But my point is.....why is it just Susan Graver that goes on as usual?  I think today is a 24 hour gardening day with the exception of SG at her usual Thursday noon spot?  To me it is just not right....she is no more special than any other vendor!  I totally agree with you on their strange programming....and their constant repeated programming of IT  and Josie and Dyson (now it's hair dryers) and mattresses, of all brands.  To me, the way they set up their programming just pushes me further away........

The Susan Graver clothing line is owned by QVC. It's just one of QVC's private label clothes lines. For as big as QVC is, they show very little variety of vendors. I will bet that the top 5 vendors contribute a lot more to the bottom line than every other vendor combined.

 

She's not my cup of tea so I just pass the shows on by (along with Dyson, Vitamix, computers, beds, gardening, and now quite a bit of IT Cosmetics, Philosophy, and Josie Maran). I am not a fan of any of these brands except the IT Cosmetics original CC cream but even then I do not want to watch the presentations anymore!

I understand your dilemma but if you are really agitated, contact QVC's parent company, or QVC Inc. and express your views.  I have sent numerous emails, and have received responses via actual telephone calls.  No company exec reads these threads.   @grooms

Re: WHO OWNS QVC?

[ Edited ]

I don't think QVC "owns" Susan Graver.  She's exclusive to QVC, but from what I find online, she still owns her trademark.

 

I would assume that SG's contract with QVC specifies the amount of air time, number of shows, number of products, number of TSVs, etc.

 

She's been on Thursday morning for years.

I guess the best thing to do if you don't like something is to contact the company.  Who knows - maybe they will actually listen and take action.

All of the products that were mention,they are there ALL the time,because they bring in the money period.

I'm pretty sure last Thursday was a 21 hour gardening event, not 24 hours.  That still left time for Susan.  Smiley Happy
