---------------------
I would add a third category...hosts that don't ever do the job well!! There are several of those! Now that the Q is not showing real time shows at night, there is no need to have an overflow of host employees. Either train the inferior hosts or let them go...

Cannot listen to Rick. He is always talking way to fast. Alberti on The Gourmet shows sounds like he is shouting. Shut both of them off.

She must have been having a personal summer that she is always talking about. Cannot stand that term.

Agree about grammar...but have you ever listened to even your local newscasters? They literally cannot pronounce much of what they report. It’s like they’re given an iPad with their story a minute before they read it... and what’s with this leaving ‘t’s’ out of words??? Like impor...ant (important) or forgo...en (forgotten). Seriously ridiculous and unprofessional...makes me wonder where these people
go to school...

I agree, he talks over the host where she or he cant get a word in to sell!!

Kerstien likes to say, what ever she is selling, that she has almost everything at her home. One day she was selling Humidifers and she had one in every room at her house! Then days later she had humifiders, different brand, and she had one in each room again. If this is the way QVC tries to get customers it is the wrong way to go. You should not tell the QVC customers things that are not true. Through us is where you get people to buy and no lies should be used.

Most of the hosts are hyped up. Who is more hyped than Jane Tracey, or even Sandra Bennett?
As for the host you mentioned, I have no idea who this new one is.
I know it's probably just me, and for a variety of reasons, I just can't watch these presentations with any pleasure anymore. It's just too frenetic, too hard sell, I think.
Maybe it's just that I've watched for too long. Around 25 years, I think.
I still stop at these channels when I'm channel surfing, but rarely stay on for more than a few minutes.
------------------
Me too!! I was someone who had QVC on much of the day. I enjoyed sitting down - relaxing - while watching the presentations. Now I check in every so often, but it has been a while since I sat down to watch an entire show!!
The 'selling' techniques have changed. I don't appreciate the current, maniacal tactics used just to make a sale! I do go online often and search for certain items....
Me, too! Two hosts that seem easier to watch (IMVHO) are Courtney Khondabi and Mary Nelson.

how about mary deangelis?

It's all part of their sales schtick. Also annoying is when they are talking about , say, cosmetic items, they keep several in their gift closet, one in every handbag, gym bag, glove box of the car and desk drawer at work!
