I won't watch any of it.
It's ridiculous.

Most of the items look like overpriced, made-in-China junk.

I love it!
CIJ is the best though, because after that, most of the Christmas programming is just a rehash of the same stuff, with a few new items thrown in now and then.
I detest the fashion/beauty/jewelry/handbags/shoes end of QVC (which is the bulk of their yearly programming) but I certainly don't deny those who enjoy it, their time to watch and relish in the events. So I guess I don't understand the backlash about the holiday shows or any other that each individual may choose as their favorite.
People who claim it ruins their holiday, over does the materialistic part of Christmas, takes away from their summer fun, or any of the other host of whining that goes on this time each year about said programming, need to just change the channel, go to the beach, or clean the house. The same things I do when I don't like what Q is broadcasting. It is as simple as support what you like with your dollars, and don't buy what offends/bores/aggravates you.
The sales will dictate the programming. Period.

I wonder how the hosts feel about all this Christmas programming. I imagine they get really sick of it too.

@brii Many of the hosts enjoy decorating too...like Jill...she has her own show and has shown many holiday decor items. And that's just one host...lots of others...like Dan who LOVES to decorate with lights. He was thrilled to show the new lights this past Thursday as a TSV.
I LOVE to decorate and I feel like I'm going through withdrawls without any decor shows for awhile.
We all have our favorite types of shows to watch, isn't that great?

I'm betting that they do as well. When I worked in retail, you were exposed to so much Christmas for so many months, it was taking some of the joy out of the holiday season, because it seems endless, starting so early, and a big part of your every day work life. So I'm sure that , especially those hosts that have been with Q for decades, get tired of it as well.
But it is part of the job, and I'm sure the paycheck received helps them 'cope' with it!

I agree with you that I can just change the channel. However, there are so many other things I used to enjoy shopping for on QVC!

I HATE the endless Christmas shows - but I guess people shop all year long for "stuff". I rarely watch QVC anymore - and maybe buy a couple of products a year. Most of the products are BORING and EXPENSIVE!!!
