She did have probably the best 'broadcast voice' of any of the QVC hosts... then and certainly now... 

 

I did enjoy seeing the beautiful villas they visited and the pretty dresses she wore for these events and some of the jewelry, especially in the earlier broadcasts, was magnificent...

I actually liked these shows in the beginning, and then they got weird, with Lisa lowering her voice to speak reverently in hushed tones about a pricy necklace or bracelet. Too theatrical!!! 

 

But it I agree (when she wasn’t acting silly) that LR was the right host for this event. Nothing has really worked since. Edited to add: she was not a goddess (maybe Medusa with hair styles) nor did I get transported via a Calgon moment. If that foolishness were left off, we might get a real discussion @JONNYSBRO

Yes she was a goddess and she transported me to points unknown just like you do.  Entertaining, but doesn't match my team THE WASHINGTON CAPITALS!!!  WE Did IT!

Smiley LOL  CONGRATS  @Shawnie!  I don't know anything about hockey, but I'm a 20-year transplant to the DC area, so I'm thrilled for ya!  They should make the day of the parade a holiday.

 

It's a ghost town at my office building today!

I don’t think it is fair for posters to deliberately sabotage a thread because they find it annoying. I don’t think the moderators should allow this.

I too really miss Lisa's shows on the Q and I find myself rarely tuning in any more!

@stevieb Best broadcast voice is perfect.  Lisa had one of the best voices in TV shopping.  I’ll put aside those times she missed the mark with her uber-dramatically serene golf voice when she sold Italian-made jewelry.  All other times, Lisa’s voice was definitely one of the best in the biz.  

 

Oh oh how I miss good TV shopping voices.

I think Lisa said that she had to whisper a bit because they were filming in the wee hours of the morning in Italy due to the time difference and someone was staying at the Villa....
