I already knew the "who" but was really disappointed by the "why." I was hoping it was for something more exciting, like stealing Bradley's weed (you know he has some) or trying to erase Jeffrey's neck tattoo.

where is Kors? I'm too lazy to look on the blog for the answer.
I really like Nena now, she's grown on me from last season.
The show doesn't seem to pull any punches. Two of the most interesting people are gone - snowboarder girl and Serge Gainsbourg 60's guy. And the guy who got kicked off was pretty talented.

I was watching in bed and I fell asleep during the very last commercial break before Heidi aufs a designer (those commercial breaks on Bravo are so LONG!), so when I woke up a different show was on. Thank goodness I was rolling tape so I could immediately go see what happened. For once I guessed right about who got canned.

I agree that "having a pattern book" seems like a, well, lame reason to get kicked out given all the hype Bravo put into it. Have you heard Tim Gunn's podcast? There are lots of details there that are quite interesting in terms of how they actually go about filming these "reality" shows.

I missed the end of the show, but I looked up spoilers. I was pretty meh about all 4 of the designs (well...I haven't seen Bradley's yet), I'm kinda pissed that Angela's still around, and now that Keith's gone she'll be here forever!

(Also, I'm in love with Laura/Michael, especially the vest/red tie he wore to pitch his outfit).

I loved Michael's outfit, too. Wouldn't have expected that from a guy from Hotlanta whose portfolio was full of hip-hop hoochie mamas, but I love the fact that I'm always surprised by him.

He is (no pun intended) my dark horse for winning this competition.

Angela should've been booted by now, but this outfit was really, really good. She/her team deserved to win.

I wonder something went on offstage with Angela that has everyone so pissed at her. It seems like the animosity toward her far outweighs her being lazy on the Miss America challenge and brown-nosing Kane to be his partner. She certainly hasn't struck me as a "feminazi," as Jeffrey called her in a previous episode, at least on the show -- which makes me think something hasn't been shown yet.

As for Keith -- I think this was just the last straw, and the first concrete evidence of wrong-doing that they could punish him for. If he'd just left the set for a few hours, it'd be tough to axe him.

I agree with me3. I am not Angela's biggest fan, but her outfit was spot-on. Also, way to go, Keith. F U.

Regarding Keith, my sentiments were echoed later in the show: "What an asshole."

I miss Malan. Was that his name? The guy who grew up in Tokyo with the fake-sounding accent. He broke my heart when he got "auf'd."

Re: Angela - I watch the "Bonus Footage" on Bravotv.com, and she comes across as really annoying all the time. I think that's probably the number 1 reason the other designers don't like her. That, and she thrives on whickety-whack.

I just watched it. Oh, so glad to see Keith go. Although I like to watch him with the sound down - he is very pretty.

I'm glad Robert didn't get kicked off. I love him and Kayne together.

Oh, and wrt the sketchbook speculation? From Tim's Take on the Bravo website:

And please let me put some rampant speculation to rest. It seems that everyone now knows about the sketchbook in which Keith presents copies of the work of other fashion designers. Nina, Heidi, Michael and I all noted this when we reviewed the portfolios of the semi-finalists. Keith presented four to six sketchbooks and look-books (I can’t recall the exact number), and we assumed that this particular book was for inspiration. Fashion Designers have a responsibility to look at the design work around them. Many make notes or illustrations of the work that appeals to them. It’s not at all unusual. So, for us, that sketchbook was and continues to be a non-issue.

I'm disappointed Tim didn't call it "Sketchgate."

Best part: Laura telling Michael when discussing Angela's predilection for rosettes: "You think its funny now, wait until you're standing on the f**king runway".

I wish Laura was my mommie. I'd let her catch me with my hand in the cookie jar every day.
