Tonight they just showed us the 11 contestants they picked. Saw the application videos and interviews. Looks like a very diverse crowd.

I missed it, darn it! I'm sure they'll rerun it about a thousand times, so I'll get to see it eventually.

The first elimination episode was last night. I really agreed with everything the judges said. I wish there had been at least one more challenge before they had to eliminate anybody, I would have liked to see more from the "punk" girl, it seemed like she just had nerves and choked. ah well I thought the dinning table and lounge were the best (although I could have done without that stupid lamp shade centerpiece/chandelier thing) but they were closly followed by the bedrooms. They did great. Then that bar area and that stupid living space..riduculous...couldn't they tell how bad it looked?lol and I'm glad Vern is back too! love that Vern!

I love Vern, too, Smarty. He's always been my favorite. I liked the bedroom best...the one that glitter Josh and Will did. It really looked pulled together. I also liked the sunken dining room very much. That group also seemed to work very well together as did Josh and Will. I thought the rest of the house was miserable especially the bar area and the garage door etc. I wish they could have fired 3 people last night. Looks like there will be more intense conflict next week. Should be interesting. I wish we could hear more of the judges discussion but I guess it's much like Top Chef on Bravo. There's just too little time to fit so much into a 1 hour show and 2 hours would be too much.

The bottom 4 were all bad, they just flipped a coin who should leave first.

As soon as I saw the punk girl working on her "phone book sculpture" I knew she'd be the first to go home. That garage was a disaster! But so was the bar area. That paint job...oh my.

Doggone it! This is the second time my DVR has chacked this show. Apparantly it has issues with it home design. I had it set up to do series recording, and it said okie-dokie. Then when I go to see if it recorded the first episode, it didn't. Go into my series list, and it says, "0 episodes scheduled to record." Ummm...dvr dear, this is a new series, since you go out two weeks into the future, you should have at least two new shows scheduled." So I delete that from the series list, re-set it up and it says okie-dokie, two new episodes scheduled to record. Check today, no episode recorded again. Check the series list, "0 new episodes scheduled....." Re-delete, re-set up. Its saying okie dokie again..... We'll see.

I just read an article in one of our local papers about my hometown boy being on here. His nickname is "Sparkles," so he should be amazing to watch. I missed last night's episode though -

TNT, Sparkles Josh is from Hendersonville. When you get your tapes from me, you'll see his audition. If you need this weeks show, I can tape it for you. Just let me know.

Yep, Hendersonville is an ENE suburb of Nashville, so I am excited to have a candidate on the show. I did miss this past Sunday (7/29) show due to all the bad travel karma, so I would love a copy when we meet for lunch - not inportant enough to mail just one program!

Smartypants - I agree, they were weak. Totally disliked the crackled cabinets. And why would you do away with pantry/storage space and put a fountain in it's place?

I didn't like either kitchen wise. I loved the 2nd one's dining room though. I'm not sure I'd want a big fountain in my kitchen though. How can you buy tile and not measure the space so you'd know how much tile you need? Glad they're moving to individual rooms next week.

Definately can't wait for next week and the individual rooms. A chance to actually see each designers point of view. and that kitchen w/the fountain they said was like for a family of four...and they took away all of that storage space... I bet after it all sank in the families were less than thrilled with their new and "improved" kitchens

I agree,I cannot wait until next week when they do their own rooms.That kitchen was horrible,and they left it undone.But the dining area was great.Can't really say I have A fav yet.None of them seem to have the spunk like David did last year.I just liked him from day one.

From an admittedly prejudiced point of view, I think Sparkle Josh has a lot of charisma. However, I fell asleep and missed the Sunday show, so I may be mistaken - The Owl will no doubt set me straight when/if we get together for lunch next week!

My TIVO won't "series" record Design Star either. I wonder what's the deal with that? I'm glad they rerun it over and over and over...LOL!

I taped the last epi last night and watched it this morning! I just LOVE Sparkle Josh - and I hope they keep calling him that even though Organic Josh is history!

I'm with you , Sparkle Josh is a fav. When he showed some of his previous work, I figured his taste might just be a little to Anna Nicole for me, but have really liked his work so far. Hope he does well.

Good show tonight but was very nervous about Sparkle Josh! They are doing 2 eliminations three weeks in a row, guess this is not going to be a very long run. Too bad because I love this show! Loved some of the ideas they came up with tonight, very smart!

I was also very relieved that Sparkle Josh didn't get eliminated.
