Project Runway

That's what I fear, LurkerNan. The fact that only Wendy was playing like she was on Survivor last year made me like the show. It really was about the talent for the most part. I don't want that to change this year. But Santino, despite his obvious talent, is taking on my Wendy-hate.

I only caught the last bits of the show this week...didn't he say something snarky like "they didn't want to give me two wins in a row" or something like that? I guess he won the first challenge but not the second? Forget Wendy, he's channeling Omarosa with that attitude. I may have to watch more often...

Santino is really getting on my nerves. He has some kind of narcissitic, self-important disorder. He's not going to make it through this competition because he's never happy for others when they win. He's sad...and pathetic.

I really like how the designers were helping each other, critiquing and assisting. Santino and Nick seemed to have a real bond forming. I cannot believe how petulant he gets when he doesn’t win! Good grief. Speaking of Nick, he was a bit catty when making fun of Marla, but I still like him. And I really liked his design. I liked Santino’s dress on the doll, but not so much on the runway model.

Emmet almost appeared to have real human emotion when he was praising Diana’s fabric and design.

Yay to Tim for Calling Andrae on his over the top boo-hooing on last week’s runway. But I think Andrae took that too much to heart with his overly aggressive attitude tonight. I really didn’t like his poof ball skirt.

Okay, by this season I am SURE that the Elle editor is a total bit*h.

Santino is a grade A ass, but he is talented. Wannabe pre-teen Binky would have loved that dress on a Barbie.

Last season she was reviled for treating Project Runway like it was the Apprentice, but I betcha more than a few of this season's contestants got the message that if they act that way they can make it to Fashion Week.

Totally agree with this. Last season, the odious Ms. Pepper was the odd one out... not only because of her personality in general, but because she was treating it like a cut-throat competition. The rest of them were just doing their design thing, and acted pretty friendly to one another.

This season, so far, it looks like several of the designers read that caveat at the end of every ep (about how the producers also have a hand in choosing who goes/stays) and decided that obnoxious is the way to be kept on the show.

Back to the Odious Ms. P.... did anyone else throw up a little when she said something about 'you have to have an aura about you, I did and the judges saw it' to the people standing in line? You could have heard a pin drop. Classic!

I want the Nick Barbie!!! After seeing him piece together that dress I had a good feeling he was going to win. Santino is grade A asshat, but damnit he hasn't done anything to really make me throw in into the vile cespool of Wendy Pepper hate levels. I found it quite funny that he kinda had a hissyfit after not winning the Barbie challenge. Now if the previews are not being too misleading, then they are leading me to belive that Santino (who should always wear a hat, because his hair is Fucking Oily!) may have copied some other design. I may have to stop denying he is a major tool just because I like his designs.

Last week I fell asleep before the cut, but after catching a repeat of the 'Clothes off your Back' challenge, I noticed Andre's little sissy run off the runway when he was told he was still in. WTF?! he looked like Heidi and Nina had stolen all his Polly Pocket dolls and he was going to tell his mom, I was going to say he got hit in the face by a dodgeball, but we all know that boy is not the sporty type. As for his dress this week, again WTF? that dress was sporting some serious poof, it was heinous.

As for Daniel, I love that he is talented and has gotten a chance to show his talent off this season, but dude!Did anyone notice that this week's dress was a shorter version of the dress in the first challenge, at least they looked quite similer to me. If he is trying to include some signature design element into all of his pieces then good luck, because the judges will call him on that eventually as a sign that he isn't versitile. Oh, and the "Daniel Shuffle" how cute was that. As for Kara, why go after the hat? "Because I like hats." I would have loved to stay around for the conversation the people at Toys-R-Us had after she left with her hat.

My wife thinks some of the designers made the mistake of designing for Barbie instead of My Scene Barbie.

I just watched last night's episode and Santino is an ass. I don't care how talented you are, in the end, people don't want to work with an asshole. I think his b itchy behavior will be the thing that does him in.

Also, I think the one guy that came back from last season might have a shot if he gets better with time management. His dresses so far have been pretty good, but if he had just spent a little more time correcting little problems here and there instead of doing his "perspective walk" for three hours at a time, his outfits would look more put together.

And for a shallow comment...Chloe's barbie dress was gorgeous! I would wear that in a second (and I don't even like pink that much!).

ETA: My favorite dresses from last night:Chloe
Santino
Daniel

And the ones I didn't like:
Sci Fi Nerd Barbie, Fem Bot Barbie, and "What-the-fuck-is-she-wearing?!" Barbie
