project runway

okay, it's a little strange to me that i'll concern my blog with discussion of a tv show, but here we go...

last night was the new project runway -- the reunion show, where they had back all the designers from the season to talk about what went on. quite entertaining, though, after the rerun last week, we were dying to see the competition progress. oh, well... we'll have to wait 'til next week!

anyway, i started getting into the show around mid-season. i had rehearsals for the august [munk] show on a few wednesdays, and i'd get home from rehearsal to find lexi watching runway. i was quickly wrapped up in the show (despite my resistance!), and here i am. but to the point, i wasn't familiar with many of the earlier-departing designers. i think one of the first shows i saw was when keith got auf'd for having the design books.

he was pretty confrontational in the reunion when they talked about his departure and the reason for it, going so far as to suggest that his books were taken from him and later planted in his room by someone. now, were that to be true, that's a terrible thing to have happen to you. he shouldn't have brought the books to begin with, but, if they took them from him, no harm done. i seriously doubt that someone planted them in order to get rid of him; it reeks of a desperate ploy of a guilty party to alter the perceptions of the judges around him.

vincent was hilarious -- i couldn't believe that tirade he went on about his clothes being laundered! michael and kayne out on the roofdeck, shocked, doing impressions of him and leaning over the edge of the deck to look at vincent, now out on the street, still yelling and cursing. somehow i get the impression that the producers' dealings with his clothes didn't turn him on much.

michael deserved to win the fan favourite, and that he did. he's just a very likeable, friendly and sweet guy with loads of talent. i think he'll win the whole thing.

one last thing -- if i were gay, i would be so all about tim gunn. smart, concerned, caring, and quite dashing as well. quite dashing indeed.
