What will the Joan Rivers program be like without her?

toddysmojm — Sun, 12 Oct 2014 06:35:50 GMT

I am certainly tuning in on Monday at 10. I am particularly interested in the items I know Joan had a hand in so I am anxious to buy them. I don't know if I will continue to be interested but at least for the time being we know she chose all these things. I can just imagine her voice and what she would say. I am so hoping that her long velvety robes are one of the featured items. They are the best. I give them out as gifts every Christmas. Was still hoping for a purple one. We love you, Joan and we will be watching because of that. Joan forever!!!

Good question. I admit to watching a few of the older videos of products with her, after her death, and it makes you miss her.

I only watched her on Fashion Police, and I won't be anymore. She cannot be replaced.

For me, it will not be the same. I watched her because I liked her and sometimes some of her items. She is what made me want to watch,

Sad, it will never be the same again. Joan WAS the show.

It will be very sad. I would think they will have clips, but I'm not sure I will watch. I'll go on line and see what was offered.

There have been times that David has participated in an overnight show or two without Joan. I suspect that if the show wasn't going to have a memorial kind of tone, it would feel like any other show that David conducted in Joan's absence. In that case it would take several shows to sink in that Joan isn't going to be there any more.

David and Jill will likely be walking down memory lane and sharing stories, so I think it will be more difficult because that will really drive home that Joan is gone.

Moving forward, the shows won't be the same for me without Joan. I purchased her jewelry more than anything and liked hearing her described it.

For the millions of fans out there, I hope that they continue Great Hair Day.

Sad. Joan made me want everything and her verve was just as vital to my buying as was the actual jewelry.

I agree Bird, David did alot of shows and he and Jill are friends. Joan had a great life and look on the positive side, celebrate that life by purchasing things that make you happy! I also think it will be upbeat, as they'll have funny stories to share!

I think the first show will be nice and we will finally hear from David about Joan but on the other hand I believe Joans precence was a huge part of the success and only time will tell how it goes in the future without her.

It will terribly sad like Jean Bice's absence on QF. But life must go on.

Joan was the show. I'll look online to see if anything remains and gets my interest, but the notion of Jill and David doing a Joan show... Where's the fun factor in that? And let's face it, Joan's shows were always fun...

I will watch out of respect for Joan and thankful that QVC will still carry her items. I'm sure Joan and David planned years in advance for items and designs. Joan's touch is still there and her passion is in every piece. We can't bring her back. The sad part is she didn't have to pass, it is still up in the air about legal action and who is responsible. I think the show will go on, but the questions surrounding her passing linger. That is why it's so hard, none of this should have happened. I'm so tired of medical errors causing us to lose people for no reason.J

Joan's presence will be felt because that kind of personality and her kind of heart and soul will live on in her visions and creations.

I will have to DVR, not a holiday for me! I hope they don't base this show's revenue on whether or not there are future shows, many people are working that day as well. I agree, it will be bittersweet!

Without Joan it will only be the clothes and jewelry........similar to the Jackie Kennedy jewelry shows I suppose. Several times in the past I saw Joan's program when she was out. The show was just a show. No one can replace Joan on the Q.

That is true. Joan was the show.

I'm going to watch and see what David has to say but I'm not sure I will continue to watch the future shows. Joan was such a huge precence that it just won't be the same atleast for me it won't.

millieshops — Sun, 12 Oct 2014 23:29:23 GMT

I think the products will be just fine, but the shows just have to be different. To expect someone else to be Joan doesn't make sense to me - any more than expecting Angel to be Jeanne Bice would.
