I read your post, as was looking online to see if it was just me, or if anyone else online thought that Wendy at JTV was the most annoying host EVER! Surprised to find your comments here, but had to reply. NOT ONLY is she annoying & grating-I only watch her shows to see jewelry styles-and I now watch without sound. Why? Her voice is NOT ONLY NASAL, but she often does this sound I can't put into words-maybe like a mouse being strangled- some kind of wierd sound, never heard anyone even with a valid speech defect make the sound she makes & she speaks ridiculously fast (and I am FAST) THAT i CAN'T UNDERSTAND A WORD, AS SHE SPEAKS WITHOUT PUNCTUATION OR PAUSES in a monotone & nasal voice, no less.. She sounds like she is on speed or a drug that makes her speak that way, or perhaps she has a microphone in her ear & she has to repeat what the speaker says. Never heard anything like it. It blows my mind that anyone can listen to her, let alone listen to her in her personal life. She is HORRENDOUS as ahostess---& beyond bizarre in her speech pattern. I have a deviated septum in my nose, & don't sound nasal, so don't know what her issue is, but she should go to a speech coach, in a hurry.. I was in the entertainment industry for decades, & there is not one agent I ever met who would ever have referred her for an INTERVIEW for an on air show hostess., not even on the worst rated programs.. How she was hired & MAINTAINS the position is beyond me. In addition,there is one woman who is a hostess after l2 (night) who also sounds bonkers- don't know her name--she speaks a mile a minute, also without any punctuation or inflections that are appropriate, but says nothing much. I couldn't believe it when I heard her speak-fortunately, I don't often watch at that hour. As far as girlfriends night, with the brunette and blonde-they are both fine, on their own. When they do their folksy, aw shucks Friday night deal girls party, I could barf. They sound like two immature, mean girls in high school, the unpopular ones, not the cool ones-they blather & babble about zero -.ZERO.& crack themselves up. Fine, if off air, but ON AIR? tHEY apparently have a following of some sort,but it must be with people who act like they do in real life....yuck-o. When they do individually host shows, they each seem to have a knowledge of their product,but TOGETHER THEY ARE A NIGHTMARE...unless you have girlfriends like them, which I never would..so ORDINARY, DULL, GOSSIPY, GABBY, & TOTALLY UNSOPHISTICATED. The real ? here is what is wrong with the HR department at that company? Or is there a reason that they have hired a list of unpalatable hosts? When they realize that people are turning off the sound, and even not ordering as the hosts make the company look less than professional, don't they re-evaluate? I see things I might purchase there on occasion, but prefer HSN, QVC, EBAY, AMAZON, as don't have to endure screechy, babbling, nasal voices...I just pick,pay, & that's it. I am glad you posted as I turned on the tv now, and there was Wendy again--I turned off the sound-I've solved my problem, as only watch the shows to see gems & designs-no matter how good the prices "seem" to be, I would never ever order from that company...How can they read your comments & mine, and not do something about it? I only wish the National Enquirer deemed the story worthy enough to investigate,because somewhere there is something rotten there, what I don't know, but it's certainly not professional business as I know it. ANYONE could sell as a host/hostess on that show without sounding lame. There is one man who sells who LOVES everything. He is a joke. AT first thought he was sincere & just sort of a bumpkin,which was fine, but after watching him a few times, realized that he shows NO DISCRIMINATION whatsoever with his merchandise-it is all the only time you will be able to buy it, he has never seen it before, it is quality that is beyond compare, etc....it'sa bad joke and now can't watch him either, as realize his insincerity.I wish this show would go off air and be replaced by another show doing the same with more polish,finesse, professionalism, and non-annoying hosts. SO YOU ARE NOT ALONE...AND HOPE YOU READ THIS blurb.
