as well. They've sort of narrowed their target audience on both sides.

@PhilaLady1 ..... totally agree!

@walker @PhilaLady1 Since the Q is doing this as a 2 year promotion & it's been 6 months or so since it started I think we've got another 18 months of possibilities.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion and are welcome to it!

I have to say though I am watching Shawn and Mally and am thoroughly enjoying the show. They were having a blast with Gary from Denim & Co.

Their laughter is infectioius and making me smile. To each her own.

@colleena ....wow....less viewing and shopping for me! As a side....I don't mind a new promotion like this but they are making such a BIG deal out of it! There is life before and after 50!

I have either been turning off qvc, or switching to Hsn, or go to Netflix ....I cannot take the laughing cackling person!!! I know others have joined me, but nothing has been done,,It's so annoying, and distracting!

@DSD2 .... you are right...to each his own...we can't all think alike ...glad you enjoy the program. For the record...I really like Shawn...Gary too....but, Mally is best alone selling her beauty products....again ...just my opinion. I MUST BE GETTING OLD!! Can't handle all the changes! 😂😂😂

The Boomer Generation is done shopping. I'm giving my stuff away. But the next Generation X, the 50-somethings-ish, have yet to get there. So that's the whole point of the Q50 programming. I'd say it's smart move on the Q's part.

Re: AGE OF POSSIBILITY!

@SilleeMee ....good point....I think I did most of my shopping in 50's. I think they are over-doing the publicity and promotions here. Good luck to the Q. Guess they need to grab that audience because those I know 40+ have no intention of tuning in to the Q for shopping at all.

When they first introduced this I thought that I'm old enough to be the mother of a 50 year old! What about us senior ladies?

Re: AGE OF POSSIBILITY!

haddon9 — Sat, 07 Sep 2024 01:05:26 GMT

To be honest, I'm seventy and have been giving a lot of things (household items and clothing) away yet I'm updating my wardrobe and home.

I admit it, I enjoy shopping....that's one reason that I'm here.

Right? I'm not even close to 50 and just think every decade has its good and bad. I'll get there one day and deal with whatever. But now I'm scared to get there after this promotion, lol. It's like they're stirring up stuff for the sake of a selling campaign that doesn't resonate because no one is feeling any kind of way about it.

Everyone has there own likes and dislikes. I thought for awhile they were trying to appeal to a younger crowd. Well that didn't work.

Now this over 50 program. I am 65...I am so sick of it. I am very happy for the ones that love it...Yeah for you. Me..If there is a show I want..I just hit the CC and put it on mute.

DJP — Sat, 07 Sep 2024 02:17:43 GMT

I have tuned out big time. The clothing they're trying to sell is definitely not for me.

I am past the "age of possibliity" (71) so I guess that is why I cannot watch or buy into this so called programming. To me it is loud ladies acting like they are 16 again No thanks. I am happy where I am and...I did not NEED such a thing when I did turn 50 and beyond!!
