If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, I think booting Chris was a mistake, and really just an odd choice.

Punishingly Intricate

Jesse, that Jack/Dale news totally made my day. thank you.

I don't understand how Ricky has survived the last 3 episodes, really. Hasn't he always been in the bottom? Chris jacket was stupid but Ricky's offenses, both design and leadership-wise, were way more egregious.

Victorya pissed me off a lot.

And I still love Christian.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

ProjectRunway Canada - episode 2 I thought the losing dress wasn't that bad, I thought Megan's was worse, and I don't understand how someone with such poor sewing skills could be on one of these shows. They had that problem in S1 of PR, but I thought they'd closed the loop on that. I wonder if the judges will hold the decision by the woman with immunity against her in the future, because she was way too obvious about not caring.

Episode 3 I hate Bratz dolls. The show wasn't as smooth on the editing about who was going to go, anytime someone starts thinking they are safe and getting a lot of air time saying that, it's definitely a bad sign for them. The losing outfit was boring. The one woman, Michel, I think, was docked points for the slit being too high and therefore too sexy but the winning outfit looked super sexy as well.

PRC - Actually - when the judges really loved that dress by Lucian that I thought was a trainwreck - I figured that I'd not be able to get what they were looking for.

But I really enjoyed the challenge in episode two although when they introduced the "twist" - I thought - they did this in PR Classic, didn't they? I kind of loved how so many of the outfits showed their lineage as umbrellas but that the one buy who did the slick mini - had his model carry the umbrella frame as a reference. I figure that both Luther and Megan are elimination fodder and it will be her time soon. (Unless the non-sewing thing is more a matter of "haven't sewn in a while" rather than "don't know how to sew at all.")

And I really love Iman. She is so severe.

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

I thought Chris's dress this time looked very similar to the dress he made for the first challenge, and I thought he would run into the "too costumey" problem in the future, which is what happened here. I liked him personally, though. The color/fabric for his team's work was really, really indefensible.

Christian doesn't bug me as much as he did at the beginning, but in this ep he said, (paraphrasing): "I named our team 'Star', because we're hot...like celebrities!" Good thing you clarified there, hon. Otherwise I would have confused your team name with the hottest objects in the universe.
