WARNING: SPOIL ALERT. SPOILERS FOR PROJECT RUNWAY, SEASON SIX. DO NOT READ ON IF YOU HAVE NOT READ MOST RECENT EPISODES.
Bravo has become one of my favorite channels.
This is not because of their numerous tacky reality shows that I refuse to watch (read: Real Housewives, no matter how much acclaim EW gives you), but rather, instead of Top Chef but moreso Project Runway.
However, Runway moved to Lifetime, so while fans (read: Sarah, as she doesn't have Bravo) may rejoice at this move, I do not. Fact of the matter: I hate sitting through Lifetime. I don't wanna watch any of their shows (excluding Drop Dead Diva, which is cute and funny. But moving on.). And their movies are lame. That network is just full of lame. It should be called Lametime.
But you know, I have faith in Project Runway. I've loved that show ever since I discovered it freshman year, winter break. They were showing season 2, and wham bam, I fell in love. I've always been casually interested in fashion design, but Runway has cemented that interest. I'm not seriously considering becoming a fashion designer, but I do definitely want to make some clothes sometime (but first, I need to learn to sew).
However, season six has become a huge disappointment. That's not to say they don't have their fair share of talented designers, they do. I love many of them! It's hard to pick a true favorite (okay, okay, mine's Althea), as there are so many other talented ones (Carol Hannah, Christopher, Epperson, Louise, Ra'mon, Shirin). However, the challenges are far from difficult. The hardest challenge to date would probably be the newspaper challenge, and really, that isn't even that difficult considering when season 3 had to deal with recyclables and season 2 with plants.
Finally, they keep on eliminating good designers! Okay, I realize, when you eliminate someone, it's because their outfit that week was bad. I won't contest that. But can't you take their whole body of work into consideration? I mean, really, Ra'mon? Ra'mon is kickass. I can somewhat understand Louise and Epperson (Louise is too subtle and somewhat conservative, Epperson is kickass but that outfit was kinda bad). But this week, the bottom 3 were Logan, Christopher, and Shirin. Admittedly Chris and Shirin did mess up but LOGAN IS A WORSE DESIGNER. He's cute, true, but so is Chris and Shirin. WHY SEND SHIRIN HOME?
As of now, I would love to see Nicolas go home but as he's doing fairly well I don't see this being a possibility anytime soon. He's quite annoying. He just... He needs to go. I'm serious.
As for Gordana, I mean, okay, she's doing better, but I still doubt her abilities as a designer.
And I only don't like Irina because she has personality issues. And okay, sometimes, I don't like her designs. But still.
Project Runway, please stop sending the better designers home until you send home these 3. And Logan. kthxbai.

who wants Ra'mon and Shirin back!
