Please keep your opinions to yourself and stop bullying. After everything that is happening in the world, no one needs to hear senseless negativity. If you don't like something a host is doing, change the channel and keep your negativity to yourself.

That is so true phillyphan. People who talk about/bash/gossip about others behind their back would never in a million years have the nerve to say it to the person's face because doing so requires a back bone and these posters are spineless. They post their garbage and then they run, rarely if ever do they come back to either defend themselves or apologize for being so rude. They hide behind their computer screens ridiculing others because they themselves lead pathetic and joyless lives. People who lead happy and satisfying lives don't tear others down to build themselves up.

Sad and pathetic is what they are.

This is not directed at Antonella, just a general observation. Shopping channels want to be a happy pleasant place. I believe they teach hosts to laugh where nothing funny has happened. Pat laughs at the drop of a hat as does David. Callers say somehing to the host and hilarity ensues. I don't know a single person in real life who laugh as much as shopping hosts. I've learned to tune it out. I like a calmer presentation but that's just me.

""Laughter in any form is God's music....""

Yup. Change the channel. Personally I think she's adorable.

Personally I think she has become very loud and talks a mile a minute. I don't know when she takes a breath. Watched her do a costume jewelry show last week and had to turn it off. It was as though she was thinking, "If I talk real fast and loud, maybe they won't notice how hideous this junk is." She had never bothered me until that day.

I don't often go off on posters but you know what, I'm sick and tired of opening threads to find host bashing inside. While there might be some that enjoy them, I don't, and I'd so appreciate being given a heads up in the title so I can ignore you complainers who obviously have nothing else to worry about in your lives but the way vendors twirl themselves around, hosts look in the monitor or laugh in a manner you don't like.

Try using your remote, you know, that thing that makes it possible to turn the channel or mute the sound without having to get your behind up off the chair. It's black, has buttons and works on batteries.

I also have to agree with this! If the hosts laughs funny, has no personality or just shows up for work there is always someone to start a stupid thread about it!!

In this world, the day we criticize someone for laughing, we should roll up the sidewalks, cut out the lights, and go home permanently. It would be a sad day on earth.

OP, I'm sorry for your pain. Evidently, you have a negative life.

One of the nicest qualities about Antonella is her gift of laughter. We should all be so happy all of the time.

well said Remee. We should all take a moment to contemplate the sadness and pain in the life of the op that she feels the need to strike out at others. Her own life must be a mess and we should all feel some pity for her as that is the general rule with bullies; they are unhappy and unfulfilled

My grandma raised me. She always said, "If you meet a person with a smile. It's pretty hard for them not to smile back".

I've always found that to be true. Instead of changing the channel when she comes on why don't you sit through her presentation. You just might find yourself smiling.

If you don't, then too bad and go change the channel.

My 'take away' from this post -- while catching up on DVR'd shows from this week is the majority of responders are having a good day while 3 have ANTS in their brains. ANTS is an acronym for Automatic Negative ThoughtS. ANTS are tough to get rid off -- but once you do --- you are free indeed!
