Please Don't Interrupt Valerie

10000thnickname — Sun, 14 Jul 2019 11:36:51 GMT

I can't watch Rachel because she doesn't let Valerie speak. She keeps interrupting and talking over Valerie. I'd like to watch the Valerie presentation that's on the air now.
But I just want to hear Valerie talk....please, can't someone recommend that Rachel not talk non-stop and not interrupt Valerie.
I can tell Valerie gets upset.

I'm sure Rachel is a nice person. But I can't watch this!

Rachel is not my favorite pairing with Valerie, by far, but I think you are imposing your own “upset” onto Valerie. Valerie has too much grace and charm and experience to ever show that she’s upset. They have a different temperament as a team, but Valerie does not seem upset at all.

I wish Rachel would calm down and ditch the cartoon noises, she is just a different personality for these Valerie decor shows.

I noticed Valerie sitting staring ahead while Rachel interrupted her. That's why I thought she was bothered. I am sure it passed.
Regardless, I know this much...Valerie KNOWS decorating and knows her products.
Therefore, she is the person who should be talking.

I really hate when the hosts interrupts the vendor @10000thnickname . I'd so rather hear about the product than whatever the host has to say about how many left, etc.

Oh, me too. I guess I was raised to be respectful and it's clear that Valerie was also raised to be respectful. She is very patient and soft-spoken. I like that.

This show is truly unwatchable.

It should have been a wonderful show to pick up many items. Why oh why do they ever pair her with Valerie??! She pounces on every word, and Valerie’s descriptions and tips are cut off and forever lost.

I wanted to watch too.

After a few minutes, I couldn't because Valerie has such an easy to listen to voice and I find Rachel's to be so loud and strident. I have heard her with a normal softer voice but I guess the loud shouting does not bother the ones monitoring presentations.

And while Valerie was beginning to talk about the clips for the tree, Rachel was yelling how much, how many left, let me do colors! So disappointing not to even want to listen anymore.

I used to watch all of Valerie's shows but I usually don't or only for a few minutes. Then I have to turn it off.

It is not just Rachel who interrupts and talks about numbers, and cost, and easy pay and the stupid credit card, everything under the sun I don't care about. It is how the "hosts" have been encouraged to yell and create what I guess they think is excitement. It only means more and more times not watching.

And for me as a customer, (now pretty much former customer), if I can't watch and look forward and be excited about watching, I am not going to buy anything.

I can go to the video, but just lose any enthusiasm I might have had.

@PartDeuxI agree 110%. I absolutely cannot watch Rachael anyway. I had Valerie's show on while getting dressed this morning. Figured I could put up w/Rachel because I wanted to see Valerie.....wrong! I just kept thinking......Rachel, be quiet!! I turned it off and checked online.

I don’t mind Rachel. The website not showing photos of the various product options coupled with the fact that we’re only getting 2-3 easy pays on such inflated prices during such a big event is a big turn off for me. Philosophy gets the red carpet, and CIJ is the red headed step child. I usually break the bank during CIJ, but haven’t made one purchase this weekend. You failed, QVC.

@Caaareful Shopper You said it very well.......She pounces on every word, like Valerie doesn't know anything and she has to repeat it. She knows nothing herself, just what she hears and then repeats it. She does this w/all the vendors. She is so loud and needs to be the center of attention........unwatchable!

Re: Please Don't Interrupt Valerie

10000thnickname — Sun, 14 Jul 2019 13:01:52 GMT

Yes, me too.

Why, QVC, why? Management must be aware that customers LOVE Valerie and respect her talent and taste. The network promotes Valerie as the expert! So....let her talk, please.

Pair Valerie with Mary Beth Roe. She is a listener. Or Dan...he listens too.

Love watching Valerie's shows but the Sunday a.m. show was awful because Rachel would not stop talking. So rude!

ITA! I couldn't watch either. I also cant watch Rick D. It has been along time since I have watched him and now I know why. He shouts at you, he tells the vendor to go over the colors of the TSV and then interrupts her. It was a train wreck.

Could it be something in the water? Or something in the air that some of them have become so loud and frantic?

@shaggygirl I think Rick must have very good sales numbers, because every time I see him, his attitude seems to be, “Go ahead and fire me. I dare you.”

I AGREE REGARDING HER VOICE TONE. TO ME ITS AN OBNOXIOUS TONE,LOUD AND NASALLY. SHE COULD TONE IT DONE AS WELL. I FIND HER TO BE VERY OVERBEARING WITH THE VENDORS. SHE NEEDS TO JUST CALM DOWN AND FEW NOTCHES.
