Just to clear what I wrote previously..... I never stated that I disliked Jen (or Kirsten)....  commenting mainly on speech habits.  I'm positive that both are kind and good people.  But there doesn't seem to be much offered to them to improve some speech habits that are annoying.  I actually forgot to mention the worst one of Jen's.  She swallows some of her words in her rush to get it all said.  That means some of what she says is never really heard, or misinterpreted, which got really bad when the Q's sound was going in and out (for us, this happened only on the Q station, no other channel.).

Jen is not my favorite host,especially when with Issac.He starts mumbling,she still is talking an then calling him "hon",like she is his best friend,poor taste.When she is with anyone she has to be seen.

@Q4u   I like Jennifer very much.  But this is also a frustrating pet peeve of mine when it comes to her hosting.  Why does she do this???  She can sometimes go on for several sentences at hyper speed while swallowing her words.  Then she snaps out of it and says, "OK! now...."  It's a very bad habit, even if'it's not product related and she's just trying to say something cleaver or funny.  It's not.

I'm glad there a lot of people who enjoy her, but I am not one. Her facial expressions drive me crazy and she talks so much that the vendors don't get to talk about their products. Also, the latest is her constant talking about how many items have been purchased and how many are left. She's really getting to be a hard sell.

"her constant talking about how many items have been purchased and how many are left."

 

Don't they all do that?  I actually don't mind JC,  and IMO two of the worst for not letting vendors talk are Sandra and JT.

I notice it more with her than others. She is very dramatic about it and rarely there is a sold out sign, that's all I am saying. I am happy that you enjoy her. Just my opinion!
