I am truly amazed that many Q customers are so concerned about a host being male or female, coming or going or wait, bring them back.
Doesn't anyone worry about the quality of the product they sell? How about how much that product costs? What about the warranty or even how long the product lasts?
I don't watch the Q for entertainment, I could care less who presents the product, I worry about spending my hard earned cash on something that is of quality, priced competitively and overall my satisfaction.
I just don't get it, I thought the Q was a shopping channel for which they want us to buy, buy, buy. Does anyone think a host makes that much of difference?

Yes I do...just like it makes a difference to some negatively if they do not care for the host or their style.

It's a shopping channel. They have to have decent hosts.
You say you don't care who you watch because it's the product that interests you, but many don't feel that way, and won't watch a host they don't like, so they will never see the product.
A vicious circle, I guess.

If I find a host annoying, just like with any other type of programming, I tune out.
So, I think it is overall important.

My adult daughters watch QVC off and on. They work full time, and have kids. They mainly watch during the Holidays to get their shopping in. They could care less who the Host is. They look to buy, that's all. I quit watching QVC 10 years ago because of yapping Hosts and even worse vendors. It did make a difference to me. I shop in peace online. I do not have the patience to watch 20 minutes on one product. Even when I turned a program on to see them explain it, because I was seriously interested, they didn't explain it well enough. Too much socialization for me.
My personal opinion is if you do not watch QVC for entertainment , you won't care. I know when I was a QVC junkie, oh my. I watched 24/7 and didn't always NEED to buy things. I just bought them because I saw and liked the item. But Hosts did matter. I noticed if they yapped too much non stop, I switched channels. It made me nervous.
I think many people outside these forums, just watch to buy a certain product. They don't let the host bug them, they listen and buy.
I think many of us have been with QVC a long time, so we have got know hosts, but the average person really doesn't.

Many viewers are lonely, on the computer all day and consider a host a friend. They don't care about the product.
