"La la la la la, I can't hear you," he cried

Posted by: Nic on: 02.24.2010

I wonder how sick Tim Gun is of the phrase “make it work.” It’s a very reasonable and encouraging piece of advice that is uttered by the interviewer  in (or used somewhere in the text of) almost every Tim Gunn interview I’ve read. If I’m sick of reading it, how must he feel? That being [...]

You could knock me over with a feather

Holy crap, y’all! Tim Gunn was Irina’s teacher when she was at Parsons!!! How did I not know this? I know that I haven’t paid a TON of attention to the (later) episodes of this season, but I’m fairly certain that this wasn’t mentioned. I have to say that he did a good job of [...]

The Sky is the Limit

Every week, I watch Project Runway later and later. It used to be that on Thursdays, when it aired, I would give my Tivo a twenty minute head start and then start to watch. Then I began to watch on Fridays. Then it was Saturday, then Sunday. It’s now Monday, and I’m just now getting [...]

Lights, Camera, Sew!

Posted by: Nic on: 09.27.2009

It took me a few days to get to this week’s Project Runway. Apologies! This episode starts of with some of the male contestants talking, both amongst themselves and individually in the interview room. Ra’mon observes that the apartment is quieter with both Malvin and Johnny gone, and interviews that he feels that things are [...]

Fashion Headlines

Week 5 of Project Runway opens in the apartment that Qristyl left. The remaining residents mention how it’s now quieter. I am not surprised about that. Then, in another apartment, Johnny starts to emote about being in the bottom three last week. He never wants to be there again!! Really? Why ever not, Johnny? I [...]

Loaded Gunn

Posted by: Nic on: 09.06.2009

It’s no secret that I love Tim Gunn. Like, love. He’s the best. And now a whole new group, comic book readers, will get a chance to love Tim Gunn, too. Enter Loaded Gunn, a comic book series where Tim Gunn rescues the world from horrible clothes. Tim Gunn is the best sport ever: “Most [...]

Things Fall Apart

Posted by: Nic on: 09.05.2009

Rumble on the  Runway – This is the first episode this season where the designers had to work in groups, so I knew that all of the goodwill of previous weeks was about to go the way of the dinosaur. This episode begins with a recap of last week, and then shows some of the [...]

The Tim Gunn bobble head doll.

Even better than the "real woman" challenge

Posted by: Nic on: 08.28.2009

Project Runway week 2 – I’m writing this as I watch the episode, so don’t judge me for my use of the present tense! I don’t know why, but I really like this group of designers. They’re not bitchy yet, and they seem really happy to be with each other and still in the competition. [...]

Showdown at Bryant Park

Posted by: Nic on: 10.15.2008

The Project Runway season 5 finale aired tonight, on the same night as the final presidential debate. I don’t know what to say, other than that whoever schedules the debates should be fired. You should not force the electorate to choose between two viable options. Thankfully, in this election, television is the only venue where [...]
