Ali Carr is replacing Kerstin. on SMQ. . She was a good pick.

I am really enjoying Ali on this show!

Not buying, but enjoying watching the show so far. 👍 I like Ali.

I sort of like Ali but I honestly find her boring at times. I guess she's a good fit though and will keep Alberti on the calmer side?? We'll see.........I'm not a big fan of the show but I do check in at times. Hope it works out for her.

I read many of the posts, I think Ali is probably a safe choice, I think Alberti and Kirsten had chemistry, thought they might rotate Rachael, Julie and some of the newer hosts, I think it was rough because they are losing Jen Coffey and Kerstin at same time. I would think they choose by how host sales are but I have no idea. Anyway I like Ali and wish her well.. my two cents ..lol

I don't watch it, however, I'll never know why the Q began having two hosts for one show. Never has improved anything IMO.

@kindred cats Ordinarily, I would agree with you; but, with a 4 hour show having one host could get boring. I like the switch-up to keep things interesting.

@PA Mom-mom Good point, however, they could cut the show in half. They usually beleaguer the presentations as thety are.

I think Ali Carr is a good pick. I don't watch SMQ every Saturday but she's a very likable host. I used to watch her when she was on ShopHQ with her Saturday morning fashion show and she was a great host.

Ali would have been my first choice, but they don't ask me. I was delighted to see her with Alberti this morning. They are both energetic and seem very engaged in the product that they present. I like their voices and just everything about both of them . I love this program and I've learned so much. Thanks QVC for selecting Ali to be Alberti's co-host.

@PA Mom-mom Good point. Forgot it is a four hour show.

@kindred cats That's true too!

Re: SMQ

skatting44 — Sat, 04 Jan 2025 18:49:32 GMT

Hope she knows how to " Jump up " like Kirsten does and is willing to wear costumes or Alberti will just take over

Re: SMQ

DREAMON — Sat, 04 Jan 2025 19:02:22 GMT

I thought for sure it would be Rachel.

Kerstin and Alberti did have great chemistry.

MezzieStarr — Sat, 04 Jan 2025 19:34:32 GMT

Ali was listed as the host a couple of weeks ago on the program guide. QVC's worst kept secret 😂

@MT

Julia is now officially the host of "In The Kitchen" over on QVC 2 on Saturday mornings.

I don't think Rachel wanted to give up her primetime Belle by Kim Gravel show on Saturday night to do SMQ.

I like Ali. She is a very good host. I hope she brings professionalism and maturity to the show. The clownishness and camera hogging of Alberti is way too much to watch. Today, he had on his ballet tights on!

@skatting44 Ali actually did a pretty impressive jump this morning! Watched the start of the show and then turned it off. Wishing her the best.

Absolutely. I tuned in briefly to see what the chatter was about but true to form, after the Q spent over twenty minutes with the host and guest pontificating about the $700 treadmill up for grabs, (with them walkikng on it most of the time, I would add...) I remembered why I pretty much stopped watching QVC.
