WATCHING LESS OF THE Q?

DiAnne — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 22:15:42 GMT

I find myself watching less and less.

I can't afford the gold at the current prices.

Do not like the quality of IM and LC of NY.

Shoes do not come in my size.

I used to love Fashion Day now I don't even bother.

Used to always watch In The Kitchen on Sunday morning - now it is just lame.

Does anyone else fell like this?

I watch about half as much as I did previously. It has nothing to do with the quality of the products or customer service. Since we are not allowed to express our opinions on these forums, I will let the powerful people at QVC figure out why I watch less.

I watch based on what the programing is. I enjoy fashion and beauty. So those are the days I watch or just have it on on the background. When they have marathon hours of CIJ or sleep number beds, computers, vacuums etc, I do not watch.

No more or no less. ITKWD is the only show I ever watch and not much of that during the summer or football season. I still manage to buy a lot as I check the 'recently on' here.

Between the so-called designers that are featured, everything looks the same. The celebs that push their stuff aren't designers at all. What's that all about? If others enjoy the sales, then okay, buy away. The Q isn't what it used to be and it's just ordinary stuff now.

Laura Geller & Wen are the only shows I make a point of watching. Used to watch AM Style & PM Style regularly, but just don't like the hyper sales tactics and fast-talking. NOT blaming the hosts at all, they're just doing what they're told!

I see this original post is from 2011....how did it get re-started and why???

just wondered about that. To answer the question, I watch way LESS of QVC, shop way LESS too. Too many hosts are irritating, products too repetitive, prices too high, returns too costly, and on and on.

LOL, I didn't even notice the date.

Since I do some of my work from home, I don't watch TV while here and it's been years since I followed the TV version of the Q. I am a faithful customer online, though.

This summer, I have been watching it when I do cardio at the gym, and darned if I can resist those presentations. I just bought the Dr. D TSV. I've been thinking about changing my skin care for months, and there was the TSV. They can even sell me with the sound off, as my headphones are hooked up to my Ipod.

The programming is so poor - boring and repetitive, the sizing inconsistent, shipping and handling is ridiculous if you need to return, nothing ever really goes on sale, you can't talk about anything on these forums without either getting slammed by some jerks posting or having it deleted by some as yet undefined consistent standard,-just vague generalizations, the camaraderie that was here at one time( say 10 years ago) is virtually non existent no matter how we try, the hosts have for the most part become actors in their own private plays which do not include actually presenting the item for sale .... I wont bore you with any more. So em ... no, I barely watch. I will say that I watched a D&B show the other night hosted by Antonella and let me tell you ... it was great. No BS about monied, Hamptons or other phony "aspirational" stuff and the descriptions were actually about the bag and not a generic amazing or beautiful repeating twice whenever used.

Good point @HB glamma!

Its a 2011 thread lol!

Goes to show the complaints about the shows

etc. aren't due to recent developments.

I stopped watching as much several years ago

as they morphed more and more into

being infomercials and having fewer and

fewer product lines.

I'm not watching quite as much as I used to. Unfortunately, my Q bill isn't reflecting that. LOL!

Re: WATCHING LESS OF THE Q?

stevieb — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 03:21:41 GMT

Much less. Basically, my viewing has declined significantly over time to the point where I'm essentially not watching anymore. Once in a great while something will catch my attention, but it's rare.

The question is:

How would we have responded

in 2011 when this thread was

originally started?
