Exactly.......what the heck is the point. One trying to talk over the the other, and it ends up you hear nothing but garble. Than throw in the vendor and it's unwatchable. After 36 years, I am so finished with this circus.

Saturday Morning Q has had two hosts for years and years and years.

Initially, the show had three hosts.

It is absolutely nothing new.

There are indeed, many more shows with two hosts. I can't even guess why. Some pairs work well, some not so well.

Perhaps refrain this constant talking about the hosts today........

I don't enjoy two hosts for a presentation as they seem to be interested in entertaining each other rather than the presentations they are hired to do.This is not against the hosts but I don't watch a shopping channel to see them bonding.

Nope, way back in the day even if there were multiple hosts for SMQ they didn't "gang present" the items. They usually alternated product presentations and it was one host and the vendor at a time. Another host might chime in from the peanut gallery but it was not this obnoxious, talk all over each other, blabfest, free for all it is now.

I have found my solution.

I think 2 hosts is just awful. They waste soooo much time being chatty and silly instead of focusing on the product. Oh for the good old days of QVC when one host was the norm in most cases and hosts were not trying to entertain you while trying to sell products!!!

As long as they've gone this far, I'd enjoy seeing 4 or 5 in one show.

Like a wrastling match.....

They get rid of two wonderful hosts, and then they load up programs with this excess.

It's not new. Jayne B. and Pat use to present together.

Dan H. and Pat use to present together.

But if I recall correctly, they took turns presenting items as Tina and Ty on HSN currently do.

BTW, since so many posts today have been about the hosts and all have been deleted, this one is not long for this world!!

And wouldn't you think with how poorly QVC is doing financially, they would rethink the two or three hosts presenting? What's that saying....the definition of stupidity is doing the exact same thing and expecting a different result.🙄

I just saw that many on last weeks Gourmet Food program. Everyone's eating and talking and not giving any details or facts about the food. I turned it off.

I assume it's because they don't one host capable of hosting an entire show. Sorry if you think this is harsh but it's the only logical explanation I can come up with.

@They CallMe MRWILKES I remember those days of three hosts on Saturday AM. During the three hour program, I recall that it was sort of a tag team approach and not all three on at once. Sometimes one or maybe two but I dont remember chaos.

I think we all mean well giving feed back on Q. But in the end they are going to follow the plan of management.
