Did anyone else notice the difference in apparel? Were these people in the same city/temperature? Nina is in two layers of tank tops, and Vern has on a bulky knit sweater zipped all the way up while Alex is stylin' in a fleece hoody with the hood pulled up! Bugged me no end!

Well, Vern may have just been in the studio and certainly not working up a sweat outside. Don't know about Alex but Nina.. maybe hot flashes??

LOL, Sea! I am probably super temperature conscious since we are in the throes of a major heat wave here! We are currently experiencing temperatures - and the accompanying thunder storms - that usually occur in August! Kind of scary to see what August will bring -

I like the idea of what Nina wants to do with the freehand lines but I'm always taken back by how poorly she executes it. For an artist, she's really poor at that.

I'm kinda tired of hearing how Nina is an "artist." Like that makes her special? SMOKEY is an artist! Nina? Well, heck, even *I* can draw squiggles!

I'm guessing Nina thinks it worked well for David Bromstad a few years ago. I don't think she'd look as hot in a tank top though.

I hated that Nina just scribbled on the wall and the judges loved it. My DH and I both absolutely hated it. I just don't get it...if it comes down to Nina and Courtland, then just ugh. Not sure I'll be able to keep watching. I find them both to be very unappealing. Nina is no David Bromstad...I do love his art. He could "scribble" on my wall anytime. Hers...not so much. It looks very amateurish to me.

Nina had better come up with something besides just the scribbling. Sooner or later the judges are going to want to see something other than the "I am an artist" thing. It could be her downfall if she does not broaden her scope. And let's face it, she is no David Bromstead. I actually liked the men's patio better than the women's. I was not surprised at that Trent who went home and I was also not surprised to see him speak up and all but offer to leave. I think if they had not chosen him, he would done so. I am thinking that Tom (the one that always wears a suit) is a nice person, but he sure is formal and a bit stiff. Anyone else feel that way?

Has it been forever since we had a new episode? Or does it just seem that way? Or did my DVR miss one? The last one I saw was the patio/Nina scribbles and the judges raved over it one.

No new shows Sunday night. I assume it was because of the 4th of July.

I couldn't believe what I heard. The blonde judge said Alex was very clear/concise when he spoke during his filming segment. All I was thinking when I was watching him was, " My goodness, this guy is mumbling, what the heck is he saying?". I kept turning up the volume, but it didn't help. Dan certainly didn't do a great job either, but Alex couldn't be understood. Both of them did poorly so it was hard to tell which should go home, but saying Alex was "consise", what was she listening to? I actually felt sorry for him.

I haven't been a fan of Alex, but I thought his presentation was wonderful--and very unlike any other bit of self-presentation he's done throughout the show. I thought it was pretty shady of them to say, "oh, well, we decided not to make this a team challenge after all" when all the people went into it thinking of it as precisely a team challenge, if only because the psychology of an individual challenge vs. a team challenge is so different for everybody except, I guess, Nina. To her, everything is transcendently individual.

I thought it sucked that they turned it from a team challenge into an individual one. As soon as I heard that, I knew Dan was out of there. I loved how Courtland tried to take credit for the bookcase, and Alex put him in his place. I thought Courtland had gotten screwed over by Nina on the first challenge, but he's more than making up for it since then (seems like he's out to screw everyone else to make up for it). Alex was so much better on cam than during the personal chat. Although I don't think he made as much sense as the judges said (he used the same adjectives over and over again). I absolutely cannot stand Nina. She is definitely one-note, although she denies it. And she thinks she designed everything? Um, yeah, nope. On the petty side, Nina is someone who should NEVER wear a skirt that hits mid thigh. Those thighs were so distracting during elimination.

I agree about Nina and the skirt. It didn't flatter her at all!

Thank goodness Ms Nina and her farkakte "art" is gone gone gone. A piece of braille artwork in a firehouse? Yeah, that was a good idea.

If Nina had not gone, I would have been very upset. She was obviously the worst host, not to mention her "art" was ridiculous. Her team didn't do much else right either - but I was glad to hear the firefighters thought it was nice. I can't imagine the extra pressure they must have felt in designing something for a group of men who are so respected and honored - I'd have been scared to death to screw up!

I thought the room was crowded and confusing, but not bad enough to become as angry and insulted and Vern and Gen seemed to be. It must have really looked awful in person!
