Because books.

Wait, who didn't know how to use a sewing machine? I must have missed that -- I watched the whole shebang, even the intro hour, so I did wander in and out at some points before the runway.

I am so glad to see Michael Kors is back next week, though.

I think it was Sue? I just remember being appalled. It wasn't clear if she didn't know how to use a machine at all, or just hadn't used a Brother machine and got confused, but either way it seems like something you would maybe try before going on the show. But I guess she figured it out well enough.

Is Michael Kors back as a judge full time or just next week for a Michael Kors challenge? I wasn't really paying attention to all the upcoming stuff.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Is the ep online yet? I totally forgot PR was starting up again!

I saw it on Amazon, but I can't remember if it was free with Prime or not.

Yay! I could use a palate cleanser after the Breaking Bad binge I've been on.

I saw, btw, in some of the Cory Monteith articles, confirmation that Glee Project is not going to happen again. Can I just say that the one season of that I watched was better than the last three seasons of Glee combined?? OMG.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I watched the episode (I got busy when it first aired)...

I cannot believe they kept labia-boy in the competition. to me that was the clearest auf I have ever seen. They got rid of the woman who they think should have made pants, but homeboy over here made a dress that literally could not be worn in public. And you kept him?

From the previews for the season, it is pretty clear to me why they kept labia-boy, and I'll leave it at that.

They didn't even talk about it! That poor model. At least she had plenty of accessories to dangle in front of her crotch.

I feel like Timothy's dress was the equivalent of a contemporary dancer getting some Travis Wall choreo for the first round and falling off the stage. So I would have sent him home.

I just realized, I meant to keep an eye out for the designer who likes netting and no slips that scared Tim in the audition and see what she came up with. Maybe next challenge. Although I have forgotten which one she was. I think Alexander Pope was my favorite based on the audition pieces, by the way. That plaid thing with the sleeves, I really liked that.

Helen is the one who scared Tim. She seems very intent on proving how badass she is.

Bradon's dress was my favorite. I honestly didn't think the auf'd dress was bad either.
