A lot of the hosts think they are the star, they should be taught that whatever item they're presenting is the ONLY star on the stage, not the vendor and certainly not them. I really dislike the talking over one another and the incessant laughter. I know it's only to "fill time" but it makes me want to change the channel.

Re: Host presentations

[ Edited ]

Last year DH and I were shopping for a mattress, we went into a local store and the saleswoman that waited on us was so very loud and talked so fast I asked her to STOP!  I told her she needed to slow down and lower her voice as I could not understand anything she was saying.....I was a tad embarassed by my comments but it was very annoying. 

 

She managed to tone it down for maybe a minute and then right back to her fast and loud talk...we left with out purchasing anything.

 

A few of the Q hosts need to slow down and take a breath, the items they are presenting are not that exciting.

Somehow, either it is what they think, or what they have been instructed (by whom?) what to think.

Talking louder/faster does not “create hype” FOR a product!

MODULATE - a word having great meaning for a TV salesperson, heck, any salesperson.

LOL...It absolutely drives me crazy when they repeat that statement every other sentence.  Just once I wish they would explain....as to what extent...do they actually work with plastic surgeons.

Hearing them say "we work with plastic surgeons" is as painful as watching Josie Maran put body butter on her left shoulder over...and over...and over

Lately on some presentations the vendor will say a sentence and then the host will repeat the same thing word for word.    Seems unnecessary to me.

There is a show host that makes sure to get out everything the guest is supposed to say and then tells the guest to explain the product.

 

Really?

 

After you just stole my thunder, the reason I am there?

 

Hosts have a role and guests have a role.  They are supposed to interact, not compete with each other.

 

Someone needs to retake Show Hosting 101.

I agree with alarmclock. I always mute QVC or turn to another station when Desiree is featured.
