Project Runway last night...

I believe it is biased because Santino should have been sent home last week but he is great for ratings so he stays. The designers really aren't judged on that week's assignment if this is the case.

lori
I'm no fan of the guy (Santino), but I didn't have any problem with Daniel Franco going home last week. His "line" of lingerie was terrible. And until then Santino had been their best designer. They generally give you credit for past performances, and I think they should. Other shows (like Apprentice) that get rid of people on a subjective basis work the same way.

And I agree with the Big Brother season 1 example. Once you get rid of all the troublemakers and showoffs, you've got a pretty boring show.
 
I like Santino and Nick the best. I do not like Santinos attitude when he does not finish 1st all the time(the eye rolling and all). Last night I liked Santinos design better and even though I liked Nicks as well it was more of "I have seen this before" While I would not wear something like Santino designed (don't have the body for that type)I did think it was unique.
 
I think Santino's signature design of "smushed up" fabric, for lack of a better description and overembellilshment is getting old for me. I lost what very little respect I had for Hilton when she chose his design. Nick's dress was waaaaay more sophisticated, but then again, is "sophistication" the look that Hilton was looking for? Maybe not.

My favorite dress was Daniel V.'s dress (the one with the wild print). It fit the model perfectly, showing off her figure well and I liked the way he made it work when he realized that he didn't have enough fabric. I'm not a sewer, but I would think it would be harder to design and sew a dress with patterns on the fabric and make it look beautiful and IMO, Daniel V. did a great job.

I think Marla should have been let go. At least Guadalupe showed some originality, even though her design choice was questionable. I do have to hand it to her; her design was true to her style. Marla, on the other hand, is clueless about her sense of style and it's getting more difficult for me to watch her struggle through.

BTW, on the Project Runway website, they're auctioning off the dresses and the bid on Nick's dress is currently $200+ higher than Santino's. :)

I also agree that Santino should have been let go last week for the lack of leadership, respect and teamwork he displayed, but I'm sure that the producers are keeping him around for ratings and drama.
 
Me and the kids gather around the tv every Wednesday night at 10pm. We got hooked in the first season and loved hating Wendy. Now we have Santino. He is definitely a ratings boost and I have a feeling that Nina Garcia would like to knock him down a few pegs. There is no love loss between the two of them. Give him credit though, he totally sold himself to Nicky Hilton. The guy showed up to the party in stilleto heels, with his business card. How could he not make an impression? If the regular judges were the ones to pick the winner, I think it would have gone to either Nick or Daniel V.

I'm pretty surprised that Marla has made it this far, but maybe they are hoping to see some spark. Guadalupes clothes were borderline crazy and I think she just went over the edge on this last challenge.

Someone else mentioned Marla's model, Cara. Would someone please give the girl a sandwich??? She just looks sickly.

Any predictions on the final 3? I can't get it down below 4, but my picks right now are Chloe, Daniel V., Nick, Santino.

Happy viewing.
 

Santino is going to stay. He's half the reason we watch. :earboy2: We have to have someone to hate or else where's the fun? He's like Kara from last season. The one who wins everything. :rolleyes2 Poor Marla. But she must of had -something- or else she wouldn't of made it on the show in the first place. I think she's in just a bit over her head.
 
Ugh, I can't stand Santino. He thinks he's all that and he's not. He may have talent, but not enough to go along with that ego of his.

I did like Daniel Franco though. I thought he had talent and was very genuine. Too bad he's gone though.

Nicky Hilton---yuck! She looked bored, annoyed.....anything but nice. She showed up to this party in jeans and a t shirt........I just thought she showed NO class. My impression of her really took a nose dive.
I think you are giving her too much credit. She showed up in jeans and a sweater that I disntictly remember DJ wearing on an Episode of Full House. I think she could have tried a little harder.

I love the show of course, and as much as I was suprised Marla didn't get thrown off, I think it was really because the dress guadalupe designed was more in line with Avril Lavigne or someone. SHe didn't think NY megazillionaire, socialite. Did anyone catch Nikki saying that she was designing her own line with braid around the bust? Hello why didn't she wear her own dress to the party.

I don't believe any of the celebrity, in her case just famous for being a socialite, actually does any of their own designing.

I am sure Santino and Nick will make it to the finals. Santino knows how to scmooze, he'll end up famous no matter what.

I think Kevin from last season has actually designed stuff for Heidi Klum and others.

Chloe: It looks like Stevie Nicks

Diana: Whats Stevie Nick?

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I love Dirty Diana!!!!!!!!!

The Stevie Nicks dialog was classic. :rotfl:

That and Nick's rodeo comment.
 
Marla should have been ousted. :sad2:

Usually on Project Runway "creativity gone bad" trumps "no creativity".

I would have enjoyed (or at least been curious) to see more Lupe designs.

I thought Nicky looked nicer than I've ever seen her on Project Runway :rotfl2: :rolleyes: I've seen her act super rude on so many occasions...I can't wait for when she and her sister are has-beens...In the last few weeks I heard about Nicky calling Mischa Barton a "fat pig" because Barton was seeing an ex-boyfriend of Kim Stewart, and Paris (when shopping with Lindsay Lohan) was asked by paparrazzi by there weren't 20 photographers taking pictures of Hillary Swank (who'd been in the same store a week earlier w/o the paparrazzi trail) Paris replied, "Hillary's ugly." My ex is in the entertainment industry so I'm (unfortunately) always hearing this petty stuff, but neither girls seem to have any perspective on kindness, compassion, or what's important to being a quality human being (and I think Swank is beautiful, by the way--not that it's an issue!) :wave:
 
The big news is that Santino DIDN'T win. That Chloe did, really surprized me, I thought it was Daniel's show, except for when his model tripped on her dress. Other than that, his lines were crisp and clean. Santino's were pretty but nothing I haven't already seen in stores everywhere.

Santino made for good TV. That's why they kept him over Daniel (the first one).
