The only problem I can see with that final challenge is that the point of the Bryant Park show isn't just the judges, it's also a chance to show off a collection to potential buyers. Getting to that point is a huge part of why people participate in the show to begin with.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Right. There will be people there who don't watch Project Runway, plus being a designer will get you into events where you can meet people and network.

Yeah, to do a final challenge like that, the challenges all through would have to be designed to leave room for a consistent theme or color palette or something. And nothing made out of tablecloths or coffee filters or whatever. Not that I would mind that, but then again some really interesting garments have come out of the weirdest challenges.

Christopher's crying over his choosing unusual inspirations was driving me bonkers. Didn't he see Season 2, when one of the guys chose a puddle flowing into a storm drain for inspiration? Now, that's unusual!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I literally feel out of my chair laughing at Christopher. I thought it was the fuinniest thing I've seen on TV in ages.

I was so annoyed when he started crying. I hate the cryers. I get that you're all into your art and shit, but godddamit, be a professional! There's no crying in baseball OR fashion.

What was sad was Christopher's dress could have worked if he hadn't used that stiff fabric for the skirt. Who sees a waterfall and thinks, "Ooh, something heavy! Something that doesn't move!" He should have used really filmy silk or something that would *ripple*.

One thing that really bums me out about this season is the lack of color. Barring a few pieces in a few challenges, everything's been greys, blacks, beiges.
I actually liked Christopher's dress last night. Althea made another hot mess. I also didn't get how Carol Hannah's dress was "well made". I'm happy she got through, but I thought her model looked all bumpy and lumpy coming the runway.

me either. I thought that she was going to get ripped for the wierd lumps and wrinkles. It looked much better standing still than moving.
