It's nice to see Carolyn again. I turned it on at the start but no longer

watching, not interested in plants. Too bad Gary Goban is not around

to see Carolyn.

I'll probably get blown off of here..but here goes:

Never cared for her..too "sugary" for me..I no longer garden..I rarely watch anyone for more than a few minutes no matter what they are selling..JMO

Maybe I have a bad attitude, but if the company I worked for had fired me there is no power on earth that could make me go back. I would not give them the time of day.

I think those who think Carolyn steam rolled over Pat are the same ones that complain about hosts talking over the vendors and not being able to get their questions answered in the time allotted. Which way is it folks?
I for one think Carolyn did what every vendor should do when they present their product. And that is be as much informative as you can for the customer in the short time your allotted. And YES looking at their card shows there are many important details! A garden plant/flower has many facets to it, its not as easy to remember as like a piece of clothing. Carolyn did an Awesome job!! 🤗🤗🤗

@RescueLover Since I used the term steam rolled, I'll respond for myself.

Why does there have to be unique and separate club of shoppers who do not want a vendor to steam roll over a host, separate from not wanting a host to steam roll over a vendor? [

[By the way, I don't believe I have posted a complaint about a host excessively talking over a vendor, although we know that happens often too.]

Creating a balance and respecting their sales role should be a part of their professional job. It should not be an either/or situation, in my opinion. So I have no problem at all with my earlier observation or post.

SO glad to see that someone else feels like I do about Carolyn's firing. I, too, have stopped purchasing Denim & Co and other items from QVC. The only thing I have bought is Barefoot Dreams and I'm looking for another outlet for those items.

I did buy a few plants from her Girl Next Door show. It was so nice to see her again on TV.

@Redshoes07. I am with you. I don’t get it either. Carolyn was a good host. But right or wrong, it was QVC’s decision to let her go. If people are attached to someone on TV and miss them to an extreme, that is kind of sad.

Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else. Margaret Mead
