I actually like that we're seeing more of the arguments between the judges, because it makes some of their decisions more understandable.
Isn't Amy the cup-half-full kind of person today?

I still think that Jay's Chrysler-Building-inspired dress is one of the best things ever produced during a non-finale challenge.
It was pretty brilliant.

Well, I try. Heh.
The designers are all so high-drama without the strength to back it up.
This pretty much sums up how I feel about this season.
No amount of potential justifies letting Anthony Ryan get away with that outfit. Since they did two winners, I think they should have done two losers and sent them both home.
I think that he got a sympathy vote for working with Bert. It is one thing to throw another designer under the bus, it is quite another to push the driver out of the seat so that you can back the bus over him a few times. Bert added nasty comments as well as visibly celebrated the judges' criticism of the other designs. Did you make the only wearable design? yes. Were you a nightmare to work with? Yes.
Yes, Bert was awful at judgement, but the editing made it seem like Anthony Ryan was much worse to work with than Bert.
I liked Bert in the first episode, and he certainly made a great garment in that challenge. But I think he's stuck on being "cranky old set-in-my-ways" dude, or he's being edited that way, and I haven't seen one thing from him since the first episode that was remotely as impressive as that little sundress.
I think Kimberly has some promise, too. Otherwise, I'm not blown away at all.
I'm not blown away by any of the designers. I like Kimberly more than I thought I would from the first episode when she was showing her portfolio, but I have to admit that I'm afraid she may have secret taste issues that will start to tell as the season progresses. Those shorts were just a couple inches away from being booty shorts with a leather strap around the bottom. Nobody else really does anything for me.
And I totally agree that many, many of these designers are way too shit don't stink for the level of talent currently on display. Josh and Bert for sure. Anya is a classic secret stank girl and has she actually sewn anything on her own yet? Anthony Ryan is way too high drama and his stuff is middle of the pack at best. Olivier is cute as a basket of kittens and puppies but his designs have not wowed. Embrace some color, for real. The blonde girl just makes ugly clothes that she for some reason thinks are cute. The others are all a blur.
Plus side? Tim looked adorable in jeans and tennis shoes.
A very bad review of Top Chef Spike's pizza place.
Yes, this is another disappointing season for PR. Bright side?
If a dull, fugly design collection wins? It probably won't have been at the cost of an exciting and beautiful collection
