I agree that Ricky is probably due for elimination.

Yeah, I just rewatched all four fashion shows and, even though I didn't love anything Chris did except for his first dress (which was gorgeous), Ricky has been in the bottom in almost all of them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ricky bugged me all during the episode because I could not figure out who he reminded me of! Every time they showed his face I had a strong but vague recollection of someone on television. I think it is Glenn Fitzgerald (Brian Darling on Dirty Sexy Money).

Art Crawl!!!

No, Glenn Fitzgerald is MUCH MUCH BETTER. Ricky is a poor subsitute for Glenn Fitzgerald.

Oh, I adore the Fitzgerald, fear not. I watched Series 7 because he was in it, even though I thought it was not that good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love Jack and hope nothing horrible happens to him. He's so pretty!

In real life, he's currently fine and dating Dale from Top Chef, so whatever it was, it apparently wasn't a long-term crisis thing.

On Top Chef, yay Tiff! Also, I rolled my eyes so hard when that one white lady was like, "Well, I wouldn't have mac and cheese at my family holiday,.... I like the spaetzle."

Also, I'm starting to really like Christian as a Project Runway character. With his nutty confidence and his "fierce" and his crazy hair.

Oh! I love knowing this. Yay!

Also, yay Tiff! Although my boy Tre is stymied again. Man, he can cook. Pretty much anything he puts on a plate, I'm all, serve it up.

I am right there with you on PR, Jesse. I loved Christian's exuberance. He is having such fun -- that whole team was great. Although I wish they'd chosen a rock & roll theme to unify their collection. Serioiusly, zoot suit, pleather, fringe?

His hair looks like a photo I have of myself all dolled up to go to my Congressman's office during our eighth grade Washington DC trip. Except that mine looked like that because it was all in a perky high side ponytail all spiky, and his just looks like that.

I'm kinda a fan of Rami and Kit. Oh, and Jack, I like some of the stuff Jack has done.

Tre's stuff always sounds delicious, but his overabundance of protein means his menu is probably one of the last I would have chosen as a three-course meal.

Jack&Dale4eva! That is a lot of adorable in one photo.

Yeah, Tre is big on the proteins, eh? I never know what would be appropriate for a Top Chef three course meal. It seems like they waffle on what they want.

Part of it is in their goals, I think. I think a perfectly nice three course meal would be a salad, poultry, and a fruit & cheese plate. But since two of those three things don't involve cooking, they'd never fly on the show.
