Susan Graver used to be the only one talking over everyone.  Drives me nuts.  Now it seems like most of the hosts are doing the same thing.  The shows are almost impossible to watch because you don't know what anyone is saying.  Today one of the hosts was talking over so much I couldn't understand what he was saying.  Thought he was about to have a stroke.  Thankfully he didn't.  Has anyone else noticed this or is it just this cranky old lady.

It bothers me that the hosts talk so fast!   

 

Seems to be the new "trend."

It's impolite to talk over another person who is speaking and I'm not willing to listen to it, so I always mute Qvc.

havent noticed it that much at all and when i do, it doesnt really bother me, especially on a shopping channel. if it was a real life conversation, it might.

@coffee drinker 

 

The older I get, the faster people tend to talk.  I tell them my ears can't hear as fast as you talking.  It's always much younger folks.  For some reason, the guys don't tend to talk as fast.

@coffee drinker  if you are a cranky old lady then count me in. That's why I quit watching cold turkey in 2003. I started with them in 1987, and bought everything with them, watched all day everyday just about.  Then I couldn't  take it, it was Susan G!  At first they promoted her every day, she was having several shows a week , then TSV was hers at least once twice  a week. That meant she woukd be on many times a day.  She yakked yakked yaked, spun ..twirled,was so obnoxious !  The talking was so bad, I was actually getting nervous, on edge, lol!  My husband would yell from downstairs, turn that person down!!!   Her clothing  didn't appeal to me,anyway.  Then, it was another host. I then said,that's it!  By then online shopping was good with QVC.  So that's where I go when I need something. Online!  I am sure SG has mellowed, but I can't get back into watching, the product delivery is slow it's like watching water boil. Too much socialization, not any product info.  The internet is too vast and competitive.  That said,I think QVC is a solid, good company and provides a great service to millions of people. Just not me right now.

I can't keep up with the news people !

 

It's all commercials anyway. They tell one bit of news then switch to 5 commercials. Come back talk live to one person.   5 commercials again.

 

Plenty time to go to the john or get some water.

we think this because we are old. Didn't seem to be a problem for me when I was younger. Sad but true. Haha every old person I know says that younger ppl talk too fast.
