Am I the only one who is tired of them getting two or more spots on each show.. really how many pans can you need. I have my set of corning ware that I have had for years (and they were actually made in the USA, not China) and have never needed any more. I cook and bake all the time and my corning ware is put to use constantly . From what I am seeing on air and online, temp-tations have a lot of frivilous pieces that take up space, and are actually useless. Would rather see more of other products

some of us actually like and use "frivolous" pieces in our daily lives.....i am always looking for interesting pieces i can use from the temptations line. so, i guess "frivolous" is really a subjective term.

I do not need extra bakeware, but a lot of people do, and a lot of people like the pieces the OP thinks are "frivolous." If the items are selling -- and they appear to be selling by the millions -- why would QVC not give these items multiple airings?

I really don't care - assume as long as they're selling, it makes sense to them - and, for me, I'm happy when I don't want to buy everything put in front of me. Reduces the temptations.{#emotions_dlg.devil2}

One person's frivolous is another person's useful. One person's frivolous (with the connotation of pointless) is another person's decorative.

Ditto. I use and enjoy mine all at the time and they have made cooking easier and more fun for me.

If I see something on the program guide that I don't care about, I don't watch. I don't consider it my concern, really, what QVC deems fit to sell on TV.

There are millions of other people out there in "TV Land", who may like and want the products that OP is complaining about. Especially people who are just starting out and buying things for their kitchens. OP, just because you have plenty of linens, do you walk into a store and ask people in the linen department why they are displaying linens, since you already have plenty? I think not. Find another channel to watch during those times the Q is showing items that you are not interested in.

LOL, it doesn't really matter what's on, someone on these boards will complain they've seen enough. Then someone will turn around and ask when they're going to have it again. Smiley Wink

I assume that they're not expecting people to actually sit and watch the same thing over and over, (little do they know) Smiley Wink and are looking for new customers. Since I maybe see an hour of ITKWD I rarely see stuff over and over. That's a clue. But then what would people complain about?
