I have to ask about Terri Conn...

First let me say, I like Terri as a host. So why would she only be a host for an hour a day st 12:00 pm? I have never seen her present at another time or on one of the other channels. Curious.

Possibly that is all the time she wants to work.

That does seem odd. But if QVC sales are struggling, as some here have stated, then I would have to assume that QVC will schedule the hosts who they think will generate the most sales at any given hour.

@wakefield64 I don't know how often she's scheduled but I see Terri on Q2 sometimes.

@wakefield64 Terri usually hosts at least 3 days a week at 11:00am on QVC 2 to start LIVE programming on that channel. This week on QVC 2 @ 11am, she's hosting Mon, Tues & Wed. Next week same time, but on Wed, Thurs & Fri. Some weeks more 11am slots, some less.

Those shows, plus her 1-hr 12noon shows seems to be it for her. Perhaps she requested a light schedule to accommodate her home/work balance.

I personally find her extremely boring so perhaps she just doesn't generate enough popularity or sales to be on more often.

Maybe she is part time or has other responsibilities that make up the time behind the scenes. Edited to add: I like her style. She just presents the products, no big long story about how she bought 10, no shouting, she lets other people talk. Maybe some see that as boring... I don't at all. I like it.

Terri came from the acting world, I think she was on As the World Turns and her hubby is actor Austin Peck from Days of Our Lives and As the World Turns

Ok that does explain a lot for me. I always get a Hallmark movie vibe from her.
seriously. The looks every thing.

She has a really, really good agent to have negotiated this schedule into her contract.

She is one of my favorite hosts!! I don't think she gets enough credit. She speaks at an understandable pace, her voice is pleasant, she doesn't talk too much about family and/or nonsense, and is knowledgeable about the products. She doesn't overtalk the vendors either. I enjoy her presentations very much and wish she was on more often.

I like her too. Much prefer her over several other hosts!

@wakefield64 You can catch more of Terri Conn today on the main channel. The Program Guide says she's co-hosting Gourmet Holiday with Pat this afternoon.

I often wondered about her only working that one hour each day-nice!!! I just assumed it was all she wanted to work perhaps.

After all they make good money, so she probably makes a nice salary with just that little bit of work time! I have occasionally seen her work a little more-but not often!

THat's not how it works!!! Hosts don't dictate their availability

Not if you have a great agent/manager and media/entertainment attorney to negotiate your contract. I'm sure Terri, coming from broadcast television, avails herself of these professional services.

So funny, after writing my previous post, I was just turning the TV off at 2:00 and there was Terri presenting Gourmet Holiday with Pat. This is really the first time I have seen her after 1:00!
