Why not let the hosts do the selling if they aren't going to let the food reps speak?

Oh my gosh! I remember when he started. So he's around the same age as Jane, Pat, Mary Beth, Jayne and David. I was watching when he was waiting to get a call about one of his sons arriving. He was a wreck.

I generally record all GH shows to watch after getting home from work. Its gotten to the point when the show starts & I see Mr Motormouth is the host I immediately delete it. Rachel and Alberti are both a joy to watch & listen to! (P.S. will someone please tell David everything is NOT "EXTRAORDINARY".

Leah is in that group too.

Don’t care to watch Rick either. He is a definite channel changer. Rachel and Alberti are no better on GH shows. Both are as fake as a $3 bill. The grade school antics, yelling and screeching, squashing food, over the top reactions make food shows with these hosts unwatchable. I sadly have to agree with what is said about David. He used to let the vendors give info on their products. Not lately. Food shows were one of the few programs I could watch more of. Not any longer. QVC is getting desperate but their change in sales tactics isn’t helping their cause.

I've noticed that David has changed alot since he lost the weight...he seems to "talk down" to some of the vendors & take over what they are about to say.. he was never like this before... plus his smile is very phony 👎👎

Rachael & Alberti are the absolute worst host on the food shows .. They both act like they haven't eaten in days .. especially Rachael.. when she "man handles" the food it makes me sick .. they should keep her on the fashion shows with Kim & Susan etc,.

My favorite show is ITKWD..because...

I LOVE to watch David's face when he doesn' realize the camera is on him...and he looks bored, stern, mad, or "when is this torture going to end and how many more hours of this today?"...( like when he's watching Mark Charles for the 9807th time demonstrate snips or can openers like they were a cure for cancer....)

..then, his face lights up with forced interest or that smile you refer to...when he realizes he IS on camera...and he as two hours left to shill Tara's Crack-ware in those tired old cornball patterns that he KNOWS he has to fake enthusiasm over...cause he HATES them and if he has to gush over Boofetti or those infantile Holiday patterns one more time....he'll just..he'll just....well, ....you know.....

That's why I like to watch!!!

Why....it's EXTRAORDINARY and where it's all at!!!

Also I like to hear thier star performers like Mally talk about urinating in her pants. that really makes my week ( NOT).

Funniest show on TeeVee!!!!

My issue(s) is the obvious lack of sincerity and honesty when it comes to certain hosts and even presenters. Certain hosts make irrational comparisons such as buying steaks from QVC and going to a restaurant and telling me I can't get the same steak dinner unless I spend in excess of $60.00 at said establishment. You also have presenters who claim their product is only available at QVC when, with my own two eyes, I have seen them at local supermarkets. I know sales are important as is being straight up with people.
