“Project Runway” has been a little off this season, with the exception of amazing guest judges like Christina Aguilera and Milla Jovovich. Is the show’s formula feeling stale the sixth time around? Did the move to Lifetime ruin it? Or is this just the lamest cast ever? Last night, the five contestants were taken to the Getty Center and had to pick a piece of inspiration to base their garment on. Wait, that sounds familiar—didn’t they do that with the Metropolitan Museum of Art a season or two ago?
Regardless of the very open-ended challenge, most of the night’s creations were pretty meh, and the only memorable pithy line from the whole episode was when Tim Gunn told Irina that her fur dress looked like roadkill. (She decided to scrap it and start from scratch.) But here is what did get me excited about last night’s episode. Two contestants were eliminated, bringing it down to the final three who will show at Fashion Week—it’ll be Irina versus Althea versus Carol Hannah. For the second season in a row, the final three contestants are all women. Can they turn it out like eco-friendly LeAnn, amazing Korto, and cat-throwing Kenley did last year? Let’s hope so. I’m pulling for Althea, even though her dress last night looked like crumpled gold foil, because her stuff has consistently been the least bland. Also, she’s not mean like Irina or totally boring like Carol Hannah. Who do you want to win?

I really liked the season until they eliminated Ramon Lawrence, I sooo thought he would be going to Fashion Week and I think if he would have stayed in longer, he would have blown all the other designers out of the water! Even the look that got him eliminated wasn’t horrible, it was confusing, but interesting. I was really, really thrilled that they did not let Christopher got to Fashion Week! All of his designs from the first one that he won, where so blah and he was blah ,I didn’t understand why they kept getting rid of other designers, including hottie Logan, Epperson, and Nicholas (who was so funny) over him! Now I am also rooting for Althea, her 80s hooker-ish look, kinda throws me off, and maybe if i saw her first I wouldn’t be interested in her designs cause her personal style is kinda atrocious, but I think she’s put out some decent designs. Carol Hannah is a bore and Irina is too.

Carol Hannah, Althea, Christopher and Logan where my favorites this whole season so I am happy to seem them make it mostly to the end. I have this feeling Irina is going win and I am not that happy about it.

I thought they eliminated the wrong people so many times this season. It annoyed me, so I stopped watching a couple shows ago. Not entertaining.

Yeah, I have this bad feeling that Irina will win. She is just a bitch and I can’t stand her. I really don’t want Althea to win though. She can’t even wear decent clothes on a day-to-day basis, or know how to style her hair. Why should she design high-fashion?!! Now given, her designs are amazing, but homegirl needs to put herself together.
