Sure. Without a series of inexplicable Nick saves, they might've had to go through the back half of the season with no white men at all. What kind of competition would that be?

I would love to see reactions from any of the many, many people who've been booted for under-seasoning.

I did not! What did I miss?

The challenge was to make a Rock God character that was becoming one with a guitar - they were provided the guitars as inspiration. The winning look was super weird but pretty cool and an interesting idea, and the other top look was really great. I thought you might have a more educated opinion than I can manage...

TC this season was a JOKE. Fucking Nick, man.

I know it didn't work out for her in the end, but I kind of appreciated the portrayal of the woman having the panic attack on Face Off. "Are you OK?" "No." and it taking her some time to work through, but working through it. And in the end, the issue was her concept, not having lost worktime or anything.

I agree with all that. Her partner impressed me, too. Before this episode I only liked him for his hair.

Also, I love how pretty much whenever anyone has to go home they talk about what they are going to do next with what they've learned from being in the competition or what they're going to work on.

Good job, Face Off producers! On both counts, right? They must be prompted on those exit interviews.

Gotta figure, yeah.

I finally started watching Under the Gunn, and I really like it! It could use more Tim Gunn, but couldn't everything? I don't think I really get how the competition will work, but the mentor's picking designers for their teams has been riveting so far.

And it reminded me how much I like Mondo's clothes, so I'm getting myself this dress [link] for my birthday. Whee!

I am digging Face Off this season. The casting is pretty good.
