Why were the hosts names removed from the program guide?

[ Edited ]

I did like having the knowledge of who the host is for the hour reflected on the program guide.   Why would they be removed?  Any ideas?

@Suneshine So customers wouldn't not watch the show if they didn't like that particular host, is my guess.

Many complain when the host schedule changes too. Q can't win on this issue. 

 

I really don't care who hosts a show. I care that their shows are repeats of repeats, boring as all get out. I can't turn the channel fast enough when they act like children, compete for attention, and tell personal stories.

Probably to get ahead of any host bashing ......

I wondered if it might have something to do with the new programming and host combinations scheduled for the next little bit?🌸

It probably has something to do with the constant schedule changing.

 

Every time there is a host change, the complaints begin.

 

It really doesn't matter to me who hosts a presentation.  I find I really can't sit and watch a talking salesperson for too long.

 

Unless I am looking to buy something specific , I don't watch randomly.  

I only buy what I absolutely need, not what I see and might like to have.


I already have too much stuff.

I rarely watch any more.  I used to scan the schedule and se the shows of interest.  However, I don't enjoy some of the hosts, so I'm less inclined to watch a show that I'm only mildly interested in if one of those hosts is the presenter. And I sometimes turn on a show and find out I have no idea who that host is.  (And they wanted us to be more like "family" (or some such nonsense).. Anyway, what I do now is just search Items Recently Prevented to see what I might have missed.

I very much miss seeing the schedule with attached host names.

 

It served as both an invitation and a warning.

 

I most definitely paid attention and reviewed it.

 

What's gone is gone.

I'm getting real tired of the personal stories!!! I'm not interested in where you went on vacation, your daughters favorite chocolate, how many pairs of shoes you own etc,etc.. The long fake nails, and fake hair are not something I like looking at!!!!
