I was wrong. There is one host that would entice me to watch tonight. Alberti. Very calm delivery and you can tell he is kind. He can also be playful and entertaining. Yep...Alberti.

Shawn has a pretty long posting re: the new show and details if you are interested in the particulars.

Good------that will be when I catch up On Demand of all the TV I missed Sunday night. Can't tolerate any of those people anyway, so no big deal!

On 3/1/2015 Tenners said: I must confess I haven't watched on Monday since Lisa left. I felt that she lent a little humor and a nice girlfriend atmosphere to PM Style, and I found it a relaxing way to blunt the first workday of the week. I'm surprised at my lack of affinity to any of the other hosts. I don't really watch any show religiously anymore. Not sure if I've outgrown QVC or if i've just grown bored with their products. Big Bonanza was a real snooze the few times I tuned in. Every time I did I saw that silver Ecclissi watch. The only thing I look forward to is seeing Antonella in Italy. I missed her when she went with Lisa years ago. She might be fun to watch and I do love Italy. Hopefully they'll show some really nice pieces this year. Does anyone know when that will be on?

I don't know if you do FB Tenners, but even if you don't, you can hop over to Lisa's page and read all the fun things the gals post and what she has been up to since she left the Q! Lisa is pretty active around her page and she posts some of the most beautiful pictures of the things she has been doing! I don't do FB but I do read the hosts' FB pages to see what's upcoming, etc. and she has one of the nicest FB pages even after leaving! She regularly interacts with her fans and if you haven't checked it out, I think you might enjoy it. The atmosphere is still that nice girlfriend chit chat like she kept it at the Q. Just a thought for you since I enjoy checking out her posts. One problem: she does tend to post pics of some of THE most delicious food and if it's before dinner, you know you are in for trouble

Thanks, A Walker. I'll take a look at her FB page but I don't do FB anymore. I did look her up on Pinterest, too. Very interesting stuff there. I am addicted to Pinterest.

I'll give it a try; I'm very curious to see how they pull off an entire hour of LOGO every week as most of the offerings are just variations on a theme (however nice).

I am looking forward to the new Monday night fashion lineup! IMO the old PM Style format had gotten very old and tiresome, especially since QVC diluted it with so many non-fashion items. The new lineup gives an hour each to Lori Goldstein and Isaac Mizrahi, two of QVC's most popular designers, plus an hour each to "Inspired Style" with Amy and "PM Style" with Shawn, presumably featuring offerings from numerous fashion lines. I'm liking the new variety and more lively pace and am keeping my fingers crossed that they'll stay focused on real fashion items! The first face cream, hair styler, pair of socks, hair removal device, or Clarisonic I see will be an immediate "thumbs down" from where I sit. We want fashion on Monday nights!

And in response to some of the comments above, I consider Lori Goldstein one of the most interesting and watchable design personalities on QVC! Love to see her fresh, unconventional take on style.

I am actually looking forward to Monday nights now. I enjoy watching fashion. Every Monday. Wow. I like it.

I've always enjoyed IM's show even though I am not a fan of Shawns. I have some logo items and I like them but a whole hour every week? That I am not so sure of.

As far as PM style in its new timeslot, well, I'll probably fall asleep before its over, so moving IM to an earlier timeslot actually works for me.

I agree, too, that I would prefer it if Shawn would not go into the gloom and doom that she seems to run toward (in between making up words) on some of the pieces. I can tune into other channels for that!

Unless QVC comes up with better fashions (since right now they are totally in a rut IMO), it won't matter.

With the new S&H policy, I've pretty much already decided to curtail my purchases at QVC for clothing in particular since their sizing is so inconsistent it has become too difficult to figure out and I'm not paying $$$ to return a badly made or poorly fitting shoe or pants.

I love fashion but five hours is too much for me. I know I'll pop in during commercial breaks to get a feel for this new format but the 10pm PMS is too late for me.

You all made some good comments about other designers having their own shows, but I really do hope we see new items being brought in rather than a bunch of the same fashions. I'm lucky that I happen to enjoy Lori and even enjoy Isaac; but since Shawn is talking up her new timeslot big time, I hope we get to see a variety of designers, keeping Lori and Isaac as the bookends.

I also think Shawn will add in some of her jewelry and inspirational pieces she seems to enjoy selling, but I <em>really do hope</em> she keeps it lighthearted in the sense that it's fashion and not a depressing chat about death and hopes being dashed and all that. People watch to escape all of those emotions, and that was one of the things I so enjoyed about Lisa. She could goof around but at the same time was always so knowledgeable about fashion and so intelligent!

Yes!!

That's funny. I'm waiting for them to add violin music in the background during these presentations. On the flip side, good for her, putting herself out there like she does. You wouldn't catch me talking about my personal tragedies on national TV, at least not without Dr. Phil and his ever-present hankie.
