Well, we listened to their "snark" for a long while.

They can come back all they want. It doesn't mean we have to watch. I surely would not buy some vitamin product I never heard from Kerstin. Count me out.

@MercyMe7 .  I agree.  I won't be watching.  Not looking forward to them returning.

You mean like the ones who swear they can't and don't watch JT then post all the things she said and did that irritated them during her shows?   And btw, I'm no fan of either, but I actually DON'T watch them to save myself being annoyed.

Re: Kerstin Linquist is returning to the Q....

I agree that I don't think we will see Mary Beth back as a vendor. I truly believe she was ready to retire, and then was convinced to stay on longer. I think she is happy to be with her family and friends and enjoy retirement.

 

I also don't believe that we will see David again, once he retires. I don't think he will be on social media for followers and will just be enjoying his life and retirement living his life as he wants, without having to worry about disappointing anyone who wants to set him up with their granddaughters. 

 

I think that both Kestin and Jennifer have already learned that the fame and followers they thought they would have when they left did not materialize. Neither of them have enough followers willing to pay big bucks for consultations with either of them. It just isn't going to happen.

 

I think QVC made a huge mistake giving them the big send-offs and parties and months long announcements and countdowns before the very swift returns. I don't see that either Rick or David will want a big good-bye party, and the only person who would is Jane, who will never leave, so she doesn't need a party.

in my opinion, David and Rick would deserve a big send off.

The other 2 that left and now suddenly appearing didn't  Caroline and Dan deserved a send off more than the two I just mentioned.

Yes, I think you hit the nail on the head.  They overestimate their following.  Most don't know who these QVC hosts are.  But in the host's minds they are mega influencers - all of them had to learn the hard way I guess - Jill, Kerstin, Jen, Lisa, - yes I said Lisa, she is hocking jewerly out of a hotel room.  Nothing says success like selling stuff from a hotel.

I'm guessing that it may have been too difficult for her to present items that she didn't care for. Maybe being a product rep gives them more freedom to present things they believe in. In any event, I didn't watch her when she was a host and don't plan on tuning in to watch her hawk anything else.

@Lisa now in AZ  Agree, the grass wasn't so green. QVC shouldn't have brought them back, same with Carolyn.
