To sum up

Check out this series of entries, nearly live-blogging Project Runway. You'll get my thoughts on today's episode. If you don't watch the show, I'm sure it will be fascinating for you. First entry in the series is at the bottom of the page, so keep on scrolling down. (though I just realized that you can see who the winner is right away, since the last entry is right after this one. Hmmm. . . is it too late for a spoiler alert?)

BTW, this is clearly the last time I am going to do this. It's like blogging, only worse, and it's also like watching TV, only worse. Yeah. Not so much for me. Apparently I don't multi-task well.

And the winner is. . .

. . .Christian! Cocky bastard.

Jillian is in, headed to Fashion Week.

Sweet P is out. Saw that coming, didn't we?

It's down to Rami and Chris. Who will get the final spot in Bryant Park?

Yes! Chris is in!

Bur wait, what??? Rami is also in? This is crazy talk!

They apparently both have to create collections for Fashion Week, but only one will actually get to show his collection. Very interesting, no?

The judges chat. . .

From the looks of it, the judges don't really like Rami's predictable draping and Sweet P's boring dress. They also didn't really think Chris did anything new with the crazy shoulder thing. I'd say Jillian and Christian are certainly going to Fashion Week. And the third. . . my vote's on Chris.

(Nearly) Live blogging stinks

I am tired of this. I'll post one more time to tell you who wins. But no more of this nonsense. I want to pay attention to it.

More Project Runway

Tim is here to check things out and bring in the models for a fitting. Uh oh, Sweet P's model is late. Not coming? Coming? Whoever has Sweet P on her team just got some points for model trouble.

Oooh, a special guest! Look, it's. . . Who? Collier Strong? Bleh, who cares. Makeup consultant or some such shit. Bring back SJP! I want to get Bitten!

Chris is done early. He is taking a nap on the couch outside. What is he thinking?! Get in there and fix the hem, or something.

I find it bizarre that Christian can fit into the clothes he designs. They are meant to fit a very skinny girl. I guess he is just a very skinny little boy.

Moment of truth. . . Tim doesn't think Chris's outfit is "wowable." Tim is worried. Like usual.

Ack, cat on my lap making it hard to type.

The last challenge?

Christian just said something about this being the last challenge. Did I miss something? Are two of them going home before Bryant Park?

Sweet P never finishes on time!

Time to fast forward the commercial. . .

The shopping etc.

Christian said he is picking a military, high fashion thing. I bet he'll win. I hope so, he's on my team. Of course, with 5 contestants left and 3 of them on my team, the odds are in my favor that one of them will win. But I am also suck at this fantasy team thing.

Shopping done. That was super fast. Two days to finish the challenge.

Rami picked purple. Hmmm. Make it work, Rami.

Jillian wants to be edgy. Not going to happen, I think.

Is Chris making a trash bag collar?

Here comes Heidi

Seriously, who cares about the models? I don't even remember their names from week to week. All this drama over the models, sheesh.

Chris stayed with the girl who is apparently called Marcia. Amanda is out. Dammit.

The challenge. . . another field trip. 5th Avenue and 82nd Street. Where are they going? The suspense in this show kills me!

Ahh, the Metropolitan Museum of Art! Rami thinks it is huge (thank you Captain Obvious).

Hee hee, statue butts!

They are using art as inspiration for their designs. What a novel idea. 45 minutes to pick their art inspiration. Rami is stuck on the draped Greek stuff. No surprises there.

Christian likes the European gallery. He would. (I don't even know what I mean by that.)

Jillian finds it spiritual. I find her annoying.

The opening

Chris won last week with the women's wrestling challenge, and our favorite hat-wearing crier Ricky was out. I think I'm rooting for Chris at this point, though I think Christian is the most talented.

Opening credits are over.

Sweet P sounds kind of dumb. She's always so shocked about everything.

Yes Rami, we know you're not from America.

My first (nearly) live blog

I'm going to try something new. I'm going to blog about Project Runway as I watch it. It's not technically live, since I recorded it on the DVR and I'm starting it 20ish minutes late (Plus, I won't swear by it, but I think I actually recorded the second showing of it--the one that starts at 9:00 central time instead of 8:00. Can anyone verify that? Does it actually start at 8:00?).

Anyway. . . enjoy. If this doesn't work at all, I promise I won't subject you to it again. Unless I feel like it. I am dizzy with power!
