For example, right now I am watching the first episode of Models of the Runway. Are y'all not watching that right now?
I kind of have it on in the background. I probably won't watch it again, I don't really care about model drama.
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

Yeah, it really wasn't all that. Without crazy people like Tyra and the Jays or ridiculous amounts of drama like on MMaS, models are just not that interesting. I did enjoy Mitchell's model shit talking him. He did throw her under the bus.

I think the judges were wrong with the All Star challenge. I love me some Korto and that dress she made from the restaurant crap was AWESOME. I mean, damn.
With PR:LA, man, I completely cosign who they got rid of. Damn that was some fugly shit. Either of the bottom two would have been just fine for me. I believe the person they sent home has some mental health issues though.

I'm trying to figure out how breakdown boy got into the top 3. I did not like his dress at all. And I felt there were some taste issues with the low back/deep vee front.
Any of the B3 could've gone home for me, although I got Nina's point about Mitchell at least giving you something that could make you want to see more from him. I like Qrystl(?), but that dress was tacky.

Because books.
Qristal's (?) dress wasn't that awful, I didn't think, but I think for me it worked better when she said "Emmys". The print was a lot more casual than I expected. I feel like someone with better tailoring skills could possibly pull something like off a little better.
I really liked Irina's dress, and I was surprised that didn't end up in the top somewhere.

I agree. I thought Irina's dress was a dream. And it moved beautifully.

I didn't think that his dress was all that. I didn't mind the back but the front was all saggy.

I think I would've been OK with either the low back or the deep vee front, but not both. And I'm with you on the shaplessness of the dress being off putting. The sides of the dress kind of reminded me of saddle bags.

The red one, right? It sort of reminded me of a manta ray, which is not something I want to look like on a runway or anywhere.
I liked the winner's dress, although for a hot second I had to decide if the ruffles on the skirt were a little 80s prom. And I'm not sure it would look great on anyone who isn't a size 2, but I did love that bodice.

The 80's prom vibe was not helped out by the one fingerless glove, no? Very Madonna Who's That Girl. That said, I still loved the dress.
