Project runway preview! Spoiler The sneak peek for the next episode is up on Project Rungay!
Looks like a challenge where Chris can rock the house!
(Incidentally, I'm through one episode of Project Catwalk (the MTV-style editing doesn't suit the show very well) and a half episode of Project Runway Canada...(oh, canada...) )
Has anyone noticed that during PR and during that model reality show, they run that commercial where the good-looking guy is pulling up his jeans, and as he pulls them up, a street and a truck and a phone booth appear in his room and he's suddenly standing outside? And that there's a guy in the booth instead of a girl? I got a huge kick out of that.
My first reaction, too, appalled. The style of PC totally threw me, but the fact it started with Isabella Blow was weird, especially since her death seems so recent. i think they expected it to be higher culture but then it got lower (Kelly Osbourne hosts the second? Who is hosting the third??)-- i don't think it's to do with the PR group, which did really wanna go for credibility from the get go.
I actually kind of like watching PR via youtube. I found when I had Bravo, they ran PR so many times during the week, and invariably I would find it while channel surfing, and then I'd end up watching the same episode 45 gazillion times. So far, the internets have kept me up to speed on all my favorite junk tv: PR, Pageant Place, and The Girls Next Door.
