I think Rosina is still a little choppy in her presentation style, but overall I really like her on air personality. She does not devolve into silliness or change her personality to match a host or vendor she's paired with in any show.

I watch her with David, and she is fun & lively, but doesn't get silly (no nicknames for her, thank you very much).

I also saw her with Renee Greenstein's substitute brand rep, Ashley, a while back. Ashley asked Rosina to do the no more wiggle dance. Rosina said (with a smile), "absolutely not." It was funny; Rosina maintained her humor, but she meant it!

Yes, I like Rosina, i remember reading the harsh negative reviews about her when she first started as a host, she is one of my favorites to watch.

David calls Rosina "Ro Ro", which is pretty inoffensive I guess.

I don't know if he came up with it or it's her established QVC nickname.

I missed the Ro-Ro. Admittedly, I watch less & less ITKWD these past few months; watching about 1/3 of each show. Yes, at least that nickname is benign, and not cartoonish.

I like her too. She's come a long way.

I think Rosina has come a long way—she is typically very polished and professional in her presentations now, with plenty of her personality still incorporated. I wish David would learn how to pronounce her name properly; after all this time, I'm sure it's awkward for her to say anything, but he consistently calls her "Ro-seen-a Grass-oh" instead of "Ro-zee-na Graw-so" (and since her last name is spelled with only Os, it's not clear how the "grass" part would ever make sense). And FWIW, other hosts also call her "Ro" or "Ro-Ro," so it seems that's not just a nickname David came up with this time.

@SoCal Bred I wasn't sure about Rosina when she first started...but I do think she has come to be a very good host. She is also one of my favorites. Like any new job, it just takes time to find a comfort zone. I didn't think the harsh reviews were fair.

It took time for Risina to appeal to me as a host. She seems to have found her comfort zone and is enjoyable to watch. Like any other job you learn and gather experience, Rosina has done that.
