DISQUS

newcritics: Project Runway: My hope for sequins

  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Gentlepeople, start your sewing machines!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Is Ricky crying yet?
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    No midgets! Just teens!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Ha! I love that the kids choose the designers!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Don't forget, it has to be made of material that you can easily get tears, wine coolers, and vomit out of.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Was anyone's prom the most important day in their life??
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    And... it has to come off like a prom dress!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Mine was most certainly not. Who wants to peak at 17?
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Chris is in his element.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    I'm loving Kevin!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    My prom wasn't even the most important day of that year.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I *love* that Christian gets a difficult client! HAHAHA! And they are practically peers anyway.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Why do you go to prom if you don't plan to lose your virginity?
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Brando- I don't know if you know this, but I have bought the rights to you. I now own all you say. :)
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Maybe Christian will lose his virginity during this challenge. He's 11 isn't he??
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Where are my sequins, dammit??
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    TLB just called me to tell me that there was a hostile takeover for my intellectual property.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Little happy Ricky tears? Nostalgia tears? Perhaps?
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Wow! He cries in the first 12 minutes.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Ricky crying -- DRINK!!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    It wasn't hostile Brando... just a wise money move.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    They are rocking the MacGyver action music tonight.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    I so want to see the teen overpower Christian.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Since Christian is getting all of this attention, you know he's going to pull it off well in the end. I'm sure he will go on to annoy me more.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    They are rocking the MacGyver action music tonight.

    They are! LOL!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Jennifer, you should know that Brando, Ltd. is under investigation for accounting irregularities.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Claire- your annoyance would probably be more entertaining than this season so far.

    Brando- who isn't under investigation?
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Christian may be the most unlikable PR contestant ever. At least Santino could do a funny Tim Gunn impersonation.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    I want one of the models to bag on the runway action so that Christian will have to don the dress ala Austin Scarlet and his USPS outfit.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    I did like the candy challenge last week. That was my favorite episode so far.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Bravo has some really, really dumb ideas for shows.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    That was fun, but this season is missing something... I'm not sure what.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Brando- your next top 11 post... new shows on Bravo.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Amen Brando! At least Santino was funny.

    But I am SO happy Christian is doing the beadwork. HA!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    I wanted to look like an Italian divorcee for my prom!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Hahaha! I love the mothers came too!!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    I don't want my baby looking like she's having a baby!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Victorya's dress looks so much better.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Half of this season's contestants just seem tranquilized.

    HA! I'm loving Chris!!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I love that Christian hates that she hates it, but he hates it too.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    It's the Jeffrey-mom incident all over again!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Any time Christian is displeased I am happy.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I'm loving Chris too.

    I love Sweet P's dress. She has no worries this round, I think. (Who knows, I'm usually wrong about that stuff.)
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Rami's dress looks just like the first one he made. Only green.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Christian's dress kind of looks like a parade float... or a root beer float.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Sparkle time.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    BTW, I talked with my friend today. She temped for Elle recently and met Nina Garcia. How cool is that? I'm one person from Nina Garcia!!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Smell YOU, Claire!
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Good point about Romi.

    And LOL at the root beer float.

    Tim needs to throw the Christian tags into the sea.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Christian is SO CHILDISH! Pouting so that everyone will tell him he's so great. ACK!

    Oh, it's not going my way, so I'm going to give up. WHOA IS ME.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Double LOL at root beer float.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Claire, that means the Nina Garcia is practically reading our comments.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Christian got the perfect client!!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Someone's got to read our comments. :)
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    I know, where's our audience? They don't know what they are missing.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Oh Nina, if you're out there! We love you! :) (Or I do.)
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Seriously. But, hey! Brando! I'm so glad you're our new regular! It's better with Brando.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Hello? Hello? Hello??
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    It is better with Brando.

    Wow! Christian shaves?!?
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    It's Better With Brando should be my tagline.
  • Jim Tourtelott · 1 year ago
    You know, after weeks of ragging on Christian, I actually feel like coming to his defense. Am I having a Hillary in New Hampshire moment?
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I can't help it. I like Ricky. Tears and all.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    LOL at Ricky making his girlfriend's prom dress.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Ricky's fabric is the color of his tears...
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Loving these old prom pics.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    They are so right about the Catholic school thing. 12 years warped me into the twisted person I am.

    Why do I have a feeling Chris once had Flock of Seagulls hair?
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    I wonder if they'll model the dress on the backseats of a car.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    HAHA - Jennifer.

    Chris is right - not hemming is a bad idea Kevin.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Is Christian going to win??
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    How could Kevin not know they will be looking at the hem? Nina Garcia can spot a stray stitch from four miles above the troposphere.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Claire- you're right, Rami's does look like his first one.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    No way Christian wins.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Jim - I think Christian begs too much for sympathy for me to give him any.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Christian hasn't cried yet either.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Hasn't Kevin already been called out for not finishing? (That pin in his vest for the ex-football player?)
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Does Diane Keaton even read the scripts she gets anymore?
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Oh! You're right.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Brando- I don't think she does. It's sad.

    FYI- Your wife left a comment at my place saying she has your intellectual property by the short hairs...
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    I think someone gets hammered every show for shoddy finishing. You can make an ugly dress but if its immaculately made you'll get a pass. If you have a great design that's not quite done, Michael Kors gives you a paddling.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Brando - seriously. How bad does that movie look?
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Let's make a female generational bank heist movie.

    Admittedly, it's probably not as bad as Space Cowboys.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Oh wow, I hate Ricky's dress. BLAHSVILLE.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Ricky's dress is not the best color.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Rami's dress would be great if this was for Desperate Housewives.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Michael Kors gives you a paddling

    HA!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Yes, Brando. I can see Teri Hatcher in one of his dresses.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Sweet P rebounds after last week's fiasco.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    And they notice the hem!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I love Sweet P's and Victorya's dresses.

    HAHAHA! The paddling of Kevin!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    It's going to be hard to get vomit out of those gemstones.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Isn't Nina wearing the same color as Kevin's dress that she just criticized the color of?
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Oh! Nina calls out Christian!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    It's WAY immature for Christian to start out blaming the client. I'm glad Nina called him on it.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Rami - chill. You're not going home. He bores me, though.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    And the only straight man looks like he might be gone.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    I love you Nina.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    My bets are on Ricky going home, but it could be anyone.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Was Ricky crying?

    I wonder if Kevin is going.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    I think it's Kevin. Cheap+bad design+bad construction usually means you're going home.

    But the comment about Ricky always sucking could mean he's leaving on a wave of tears.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Oh my, that would be a lot of tears.
  • Jim Tourtelott · 1 year ago
    I think they're going to give Ricky something to cry about.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    If you're Levi's and you want to make a commercial about how awesome your clothes are, it should be a commercial where people DON'T want to take them off, even to have sex.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Ricky will probably get his own show on Bravo.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Yeah, Jim, that dress was pretty bad. Color was completely wrong at that poofy bottom looked like prom was already over and she was getting home at 7 a.m.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    LOL @ Brando.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    People want to take RAMI to the prom? Ugh. I think I'd rather go with Christian - at least we could stand in a corner and bitch about other people.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Ouch! We only liked two!

    Ah, poor Sweet P.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Victorya definitely deserved to win.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Tears of joy for Ricky!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Bad hems lose every time!
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    SAD. I really liked Kevin as a designer.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Ouch. They are so brutal with their comments.

    Right choice. Kevin's dress was bad and he ignored the most obvious advice in the universe.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Oooh, people are pissed. Can't wait.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Next week looks interesting.
  • Claire Helene · 1 year ago
    Later people, thanks for playing tonight! See you next week!
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Yeah, I don't think people got irked enough earlier enough in the season.
  • Brando · 1 year ago
    Good times tonight. Next week should be fun. Maybe Christian stabs one of the models with his scissors.
  • Jennifer Krentz · 1 year ago
    Later!
  • dancinfool · 1 year ago
    Living on the west coast, I never get a chance to live blog - y'all wrap it up just about the time PR runs at 10PM PST.

    However, "Root Beer Float" goes down as the best comment of the night.

    You're welcome.
