I agree with the original poster.

I really miss Lisa R. on the Q. And I really think the Q misses Lisa too.

And it's nothing against the other program hosts on QVC...I could just really relate to Lisa and I watched her on QVC for 20 years. I was in high school when I first started watching her. When I would do my homework and I needed some light background noise on I loved it when she was on. I would look up periodically and see what she was presenting and then get back to my school work. I was doing the same now that I'm in graduate school. I would actually record her shows if I was not going to be home. Now there's no such thing.

You might like to write this to Lisa's new Facebook. She would love it. You've been a fan for a long time, but you'll get over it, just like a TV show you miss after years of watching. :0

I don't not miss Lisa. Toward the end I was glad to see her go. Everything was about her and her only. She was too much into her self. She do just fine elsewhere. Nice seeing the other hosts blossom. Always a fan of Marybeth!

Seems they are short a host or two. I am sure they are in transition and whoever is left or newly hired will soon find their place to be.

I got disgusted with PM Style years ago because of the constant promotion of non-clothing products. There seems to be a core of fans who idolize Lisa in a manner usually found in teen-agers. The reason is beyond me because as far as I'm concerned she was just another salesperson. I don't particularly miss her, certainly don't think QVC is any worse without her and am sure they will survive despite her absence.

ITA It always amazes me how star struck certain people are with the hosts. They are sales people. Are you so star struck by the person at a department store who is dressed well and has a good sales pitch. It isn't with Lisa alone but they hang on every word, what she wears, where she's going, who's she with. It does remind me of teenagers. I wish Lisa well and I'm sure she will be fine. She'll be back selling something somewhere. As if she wasn't with her stalkers she'd have a private facebook page and disappear into the sunset. What happened to all the travel she enjoyed. Doesn't seem to be happening. Preparing for a new business venture.

I doubt it is Lisa'a absence causing a problem.I think it is bad programing.

Young hosts catering to young buyers ,selling old stuff and old fashion styles .

One item shows (vacumes/computers /ect. are too long and boring . Same ol ,same ol..........stuff being sold!

Too many mattresses, computers , vacumes and home products.

All day cooking , Expensive Food shows and those same dishes (forgot the name) that keep breaking under heat.

Products are way too expensive and no free shipping. If you buy a $29 product it costs $50 by the time you ship and tax it.

Hosts sales pitch much too strong and pushy lately.....shows are like infomercials with hackers .( example my pillow and that darn "4th range" pot or whatever it is called )

I could go on and on.......

...and yes,I use my remote and I do change the channel more and more often, most days I don't even do a Q check anymore

Even though I liked her and she was very good at her job,I don't miss Lisa at all.

I think the new host will be Mary from David's kitchen show. There was a posting of a host meeting and she was in the meeting. Plus Jennifer Coffey listed her in what she liked about each host. I'm sure she doesn't need a ton of training as has been working with David for quite a while.

I don't watch for the hosts, I watch for the merchandise. I have a life and don't need to attach to hosts.

I don't miss Lisa. Never really cared for her. Seems to be less drama going on.

I remember Kathy Levine and I missed her when she left.

Lisa was too much about Lisa for my taste.

Lipstickdiva · ‎03-10-2010

QVC was lost well before Lisa left. The shows have been boring and stale for a very long time now.

I didn't dislike Lisa at all but I certainly didn't think she was the be all, end all like some. Honestly, I barely notice she's gone.

But then I've never felt a real "loss" when any host has left anywhere. Hosts will come and go and the channels go on. Can't say I've ever really missed any host.
