I noticed there are 5 new QVC hosts.

So who did they let go? Or did they?

I do know that Jacque Gonzales left. Albany Irvin left, but that was a while ago. Then there is Ms. Shawn who is gone more often than she is there. I have yet to see any of the new show hosts. I guess I just happen to tune in when they are not on. Oh, and while Lisa came back for a short time, she also left. I can't think of any more as I don't watch as much as I used to.

I think they are hiring the new hosts to help with the expansion ( Q2 and Beauty Channel) that QVC has made...

I have seen all 5 new hosts sofar (up alot during night hours) ...3 seem ok...2 not so much......none seem to strike

me immediatly as great such as Katie M. or Mary starting as a hosts......................will see how things go in the future..............................................

Just heard Courtney ( who i was never the biggest fan of but who has been alot on Q2 and has grown on me.....)

say to Angel (Quacker) that she won't be with her anymore because she was being sent to the Beauty Channel.................not sure if that is temporary or more of a permanent thing...............They should send Sandra and Jennifer to the Beauty Channel as you can tell they love to work those beauty shows......

Someone posted Alberti is coming back to regular Qvc next month. I liked the new host I saw do one of the late night Joan Rivers shows that had lots of clearance shirts in the show (seersuckers and denim boyfriend shirts) she did really well, no interruptions or forced excitement. Not sure of her name, but see her on at night & she's really good.

Plus someone to cover (help) with vacations, sickness, emergencies. They have to fall back on someone.

Shawn is due to be back in September from maternity leave. Kathy(?) was on this morning with Nacy during a gardening show, and she did really good. It was the first time I had watched her.

In total agreement, like to know where the hosts are going. I also thought maybe they are headed to HSN, which QVC just acquired.

I actually wondered about host swapping too. Kerstin briefly mentioned that she would be happy to go to Florida if need be. She said before that she loved the hot weather in California, and being in Tampa right on the water would be a dream, I think, for her. I think she would have a blast there.

I think Geoff, of HSN, would do great on QVC. He has a Dave James-esc look to me, and similar calm, friendly demeanor. Plus, being from Australia, I think his family would love the Pennsylvania weather.

@Ane1Care Sounds like a very nice host swap indeed!

I doubt they are going to be switching hosts back and forth between HSN and QVC. I know there will be a lot of changes, that is inevitable but I still think they will remain 2 separate running stations as far as hosts, etc.

I think you're right @Lipstickdiva. But one can dream.....

I really liked Jacque Gonzalez. Also MaryBeth and Antonella. The rest are annoying. I have shopped at QVC for 30 yrs. and feel they are going down hill.

COULD REPLACE AMY STRAN, SANDRA BENNETT, AND JENNIFER COFFEY. THESE HOSTS ARE ALL ABOUT THEMSELVES. AS SOON AS AMY STRAN START ROLLING OUT THE CLOTHING CART, I QUIT WATCHING. QUITE A FEW HOST AND PRODUCT REPS ARE WEARING CLOTHES THAT ARE A SIZE TOO SMALL AND TOO LOW CUT. JUST VENTING....

I wish they would send Kersten somewhere, qvc2 or beauty or Florida.Anywhere. As soon as I see her I flip the chanal.

If you are talking about Shawn Kellinger they announced some weeks ago that she adopted a baby boy and they showed a quick picture of her and the baby and they said she would be out for awhile to have some time with her new baby boy that she and her husband adopted. They said what they named him but I forgot what it was. It was a cute name I thought but not your everyday name.

I read the article/interviews with the new hosts and it appears that some were hired for specific areas of sales (beauty; fashion and jewelry) while others will be selling everything. The women who are on Beauty IQ "fit" there, if that makes sense. I can't see some fo the women on the original Q channel being all that great at selling skincare and makeup only. I don't know.... everyone having their own niche sounds like a smart idea to me.

So far, we are not impressed with the new hosts. They remind us of some of the hosts on other shopping networks....just not the same. We don't watch the other shopping networks, in large part because the hosts grate on us. Hoping they will improve and become more a part of the QVC style.

One of them has a really grating voice - not sure which one she was.
