MARY BETH AND FRIENDS?

Shanus — Thu, 20 Mar 2025 11:45:26 GMT

I recorded this show thinking it was her celebration show, but just the same old sales items.....but a bottle of chanpagne and glasses were on a table.

Did I miss the celebration or was that it?

I think that's how those"celebrations" are done. I remember many years ago when Kathy Levine left it was the same thing, sell, sell, sell. That's their business.

They are dragging this whole thing out thru this week---haven't watched --just not interested, but am sure QVC saw the potential for sell, sell , sell and ran with it. I do like MBR--and wish her the best---but every life change seems to be about the almighty $$$. I bet deep down inside, she wishes she could just work her last day and leave quietly.

I'm wondering if on her final show Friday the 21st if they will have an audience of her family, friends and co workers.

Every final show or celebration I have watched, the host are doing their job presenting products.

@m0rgan Thanks. Tomorrow nite! I'll record that. When it said "and friends" I was tricked into thinking that was the goodbye show.

My guide says MY TIME WITH MARY BETH. Is that it?

Just squeezing the most out of Mary Beth's sales ability before she leaves. Does not draw me in, the same tactic for Jennifer's engagement & marriage . Not sure if they had the same for Vanessa when she was pregnant

@Estellee

Just read an article where she stated she wants favorite vendors & products on Friday.

She did mention no studio audience because having viewers would be too emotional for her.

Cant emember if she mentioned family being present.

Wonder if QVC still has the same red cape they draped over Lisa Robertson during her lost show.

So ridiculous, lol.

I do like MBR, but this is the longest goodbye ever.

Give her a Diamonique gold watch and send her on her way.

I agree that it's become just a tad too much

Hey, they need to milk every last sale out of this that they can. Times are tough for the Q.

Mary Beth is a team player to the end.

Besides, this is much more palatable than the whole "50 and Fabulous" BS.

@geezerette She was a dedicated employee, all the hosts she trained learned from the best.

Talk about people moving for their jobs, MBR must have moved to PA from Minn for this job.

But did I read here she’s coming back to train New hires part time? 🥴

I wonder if someone else was up for the job but maybe didn’t like the money being offered and/or changed their plans suddenly on the Q. 🥴

That wouldn’t make Mary Beth too happy, since she’s most definitely a dedicated employee. 💕

@RescueLover I read that comment somewhere on the boards in the past few days. I havn't read MB confirming it. Wishful thinking, maybe

I like MBR but I have to admit this Retirement is like the movie Groundhog Day.
