That's the consensus from a majority of home shoppers who watched host Lisa Robertson say goodbye during an emotional two-hour show Friday night.
After selling some of her favorite items from brands like Dennis Basso, Philosophy and Laura Geller, Robertson watched a special farewell video featuring fellow hosts, vendors and fans.
After seeing the clip on live TV, the host couldn't help but tear up.
"Thank you so much for joining us," an emotional Robertson told the audience while toasting with her friends. "That's all I can talk now."
Just a few days before her final show, the former Miss Tennessee went to her QVC blog to thank fans for all their support the past 20 years.
"I am not sure you realize what a difference you make. We have shared a lot you and I, the good and the bad," she wrote. "You have become a part of my every day. I know you listen to me, but I want you to know that I listen to you, too. You have been a bigger help, a greater source of comfort and a more welcome diversion when I have needed it, than anything else I can think of."
Robertson first announced she was leaving the shopping network in October before the QVC Beauty Awards.

Although she has yet to reveal her new plans, the woman behind PM Style and Friday Night Beauty is already excited to enjoy some much-needed rest and sleep.
"They say that ‘Today is the first day of the rest of your life,'" she wrote on Facebook. "On this first day, I overslept, and it was wonderful."
And while fans are eager to hear more about Robertson's "new challenge and a new adventure," shoppers and co-workers alike can't help but share fond memories of the QVC star.
"She makes life glamorous and happy," host Courtney Cason said Friday night. Added fellow hostess Amy Stran, "You are already missed."
