Goodbye PM Style

Marie Antoinette — Tue, 17 Mar 2015 03:36:40 GMT

I'm a very good QVC customer. I'm a baby boomer. I guess QVC is going after a younger audience which is good business. I would remind them, however, that baby boomers still have money to spend. I have enjoyed PM style for many years. I'm sure Shawn is a lovely person but she is not for me. I feel like the whole show has been infantilized and cutsified for a younger audience and I am not interested in watching. At least give me Jayne and Pat. I am no longer interested in this show but I think that is what QVC wants---younger viewers, a little less sophistication. OK.

I agree ~ used to enjoy PM style a lot ~ it was more well rounded before. I'm pleased with Pat & Jayne on Friday Night ! Enjoy both of them very much , even hosting alone ~ relatable .

The new PMS set is bright and attractive, and they're trying hard to make the show fresh and "new". But they're still mixing in all the non-fashion items with the fashions, and I'm so over it. I watched a couple of segments of the show this evening, but gave up and moved on.

I wholeheartedly agree. I too am a baby boomer and QVC customer from the beginning. PMS is not for me either. Yes give me Pat and Jayne also! They truly know how to do it right!

I just heard Shawn say that she doesn't wear pants or jeans or skirts but mostly wears dresses. Near as I can tell, it's only recently that she's started to wear dresses. For the longest time she only wore leggings with layers of logo and boots. She always mentions that she's into comfort clothing. What is anybody supposed to believe?

Why does it matter what Shawn wears? Whatever she's selling, she uses or wears.

I am not seeing where QVC is going after a younger audience. From what I see their target customer is in the 50 plus range. Haven't seen where their clothes would interest a younger audience, other than some of their shoes. Definitely not seeing the young crowd buying a lot of Quacker Factory or Carole Hochman.

My point is that if she's not truthful with her audience, why should we believe anything she says about the products she's selling.

Excellent point, K9buddy. There were many posts a few weeks ago concerning her lack of honesty. Even Isaac referenced her heels and foot problems on his show this evening.

She wore jeans on air just last week. It speaks to credibility, which believe it or not, is important in sales, as it is in life.

Boomer here too. I think they forget we not only have more money to spend on ourselves but are the largest age group in the country right now. I like stylish, you don't have to be 20 to buy stylish.

I like how Shawn kind of just slinked her way into that. I have to agree though, her speech, her tone, is bizarre and just watching the angle she keeps her neck makes my own neck hurt. I guess she thinks that it looks cute to do that. She will regret it in ten years. Fine for those who love baby talk, odd acronyms and semi-coherent narrative but it detracts from the items for me.

I liked when they used Sandra Bennett because she has a more soft-spoken style more in line with what Lisa had and in line with PM Style tradition. I thought they would stay with Sandra but I guess what Shawn wants, Shawn gets. They have to realize too much over-the-top presenting wears on people. Good luck to them.

Not for me. I look at what is on offer and can decide for myself what will fit my taste, style and life. I am sure that I am not alone. I don't watch the Q for the hosts - they have to sell whatever they are told to sell. I do watch some for "entertainment" but that is something entirely different to my purchases. I trust my own judgement about myself.

I agree. It's about consistency. Based on her words she is "not a pant person", "not a handbag person", "not a foundation person", "not lace person", etc. etc. Yet, she loves every product "she is NOT".....and today she "revealed a secret of her bad feet" - wedges and 7 layers of Isaac's shoes....umm...really?? I'm pretty sure she wore other high heel shoes as well.....

"adorbs" was the best part....NOT.....I get the use of short cuts in text messages...but on TV?? Seems odd. I don't like it just like I don't like to hear "fab", "delish", or "hon", but perhaps it's just me....

Totally agree with the OP and it is goodbye P.M.Style for me too. First time ever I switched off tonight decided not to waste my time watching - Shawn is not for me - did not watch Isaac either so will find other things to watch on Mondays now.
