I am so over ALL shopping channels spending 30 minutes to hours on ONE ITEM. Stop it!!! HSN has been talking about mascara and perfume for 2 hours now. The same item. Geez, do you think we are idiots and enjoy this?? Lets move on to something new, that is why I watch for the variety! If I need more info I will go to your website or consumer reports....

Same with QVC and their HALO this past weekend. I would NOT buy one because of your endless boring presentations.

Yep bothers the heck out of me! Who wants to sit and listen to the same old spiel for an hour on one item? That is just ridiculous!!!!!!!I probably won't bother with the Beauty Report tonight!

That's why I don't watch - I mostly treat QVC like any other online store and only watch a few shows that I'm interested in. I record shows like That's Cool with Jane or shows about solutions because those do tend to have more variety.

I don't think shopping exist to keep us entertained. And those of us who have been watching and shopping for decades now have seen it all a millions times. I got to the point where I really don't watch any of them on tv very much. I totally stopped watching HSN. Don't get me wrong, the UPS guy or the Usps guy visit my house almost every day, I shop a lot. I just do it from Qvc.com now because 30 years of watching Qvc got to me after a while.

Years ago, I watched QVC and ordered holiday gifts. I do not do that anymore. I cannot stand the infomercials, the repetition, and the awful shipping charges. I no longer watch and I no longer order any gifts from QVC. If I think QVC has something I might want, for me...not for gifts, I look online. I hope with a change in CEOs, there will be a change in focus. The direction QVC has been following lately is not encouraging me to watch.

I agree. I think we have seen all the inventory they are offering for the holiday season. Nothing unique or clever. I have done some of my on-line shopping elsewhere.

I agree with them going on and on for entire shows with one or maybe two items. Since the TSV gets shown all day long just do it for five minutes and get onto more products. It isn't like people won't see them throughout the day and night.
