Haven't seen any of these people mentioned here...am continuing more and more to dislike the 3 recent new hosts, Monifa, Vanessa and Rosina...Monifa is pushy in her personal style, Vanessa mild, meek yet nice, and Rosina is good except for her loud and strident voice. Monifa and Vanessa continue to experiment with various hair styles, clownish nail polish colors, which detract from presenting. I want to see a product and its description rather than a host's appearance detracting from the product. Turnoff for me and some of the 2-3-party hosting/vendor is unappealing, am pulling away from tuning in more and more due to busyness, comedics, childish behavior, incessant laughter by host and/or vendor, chronic personal life discussions and yaking in attempt to present a product (belongs on social media, not QVC). New Cooks Essential rep cannot do a presentation/demo without obnoxious excessive laughing--pure foolishness--I'm gone! For me, as a result of accumulating program changes, QVC has lost much of its appeal and mostly its class, hence less watching and purchasing. Not fond of unkempt appearance of some hosts, deterioration of Valerie Parr-Hill products, the excessive food shows and length. I do not know what QVC is trying to achieve other than sales, but I am overwhelmingly unimpressed! Hiring new hosts to fit an agenda; why is this relevant to someone being hired to work a job? I have been a watcher and purchaser since QVC evolved from CVN days in late 80's. Unfortunately, QVC is losing this long-time customer with limited purchasing only of certain product brands I adore; will only watch specific hosts for those shows who act professional, otherwise will only order online, not watch. Just my opinion!

@LaurenCats4 I enjoy both channels also. They are formulaic but a few have surprised me. Marilu Henner starred in one in which she became pregnant while studying abroad in Italy. Marilu is Jewish and her baby was adopted a woman who was Catholic in the US. Flash foward, they are unexpectedly reunited. Another one featured a Jewish school lin which administrators hire a Black, former, professional basketball player as coach. These were realistic, explored the issues in a sensitive more complex Christmas movies on Lifetime , BET, and VHI (they scheduled. movies that were naughty or nice including a profane one starring Ru Paul). The movie with Henry Winkler was great and on again this week. It ia also one of the better ones.
I'm giving each new host a chance to develop their presentation styles and allows each to remain true to who they are.

@LaurenCats4 I forgot that the Saturday night lineup on PBS is filled wihat great mysteries: Father Brown, Midsummer Murders, and Murder in Paradise.

I am all for AA and glad that more minorities are represented. But, in correcting a situation, quotas are used. QVC has hired both racial and ethnic minorities before and they have left for various reasons, as all employees leave eventually. There are numerous hosts and vendors who live different lifestyles. Some prefer to keep their lives private, other not, it's their choice. It would be ideal if hosts were sales people period. It is their competence, their knowledge, professionalism, and presentation ability that is important.
And I feel sorry for people who prefer to rejoice at seeing a person overweight rather than hope they get healthy. There is an obvious problem with neighborhoods being in "food deserts" and lack of healthcare for areas of high hypertension, diabetes, and cancer. Ignoring this fact is discrimination. Being large and healthy is for a physician to determine.

I recently saw a very very tall new host with Allie the other day and I thought she was phenomenal!
I do not believe she has been made permanent yet, as I don't see her on Meet The Hosts page, but I can't believe she won't make it! She was really good...It was a clothing show....Sorry didn't catch her name.....
