I did not get any sort of impression from Jill that she was anything except a little sad to see the end of an era; she didn't seem hurt or upset, just nostalgic.

I really enjoyed the final show, and I, too, got teary at the end . . . and I was SO glad she didn't take down the YHJ sign on air or I'm sure I would've actually burst into tears. I like Jill, but I had no idea I'd feel this emotional about a TV host leaving her job.

      I also got teary eyed!!!  I can't imagine how Jill will hold it together for the last show....and three hours long!!  Am sure it will be difficult!!

      She was also one of my favorites and I will miss her delightful shows!   Loved her attention to detail and her professionalism. Such a good host!!

@loriqvc  me too!  I never thought I would have this emotion either.  The hosts, They want us to seem like they are our friends, but Jill always seemed down to earth and very likable.  She seems fun.  I felt bad because I can be sensitive too and 25 years with people you enjoy, it’s still a big change in your life.   I felt bad because she was emotional.  I’m glad she didn’t take the sign down too!

I admit I did a lot of speculating when Jill announced she's leaving. But I'm done with that now. I'm just going to enjoy her last show...with a tissue. All that being said, I think what Alexa6352 said was very well put.

They used to have beautiful chests (dressers) to show....I have a couple...now it was spent 75% on that pillow guy and silly items.....soap rocks are on Amazon too... for less $$.

I want to ask all of you: I watched this show and when she started to cry..I thought to myself..This does not sound like someone who wanted to RETIRE??...Something clearly happened between December her 25th Anniversay show and April when she announced she was leaving...I know she can't say..BUT maybe someday she will tell what happened..For now she will stay quiet and she will not BURN ANY BRIDGES..Because you never know what happens!


 

Exactly!! Just what I thought from the start and more and more since she announced. From her words, and demeanor...all I could think was the same, she had not planned to leave now, but something went down. As other poster here said, I've felt the same, maybe they just couldn't come to agreed upon terms that worked for both the Q and Jill, but I too keep saying...stupid QVC, you let one of your best and brightest stars leave too soon!! Such a void... she was my favorite host and the only one I really ever want to watch anymore.  Well-spoken, prepared, polished, classy, thorough, fun, relatable. No one else will fill her shoes. Wish her all the best ~ hope she shows up somewhere else we all can enjoy.
