Re: Suzanne Runyan with Nicky Butler....OMG!!!

I don't know what's happened to Shannon over the years. I remember when she first started at HSN. Her mentor was HSN host Mike Reid. Anyone remember him? He did a lot of doll shows. She seemed fine way back when but now she's unwatchable.

I can't watch "knee bender" Callie. {#emotions_dlg.rolleyes} Honestly, you would think they'd be worn out by now. Surely she could find another way to emphasize her points.

Suzanne was very good with Kenneth Jay Lane -- he could be a curmudgeon, but they got along well.

I turn the channel whenever she is hosting. I can't stand to hear her talk incessantly.

Suzanne never shuts up...even with Jay King....but I think Shannon is far worse....and comes off so phony no matter who she is hosting with.....


I am not one to bash another woman or a shopping channel host but I have to agree about Shannon. She comes off so insincere!

But you're not bashing, right?

I wonder if HSN is pushing the hosts to sell more. Suzanne seems to be more pushy lately and so do a few other hosts who seem to talk non-stop on HSN.

I watched that show. It was painful to watch and I felt bad for N.B.

I like Suzanne. She is very versatile in what she can sell. She started at QVC doing crafts and we all know how that category turned out. Shannon must get top numbers because they use her for kick off a lot. Just like Rick. I agree her sincerity factor is about zero.

Re: Suzanne Runyan with Nicky Butler....OMG!!!

Nicky Butler seems kind of shy. He doesn't talk a lot. So she was probably compensating. Suzanne doesn't really bother me. (I agree she looks better now than on the Q.) While Shannon is another story. I cant watch her sell anything. And she seems to be on every night of the week!
