ANTM: I really can't believe that Tootie will win. It is to laugh. And her photo was busted. Where's Janice when you need to tell someone they look like they have a penis? As much as I hate to say it, I almost have to pull for Jenah, ratty weave and all.

PR: Loved the challenge last night! I really liked both Rami, Jillian, and Kevin's and Jack and Christian's collections (and Christian's team seemed to be the only team that had any fun doing the challenge). I thought the dresses that Victorya and Ricky made were both butt ugly (although I did kinda like Elisa's). At least Victorya's fit well (which, she was decent enough to acknowledge, was thanks to Ricky). I really thought Ricky was a goner after two street weeks of bad construction and a first week of boring. I really only hated Chris' design from his team. I loved Sweet Pea's dress and I didn't hate Marion's outfit. But their collection really did not hang together at all.

I thought that was less about being decent and more about strategy. If Ricky had ratted her out, she would have looked horrible. As it was, she was hoping to look gracious to the judges.

Yeah, I think she thought carefully about what to say and how to say it.

Not a very attractive side of her on display last night.

nope. I dislike her a lot now. And no one is going to want to work with her on any team challenge

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I was so pissed that they booted Chris! Ricky and Steven I would not miss, but I loved Chris.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Well, even if she did it to be calculating, it was more than what others would have done. And in her side interview, even before she got onto the runway, she admitted that while she had been reluctant to hear Ricky's POV, after looking at it, she realized that he was right. She's not been a favorite of mine, so I wasn't sad to see her go. And she was a nightmare as a team member. But Ricky was a really bad leader, too, so . . .

I thought Chris was very sweet, but I thought his outfit was horrible. I did love his very first dress (the long purple one), but I can't remember anything else he's made and that's not good. I would've been fine with either him or Ricky leaving. I don't think either Ricky or Marion are long for this world.

On Top Chef, still love Trey. That's all.

Wait, what?

Whoops. Meant Ricky or Steven. Ricky because he's had, what, two or three weeks in a row now with the dreaded "bad construction" label? And the first week, his signature piece was labeled "boring" by Nina. Steven because I honestly cannot remember anything he's done to date. I remember tonight's dancewear inspired outfit because that was, what, all of an hour ago? I remember he teamed with Marion on that horrid sweater monstrosity. Could not tell you what else he's made.

I want to know what the drama with Jack is all about. I love Jack and hope nothing horrible happens to him. He's so pretty!

Art Crawl!!!

I agree that Ricky is probably due for elimination. How many weeks in a row of bad construction can last?

TC- loved the format and the outcome! Glad that Tif has a restaurant in the works. (I saw it Wednesday night at 11 pm central.)
