A new group should be formed for those that aren't happy with this..........the Over the hill crusty club ......sounds about right

I just saw the end of the over 50 fiasco & saw JT’s threat about her daughters. I saw her daughter’s dance video online, not sure which one but she is talented. If you are a public figure, comment constantly about your child(ren), you are putting them out there & people will comment in response. Children shouldn’t be fair game but they are as she constantly references them. She’s a proud mother & her references do not bother me but she should tone it down if her kids are affected & hurt by nasty comments.

JT just came full force up to the camera and did her threat of coming after anyone that says anything bad about her daughters on social media, lol.


@snipsnapsnur .. Then she should stop bringing attention to them by talking about them so much.  Shoppers don't need to hear about their families.

To all posters above. I agree with you. Q execs clearly don't and are builiding on 

 the over 50 nonsense they started last year - going on tour and creating the over 50

Q FB page.Don't ask me how, but it's obviously driving sales. I worked in tv/PR and marketing. These shows would never continue if they weren't driving sales and ratings.

Looks like it's here to stay. 


@ellaphant .. I was thinking the same thing. I agree with all the comments but the show must be making money or they wouldn't keep it.  Someone is buying.

Yes, QVC has edited out the threatening finger-pointing in the official video, but it's available out there in the vast interweb. 

 

They can run, but they can't hide from social media they can't control. 

 

It's available in full on YouTube.

Given how hosts behave during regular airing, I knew this would be a dumpster fire.

 

The Over 50 is supposed to be about lifting up women over 50. Instead, it's insulting to watch women degrade themselves by screaming over each other, trying to outdo one another, and behaving like middle school girls. It has nothing to do with lifting up anyone.

QVC has obviously put a lot of resources into their Over 50 campaign. In theory, I think it's a fine idea to try to draw a younger demographic into the fold. Let's face it, many of us, including me at 75, are full blown senior citizens who started watching in our 50's. I certainly don't expect my group to be their focus.

 

But, why oh why, have they made Jane, Mally, Shawn etc. the face of their campaign ? I suggest they do a reboot and bring in hosts and vendors in their 50's who look stylish and can be fun without immediately resorting to childish, crude behavior in a cringeworthy attempt to be hip? I can't imagine my lovely dil seeing Jane as a role model to emulate in a few years.

I'm out. 


I didn't see the show because ,  don't watch her. And she's coming after people? How exactly is she going to do that? So she needs to shut up about her daughters, since nobody cares about them, and this kind of talk is childish bull. I wouldn't get upset over this stupidity. Instead of talking about your Family, tell us how long the inseams are and what the marierial in the garment is made of. When I go shopping I have never hugged the sales person. or have I told her ,when I left, I love her. More BS. SHOW OFF!!!!

All of you, stop blaming JT.  I'll quote someone and say don't watch.  You seem to let SK get away with same and most of the other hosts except the guys.  JB keeps saying buy 2, most of the others tell what a bargin  69$ item is that should be 200$ more when actually the item is worth 19 or 29$.  Watch or don't watch but don't  pick on 1 person when they all try to keep their jobs and I don't blame them for that.
