I don't know what is going on with her. She was one of the hosts I enjoyed watching. The past few months she does seem very hyper and agitated.

I actually thought she wasn't as bad on the Lock-n-Lock show. I wish that vendor would stop saying, OMG (all the words)...

I do think QVC must tell some of these hosts to talk, talk, talk because Rachel B. has surely changed from the beginning. She never stops. Sandra also has changed. It must be encouraged. It is annoying to the viewers. Let the vendors talk about the product more. That is why they are there.

UNWATCHBLE - immediate change of channel when she's presenting.

I think Janine should present by herself. She doesn't need Sandra's constant interruptions.

I had to turn her off also. But, I had to change the channel on David too. At the end of the show about the last 15 min. he got hyper too.

Sandra seems to be that way all the time. She and the LL lady kept talking over each other. These program hosts are really getting overbearing for me. I don't watch very much anymore.

I could never watch her presentations. And those silly bangs that she hides behind are ridiculous. Her constant use of "Oh My Gosh this is so cool. Like let me show the colors again.

I normally try not to comment on any host negatively (I know they're just doing their jobs). But I caught a short bit of Sandra on with a vendor selling salmon?

I have to admit I couldn't believe how fast she was talking and how she was talking over the vendor.

The vendor was trying to explain a recipe and Sandra just interrupted, then shoved a packet of seasoning into the shot in front of the dish. The vendor was trying to take a hot dish out of the oven and I just hoped there wouldn't be an accident.

It was as if Sandra was hyper. And, yes, I switched off. If QVC producers are telling the hosts to act like this then, yes, they need to rethink the strategy. I don't need to feel anxious while watching something like that.

But maybe it's just me!

It’s not just You… @Venezia or @Gaga or @Kitty Galore or Luvmybeetle or @Many Others…

I have to turn her off too. I had never thought about it until it was mentioned here a couple times that she makes me almost anxious to watch. instead of calm like I want to be when I’m shopping.

Can you imagine walking into a store, having a sales associate greet you, ask you what you’re looking for, NOT WAIT for an answer and start showing you and telling you about a BUNCH OF STUFF while not caring enough to listen to YOU!!! 🥴

That’s the VIBE I’m getting from Sandra. 😂😂😂

And when you get two hosts together, the fast talking and trying to talk over the vendor and the second host. Some of the hosts do it, yet SOME of them, when hosting alone, don't do it.

No one seems to talk over Martha! 😉.

The rapid fire is a channel changer for me. I know, it's sales, sales, sales.

I don't watch her either--she just gets louder and louder and thats all you hear---not a fan.

@smb3

I know what your saying about these two hosts changing from when they first began. Sandra used to be one of my favorites. She was soft spoken and polite. I don't know what the Q does to them but they ruined Rachel and Sandra. They are both now unwatchable

Re: Lock n lock & Sandra B

Venezia — Mon, 21 Oct 2024 14:57:18 GMT

@xryretriever - I had the same thought about Sandra. I remember when she first started how calm she was, how good she was at letting the vendor talk about the product. She was one of my favorite hosts.

It's a shame that something has changed and a lot of the "newer" hosts seem to be super-excited all the time. I do most of my shopping online; just check out the videos for anything I'm interested in.

I don't watch the Q very much so I don't know about Sandra. I do watch Jayne Brown's presentations. It's always calm, informative and a little humor thrown in. She is absolutely the best on QVC. I wish other hosts would watch Jayne work and hopefully take note.

I know.....dream on.

She may be a very nice person, but I can't watch her at all. She is always shouting, talking very fast and interrupts everyone.

Wow I thought it was me! I had to turn it off. THe L&L lady talks fast and Sandra kept talking over her and it made me so nervous I had to shut it off. It seemed by the expression that Sandra was irritated that the L&L lady was talking and taking up her time or something. Quite awful.
And yes, Sandra used to be soft-spoken and polite. Now she's turned into Rachael on steroids. There must be a reason for it. I wonder if they are turning the heat up on them to be pushier. Something has really changed.
I only know for a fact when I see Sandra or Rachael, I turn the channel. That is only the case with 4 hosts.
I actually enjoy QVC2 as they hosts seem calmer and not as slef-serving on there. I'm not sure why.
Sigh.

I totally agree with many of these comments, The hosts need to STOP TALKING and let the person representing the brand talk. So tired of the talking over each other, I'm sure the representatives get upset too. Most times I can't even listen

@smb3 I agree. Rachel is loud and her hard sell is so annoying She never used to be that way when she started, sane with Sandra B
