Isaac and Jennifer

Veridoc — Sun, 02 Jun 2019 15:57:29 GMT

This may have been asked before and I just overlooked it. Does anyone know if Isaac Mizrahi specifically asked that Jennifer be the only one to host with him? I like a lot of his pieces and try to stay with his shows when he is on but I have a hard time with her antics and end up changing channel and go online to look. I think Courtney Khondabi would be a good match with him.

I’ll watch him with anybody but Shawn.

I love Jennifer. She is probably the best prepared host of all. I think she works well with Isaac and other guests. Just my humble opinion!

@Veridoc I don't engage in conversation regarding hosts. I just thought I would present a new perspective and offers insight into how I use small life irritations to grow and learn about myself.

If a TV host was giving me such a knee-jerk reaction that I can't watch or just chose to turn the channel without grinding my teeth....then there is an indication that there is some emotion there that I need to work on. I would do some meditation and reflect if there is a quality about that host that I recognize in myself/or another person that is irritating me. I would use that to work on myself and accept who I am or the other person and the possibility of change. After some thoughtful and reflective self work, I would intentionally watch the program to see if I can watch or chose to change the channel without registering the emotion. It would be an indication of growth and acceptance.

Might be an insightful and learning experience.

@stellabystarlight I think Jennifer is terrific! I've never seen one of her shows that I did not enjoy. She always, always, comes prepared and shows up enthused about her shows.

Or it could be way too much time spent on a shopping channel host.

I like Jennifer as well. I did not see her with Isaac but always enjoy any show in which she is the host.

@QVCkitty1 Love this...you made me laugh! The bottom line is I would not be concentrating on the host, but on becoming a better person capable of changing myself and working on acceptance. But I love your funny!

I prefer IM with anyone other than JC or SK. Never watch when he's on with either....no matter what that might say about me.

Glad you liked it, myself if the host annoys me, I don’t watch. If I want to shop, I use the website. It’s just like in real life , not everyone would be invited into your home. However, acceptance is a worthy goal. 🌺

This just goes to show that QVC has its work cut out for them when it comes to trying to please all the viewers. I actually like the pairing of Isaac and Jennifer.

Interesting, because I was thinking about Jennifer and Isaac recently, too.

To answer your question, maybe designers do ask to work with certain hosts and vice-versa, but it doesn't appear to me QVC schedules them that way. I remember years ago HSN always paired Colleen Lopez with Joan Rivers. There was some sort of jealousy going on between the hosts who wanted their turn. So, Colleen was no longer paired with Joan, but she was by far the most compatible with Joan. I do think QVC used to pair compatible hosts with designers, but not as much more recently. And it shows.

I have seen Isaac with most of the other hosts, but IMO, he looks more comfortable with Shawn and Jennifer, Shawn more so, than any of the other hosts.

My observation doesn't address whether I prefer the combinations, just that I think they are more compatible compared to other hosts.

@Veridoc: I doubt any of us would know if Isaac requests a specific host. But, to your point about other hosts, I've seen Isaac work with any of the hosts on a regular basis (Leah, Jayne, Jane, Sandra, Amy, Shawn of course) and whoever happens to be scheduled when he is on the air.

Holy cow! Some of you are really coming down hard on @phoenixbrd for expressing her opinion. I, too, think we should all look within ourselves to see our own flaws, rather than judge others for theirs. We all have flaws; none of us is perfect!

@Veridoc, Jennifer isn’t the only one who hosts with him.

I looked at the online program guide, and the scheduled Isaac Mizrahi shows are hosted by a variety of people.😊

Just looking at next week, I see Courtney Webb, Shawn Killinger, Katrina Szish, Jane Treacy, Amy Stran, and only one show with Jennifer Coffey.

If you prefer a different Q host, you might want to preview the schedule using the the program guide to look for their names.

Here's the weekly guide for 6/3 to 6/9:

I think you all have been hitting the Wen a little too much. Jennifer has nothing over SK when it comes anything close to antics.

I don't hang on QVC 24/7. Just seemed like when I did have an opportunity to watch him she was the host. I don't grind my teeth while changing the channel. I don't need any yoga, meditation or therapy to find duck lip squinty eye faces or leg splits while talking tolerable. I was just asking a question. I appreciate your opinion and respect your right to express it.

@Foxxee

Any chance you mean Suzanne Somers? Or/Sommers/Summers/however she spells it. Just asking as I don't recall Joan ever being on HSN but do recall Suzanne & Colleen together a lot.
