Project Runway

I'm really loving Project Runway this season, especially after the disappointment that was season 4. Overall, I think there is a better selection of contestants and a better set of challenges that are more fun and require more ingenuity. I mean.... last night's challenge of using car parts, seriously genius! Yes it was a giant product placement for Saturn, but unlike last season's product whoring, the challenge wasn't meant to service the product - I don't know if that makes sense? Like, the Levi's challenge was make an oufit that represents the Levi's company, or the wrestling challenge that was meant to represent the female wrestlers. The object of the Saturn challenge was not to make an oufit representing the car or inspired by the car, it was just to use the pieces of the car.....yeah. My three favorite designs were actually the same three the judges picked - Leanne's, Korto's, and Jerrell's. The outfits looked as if they could be couture garmets from Paris. And thank god they got rid of Keith. He was kind of hot, except for that stupid rat tail which I wanted to rip off with my bare hands, and he was kind of interesting, in that you could tell there was a whole boatload of crazy just under the surface, but seriously he became such a douche. Over the course of the season, my three favorite designers have come to be Korto, Leanne, and Terri. Most likely one of them will be the winner, and I think that probably all three will make it to the top 4 along with Straight-Guy Joe. Although I fear Terri might not make it, since she hasn't been getting the wins she deserved .....hello, her drag oufit was brilliant. But yeah.
