Dear Project Runway,

I love you. You know I do. I wish that I could sew better just watching you, because I would love a chance to try out for you. You're right after The Amazing Race and right before America's Got Talent on the list of reality shows I wish I could be on. (For the record, the only reason I wouldn't try out for America's Got Talent is that my two biggest talents are writing and tying a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue, neither of which are suited for performing before a family audience.)

Anyway, I have watched the first and secong season marathons this past week and I have a simple request for the new season that's starting tonight, without the benefit of spoilers to back me up or discourage me.

For the love of God, bring back immunity and picking out models every week.

Immunity meant something to strive for. Lacking that immunity, the designers in season two were simply trying not to get eliminated. I have this sneaking suspicion that might be why the collections for season two weren't as good as the ones for season one, because the designers weren't used to being the best, rather than simply not being the worst.

And as for the model thing, I feel like I knew the models better in season one than in season two. In season two, the only thing I really knew about the models coming out of it was that Marla's model sucked like a hosebeast and Rachael couldn't walk if her life depended on it.

Granted, you probably won't change either rule, and I will be disappointed, but I can dream.

Sincerely,

Me

P.S. You're definitely not getting here quickly enough. *whimpers*

I have to say I whole hearted agree with everything you said. Season 1 was more informative and competitive that season 2.

I was hoping you would make a post about Project Runway...This lady that I work with - her Cousin - is the one Red Head on the new season that starts tonight. I thought I would let you know whan you made a post about it!

The redhead as in the frightening old woman that looks like the zombie ghost of a former flapper?

[kathih.livejournal.com]

Her name is Angela.

Sorry, wrong redhead.

You talking about Laura B.? She's awesome.

In my hopes of meeting Daniel, I told my best friend (the one to blame for my recent addiction to the show) that I would have to audition for the show. When she pointed out that I don't even know how to turn on a sewing machine, I explained how I'm going in there with my Barbie fashion plates and a box of crayons.

"And then you can also switch this up with this top and make it...whatever color you have in your box of crayons."

I missed most of the season 1 marathon, but now I at least understand why everyone was saying the designs were better.

Your keyboard to the producers' ears, my friend. On both counts.

I have a special affection for Season 2 because my one claim to fame moment is that I was coming back uptown, rushing to class after a late night (incredibly grubby in borrowed sweats), and I bumped into Daniel Vosovic on the subway. He was very sweet and smiled back when I gawked for a moment, even though I was dumbstruck, hungover, and attempting to hide myself during rush hour. I was told by friends never to wash my arm or hands ever again. :P

That said, I am a sucker for pretty boys (let this one not be gay too! Actually, never mind, that's when it's best, isn't it?), and my new Daniel is Keith Michael!

YES to immunity and a better fashion week this year.
