I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Because books.

I've liked Michael all season, but that felt really put on to me, like total melodrama for more screen time. I actually hope that's true, though, because if he was really that gutted, everyone should worry.

I was so underwhelmed by Gretchen's collection. And I didn't Nina was pregnant! But I guess in the time between the last episode and last night, she would have had time to pop.

Art Crawl!!!

I think that Andy got in because that green dress beat out all 3 of Michael's looks.

I was also underwhelmed by Gretchen's collection. At the moment, I'm not seeing anyone else but Mondo winning.

Me either, sumi. But I do think Mondo completely deserves it. I think he has as much talent as Christian did/does.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I think I'm with sumi and Amy...that seemed like a bit of an overreaction to me. He was upset clearly, but some of his reaction didn't hit me as totally real. I was uncomfortable with it all because usually people try to hold it together a bit so that the winners can celebrate their victory.

I have liked Michael generally up to this point, but how long it went on seemed a bit much.

I have to admit though, I would love to sob into Tim Gunn's neck.

Yes, this. But the upside was that it gave Tim the opportunity to lob an F-bomb, which was hysterical and touching at the same time.

I don't understand Gretchen's line at all. Who in the heck is gonna wear her stuff but her? It is butt-ugly!

Oh, I missed that. I'll have to go back and watch it. Har. Tim Gunn saying fuck.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I don't like Michael. I do hope he's okay, though.

I agree Mondo should win. I don't think I've liked a single outfit Gretchen made all season. I like Andy's stuff, and it's impressive that he put it all together so quickly, but he's just not quite as consistent as Mondo.

I really want to see Andy's fabrics. I loved that green dress (although it was too short, did you see the model do a subtle tug down of the skirt as she turned for her final pose? Very well done.)

I also think that one of the reasons why they liked the leather outfit of Gretchen's is that the model worked the SHIT out of it. A good model with a strong walk can make a weak outfit look stronger.

Oh, and my reaction was "Don't get snot on Tim Gunn's lapaels!"

Punishingly Intricate

Gretchen's clothes were HIDEOUS! Really really bad.
