Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I didn't notice that Mountaha from MMaSM was one of Chris March's models! [link]

Because books.

I thought I spotted Shannon, too! From the first season. (I was watching with one eye, but it was muted and I was on the phone.)

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

PR is supposed to be available on Lifetimes site but all I can find are snippets. No full episode.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Totally did not notice!

The problem with Lifetime is that it must actually have programming and not need to show the same program eight billion times in a row like Bravo or MTV. I never worry about missing Top Chef or ABDC because they're on so many times.

Yeah, Bravo definitely spoiled me.

Thrive to spite them

I thought that the Disco Soccer ball was...well maybe if it had a skirt and no hoodie it could be MTV Awards or something. It wasn't horrible, just out there.

I have a question about the Smock Dress turned Nightie -- was the material he used for the top different because it looked like the same sheer stuff and that was really sheer. Unless the smocking would change or hide that. I'm not sure about High collar smocked dress for a red carpet.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I thought that was Mountaha!! I had one of those "Hey, was that--" moments during his runway. Speaking of which, I lovelovelove Chris's runway gown. Yes, it was over the top, but man, did it work!

I'm not a fan of Sweet P's style, I guess, because all of those gowns left me feeling really "meh."

My two favorite looks from the All-Star were Daniel's black-and-white gown and Korto's restaurant challenge dress, which was amazing. Really innovative, and the structure was perfect.

I'll have to rewatch PR:LA, because I don't remember anything from that show. But, I do think that Wacky Chick might have stuck around if it weren't for the show's experience with the first Wacky Chick from a few seasons back, the one who spit on the gown instead of using chalk to mark a hemline. They don't want to have to go through that again.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. She imbued it with her essence!

I swear they deliberately cast Wacky Chicks and then are baffled when they behave erratically on the show. I wouldn't have minded seeing more of what she could do, though.

Especially since it seems from the previews that Nightie Boy runs into problems again next week. If he's just going to implode later, I don't know that I wouldn't rather see Wacky work.

Also, if the pressure is too much for the red dress guy on day one, I wonder how he'll be later on.
