Q Talk

Then after 6 months of ghastly programming, all evidence of the holiday will be stripped away by the 26th of December.

Tacky and ignorant.

Love this. Gave me my first good laugh of the day. The holiday ham becoming jerky in the closet was the part that made me laugh til I cried. Thank you

I get sooo sick of it early, but the same stuff year after year??? It's simple I change the channel.

I guess we are stuck with it! But we can't really by true gifts unless they are Christmas items; if we want the priveledge of a return!
It reminds me of one of my neighbors who puts up their outdoor Christmas decorations while everyone else has mums, pumpkins and Indian corn up! Oh....and they play Christmas music, outside, on a very loud speaker!!!

Why...do you think it's going to go away, there won't be enough for everyone, there's a shortage of programming???

Even when I watched QVC more often, the whole business of starting Christmas 6 months early was a real turnoff. I guess they have nothing better to sell, so they focus on Christmas. Way to keep me away, QVC. Han and Evine have plenty of more interesting stuff to look at and buy. QVC reminds me of the Christmas Store that I think Sears had going most of the year? It's out of business now I think.

 I see LOTS of people here hate Christmas.  I feel like they are always showing overpriced food, cosmetics and other high-end things like handbags.  ALL the time ALL year.

Christmas is a special and happy time for lots of people.  Yes, you need to get ready for it if you really go all out. . . and people love and treasure things others call junk.  So, look away.  Nobody is forcing you to watch it.

In today's world, with the awful things on tv 24/7, a ceramic Santa is not the worst thing  you could come across flipping channels.

It is getting ridiculous. Christmas in July is such a blatant marketing ploy. We should not have Christmas shopping pushed down our throats 6 months in advance. I, for one, turn it off every time it comes on.

According to the most recent information I've read, YES, CIJ is here to stay annually and anything after that if desired by the Q !

Many retailers are actually thinking of carrying Christmas items to some degree all year long now due to economy and the desire to "one up" the next vendor in sales.

Totally agree.  Soon it will be Christmas shows and trees on the set all year long. Maybe a 24/7 Christmas Q channel if it brings in that much money.
