Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

The over the top crazy is entertaining to me though for some reason. I want him to get his comeuppance though.

I don't think I can emphasize enough how VERY MUCH I hated Coach. Since Russell is the Anti-Coach, I do begrudgingly find him an interesting player.

NOT COOL burning Water Polo's socks though. NOT COOL RUSSELL.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

To me, Coach was just so freaking earnest that I couldn't attribute any malice to him. He really did honestly believe in his whole dragon-slayer Be The Best You Can Be schtick.

Russell is intentionally being a misogynist fuckwad, and he knows it. Coach was frequently intolerable, but he was never mean.

Because books.

Project Runway: Who told Eva Longoria and the other guest judge to dress alike?

I can't believe Carol Hannah's dress wasn't in the top tier. But Irina's coat is really spectacular.

It surprised me that no really *truly* bombed tonight. There wasn't one "My eyes!" horror. Even Johnny's is just boring.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I actually didn't like the trench coat. I would have liked it to be a color, I think, but keep the "fur" on the collar and sleeves natural. Almost like a shearling coat.

And I disagree with their assesment of Gordanna's dress. I really liked it.

Altheia's was my favorite. Again.

I lied -- the "punk" thing was a disaster.

I loved, loved, loved Carol Hannah's, though Christopher's is really a stand-out, too.

And I agree about the coat in one sense, Aims -- I would have preferred she dyed it or something.

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

Althea hit it out of the park. I think Christopher's looked like a costume. Irina's coat is ugly to me, but I'm amazed at the craft she achieved. I want Jonny and the other whiner to get the boot.

Well, good on the elimination. Not sure about the winner.

Wow. I don't think I've ever seen Tim badmouth someone. He was pissed!

Damn Tim. He really was pissed.
