<p>Set your DVRs or cancel plans because it’s the return of Don Draper & Co on Sunday, and Tim Gunn & Co on Thursday. Let the wild rumpus begin!</p>
<p>I’m with ya, katliamom. My two favorites!</p>
<p>Where the wild things are. You made me smile. Thanks for the heads up.</p>
<p>I had to find Lifetime on my cable lineup in order to TIVO when I read project Runway was moving there!!.I remember trying MadMen when it started and not likeing the first episode.I’ll go anywhere for Tim Gunn.
MadMen keeps winning awards so maybe I’ll give it another try…I just remember lots of martini’s and cigarettes.</p>
<p>Mad Men is an acquired taste. I watched the premiere episode, too, and wasn’t impressed. But later on in the year there was an AMC marathon of season 1, right before season 2 started. I recorded it all on TIVO and watched all the episodes on one weekend. I was hooked! I love reading the Mad Men posts on Alan Sepinwall’s webpage [What’s</a> Alan Watching?: Mad Men](<a href=“What's Alan Watching?: Mad Men]What's”>What's Alan Watching?: Mad Men) and the intelligent comments by his readers. It really enhanced my enjoyment of the show. By the time season 2 started, I couldn’t wait for Sunday nights.</p>
<p>If you haven’t been watching the show all along, it might be hard to pick it up now at season 3 and really care much about the characters. It’s such a subtle show (and slow moving!) that a new viewer might give up on it. If possible, rent the DVDs of the first 2 seasons and try to catch up that way.</p>
<p>And a new Top Chef season also. Happy happy, joy, joy. :)</p>
<p>If you have access to the Lifetime HD station did you notice there’s also going to be a Project Runway All Star Challenge?</p>
<p>Oh, saucy TV, a reference to “Where the Wild Things Are” <em>and</em> a Project Runway All-Stars? Happy happy joy joy, indeed!</p>
<p>I have never seen project runway as I did not have whatever the channel was. But last night I watched a show, Gown Crazy, which followed project runway alum Johnathan Kayne Gillaspie as he made pageant costumes for Miss Oklahoma contestants. To my surprises it was really entertaining. And one of his gowns won the Miss Oklahoma 2009 crown ;)</p>
<p>Now that project runway is on lifetime I may try watching it.</p>
<p>not only an all star challenge, but a show about the Runway models too!!</p>
<p>Woo Hoo! Let the fur flying begin!</p>
<p>Watching Mad Men right now with my daughter on Tivo!</p>
<p>And this is really low and embarrassing, but I can’t wait for Flipping Out either. Jeff is like a car wreck, I can’t take my eyes off of the t.v.</p>
<p>Boy, hasn’t Peggy turned into the snippy executive… Pete was at his sniveling best… Don of course a bundle of contradictions, though in truth I can live without the depression scenes. They border on the cliche – OK they CROSS the cliche border – and don’t add much beyond the obvious. Still, great show.</p>
<p>Project Runway all-star challenge !?!?!?! Where have I been? Thanks for the heads up!</p>
<p>Soooo, who watched the Project Runway All Star Challenege & episode 1 of PR? If you missed them (or don’t have cable to get Lifetime) they’re both online at the mylifetime.com site. Also, for fun and free (!) there’s a place where you can have Tim Gunn call your kid (or friend, or?) and give them a pep talk! I sent one to my D (a huge PR fan) and she’s gone nuts with it. Really fun.</p>
<p>I loved the All Star Challenge and was very happy with the winner, not necessarily the garment.</p>
<p>And I am quite pleased with the first off on PR.</p>
<p>I watched them both. I wasn’t happy with Daniel Vosovic winning – his outfits were nothing special, bordering on ugly. I thought Korto should have won, although her sore loser attitude was grating. At least Daniel is a nice guy. So glad that neither Santino nor Geoffrey won. I can’t stand either of them.</p>
<p>Episode 1 of Project Runway was great. I think it’s going to be a good season. That “disco soccer ball” outfit was ridiculous and I’m glad Ari was sent home. I was afraid that they were going to keep her around a while for drama. Glad they had the good sense to cut her loose now. Qristyl’s dress was ugly and that floral print looked like something on a K-Mart dress to me. I hope she ups her game next time or she’ll be the next one to go. Loved the two tone gunmetal gray dress, as well as the short dress that Shirin made, with the wrap that became part of the back of the dress when taken off.</p>
<p>The Tim Gunn pep talk was wonderful. I wonder if they praised Johnny’s dress because they were afraid he’d flee back to his crystal meth addiction. It was awful!</p>
<p>I will have to agree with you…Korto will never be a “winner” with that attitude. She receives a basket of lemons from me! And because Santino and Jeffrey were boasting and bragging I knew off the bat they wouldn’t win.</p>
<p>I would love a “hang in there” pep talk from Tim. He seems like a sincerely lovely man. I’m enetering the contest to win lunch with Tim. I love lunch & I love Tim.</p>
<p>MadMen, Entourage, Runway…and yes, I admit it Real Housewives of New York (only them), Army Wives, Drop Dead Diva…we’re going out tonight but gosh darn our tivos work hard!</p>
<p>MAD MEN SPOILER ALERT…</p>
<p>did anyone see that episode last night? WOW! Demonic Barbies and so much blood, they had to use a squeegee! FABULOUS.</p>
<p>Best. Episode. Ever. </p>
<p>I loved Roger’s crack when Paul said Guy might lose his foot.
“Right when he got it in the door…”</p>
<p>I was channel-switching during commercials and was pleased to see that Mad Men won the Emmy for best drama. Sorry Jon Hamm didn’t take best actor but I was really pleased that Bryan Cranston won. Breaking Bad is great TV.</p>
