Yeah, I'm like a bad penny. I just had too many shows I was watching and wanting to comment on.

I could never hold my bladder for 8 hours unless I was totally dehydrated and not drinking anything. I hope they were at least warned so they could be somewhat prepared. Didn't Vanessa have on Depends? So maybe they had some warning? I still don't know that I could do it.

Hey Hermie!!

The crossword puzzle really did it for me, not to mention the huge lie he told. I was glad that Tim brought that up at the end with the remaining desiners.

I also thought there was pretty high quality in those paper garments..

Maybe the models got to wear streamlined versions of the paper underwear that the one couple wore on one season of Amazing Race so they didn't have to stop to pee?

LOL.. not likely.

I guess I missed the part about then having to go eight hours, ack.

Sea, when Heidi was talking to the models, they said they couldn't eat, drink or go to the bathroom for eight hours. I don't understand the purpose of making the models wait eight hours in those outfits - especially when Tim rushes them out of the design room and tells them its time for the runway.

The standing around and not being able to eat or relieve oneself is part of being a model. Although, admittedly, I don't know why they had to wait 8 hours for a TV show. Otherwise, I've been sewn into dresses where I could barely move, let alone drop my drawers to take a pee.

Thanks, Ginger! I just wanted to take a break awhile, but the influx of new television shows brought me back. :-)

I thought about that, too, Costacat, that it is part of the job. Still makes my bladder hurt to think about it!

Costa, I could see if the models were doing a fashion show - but this is a TV show and there is no excuse for making them stand up for 8 hours. The entire runway walk doesn't take more than ten minutes tops for everyone.

Yeah, I hadn't watched the model show, yet, when I posted.. that was answered in that show.. and one model said she WAS wearing Depends..lol

And I guess there could have been some exaggeration.. but if they make the models stay in the outfits during the entire deliberation process, that would lengthen it considerabley I'm guessing.

There's actually quite a long period, TV show or not, during which the models must be dressed.

1. Staging and setup (including lighting).
2. The runway show.
3. Judges' initial deliberations.
4. Call backs for the top/bottom designs.
5. Final deliberations.
6. Final judgement.

The first four items could easily take up to three to four hours alone, assuming the production crew actually has their act together. Count in the two hours the contestants have to get the models ready (including hair and makeup) and the final sewing into of the garmets, and that would be another hour or two. It's totally not unreasonable at all to think of 5-6 hours anyways.

I did notice this was one show where the aftershow showed all of the models OUT of their outfits. Most often, they are still dressed for the runway when the winning and losing designers enter the models' green room.

Ramon's outfit did look a little scary but I think the flapper-boring-dress should have went bye bye. At least Ramon had idea's and creativity.

Sad night for me on Project Runway

I really liked Epperson's dress- well I liked that he did well with a genre no one wanted.

I thought for sure Epperson's dress was going to win last night ... he did a great job!

I hate how they are changing the judges every week. It must make it more difficult on the contestants.

I thought both Epperson's and Christopher's dresses should have won over Nicholas. They seemed so impressed with his originality with the evil white ice queen, but haven't we already seen the White Witch from Chronicles of Narnia?

It's too bad about Ramon. His dress was definitely not his best work, but to be able to do what he did in two hours? That's pretty impressive to me. Too bad his original design didn't work.

Why did Ramon try that bodysuit again. The last time he tried it (looked like a wetsuit) he scraped it and started again. I hated to see him go I thought he was really talented.

I'm sorry to see Ra'mon go. He did some really great stuff.

Bravo aired some of season 4 (?) this morning--the one Jeffrey wins--and, frankly, watching it made me realize how poorly done this season is. Some of the clothing this season is great, but the overall series (i.e., the narrative trajectory, the judging, Tim, etc.) is not as good as it had been. I laughed every time Tim said "genre" last night with that outrageous pronunciation. Even when I made fun of the word by giving it a French pronunciation, I don't exaggerate it that much. The way he said it was like a cartoon about an evil English teacher.

I definitely thought that Louise (I think that is who it was) should have gone before Ramon!

I didn't understand Chris's story. His was supposed to be a period piece. What the heck period was that dress from? Not saying it wasn't a beautiful piece, but I totally didn't think he met the challenge accurately. I thought Epperson should have won also, but do think Nicholas deserved the win over Christopher for better meeting the criteria of the challenge. And trust me, I like Christopher gobs and gobs more than Nicholas.

I love Ramon, but I like Louise, too. I couldn't have picked between them.

I was so sad Fatma left. I love her looks! She is so much more interesting than some of the other models.
