I like this show so much better than any edition of the original Project Runway in what feels like years and years. Actual talent! Everyone seems to like each other! No unpleasantness!
I was sort of disappointed with the group challenge resulting in only four looks on the runway. I would have liked them to have more time (5 hours? Really?) and each make their own piece.
I also wanted more looks on the runway. They are so talented. I think Peytie, Maya, and Samantha are the top three.
I am so immersed in this show. The losing designer is so sweet and talented; I really believe he has a promising future in front of him. I wish they would have had more time, too, but they all did such a great job. I love this season so much! There is something so uplifting about unbridled potential!! I’m so over the redemption narrative that so many reality shows depend on. And even the product placement wasn’t as annoying as usual, probably because product placements in general were such a small part of the show. Even the vapid model host is starting to grow on me, i’m hoping Tom will keep this franchise gping; he truly seems energized by this season.
I can’t get the edit function to work. Tim!! I know his name is Tim!
PR junior , wow such great designers! Many of them are better than the adult PR.
Finally caught up with episodes. I am really enjoying this version!
Agree that the girls seem stronger than the guys. Of course, rooting for hometown girl Maya, but also really enjoy Samantha (she seems to have wisely toned down her confidence) and am liking the California teen better (Peytie?).
I was sorry to see Jesse go - he made the school outfit that was boring but well tailored. Have NO idea why they let him go over Jaxson (kid with glasses). Zachary is a little annoying - he seems to have a bit of a big head.
I also am touched by how sensitive the judges seem to be towards the contestants when they have to go home.
Has the show not been on the past couple of Thursdays because of the holidays? I couldn’t find it as I sat alone doing nothing on New Year’s Eve. haha
Correct. Most shows go on mid-season hiatus around the holidays. The next new episode is 1/7.
Oh good! I thought I’d missed several episodes.
I loved Zach’s outfit and am happy he won the challenge. Bridget obviously doesn’t understand the “Bohemian” style. I felt bad for her. Jaxson’s skirt looked awful from the back. Will he be the next to go?
I think Jackson should have gone a long time ago.
I agree it was time for Jackson to go!
Jackson has been on the bottom what seems like a lot. I don’t know why they keep saving him.
I am probably alone in not liking Zach’s outfit. The bottom looked horrible! I wonder how closely they looked at those tux stripes.
My favorites are Payton, Maya and I think Samantha. The young black guy who won this week is so fun, but I’m not 100% convinced of his skill.
I think that both Samantha and Zachary could use a little dose of humility. They both have a little edge of big headedness that is not becoming. I do ADORE Samantha’s hairstyle!
Payton has grown on me. Maya is among the best - even if I’m a bit biased as a hometown girl!
Watching it now. These kids are so like mini-adults.
Two got sent home?!! Has that happened before on any of the Runway shows? Granted, both outfits were pretty ugly. Jaxson was doomed from the first trip to Mood. Then Tim gives everyone a second chance by visitiing Mini Mood. That still didn’t help.
I loved Maya’s look. Samantha’s look wasn’t bad and might be liked by Seventeen readers. I like how Samanatha really used her inspiration and still made it fashionable. Payton’s top and vest were cute, but the pants…Zachary did o.k.
Okay, will you all think I’m just a sentimental old fool if I say that this is my all-time favorite tv show ever? Can I just say how much I love Tim Gunn?
First of all, how touching to see the judges all be so emotional with these kids?! Priceless.
Second, no warning for two leaving? Jaxson has been on the bottom over and over - but the other young man should have gotten another chance.
No Tim Gunn save yet - will he use it next week and send them all to fashion week?
I wanted to see Maya take the win alone. Samantha’s was very good but she has taken the top spot before and to me, Maya’s was a step above. She is quite talented!
Toledo, I saw there was a viewing party in town for the show last night with Maya - we should have gone!!! I wonder if they do it weekly or if they just did it last night because of the win??
They had a week when noone went home so it makes sense that a double eliminarion was necessary to stay on track. And the double eliminarion felt fair.
I thought they did a double earlier - maybe I lost track.
I don’t think that this week was anymore worthy of a double elim then any other week.
Jaxson looked so surprised and shocked when he was called out - I think he thought he was safe since the other guy (I don’t know why I can’t remember his name!) was called first.
