Next Saturday brings us YET another Serta day... and, are you ready, next Sunday presents us with the Q's annual TSV nod to Duraflame heaters! Oh boy, can you stand the excitement?!! And THOSE are just the, uh, highlights...

I really Think QVC has cut sweet heart deals with these vendors like WEN, Serta and Orthoheel that appear again and again. We already know they own a stake in some of these companies and thus they have reason to air them so frequently. I'd rather walk around kohls or Target and see a variety of manufacturers them just one product that's aired for hours. QVC.com has many products and a great variety but they air the same things again and again in TV. I'm sure the hosts are just as tired as the viewers. Long gone are the days I would leave QVC on as "background" for hours on end and would perk up when interesting products were aired. I'm down to two or three shows that I enjoy, At Home with Jill and Dennis Basso being the only " appointment TV" that I make. many of us old timers remember the 90s when Kathy Levine was there and it was a fun shopping atmosphere. I believe Barry Diller owned the channel back them and his vision of Home shopping was very different than whoever is running the ship today.

I no longer watch on weekends - I just gave up. Not only are weekends dominated by infomercial material, but it is the same stuff, over & over again.

It really is. More times than not, they're positively awful and completely unwatchable. I never turned it on at all this weekend. Never even considered it.

Why can't our complaints go to the Suggestion Box for starters, but more importantly, why can't we do SOMETHING, to bring this to the attention of TPTB, or perhaps the CEO ? We aren't ever going to get any changes if we don't make our grief well known !

Shake we compose a "community" letter to Mike George, and let one person be responsible for typing and mailing it or what ? Does anyone have any reasonable and valid ideas ????

I fear things are only going to continue the same or even get worse !!

Go to the email section at bottom of page & send a complaint. It doesn't do any good, but posting here doesn't either. I have sent many complaints there, with no results. I can not post on QVC Facebook pg, or I would take it there. It would certainly be seen there, but it doesn't let me post there.

And it's not just boring on weekends anymore... It's almost unwatchable all the time.

Luckily, our weather last weekend was phenomenal. I didn't care what was on tv, I wasn't spending my time indoors watching anyhow.

However, this weekend the weather is going to by abysmal. Luckily again, I'm a football fan so that occupies my time. And TCM has had some good old movies on.

Of course I could always give my house a good cleaning.

Oh, there's always plenty to do... It's just a shame this resource has virtually stopped being, well, a resource...
