I don't understand people going on about different host as if they've been privy to personnel records. No one knows what goes on behind the scenes because it's nobody's business.

Pesonally, while I feel bad that anyone lost their jobs, the hosts who were let go weren't among my favorites.  In fact, I barely saw any of them.  I know people loved AN but outside of jewelry I didn't not think she was a great host.  Outside of fashion, I don't think Gabrielle was a great host and I don't think Kristine was host material no matter what she was selling.  The only one I thought was well rounded was Stacey.

Individuals working in this position realize (or should realize) they are hired to promote the best in products they are selling.   When that no longer happens your time is limited. I have always appreciated the Q using hosts & models of different sizes, races,etc. to get an appreciation of how a product may appear to a mass audience.  However, you still need to have taste, grace, & tact to be successful.  Like it or not - Antonella of recent days did not portray the image  they needed or wanted.  I believe she lacked the support  of the product reps as evidenced by fewer appearances.    I have no doubt they have influence in the hosts they want presenting their products.    As said before - it's about sales!  But get with it people - it's a business & that's the purpose.

As long as QVC has David, Jane T and Shawn they are happy.

     That is interesting.  I haven't watched QVC in ages but when I did they were 3 of my least favorites.   In fact, two of them made me cringe and run for the remote.

Companies often make what appear to be bad decisions. They have reasons that we wouldn't be aware of. Who knows, the head honcho could be the next to go.

And wouldn't that just be poetic justice...

JT is very annoying with her immature antics, she must sell a lot of product or her husband is in charge of hiring.  Who knows?

@Fionna IMHO this was not a great move. ANtoinella

and Gabrielle were two of my most watchable hosts.

This puts more pressure on remaining hosts to be more and more chirpy, loud and manic.

Anyone see RD with the TSV moving the rings back and forth, back and forth manically. He was bouncing on his feet. No measurement of ring, no discussion of 

hardness on Mohs scale or durability, no showing inside of ring.

I'm still waiting for 2 eyeliners ordered July 3. Just about done with QVC.

I will NEVER understand his popularity... Nor why Amy's star has risen so high... Both are automatic channel changes for me... As are a few others... 

As for those who are 'done' with QVC, I say good for them. Contrary to the opinion of others, there's nothing wrong with taking a stand when a company makes moves one doesn't wish to support... Actually, I believe it's called integrity...  Personally, I don't shop here that often anymore and while I think their handling of the changes stunk to high heaven and while I have no use for top leadership, I'll not go so far as to say I'll never shop here again. I will say this will likely never be the shopping resource for me that it was once upon a time for a whole host of reasons...

Paid off my Q card and I'm done. They fired the wrong host. Antonella has 22K followers on facebook. She was a breath of fresh air. This was her dream job and she worked hard at it. Fire the newer hosts who add nothing to QVC.

@JackieHN   I wonder if Antonella's blond hair had anything to do with it.  In my opinion, she did not look good with that hair, should have left it natural.  People have been let go for less.

The three you list are on all the time, along with Amy.  Now we will see and hear them more and more...unless we turn off QVC.  That is a better option these days.

True....you also forgot   KL and JC.....ever present these days

@kelsey17 

When the 4 hosts were terminated by QVC I thought KL got sent a message to get her act together as she seemed to concentrate more on the products than herself....But I spoke to soon....I happened to tune in Sunday and there she was talking about regularly wearing a bikini during her time off....TMI...who cares....you might think OK if she was presenting an epilator, BUT it had NOTHING to do with the products she was presenting either....back to her old self.....

I do agree with the dismissal of KZ she was just not a good fit to be a QVC host...But the sad thing is they got rid of Gabrielle who did a good job, pleasant, didnt interrupt vendors....and even when Antonella was having fun she still got all the product info in there......  And then looking back further they got rid of Katie McGee...an EXCELLENT host......  And look at some of those they kept...SMH!!!  But its OK QVC because hosts that annoy I just grab my remote and don't buy..........
