@UpNorthGorgy  Yes, I remember back in the day Kathy Levine would always emphasize saying 'Jeffrey' when addressing him.

Re: remembering QVC hosts from the past

I remember Bob Bowersox and his kitchen shows.  I thought he was good at presenting products and explanations.  A bit shocked when he left.

Re: remembering QVC hosts from the past

A long time ago some poster mentioned Bob Bowersox "in the kitchen cooking with his thongs" and probably got the most responses ever.  She was trying to post "tongs."

 

Bob was a little boring, then there was the nutty guy who set the kitchen on fire, but they were both more to me more watchable than David.  

 

When David came along was about the time that QVC was about the products and hosts were about informing and connecting with the viewers than simply being "stars" and QVC focused selling on personalities rather than products and buyers.  As is the case now.

I saw a  Mike Rowe video on YouTube where he was asking the audience to call in and explain to him what the product was for.  HILARIOUS!

Bob Bowersox was great not silly enjoyed watching him on the other hand David has to look at himself and not address the people watching I've watched since 1986
