Project Runway: Season 5 **may contain spoilers**

[meresal]

Ok, so I''m a fan of The Bachelor/Bachelorette and you gals have gotten me hooked on SYTYCD....
but PR....

I LOVE!!! Most friends/family close to me actually call it an obsession

Anyway, Season 5 starts tonight... will anyone else be watching?? By best friend/ ex roomate and I used to watch it together every week when we were at school, and the last 2 seasons we have been graduated, so when we graduated we made a pact that we sit on our own couches (if we weren''t in the same city) and call eachother during commercials!! I can''t wait!!

 

[meresal]

Freke: I know you''ve got to be a watcher...

DH and I love project runway!! I need to set up the DVR. Thanks for the reminder! I just looked it up and it says it''s still on Bravo. I thought it was moved to Lifetime.

 

[aliciagirl]

I''m so excited for this! I am a HUGE PR fan and so is SO. I will definitely be setting DVR for this season.

 

[jas]

Yes, I will probably torture myself again...I have disagreed with the choice of winner almost every season, to the point of aggravation and obscenities screamed at the tv...and still I watch.

 

[meresal]

Here's the deal: PR to move to Lifetime for a reported 5 season deal, worth $150 million, beginning in November 2008.

However, apparently Bravo, who signed a deal for the first 5 seasons, was supposed to have a "right of refusal" before they were allowed to offer the show to other networks. Here's the link as of April...

I love Project Runway! I will definitely be watching!

I think it might conflict with SYTYCD, so I''ll probably watch the rerun of it late tonight. (Hopefully they still do that-otherwise I''ll watch it online!)

Huge, huge, HUGE fan! Another of my favorite shows finished a few months ago and I haven''t had much else on TV to look forward to

(not into The Bachelor-sorry!) other than reruns. So yes, tonight the wait is over, I''m giddy!!!

Report back tomorrow...

I went to a dinner party recently and they were talking about Project Runway; I always thought it was about Modeling, gosh I was wrong. Well, if I knew it was about fashion design I would have started watching a long time ago! I have 2 cousins that actually get to design clothes for a living.

Also in the past year I have taken up sewing for fun so I am going to tune into; it maybe very inspiring for sure! hehe

[anniee19]

Ah! Project Runway is my all-time favorite show, and I''ve been a loyal viewer since the very first season! 15 minutes and counting, and I can barely wait!!!

 

[purrfectpear]

PJ rules !!!

I

this show even though I usually disagree with their final choices.

 

[Lexie]

Yeah, I''m not to pleased...

 

[Lexie]

Was anyone else pretty underwhelmed?

 

[CalBearsFan]

BF and I both love this show. I usually DVR it and watch it while its on. BF always comes home from work late and then wants to watch it with me.... so I end up watching each episode TWICE! I''m just too impatient to wait for him to come home before starting. LOL


WTH was up with that raincoat nonsense?????

 

[NewEnglandLady]

I''m counting the days until Blayne hears "auf wiedersehen". If I have to hear him say "holla at your boy" all season long I''m going to have to stop watching. Plus all of that nose sniffing and obsessive tanning? Me thinks he might have a problem...

OMG yes... he''s annoying. I think he''s trying to tag his own line "girlicious", like last years "fierce". Very annoying indeed.

 

[decodelighted]

I loved Nina''s comment: "This is how you dress to go kill someone" Ahahahahaha. So true. I think there was an interview with Tim saying that this season would have big surprises and favorites going home suddenly & fights & weirdness.

Loved that there were two Fifties-PinUp-styled chicks (including the winner) ... does this mean matte red lipstick is BACK just in time to pair with our GrungeRedux plaids???

 

[purrfectpear]

While I wasn''t digging on the raincoat deal, I cannot believe they kept trashbag weirdo. At least raincoat guy had some solid design experience and I liked his style from the trailer. It would have been interesting to see what he did with real fabric. Trashbag lady? Not so much.

ditto. esp to the last two sentences! i'm so glad i'm not the only one who caught that all that sniffin' he was doing.

Didn''t want to chime in until i sad seen the episode. Viewed it off my DVR last night.

Oh my, WHAT is up with Blayne? Have the UVA rays fried his brain? That diaper was UGLY

Hard to pin down any standouts- it''s too early for that. But I did LUV the yellow kimono thingie from Korto. She''s got style.

The producers and Bravo are in court about the switcheroo to Lifetime. Dunno what''s gonna happen there, but I heard a rumor that Bravo is intentionally "dumbing down" this season in case it does move to Lifetime.
