Despite the fact that I am all the way in Paris, France I was still able to watch last night’s episode of Project Runway since David’s DVR/cable box is properly hooked up to the Slingbox which allows us to stream things recorded on his box online. The challenge in last night’s ep took the designers out of the sewing workroom and onto the streets of New York City in search of inspiration:
Some of the contestants rose to the challenge, some of them failed miserably and Suede annoyed the HELL out of me, yet again. After the jump, find out who was in & who was out …
Okay … it must be said, Trent hates Suede. I really thought that his little third person speak would either stop or fade into the background noise but no … it hasn’t, in either case. I can’t even take him seriously when every sentence out of his mouth is “Suede this …” or “Suede that …” I keep feeling the unnatural urge to reach into the screen and slap him — UGH!
Okay … how cute was it when we saw Daniel talking about how much he missed Wesley? We now know that the two of them hooked up on the show and are still dating to this day so at the time that he made that confession, they couple must’ve just gotten together and then were ripped apart (Wesley got axed after only the second challenge). It’s a shame that we won’t be able to see the two of them all coupley for the rest of the season. And, uh, can someone please fill me in on what exactly is up with Blayne? Either all that tanning has fried his brain or he’s just a freak. Seriously, he scares me. The fact that his designs aren’t the worst is also pretty creepy. I didn’t hate his dress but the time is going to come where his brand of avant gardeism is going to get him cut from the show. I’m really glad that Kenley won this challenge … even tho I would’ve given her the win last week, it’s nice that she finally got the recognition. That being said, I really liked Leanne‘s dress better this week … she put a lot of work into it and the outfit looked exactly like her photo (much like season one winner Jay McCarroll‘s design based on the Chrysler Building did). I felt bad for Emily … sure her dress was fug and everyone but her seemed to know it (Tim even warned her!) but I liked her … she seemed like a sweet girl. Jennifer got so lucky … her time is running out. She needs to step it up or she is a goner. I wasn’t all that impressed with Sandra Bernhard‘s guest judging … her appearance on the show didn’t make all that much sense and she didn’t really offer much. She did try to outdo Nina Garcia in her role of skewering the designers but she didn’t really do it for me. Nina rules and she cannot be touched, duplicated or replaced. Thus far the challenges have been cute … I want them to amp it up a bit. I kinda want more of everything … but Suede, of course ;)

There is no way that “Holla at yo boy” can replace “Make It Work”!
Suede needs to shut the hell up about Suede! And no one should make poor Tim Gunn say Holla at your boy. UGH!
I saw Wesley and Daniel at a bar in NYC last week (The night of Wesley’s elimination) and they are such a cute couple!
GO JOE!
Reason Sandra B. was on: Heidi promoted her one-woman show. Who’ll be the next judge? Seal?
Trent, LOVE your screen captions. But how could you miss “Holla atcha boy” ? ? ?
“Is it holler or holla?” I died.
1) blayne and sandra bernhardt could be long lost cousins or something..i have never understood her popularity.
2) jermaine(?) (kelli’s model) is sooooo NOT cute.
3) suede, stella, and blane all need to go asap! they keep eliminating the non-annoying people!
robin is really disappointed in this season so far, she can’t see any of the designers showing something great at fashion week! :(
“Holler at your boy!” Laughed forever after that.
I don’t understand how Stella was still in.. it was essentially a halter top and pants and NO INNOVATION AT ALL. I want to see her go even more badly than I want Suede and Blayne to be annoying.
HAHA OMG Blayne creeps me out but makes me laugh all at the same time! Me and my best friend are not putting Licious on the end of everything just cause it’s stupid! lol. AND yeah Suede needs to leave cause i can’t stand his ass.
NO joke. My msn name is currently “Hollalicious!” hahah!
I actually think Suede’s sweet! I like it when he’s talking to the camera and he seems so genuinly excited about what he’s talking about. It’s Stella and her leatha that’s driving me up a wall. I loved it last week when Blayne was making fun of her!
Ugh, I can’t stand Blayne or Suede, where is the love for Joe???? I wish we would’ve gotten a better pic of the photo he chose, because his dress was gorgeous.
i don’t understand how stella really even made it on the show to begin with. she does the same thing over and over and her voice is grating. i thought they liked people with personality, not people who want to make you bang your head into a wall repeatedly.
Has anyone else noticed that the giant blown-up cover of ELLE magazine behind Emily in that shot features a dress that looks A LOT like the one Emily made (from what I can see)?! What?
I don’t know if I can watch Project Runway this season if Suede is going to talk in third person all season. Just like I can’t watch So you think you can dance and the “hot tamale” train. The contestants need to realize Tim Gunn is the only one who should be able to have catch phrases, and Stella AKA “Leather Tuscadero” needs to go. I mean, the dresses in the bottom three were at least wearable, who the hell wears leather pants and a silver halter/vest besides the cast of “Rock of Love?” Sandra Bernhardt was a strange choice, at her peak of popularity wasn’t she on every worst dressed list ever made?
ugh! I can not stand Suede. He makes some interesting peices but the third person thing! come on. When Elmo does it, it’s cute, when a grown, albeit odd, man does it it’s ridiculous.
[...] Trent loves Project Runway, and watched it while traveling in Paris. Nothing can stop a devoted fan. [...]
