I was watching the Top Chef debut episode on Bravo in rerun, and after about 5 minutes when they broke for commercial, guess what the commercial was? It was an ad telling you that the Project Runway All Stars was on Lifetime right now--and that you should switch over, which I did! I don't know if I've ever seen the like before: an ad actually asking you to change your channel. I thought it was great, but what was the benefit to Bravo?

Last January, I switched to HD tv and really enjoyed rewatching past seasons of Project Runway because I could see so much more detail on the dresses. It was like seeing them for the first time. So to watch it tonight and not have it in HD just made it all seem so flat. I'm very spoiled now. I, too, have directv so maybe that's the problem?

Beth, there was no benefit for Bravo other than the advertising dollars that Lifetime paid for that ad. I hope they replay the all stars sometime (does Lifetime do that?). I totally missed that this was starting and I'm out of town and the hotel didn't have Lifetime on their cable lineup. <pout>

How come there are no comments on last night's show? Is it that not everyone has Lifetime?? Or is it that it's the same old same old by now? At any rate, the chick who left was a good choice IMO. I think it is a rip off if the measurements the contestants are given are not 100% accurate. Glad they left that guy in!

I watched, Julie. I was excited and glad it's back. I was really happy for the guy who won, Chris I think. I loved his dress and loved that someone who isn't as educated had a chance and won.

Dovez, did you by chance mean "Make Me A Supermodel" about the one who walked for Chris? I'm just asking in case I'm missing out on another show. LOL. I'll have to watch it again to see who you mean. Do you remember which season she was on, and how she fared? I'm so bad at recognizing people. So just trying to arm my brain beforehand with as much info as I can get.

Cool. Thanks Crzndeb! Did they mention them by name? Or are you just really good at recognizing people? I'll have to study their pics on the Bravo site, and then try and see if I can find them on this show.

Great catch Dovez and the rest!! I, too, caught Mountaha but missed Jordan. For Chris, Moutaha wore the "Red Carpet" dress. Good first show overall...definite right person went home? Was she just a plant??

Now that I'm looking at it, maybe it wasn't Jordan...Who is the model walking 2nd for Sweet P in the peachy colored dress...it's one of the "Supermodels" or ANTM girls...I get them all confused. Just recognize the face Julie...models

I was disappointed with the PR All Stars edition. Daniel's stuff looked terrible IMO (but then I never liked him a bit) and Chris made clothes that managed to be every bit as bad as the stuff Chris made during his season, but in an entirely new way.

Oh, I am in the wrong thread!! Nevermind. I thought this was the thread about the newest PR, but it was started for the allstars!

Ok, I was clearly on the wrong channel, LOL. I was watching an old season marathon on Oxygen Channel. Totally forgot there were new ones on Lifetime, plus I never had seen the show because I only started getting bravo this year.

Julie, We were talking about PR Allstars, which was a 2 hour show before the new season of PR...it just got blended with this thread since is won't be a weekly program. You are in the right thread for both the AllStars show and the new season of PR

Just watched the season premiere. OK, the right person went home. Looks like there are a couple really talented people on the show: I'm totally a fan of Ra'Mon already and an unfan of the guy who won the challenge. I hope it's not going to be a season during which I have to hear about Johnny's meth addiction recovery in every episode because...that would be tiring. I can watch Intervention on Mondays, thanks. The Persian girl seems to make interesting stuff; Qrystal doesn't. Who was the girl who said her designs are a tribute to her dog? That was as bad as Streisand telling Oprah that her version of "Smile" was dedicated to her dead bijon frise. Oh and I'm really excited that it's filmed right here in downtown LA, the section of town lots of people think doesn't really exist. The location is really really close to me, so I wish I had known they were shooting here. Of course, this series was filmed nearly a year ago now, so I doubt it would have mattered that much if I'd known.

On allstars I liked Chris's pieces. He was so overwhelmed that the judges liked them too. But Chris didn't look well to me. Also loved Korto's[Spellin?] and thought she should have won. On the reg. season I liked the piece that won.

Did anyone of you think that Korto was a little bit of a sore looser. I know she came in second in her season too, but still I think she really was sour grapes last night...

I dont know if Korto was or wasnt - I do know the comments of praise she received seemed to be leaning that she was the winner.... and her dress from the junk stuff from the restaurant was really nice! Shocked me!!
