Weekend Programing on QVC

June222 — Sun, 12 Jul 2015 14:45:44 GMT

Just AWFUL.....It could not be more boring. Wonder why they want to chase off the viewers?

weekends are snooze fests. I just don't watch much anymore. Same old stuff--and now with Xmas in the mix--just makes me even less likely to watch. and the other channels are the same. Watches on evine, and now vitamins of hsn-----snnnooozzzeee!!!!!!

The only thing I watch is ITKWD and only part of it on Sundays. I guarantee someone watches these other shows or they wouldn't be on.

Add me to the "do not watch on weekends" army.

Especially now when they will feature "Christmas" products every chance they get.

I so agree with this characterization of weekend programming on QVC. I used to watch QVC a lot more. Now my weekend viewing can be measured in seconds. I just wonder who is supposed to be watching these boring programs. Am I missing something?

You would think they would put their most interesting products on during the weekends. Strange isn't it. But I guess they researched it so maybe this is what weekend audiences want.

Yesterday's programming was mind-numbingly boring - but the programming on HSN or Evine usually isn't much better. It's not just QVC that has hours and hours of the same programming with the same products throughout the same day. HSN with the many hours of bedding or Andrew Lessman, Evine with 6 hrs of One World or OSO.

Yesterday we had HOURS of Dooney Bags... and to throw a wrench in the works they fit in a Serta bed hour and then that TS of the camera..... OMG they really know how to lose sales and put an audience to sleep!

I think the expensive camera yesterday, and today's TSV are two items that I wouldn't even want if I saw them at a garage sale. I'm happy for the people that may be enjoying the shows this weekend-but it doesn't appeal to me.

Seems like the most interesting programs are shown on weekdays during the daytime, when I cannot watch. I guess QVC's targeted demographic is people that don't work during the day. More and more I have to rely on the online product videos for things I am interested in, and I wish they would do a better job of including the entire presentation in those videos.

It's become so boring.Same products over and over and none that exciting anyway. I really wonder how they keep sales up??

Hours on mind numbing Philosophy with the bowl of suds is like icing on the cake.

Marie Osmond and her rubber bands have been on every time I hit the 'on' button.

I always enjoy seeing Marie Osmond, though........love her energy. Seems to be a genuinely nice person, too!

June2,

That is why recording and time shifting devices are so important to most. If one wants to watch tv, why not watch only shows one wants to see? Not only that, but one can "fast-forward" through the commercials. Can't beat that, right?

Bought my first time shifting device back in 1972, I chose a VHS over Betamax, and have since pretty much watched only programs I actually wanted to see.

If you don't have a DVR/Tivo or DVD Recorder? Might want to give it some thought. No more boring tv shows, and if there are? Just erase or delete them. Easy, eh?

I tried to watch last night. I turned it on and it was an hour of the TSV camera. I let out a groan and moved on.

The weekends are bad. The weekdays aren't much better. It's become largely unwatchable most of the time. Between the repetitive programming and annoying presentation formats and styles, QVC isn't even good background noise anymore. There's virtually nothing they're offering that I want to see these days.

I agree with all your comments. I would really like to be a fly on the wall during some of their staff meetings to hear how they come up with their scheduling ideas.

But, they are in the business to make money and if sales were low they would change something. Maybe, they keep doing items over and over again to catch the channel surfers. Who knows, but it is boring.
