Not a fan of Stacy or Nancy. Both seem to be forcing their speech. Now Monifa has come a long way and Vanessa is a natural. I agree that Leah has become stale.

Monifa and Vanessa would be better,

I can do without all 4, Stacy, Nancy, Monifa and Vanessa...do not like any of these newer hosts, leave if any host a show!

I've never seen Stacy,Nancy Monica nor Vanessa. Guess I'm not missin much.😀

I so agree!!

I like Stacey.  She has a wealth of knowledge about fashion and style and should be hosting a main channel program during prime time.  I always thought is was rather odd how QVC does not utilize folks who truly have a background in the fashion industry.  How could they possibly not promote Katrina when she had a stellar resume in the fashion business.  Sad. I can only think that perhaps the "designers" felt uncomfortable that she might outshine them.  Lets be honest....would you rather dress like Stacey/Katrina or Lori Goldstein?

Stacy, Monica and Vanessa have quickly gone on to build their own niches at QVC without anyone's help. They quickly became on-air hosts with regular shows and interesting products which each had an interest and/or background in.

Intelligent and willing to share their knowledge, these women have brought so much to the viewing audience with their excellent use of the English language (few slang words) and their knowledge of the history behind products being sold. And each of these new hosts interacts well with vendors and is able to carry on an in-depth conversation about the items being sold! What a delight to have a brain in some hosts, rather than the usual QVC lingo. 

Nancy seems to be improving considerably, but now is trying to be everyone's BFF rather than putting an emphasis on the goal of being an excellent host. Nice woman, but she's far behind Stacy and Steve who were her partners in training a few years ago. As she continues to struggle, viewers wonder if she plans to be there on a long-term basis due to her lack of ambition and understanding of the permanent hosting position. She seems happy as a side-kick to Shawn, yet clearly has moments of confusion. IDK if she has enough energy and is healthy enough for the hosting position.

Newer hosts have passed Nancy up with their ambition and have found their nitches at QVC without chaos. They have been ultimate professionals and were ready to work with the public in sales. It has taken her a very lengthy learning curve to reach her stride of today, which still needs some improvement (i.e. interrupting guests, relying on Q-cards, a limited vocabulary, and that hair needs to be in back all of the time - never flipped with her hands).

I did 'catch' part of their show......Liked Stacey being a co-host.

Lively, yet not overbearing.  Perfect, imo.

A Tall, cool class of water, in a good way.

Stacy did play her co-hosting part well. She didn't interrupt at all; there were no unnecessary questions, sudden orders during the show or comments about her family which is always a good thing. She is always a professional while on the job. Have no idea, however, why QVC placed her with Leah. It's not Stacy who needs to be there as she has had her own show for a very long time.

Stacy was certainly better with Leah than Shawn as a co-host. The next question is: will TPTB try another host to co-host with Leah? IDK. Wouldn't it be easier to send Leah through a training course again instead of wasting another host's time? Leah does have trouble with sputtering and stammering around when putting together sentences, going through colors, remembering things, and that nervous cackle is a distress signal for anxiety or confusion. Clearly the camera crews cover a lot of things for Leah throughout her shows. Why QVC continues to place a co-host with her is a mystery to me. The woman needs help.

        Have said before and will say again...there is absolutely no reason for most shows to be hosted by two people!  Maybe Davdi's show because they are usually so long. but MaryD. is able to host a long cooking/kitchen show without a co-host....
