Yesterday someone was asking if Alberti was gone as she hadn't seen him. I guess he wasn't on one day preparing for the show on Saturday in the Hamptons or some other place off site. I never get that concerned as I know they have vacations, prepping time, meetings, etc. I don't follow any particular host that much.

I didn't see the whole show this morning, but I saw a fair amount of it. I like David, but I enjoyed Jill as a host very much. I never really loved her personality, but she is an outstanding host. She totally sold me that coconut cake this morning. (yikes) I'm getting in Nov for my birthday. Smiley Happy

I'm really glad it wasn't Carolyn as I cannot watch her on food shows. I'm sure she's a nice lady but as a host she is unpalatable with all the food cramming and spewing and talking with mouth full. It makes me feel queasy.

I guess I'm out of practice watching QVC. I was so happy to be able to catch ITKWD for a change, but Jill is wearing me out. Some of these hosts need to calm down and come up for air.. I find myself breathless just listening to them.

I agree. Jill wears me out listening also and I have to change or mute the TV.

I would pass out talking that much.

Yes, Kate, I think I'd pass out, too. I think Jill is a lovely woman. She's knowledgeable and professional, does her job very well. I wonder, though, if sales would lag if she'd just slow down a bit? Is it really necessary for them to talk so fast?

I think Jill is very good, a teachers personality to me. However she can sometimes be loud and a bit arrogant at times- " I designed it", through my guidance", nothing like applauding oneself! But I guess she did, so why not say it?! I also think the Sunday cooking show should vary the hosts, as a change is good.

Leave it to gazelle77 to post one of her many snarky remarks about a host she can't go by a day without making a remark about one of them.

She must be miserable, she is always so negative. She complains all the time.

Just when I think she is mellowing, gazelle says if David never returned, it would be no loss. I think QVC is happy with him because his cooking shows seem quite popular.

I enjoy David's shows and like everyone who works he has earned vacation time off. Have fun on your vacay David!!!
