  • I'm having such a hard time watching QVC and HSN. Last night every time I turned on QVC CCB was on, I think it was almost 4 hrs ...what's up with that ? They seem to show the same products over and over again, and if I turn on HSN it's always G by Giuliana or Diane Gilman or HP computers. I don't buy many products from either show anymore due to the repetition of their programming. In the long run I spend less money which is a good thing.

This is part of the reason they are seeing a decline in sales, and new customers, also seeing old customers leaving. It is the same old products repeatedly.

Um....yes, she was on a lot. Cause her item was the TSV. I happen to think she's sweet and classy, unlike some. So, if you don't like her, there are plenty of other channels to choose from.

I too find the programming sometimes a bit too much.  We all have different line ups we enjoy but I agree the programming (especially on the Q) has been boring as all heck.   

I know CCB had the TSV yesterday but she did seem to be on alot and it even cut into Isaac's show in the afternoon.    I know we have all been lectured in "changing the channel"  but it does seem worse than ever, especially having those gourmet food shows on ad nauseum.  (JMO)

If it's not the same product over an over,it's the pricy products.Anything that costs more.Been customer over 20 some years,hardly watch anymore,besides that watching some of the host deliver,it's a turn off.

There are hundreds of items on the website that never get an airing.  Why not?  And I cannot understand who the target audience is for QVC. Those $100 embroidered shorts?? Who does that appeal to?  QVC gets less interesting by the day.

 

At least HSN, which I much prefer, has decent sales.

I didn't say I didn't like her, I said I didn't like the repetition of the programming, which is why I turned it off, but thanks for your insight.

This is what happens when a poster has no intention of responding to the post. They have a dialog in their own head. It is called confirmation bias. The recipient hears only what supports their agenda, and they disregard the rest.

 

I imagine you understand you can watch other programs. You don’t need anyone to tell you that. @Grnthumb
