I agree! Susan Graver drives me "bonkers!" I always turn the sound off when I want to watch her show. She is rude to the host, talks over them and won't let them get a word in. I'm surprised that QVC doesn't have a talk with her but then, again, they probably don't want to lose her business!!

There should be a section where we could go right to management regarding her rude behavior - would like to see her fashions but she makes me hyper... She is making a lot of customers annoyed...

Susan has a Facebook page where she will definitely see your comments. She also answers any person who posts there; wonder if she would for this.

She is making the Q plenty of dollars or she wouldn't be there for so long.

I'll tune in to her shows from time to time for a couple of minutes or seconds -- and it seems to be getting worse.

Thank you all posters. Now let's see if anyone attacks you like they attack me when I make comments about Graver. That is all.

I'm not ""attacking"" anyone but do you realize how many posts there are like this? It's just silly because it's been going on for literally years. I'm sure people have written QVC management and/or emailed them and it seems it's all gone by the wayside. You can send your comments via Facebook or email Susan ... but really nothing is gonna change. Why would you watch someone you don't enjoy? It really is just part of her personality.

Not giving others a chance to speak and talking over them is not very popular anywhere.

It is very unpleasant. Another thing that annoys me is whey you start a sentence and before you can finish it, another person does it for you. My husband is famous for that. I've told him over, and over, and over, and over again. He says "oh sorry." But he still does it.

Grace, I join you... I and others have been royally raked over the coals numerous times on numerous threads and have been told to "stop posting disgusting vile remarks about Susan" -- which I never have anyway. There are more vile remarks directed toward people who feel as you and I do than there are about SG.

I actually think Susan is probably a sweet, fun, person ... but I also think she has developed a problem over the last few years with her "on air" personna. I don't know what or why, I just know it's there, and I think a lot of people have on rose-colored glasses where she is concerned. They will defend her to the "dea^th", as the saying goes. I will never think her actions are okay, no matter who says otherwise or how many times they tell me to "change the channel". I would like to be able to sit and enjoy a nice, calm fashion show and see the garments, all the details, and be able to actually "hear" them as well. I can do that with Liz Claiborne, with Lori Goldstein, with Denim & Co, even with Isaac and Shawn... why not with Susan?

However, I'm sure that's never going to happen. But we have a right to continue to express our opinions on these forums... others "vent" and express strong opinions about other hosts, products, vendors, you name it, over and over again, but we're not allowed to say anything at all about SG? As I've already said, those who don't agree can feel free to skip any posts that bother them, just as they tell us to "change the channel" if SG bothers us. But they won't do that, because it would take away all their fun, wouldn't it???

Thanks for the support kittymomNC. Whether an opinion is positive, negative or even very negative, like the ones about Graver, ALL people are entitled to their opinion. That's why it's called a forum.

susan graver is obnoxious....jumping around the set and continuously talking about how wonderful her clothing is...funny, she never remembers color names, fabrics- or "i'll have to order that". you designed it and you have to order it? or do you mean, you'll have to go back to asia - pick out styles and put your label on it - then ship to the usa. sorry, you are not a designer. you poo-pooed other designers on the show about asymmetrical hem; however, you're copying everyone else...either that, or you're all shopping at the same Asian warehouses and using your own brand. qvc, it's time for a change! I think she's made her big bucks-we need new blood.

kittymomNC - I totally agree with you on every point! You've posted what I think in my head but could never post as perfectly as you did!

What amazes me is that for years there have been countless posts about this problem but nothing changes. SG may be a lovely person but the powers that be have to do something about the constant interruptions and the over-the-top behavior. The reason is that viewers cannot stand it. We change the channel. Maybe QVC couldn't care less if sales are strong, but maybe sales could be stronger and perhaps sales of items in the following hour might suffer once we tune out. I don't watch QVC very much anymore but when I do a Q-check and Susan is on I find I can't watch for more than a couple of minutes. There must be a way to train Susan to learn appropriate on-air behavior and demeanor. Meanwhile, I'll keep changing the channel.

The other day when she was on with her skort Tsv, and she was on very often, she was literally hyper! Probably the worst I've ever seen her. She was all over the stage, singing, blabbering, talking, hollering out "hello gorgeous", squatting and every thing else once while squatting, Pat seemed to be deliberately ignoring her so Susan said, "hey, Pat,look at me!" She was awful!! It was like she was on speed, but actually just high on herself!! I caught a show tonight on q's alternate channel and couldn't believe my ears or eyes! Susan was so subdued I barely knew her. Sure seemed do pleasant. I wondered if she'd read some of the complaints abr her, someone hold her a to them or was just plain tired. Time will tell.

Krimpette — Mon, 25 May 2015 12:18:12 GMT

Does anyone really think Susan is going to change? Susan will always be Susan. As long as her sales remain high, nothing is likely to change.

Moonchild2 — Mon, 25 May 2015 13:50:47 GMT

I tried to watch the presentations of the TSV skirt the other day. Susan was so obnoxious. Running around the set and pulling her skirt up in the front and the back. Totally inappropriate. Just can't watch her so I just turn the channel.

While SG is sitting in the green room awaiting her turn on-air, I am assuming her consumption of multiple cups of coffee caused this frantic display of hyperactivity. I witnessed this particular show-on-air myself and could not believe it, and I rarely watch.
