Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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

SYTYCD - watching live, but it was interrupted by Commander Cheeto (not that I watched). But, isn't it going to be a disadvantage for the dancers who were to have performed during the cheeto message.

That said, I love Kaylee, Mark and Dassy.

Mark Kanemura choreographed an amazing opening number to RuPaul's "Call Me Mother"

Because books.

SYTYCD: I'm loving this season. So many good dancers. Logan and Kiki are two of my favorites, but I also love Taylor.

Project Runway: Lots of fun this season, but the twins are driving me insane (the way I guess they're supposed to).

I don't know why, but I hate Kiki. I was really unhappy that he made it. I love both Mark and Kaylee.

Thrive to spite them

I'm really hoping the twins fegwt disqualified. I don't know why the producers haven't stepped in. If there weren't 2 of them the designs wouldn't get finished

I just started this season of PR, and I love the "model mirror" thing.

Ooh, somehow completely forgot about SYTYCD. Maybe I can binge it sometime...

Also irrationally pleased about the JC Penney accessory wall.

I don't love the backstage- bits.

Happy with the first runway. Mostly liked the clothes and totes agree with the winner. Not mad about the Auf either, although I actually kinda liked that dress.

PR: The model mirror thing is nice -- much better than the model competition thing they tacked on for a few seasons. And I don't mind the backstage bits! But that stuff always fascinates me.

Aaron always seemed to be in so far over his head. And I what I like about his personal style is what makes his designs problematic -- he dresses completely uniquely, without committing to one particular gender, and it works for him. But his designs don't commit, either, and because they're never a mix of elements (like glasses, hair, slip-dress, shoes, for instance), it just reads as confused and sort of limp.

Woohoo, I found some illegal postings of GBBO on you tube! One was only quarter size but the most recent one (bread week!) is normal.

I don't mind the new Mary, but am not so fond of the new Mel and Sue
