I am so impressed with Sam, the new host. She is a delight. Informed, pleasant, doesn't tell stupid stories and can't beat the accent. Some of the veterans could learn from her. I hope she stays for a long time.

Just wait a while. After she's been there long enough upper management will start in on her. Maybe we'll be lucky. They haven't changed Terri Conn yet.

I agree. Sam is lovely, well-prepared, and a delight to watch. She lets the vendor speak, and gives all the pertinent information on the items she is selling. In addition, she has a great sense of humor. Well-done, Sam.

She was prepared for this. She was on QVC UK.

If she was at QVC UK, they do a better job hiring and training than they do here.

A host that doesn't interrupt and doesn't tell stories sounds wonderful! Yay!

I don't know who she is. She's not on the host page.

Let's hope it lasts. Some hosts were good in the beginning but in their quest for higher sales they started acting the fool.

@rms1954 Sams new to me also so I just checked the host pages and she's listed about 3/4 down in the 's's

Agreed. She seems more like a relaxed, professional HSN host than a silly, hyper QVC one. I hope she stays.

She also was a good host several years ago on ShopHQ

Although I seldom watch anything on QVC, I enjoyed an entire hour of Sam and her calm selling routine with her lovely feminine voice. She's a delight to listen to and learn from since she willingly provides ALL the information necessary for the product! She's a dynamo with a calm demeamor and a calming voice. I'll be watching a lot of Sam's programs this winter and beyond.

She so unique in the QVC choice of loud voices, dramatic behaviors, crazy clothing, flipping and playing with long hair with detracts from the products, and constant complaints. Haven't seen any of those annoying habits with Sam (which make a couple of hosts absolutely unwatchable). She's confortable with herself and in front of the camera!

How nice for a change. Hope she flies high above the nonsense and noise at QVC.

@JYWilliams Thank you! I thought I had seen her before but didn't know where.

I have noticed this new host Sam on Q2 since last week while channel surfing, she is pleasant to watch. I wish her all the best and luck.

The best "real" British accent on QVC since Anthony Heywood's very short lived tenure:
