I say give them some time, that job is not as easy as it looks, and it will take some time to find their niche...I think if we saw some of the "old time" hosts now, and saw their videos from their 1st few shows, they would look similar...
Monifa is so much better than when she first started. It's like you said, the new hosts have to find their niche. I can't imagine talking about an item for at least 10 minutes. So I give them a lot of credit!

If they dont like talking about products or they find it difficult to do so then maybe a QVC job as a SALES PERSON isnt for them.....And they get paid rather nicely too, so I dont feel they are being overburdened nor
over worked when they are asked to talk about each item for 10 minutes--thats the job!. ......Yep I agree, everyone needs to find a certain career niche that fits their talents and abilities....a QVC host job is not for everyone....

You don't like him trying on the women's coats for fit?
Oh please! You've seen Rick try on women's rings for decades in jewelry shows, and you're still here watching & shopping.
He's trying to show context of how it will look for the shopper's benefit, and not just hanging on a hanger. Or in Rick's case, a hand and not just a ring form.
Alberti tries on women's ponchos and sherpa capes, and crossbody bags anytime they're in his shows. You're still here.

Ill never forget the time when suddenly a host scheduled for a show got sick and had to leave so Rick was the next host up so they had him host a Breezies Bra Show...He did a good job, and kept it on a classy level too .....
I remember former QVC host, Dan Wheeler, saying back in the day, QVC had more male hosts than they do now and they did present a lot of women's fashions...

A couple of weeks ago saw Alberti wearing a Turbie Twist on the Friday show with Amy, he cracks me up, but I love him.
