Her voice has always grated on my nerves. I quit watching because Slinky is just a cheap version of the original CitiKnits.

I used to love both the Sinky and Carolyn Strauss fashions; have a skirt from Carolynthat is 10 years old and I still love it. However, the quality of the material of both these lines has gotten worse and worse. Seldom buy anything from either any more; therefore am able to get a pass on the voice.

Where are you finding anything by Carolyn Strauss? She's been gone from HSN forever, and ebay possibilities are very slim.

Seriously--where can I buy some more items by CS?

That nasally, irritating voice always drove me crazy......but I still bought a ton of Slinky fashions back in the old days. That fabric, assuming it's the same, isn't my style anymore.

I thought this was going to be a fun thread about the toy.

Get your flu shot...because I didn't.

She annoys me to no end. I bought Slinky once & it was a cheap imitation of the original CitiKnits. Returned it.

Her FIL owns the company. She has the worst voice in TV. She had to have been a relative to have gotten the job.
