@sunshine45 , wait, Dan, too!? I am clearly behind in my QVC news. I was just watching Dan & Pat the other day. They are always so good together. Sure, Dan can do his standup comedy routine, but that's Dan. He is likeable because he is calm in his presentations and not over the top.

I edited to add this: I did a search and found a thread about Dan not leaving. I am happy to see that because I know how glad he is to be working after his heart attack a few years ago. This is in Dan's words

Just for the record...there have been rumors posted of my pending retirment and they are NOT true. If and when that time comes I will most certainly be posting that information myself and not letting a reporter I have never met, was never interviewed by or never spoke to, be the one to tell you. I am a rather private person by my nature and I don't do many interviews. First of all, my life is rarely news worthy and second...they get thier "facts wrong". The "reason for my soon to be departure" was sighted as "his declining health" and "life threatening condition." WELL THAT'S NEWS TO ME!
I promise I am doing just fine. I was out of work for two days last week with a painful back injury but I am on the mend and doing well. Sunday was the third anniversary of my heart attack and although those days were worriisome for both myself and my family...those days are behind me and I am stronger than ever.
So, I'm sorry if I ruined some one's half baked article but I'm not going anywhere. I love my job, the people I interact with and the purpose of my chosen profession...to help people to realize little slice of the American Dream. So now because of this I have no choice but to go out an buy a large bird. I have the perfect article to line the bottom of his new cage with......
I'm staying right were I am and until I tell you differently ....enjoy the show.

@GloriBee @sunshine45 Isn't this from 2016?

Two hosts at one time is annoying as they talk over each other and their guest.

Carolyn is such a gracious and humorous host who really was a great asset to QVC.

I find her spontaneous disappearance unacceptable and disgusting.

Like Carolyn, her posting is beautiful and I wish we all could be more like her.

This announcement is too sudden and unexpected. Had she chosen to leave, she would have announced it beforehand.

Carolyn let go over other hosts? They have to be kidding!

It almost appears QVC management wants to fail.

She turned 64 last September and I believe the oldest... a company looking for an excuse to let seniors go when the opportunity arises? Very common.

On that last birthday she said she hoped to stay around (QVC) for a long time.

Edit:

She said at the end of her Denim & Co Tuesday, yesterday, program with Gary telling us when she would be on next that week. I know she said Sunday (March 5) with Denim & Co and I think another Garden program this week. No way, did she expect to leave QVC.

@GloriBee That post you quoted from Dan is from 2016.

Dan is indeed gone from QVC. He posted on his private Facebook page.

@GloriBee the facebook page was from 2016?

Getting rid of Carolyn is a big mistake. We love her! Many of the new hosts are impossible to watch and you fire one of the best hosts you have. QVC's days are numbered I will not support a business who maes such an idiotic decision.
