I fall asleep before the end of the show every week....I don't like Eddie either.

I am also a member of the anti-Eddie club. Ever since they broke that $90 vase(?), I think it was, in the store of an interior design showplace, and Eddie argued unto death that that piece wasn't worth $90. And in the worst way, he threw his Martha Stewart credentials around to prove the point (what did that have to do with it? You break a vase with a $90 price tag, you pay for it.) It was so crass, and I've not been a fan since. Looks like he and Martha belong together (not a Martha fan either). I remember it was Ondine who rescued the ugly situation above by deflecting the whole conversation and saying "how about we give you such-and-thus for the whole lot." And the store owner, and professional designer, said "For you, anything. For him, he owes me an apology."

Whether you like Martha of not, she's not stupid. Eddie may not have a job after she watches this show.

If Eddie worked for me prior to joining this show, he sure wouldn't be afterwards. In fact, I'd say about 80% of reality show contestants would lose their jobs once they left the reality show that they were trying to become rich and famous on. :-)

The guys from Project Rungay say that Kelly W. goes into the set every week and lets hair and makeup do whatever they want to make it interesting - I wish MORE judges were like that! It always is interesting and fabulous!

I am a Wickedly Perfect lover too, except the wrong person won. They brought back <100> Jennifer and gave it to her instead of MAP. They need to do Wickedly Perfect again, that was GREAT.

I liked that show, too!! So is anyone still watching this? At least they went back to individual challenges and creating their own "space" like they did last year.

I really liked Preston last night and was glad he won.

Oh, definitely still watching, and VERY GLAD they are doing independent projects now that the numbers are down. So much more interesting.

I don't know if I had a favorite "room" last night, but I definitely have a favorite contestant: Nathan, for consistency, talent, and behavior!

Was sorry to see the "youngster" (Natalie) go. Except for the bookcase, I liked her room.

Oh, and it was nice to see Eddie helping someone for once (putting the silver tape down for Andrea).

Again what was with that Kelly Werstler?? with the "Glenda the good witch meets an alien" look??? Bobby socks with high heels? An upside down cloth pot on her head? Different for sure, and she at least looked very "finished," which is more than I can say about Leanne from TD. (Though I totally love Leanne--just not her hair and makeup.)

Personally I think it's an ugly look, but on the PerezHilton.com WEB site he just ran a photo of British reality star "Jordan" leaving a club last night, wearing a short gold dress, white knee socks and pink high heels. So I guess it is a contemporary look.

FYI, when Kelly Werstler walked out my husband and I said in unison, "what's with the 'Wizard of Oz' look?" (Only we both thought she looked more like one of the Munchkin women -- all she needed was a flower growing out of her flowerpot hat. Or am I confusing that look with one of the Dr. Seuss characters?)

Anyway, kudos to Kelly for being a good sport and being willing to take fashion chances on national TV.

Well too bad Eddie had immunity. He might have gone home!! Oh well, bye bye Andrea. I'm still liking Preston more and more. I think unless he really has a bad challenge, he and Nathan might be final two. I hope so anyway!

I thinking a Nathan and Eddie final two as well!

even though I think Andrea is a sweet person, I felt the same way-bye bye! Now we won't be able to see that b&w picture of her and her hubby they show us every week.

I am sure Ondine felt a tad bit uncomfortable while Andrea was making her decision-I sure felt uncomfortable for her!

Simon Doonan is Jonathan Adler's husband? how cute!

Waaay too bad Eddie had immunity. The minute he started pulling all the Martha Stewart furniture on board, all I could think was that he was going to pull a "granny" look again!

I am so hoping for Nathan/Preston final.

Eddie's selection of Preston last for the light fixture surely bombed ! God does not like ugly or ooglie behavior.
Was that light fixture the same one that was on Design Star in the home of the New Orleans first responder at the end of the season ? It is very similar and divine.

Putting a Swarovski chandelier into Martha Stewart room is like, well, putting lipstick on a pig. Eddie is "over" the judges? I'm over Eddie...

I don't it was the same fixture; it was quite similar, but I seem to recall it as smaller.

I would love a Nathan/Preston final two.

Boy, if I wasn't turned off Martha already Eddie would do it. I wish I could say what I really think of Eddie.

Nathan and Preston for final 2!

The fixture that was used on Design Star was also much cheaper. If I remember correctly, the fixture on Design Star was less than $2,000.00 whereas the one last night was what... $40,000.00?

I'm on board for a Nathan/Preston finale, with Preston winning (only because I think he's more humble and has been more consistent than Nathan). Eddie can go any time and I won't miss his ego and his Martha Stewart references. Does he not realize that there is a whole LOT of people who can't stand that woman and her "designs." And doesn't she only sell her "designs" out of K-Mart? Hehehe! <snicker>

I had this sudden thought after last night, wondering if Martha Stewart let Eddie go do the show ("they were so kind etc etc") in return for his doing "product placement" whenever possible!

And it just amazed me how he went into raptures about flying on Martha's private jet! If I were on Martha's private jet, I would want to flee!

What is wrong with Kmart? I happen to shop there and happen to like what they sell. If I were making the cash that Martha does, you could snicker all you wanted at me---all the way to the bank and back!
