Because books.

I loved that we got a "behind-the-scenes" look along with the superfans.

I loved the one -- Susie, I think -- who said "I need vodka" while they were waiting to go out to the runway.

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

But would the casting people even have known about his issues?

Not for nothing, but the homelessness thing should have been a clue to inquire further. People are homeless for all kinds of reasons, certainly. But make some fucking inquiries, will you?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

She's kind of hilarious, both with the contestants and with the focus groups, and for some reason it is just inherently funny to me that she's the focus group expert. I think they could maybe tweak the format a bit, maybe explain more why the flaws that are in the winning products are less fatal than the ones they choose not to develop, but overall I really like that the show is all about showing us the development process. It's just interesting!

I think she was also the one talking about what Nina would say and how Heidi would want the skirt shorter. Awesome! But my favorite thing was how excited they all were to go to Mood.

Yes, Mood! Sara was so jealous. (She was watching with me.)

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

He was being lighthearted, not rude.

I think that they were referring to after Ken had moved out of the way and Alexander stormed into the room and knocked over the hot iron.

Oh! I missed that, sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did anyone watch The Voice last night? I don't think I can do this season, but I'll hang on it on the DVR. (Also who am I kidding? I'm sure I will have time at some point to watch it!)

I did! A kid who goes to West Chester University made it!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I did too! I miss Shakira and Usher, but the vibe between the original 4 coaches seems better this time out, at least so far.
