Re: Judith Ripka and the host she was with

I also like Pat, but not with Judith. She doesn't know the line & it shows. I think Jill & Antonella are my favorites with JR.

I agree with you on everything except Jill---she annoys me to no end---I'd only watch her if she's Judith or Louis Dell'Olio because I like the jewelry and the clothes---otherwise I turn her off. Pat is/was lost.

Re: Judith Ripka and the host she was with

Love Pat and her easy manner.

However, I feel Pat is lost when selling Ripka jewelry. Friday's effort wasn't as bad as her first time selling with Miss Judie a couple of years ago in the afternoon, thank goodness. But she made several errors which Miss Judie gently corrected, which is never good to have the guest correct the host. Also, I don't think Pat really "gets" the Ripka line. Maybe she doesn't wear it, who knows?

I hope Pat gets to do more prime time; she deserves it. I just hope it is not Ripka jewelry.

I remember when Pat hosted the show you are talking about Kap. It was a disaster! I felt bad for Pat, she was clearly out of her element. I am also glad she is doing more prime time shows.

ITA. This host doesn't appreciate Judith's jewelry and art. She may as well be selling jewelry at a large dept. store! There was No chemistry with her & Judith.

I am sooo with you jewel. Pat was way out of her comfort zone and it showed. Lisa and Rick are my fav's with Ms Judith. Knowledgable and very respectful.

I felt like Judith was a tad aggravated too.. Pat kept stumbling over words and shuffling her cards and Judith had to step in a couple times to fill the sound of crickets. JMO.

ITA with what you all said. I think Pat is a lovely lady but not with Judith. I also felt that Judith wasn't too happy. It was not a pleasant show to watch IMO and glad it was only a 1 hour show. I don't think I could have taken much more. Love Rick, Antonella or Lisa with Judith!
