This is my opinion only,and isn't this place for that? I donot care for Courtney, when Lisa left all of a sudden she played dress up,darker hair ,styled like Lisa's, wearing the highest heels ever, short skirts,tons of make up, and last night she was on late at night and was loud and obnoxious, she kept talking over the show vendor,had puffy eyes like she haden't slept recently had her hair pushed to one side in a braid,lots of jewelry, who does this sound like? uh huh, she even tries to talk like Lisa.She is trying to hard,when she first became a host I thought she was sorta sweet ,made mistakes,now she is so phony,I don't watch her for long.Alberti is on usually during the night or early morning, he is very likable so far,he seems sincere,hope he stays that way.If you like her that's fine again this is my opinion.

I like Courtney’s charm and sweet personality. However, after watching way too many of her presentations where her stories/anecdotes went on for an excruciatingly long time (or off the rail altogether), my knee-jerk reaction lately is to turn the channel when she’s on. I love wit, charm & and humor, and the hosts' side stories & comments are usually a wonderful break from the monotony of the sales pitch. But when it's done to the extreme, to me it shows the host is more about showcasing her own talent for talking (not conversation, just talking), rather than giving important and accurate information. That turns me off very quickly. Courtney seems to be able to relate anything back to something else, sort of a "six degrees of separation" for sales. That’s a good skill for selling things that sell themselves (or have free shipping all the time!), and especially for social media videos, where people seem to jabber-jabber all the time in the hopes of sounding clever. But for TV sales -- please know when to come back to the product.

C. S., l agree. It's a delicate balance between the product and personal anecdotes. I think the hosts' talking should be, perhaps, 90% about the product and 10% personal.

I'm not a big fan of Shawn's and I doubt that I'll tune in to PM Style at 10 pm on a regular basis. That whole preachy thing and sad stories doesn't interest me. I turned the show off last night when she started in on that. I tune in for the clothes and jewelry, not for the blues.

You know, this is the key that the Q and some of the hosts need to understand. The public/customers have their own sad stories, stress and reasons for tuning into the Q that gets their minds OFF their own blues/troubles. I know I do. Sometimes I just don't want to think about the world's troubles or my own and just want QVC to parade some gorgeous clothes and jewelry in front of me. I know I can turn the channel, and I often do.

AMEN sista!

Lisa was a mentor to Shawn as well as one of her protégé's. I do not think Lisa would say anything like ""Courtney should have received the PM Style job"" on her Facebook page. I always thought the sidekick stuff was set up so new hosts could get some seasoning with the top hosts.

Lisa has not been negative about QVC on her Facebook page. Other than giving a boost to Dr Denese and highlighting old friends/vendors from QVC. Lisa has been focused elsewhere. I do not believe QVC fired Lisa or did not renew her contract. If that was the case there would not have been the two month ""good by"". She would have been gone immediately.
