Ty & Tina pre-recorded sales of products

I hope this is not a sign of things to come. First I noticed Ty in a pre-recorded sales pitch of something not remotely similar to the product on the “live” TV show. The breaks to promote upcoming shows or new product line are a little annoying but they’re very brief. We’re used to those. Now I’m seeing not only Ty but Tina doing a pre-recorded hard sale and the frequency is increasing.

I watch HSN on TV solely to see items presented “live”. It’s really irritating to have this bright, high-def close up of Tina or Ty doing a hard sale of something entirely different from TV live presentation. And I don’t understand why HSN TV management thinks viewers watching a presentation of kitchen items want to see Tina in bright pink lip stick doing a fast hard sale on an electronics item.
