wordplayLOST: OMG the island touched me in the bad place and stole my unders! OMG, that's right, remember there was a polar bear on this show, like, two years ago?! OMG let's build sweat lodges! OMG we have space-time discontinuities and electromagnetic anomalies! OMG why do we CARE if Kate loves Sawyer?
What the fuck is this show about? Should I still be asking this question in the third season? Remember when that was the appeal, that we couldn't even tell what genre it was meant to be and the confusion was fun? Yeah, that's pretty much over - now I'm just crabby.
PROJECT RUNWAY: Aww, Jeffrey is all weepy. I really liked the pacing of the finale this season - the real draw of PR for me is watching these people who are so gifted and the passion of their work and ambition. The finale last year was so tense and just BUSY - there was so much work for them to do with the 13th look and I'm guessing that the editing down to two hours must have been a nightmare. I MUCH prefer watching them all starry-eyed at Bryant Park and focusing on the drama of the shows rather than the manufactured drama of another challenge. And besides that, how awesome was it to see Chloe and Danny V watching the shows? ♥
I swear to god, these woobies. Love 'em.
Oh, right, the clothes?
+ OK, I like Jeffrey's collection and LOVE LOVE LOVE the green stripe, because I am perverse that way.
+ Uli's stuff - I love the palette, but I have to say that I am not feeling the circa 1976 look and that closure that's, like, a clip over the boobs? See, I actually HAVE breasts, and that? Not a good look. I get what Michael Kors is saying about the colors, because if you look at that collection, it's like 6 neutral pieces and 6 pieces, each in a different color. But I kind of LIKE that about it.
+ Laura designed... a lot of cocktail dresses in black and nude. They're all great dresses - there wasn't a one that I didn't care for - but, like, why? I mean, I guess we shouldn't really be surprised that Laura appears to believe that you can construct an entire wardrobe out of black cocktail dresses, but... yeah.
+ Michael: WTF? This all looks v. Frederick's of Hollywood to me and, like, gross. Not so much with the big vinyl belts, ew.
So my winner? Jeffrey. I think his work is just really INTERESTING. I'm really, really glad the judges agreed with me. I know he was an absolute JACKASS on occasion, but talent carries a lot for me, and I just think he's the more talented. *shrug*
Good season.
Also? Angela and her whiny, passive-aggressive mother are somewhere pissed off. Pissed off and covered in fleurchons. :-P
TOP CHEF note: Marcel and Stephen: separated at birth, reunited in Las Vegas. Seriously, can't you see those bitches sitting around and dissing other chefs' food? Also, Marcel has hair like a fleur-de-lis - it's certainly a look, but give that boy a hairnet. However, boy with emo glasses, Ilan? Way cute!
