Project Runway Live Brog

Live-blogging Project Runway.

11:51 - I receive Leah's email telling me to live-blog Project Runway. Seeing as I am watching the premiere right now, I felt like this was a fantastic idea, even though I'm already a few minutes in.

11:52 - They're ready for their first challenge, but they won't figure it out until the morning. They're drinking now. On a roof. One is named Suede. Suede!?

11:53 - One designer says she can make a 3 piece suit in 8 hours. She has curly hair.

11:55 - A toast! To Project Runway season 5! Hedi Klum is happy. It's a good thing she's not pregnant this time. She's drinking. She's going to be smashed this entire season.

11:55 - The amount I look forward to getting to know this diverse group of characters is unbelievable.

11:56 - They're repeating the first Project Runway challenge ever. OMFG AUSTIN SCARLETT IS THE GUEST JUDGE OF THE FOOD CHALLENGE. The gay dudes are swooooooning.

(Austen looks ridiculous. He's a dandy now?)

11:58 - The AZN is making a rain coat out of a shower curtain.

EVERYONE IS DRESSED RIDICULOUSLY.

11:59 - EVERYONE.

<<>>

I hit fast forward, x4.

12:03 - A guy just said "whackadoodle".

You guys, every single person on this show seems interesting. I'm so excited.

12:04 - Some idiot elder rocker was relying on trash bags for her fabric but found out that they suck as fabric. Idiot!

12:06 - A girl made a gorgeous fabric out of vacuum cleaner bags dyed with bleach and stuff. It looks marbelized and awesome.

12:08 - Like, a ton of idiots in a row are using table cloths. Tim Gunn called them "a bunch of slackers". They went to a grocery store... and half of them grabbed a fabric to work with. Fucking dolts.

<COMMERCIALS AGAIN>

12:12 - "If I'm the first idiot eliminated, I'll be the jackass of the nation." - idiot elder rocker

Actually, all of these people are idiots. Dammit.

Commercials...

I'm getting thirsty.

12:20 - Some of these dresses are cool. Kudos again to the vacuum bag bleach girl.

12:23 - AZN is terrrrrrible.

12:25 - No, seriously, you've gotta see those vacuum bags. That's my favorite.

12:28 - Blayne is in the bottom 3. His dress is hideous (think diaper), but if he leaves I'm going to be really upset.

Commercials.

12:29 - Vacuum girl won! It was really really good. She's my favorite.

12:30 - Blayne was 3rd from bottom. Good.

12:30 - AZN vs. elder rocker. WHO WILL LOSE!?

12:31 - AZN is gone. Poor guy.

The end.

  3. the moment the dude starts working on his, you know he's gone. this episode is definitely worth watching (even with the ending given away) because you have to pick favorites early.

  5. If you told me after the first five minutes that Stella wasn't going home, I wouldn't have believed you.

    Isn't it weird that half of this season's contestants' names start with J or K? Jennifer, Jerell, Jerry, Joe, Keith, Kelli, Kenley, and Korto.

    Kelli's dress was awesome, and the Solo cup dress was neat, but otherwise that was an underwhelming first challenge.

    Also, don't go to the Bravo web site if you don't want to be spoiled. It basically tells you what the challenges are for every episode this season.

  6. jonah: i know! i saw that list of future challenges. i had to look away immediately and blindly paw at the mouse until i'd clicked away.

    anne: i didn't think he should have gone home on the first challenge for something that... unique. it was ugly, yes, but it was special.
