Sometimes when I read these host criticisms I swear people must be watching a different show becaue 99% of the time I don't see it.

It's evident that the vendor is not important. Wouldn't the vendor be able to make selling points? Why have vendors at all?

Actually, that's the point. As someone who has been in sales, I can tell you it's the host 's job to sell, not the vendor's. A vendor is often very passionate about their product, but the host has been trained to translate that into the features and benefits that sell. So it's a team effort. I watched Lisa with Edward, I thought they made a great team. Edward is very bright and passionate, Lisa can sell snow to Eskimos!

That is her job.... she is the captain of the ship... and keeps the ship afloat.

I totally disagree, the vendor is captain. They bring the product. The salesperson is a hired gun. I saw the show and Bess is no shrinking violet. He barely got a word in because she kept cutting him off. This is Lisa's style, she wants to control the process. I find it off putting. On a positive note, he has great makeup that creates a simple, fresh, sophisticated look.

Edward Bess is kind of cute.....not as cute as Nick Chavez, of course, but fairly close. Smile Did Edward Bess ever model?

And sorry, (no offense to Lisa Robertson as all, I mean that) but she does tend to interrupt a bit too much. But other QVC hosts do that quite a bit, too. The vendor knows more about the product they created than the host does, so...yeah. Again, not trying to be mean to Lisa or anything.

Nick Chavez now has his own sub-forum under the My Favorite Brand folder

I must have been watching a different show because Lisa was very respectful of Edward and allowed him to talk about all of his products. She seems to be the punching bag of discontent women who watch QVC and always find fault with her.

Not only on QVC. Yesterday a poster started a thread about someone bashing Lisa on FB. And last night Lisa mentioned it on air. She said she had a pretty bad week and mentioned it was Wednesday because of FB then of course on Thursday. I looked at Lisa's FB and many of the posts must have been removed but what was remaining was an indicator of how bad it was.

Hosts are not immune to hurtful personal comments. If their behavior annoys you shop for the product online. Change the channel. But don't come here thinking that because you spend money with the Q that you have the right to post whatever cruel and demeaning thing about the hosts that comes into your head.

I completely agree with you. I just responded to a poster in another forum complaining about Lisa where she is telling her to grow up.

It seems some have no boundaries when it comes to denigrating a complete stranger.
