"We have trust issues." Mylar

I hadn't watched PR in forever and randomly caught the first episode last night. I was pleasantly surprised! There are people that I actually really like. And those people turned out to be good designers. And the aufing was wholly warranted. I cheered! Set my DVR for it and errythang.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

It it still an hour and a half? I gave up on PR when they made it that long. Too much padding.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yes, it's still an hour and a half, and this week there was also a one hour road to the runway, which is what we watched last night along with the two hour finale of Master Chef, which was disappointing.

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

I just hate Zac Posen so much. He's annoying and superficial, and he is not as clever as Michael Kors.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Zac Posen is pretty useless on the panel. He and Heidi get into a lot of "That's so pretty. I would wear that" moments rather than giving relevant critiques. I definitely miss the Duchess and his magnificent bitchiness.

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

There have been specific times when I have really appreciated Zac POsen's criticisms, but now I can't remember what they were or why I found them valuable. Construction stuff, maybe? I have noticed that he jumps right into checking out the garment up close when they bring out the top and bottom looks and sometimes something insigtful comes out of that.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Wait, first Mel and Sue, and now Mary? So the only person who'll carry over to Channel 4 version of The Great British Bake Off is Paul Hollywood? [link]

This is not gonna turn out well is it.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Yes, my twitter timeline is full of people expressing shock that the one person to remain with the show is Paul. Shocked, I tell you.

Let's face it, I'll probably still watch it next season. But I'll grumble about it all the way.

Thrive to spite them

Paul Hollywood isn't terrible as a judge but of the 4 he's the one who seems most interchangeable.
