Started in 1982 by two local businessmen, Roy Speer and Lowell Paxson, the program was originally seen in just 125,000 homes in Florida. After going national in July 1985, the show now reaches more than 10 million cable households over the Home Shopping Network. A rotating crew of 24 hosts with such names as Budget Bob Circosta and Bubblin' Bobbi Ray dangle and demonstrate products, while operators on 400 toll-free lines plug the orders into video-display terminals...
