I just realized Jay is from near where I live. I thought on the show they said "Leahman," but it's really Lehman. The local paper just did a feature on him, and he actually had a store not five miles from my house.

The marathon was on yesterday, and I too was completly sucked in. I missed the first episode, and felt sorry for Wendy. Then she backstabbed anyone who was nice to her. I loved this show. Does anyone know if they are going to repeat the reunion show?

Pamy, she came in with a plan to befriend the others with her "mom" persona and then determine their weak points and use that to win. The others pretty much came in intending to show off their talents. Then she started backstabbing others, often when she ended up being the other one on the chopping block on the end and she kept staying when others were sent home, at times when it seemed like she should have been the one to go. Twice she won critical competitions so of course stayed in then. The main complaint, besides her attitude was that she simply didn't have the level of talent displayed by the others, and that when she did well it was because of very specific instructions or help from Tim (the director of Parsons School of Design) but that she most often floundered if she had to be creative. That is of course my own take on things, and I'm slanted against her but I'm far from alone. If you click the link at the top of the thread and poke around, read Tim's take on each episode.. very interesting.

I agree with you Seamonkey, She doesn't have the talent of the others. I think Austin should have been in the final three. At first I felt sorry for her. My fave was Tara Saun. I just loved her style.

I miss this show! I wish they'd do a monthly follow-up on all of them (especially Austin).

Bravo Heads Back to the 'Runway' (Monday, March 21 08:46 AM) LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) With an audience of just over 2 million viewers, the Wednesday, Feb. 23 first season finale of "Project Runway" stands as Bravo's most watched program of the year. It's little wonder, then, that the cable network is eager to go back down the catwalk with the Heidi Klum-hosted series. Bravo and Miramax Television are set to begin production on a second season of "Project Runway," an impressive fact given that the show premiered back in December to only 354,000 viewers. Klum will return as host and executive producer on the series, which gives aspiring designers the chance to break into the world of high fashion. "'Project Runway' is in the cross hairs of Bravo's programming mandate--to give viewers a unique, behind the scenes perspective into the creative process of an integral part of pop culture," says Bravo President Lauren Zalaznick. "Miramax is the absolute best television partner on this series that we could hope to have for this second season, and many more to come." In addition to Klum and her managers Desiree Gruber and Jane Cha, "Project Runway" is executive produced by Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz of Magical Elves, with Jennifer Berman and Barbara Schneeweiss overseeing things for Miramax. "It's been great discovering new talent and giving viewers the chance to have an inside look into the exciting world of fashion," says Miramax Co-Chairman Harvey Weinstein. "We're looking forward to another successful season of 'Project Runway' with Bravo and Heidi Klum." http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,2711|,00.html

They showed a few eps this afternoon and I got caught up. Hated Wendy. Especially when she stole Kara's fabric for the Grammy outfit comp. I was sorry Austin didn't make it to the end and shocked, he did great work.

under the heading of better late than never!, Life channel in Canada has picked up Project Runway. Season 1 apparently is premiering this Monday, April 11 at 8PM! Hopefully they will carry season 2 at the same time as it is carried in the US. A girl can dream anyway

Good news from Zap2it.com! Casting Begins for 'Runway,' 'Hunters' Regardless of your specific skill set, keep your eyes on the NBC Universal casting pages, because they've probably got a reality show out there with your name on it. The media behemoth has announced the start of the audition process for both NBC's "Treasure Hunters" and the second season of Bravo's "Project Runway." "Treasure Hunters," a new quest-oriented series which seems to be more than a little inspired by the success of "The Da Vinci Code" and the film "National Treasure," begins its quest for wannabe adventurers and problem solvers in, of all places, Tampa, Florida on Tuesday, April 14. The selected contestants will follow a series of clues on a global search which will end at the location of a treasure. For now, though, aspiring players will have to follow the less vague set of clues on NBC's website to one of the nine audition cities, a list that also includes Dallas (Sunday, April 16), Chicago (Saturday, April 23) and Boston (Saturday, April 30). Meanwhile, aspiring fashion designers can begin their journey to style glory in Los Angeles on Sunday, April 12. While some shows allow potential contestants to just send tapes, "Project Runway" requires attendance in one of the four audition cities (Houston, New York and Miami are the other three). Additional information about try-outs is available on the Bravo site.

Project Runway's Jay McCarroll: "I'm not on the 'Apprentice!'" Project Runway's first-season winner, Jay McCarroll, "exploded at a party guest who mistook him for one of Donald Trump's protégés," according to Lloyd Grove, who reports this as if we'd blame Jay for getting annoyed at this mistake. He said, "I'm not on the 'Apprentice!'" Lloyd reports that Jay was wearing "a 10-gallon hat, pink sunglasses and giant poncho that hid the wine glass he was holding at crotch level," and reports on an exchange between Jay and a Daily News reporter, Hud Morgan. Although Jay called to apologize ("I had about 900 drinks and I'm really, really sorry for screaming at you like an a--. I remember calling your parents [a rather colorful anti-gay epithet], but at the end of the day, you're doing your job, and I shouldn't be making personal attacks on you, and I'm sorry."), Grove still recounts the whole exchange. It started when the reporter asked Jay about his hat, and Jay said, "I'm from the country. I live in the woods. Where are you from?" It then devolves into Jay calling the reporter names and the reporter egging him on; Lloyd has the whole conversation. link

LOL, well I always said he wasn't as polished with the public and press as Karasaun or Austin. But what about Jay would say "The Apprentice"???

Josie, I assume it will start in the fall although I have no idea. season one is being repeated right now on BRAVO. As you can see at that site (just click the link), they are still taking applications for season two. I saw an ad the other day for a new show called, I think, THE CUT, in which Tommy Hilfiger is doing an apprentice style show to pick a new designer for his line. Maybe that might fill in the gap until the fall? IT premieres Thursday June 9 at 8PM on CBS. Here is a brief summary from that site (but you can Click the link to learn more about the show.) conic design mogul Tommy Hilfiger hosts this new reality series in search of the next great American designer. Hilfiger’s rags-to-riches journey is the basis for the competition in which 16 style-savvy contestants will find themselves literally living Hilfiger’s life in fast-forward. Competing in a series of grueling style assignments that test their talent, business acumen, sales and marketing expertise, social skills, resourcefulness and style IQs, the winner will have the opportunity to design his or her own collection under the Tommy Hilfiger label. I hope this helps

They were just doing casting calls at the end of April/beginning of May, and it's scheduled for a Fall reappearance.

I read that Austin and Jay were part of the judges panel for the casting calls. Hope they show that on tv because their comments and facial expressions may be better than the whole upcoming season!

Thanks for the info, Jan, about The Cut. Having enjoyed Project Runway so much, I'm hoping The Cut will be just as good - or at least a good summer filler.

This show was, by far, my favorite reality show. It is hard to imagine that another season can come close to the first. Austin, Jay and their evil foil, Wendy supplied comedy that topped any scripted sitcom, ever.

I would love to see the three of them do a show of any type by themselves. They are extremely entertaining for me to watch. Austin's fashion, hair and makeup alone fascinatees me. Geez, I need a life

Ya know I will probably get slammed for this but I wish Bravo, A&E and Discovery would go back to thier original programming and get away from these "Reality" shows. I miss all the mystery shows, theater etc they used to do. Reminds me of how MTV and VH1 used to do music along time ago.

The minute I saw Austin at the beginning of last season, I was a fan for life! And Jay grew on me as the season went on. I'm really anticipating seeing more of them.

Terolyn ~ not to worry. I think next season there will be fewer reality shows all around. But in the meantime, I do like the ones that Bravo and A&E come up with better then the ones the main networks do.

Right when they were discussing who drew on Wendy's daughter's picture...we got out-of-town company. Could someone please tell me who did it? I think it was Kevin but wonder if he finally confessed.

Supergranny, they never showed who did it. Speculation was that it could have been Kevin since he was alone packing up in the workroom but it was never proven and he didn't confess.
