And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

And the week she correctly diagnosed why an item looked odd, the other judge disagreed, then he genuflected to her when he was proven wrong. Everyone wants to squee and hug her, I think.

Her being baffled by the word snickerdoodle was adorable.

Loved seeing Michael Kors back on the PR judging panel. He was on point with his critiques.

I'm very happy with this final four. I might have wanted to switch out Rick because his aesthetic I just find a little bit boring, but I really don't know for whom. I'm still pulling for Laurence with Roberi as my second choice, but I could understand an Erin win.

He really was terrific. Made me miss him more in retrospect.

I want Laurence to win, but I am looking forward to seeing all 4 runway shows. Should be good!

New anglophilic pleasure - Penelope Keith touring the villages of the U.K. (since she's going up to Scotland at some point). Lovely scenery and she can be amusing.

Oh, I like Penelope Keith, if she's the woman who was in To the Manor Born and who plays posh people in the comedies.

Kind of underwhelmed by the PR final runways and would not have picked the winner the judges ended up with.

Me three. I was disappointed by all of the collections. I loved Laurence's, of course, but it was ordinary clothes. Beautiful clothes that I would wear in a heartbeat (except for the backless stuff), but I would have hoped that there would be more of a "wow factor"

Agreed. She had some great details but no spectacle. While Erin was all spectacle without, if you ask me, much design. Roberi, I just could not get past that opalescent/translucent/gift basket wrapper looking fabric. I don't even know what he was trying for with that but it did not work for me. Honestly, Rik's collection might have been my favorite, he really pulled it together and some of his pieces did make me go "wow".
