Carolyn Good Job?

StopTalking — Thu, 01 Apr 2021 19:09:34 GMT

Is it just me or does Carolyn never seem prepared for her show? I watch the other hosts and they always seem well prepared. Maybe she has been there too long?

In my opinion, she gives a lot of information and details about apparel that I find helpful. I don't know how she does on garden items because I rarely watch those shows. If you are referring to her filling in on QVC2 Wednesday night, it was a different set up than she is used to, so I would give her a pass.

Carolyn is very popular and the favorite host of many. I think she does just fine. If the OP wants to make claims of lack of preparedness, she should cite specific examples instead of vague accusations.

It seems like every time shes on with Harry Slatkin its just disaster. You can tell that Harry is fed up!!!

Personally, I think she's highly overrated as a host, but she clearly has her fans. And no poster is under any obligation to justify his/her opinions.

What did Mr Slatkin do or say to express that he is"fed up" with this host?

@StopTalking I watched today's presentation with Carolyn and Harry. There was nothing in that show that even slightly resembled what you are describing. I think you simply don't like Carolyn, and to take your phrase -- yes, I definitely think it's you.

Harry was warm to Carolyn and even blew her a kiss over Skype at the end of their presentation. She gave him plenty of time to speak, in fact, Harry did 90% of the talking, while Carolyn interjected to ask those common candle questions about the wicks and the scents. Carolyn may not be the smoothest host to get in questions, but does QVC really have a host that isn't trying to get in their script anymore?

If anyone is vaguely interested (and I don't know why), the item #H230342 has the video.

I think Carolyn does a good job. As for unpreparedness....there are a few I could name as guilty but I won't.

Never prepared? Other hosts are always prepared?

Carolyn is one who is prepared most of the time.

I wholeheartedly agree that no one is under any obligation to justify their opinion (was someone asked to?), however, the other side of the coin is that when a person shares a vague opinion and is then unwilling to explain why they hold that opinion they should be prepared not to be taken too seriously.

@StopTalking

On the shows I watch Carolyn is one of the FEW that is well prepared. She gives a lot of details especially D&C clothing and gardening show products and kitchen shows........

If you want to bring attention to hosts that are actually unprepared---- I suggest you chose those that are clueless about the products and the only info they give is colors...over and over and over again...and spend most of the show joking around and talking about themselves........

I like Carolyn...now lets talk about a host thats been with QVC a long time that always has a card she reads and still makes many many mistakes.If youwatch closly you know who I am talking about.She is the only host I will not watch.If I made that many mistakes at my job,I would expect to be fired,and yet she is still there!

Regarding the fashion shows I always give a sigh of relief when Carolyn is presenting as I know I will get full details of the product regarding fit, etc. so many of the other hosts talk about everything but basic facts.

Carolyn does a great job in my opinion.
