ANTM: I was totally bummed about Kayla! Ann's Cover Girl commercial should be awesome.

Calvin's grating, but that skirt/cape thing was pretty cool. I can't decide if it is good or bad that the house has no input as to who goes home. I guess the judges can take into account the personality dynamics they see.

I wonder if that lame "product demo" at WalMart's parking lot was in lieu of an actual commerical because next week is a stupid clip show and the week after is the runway show w/ RC. I miss the commercial - sometimes it 's the best part of ANTM.
On Fashion Show: I love Calvin as a reality show character, but I'd hate to have to deal with him as a real person. I did think his skirt into a cape dress was kind of fierce. And honestly, he's a better designer for sure than the girl who let the team talk her into putting that horrid little ruffle smack dab in the middle of her plain, satin tube dress. More tricks than a hooker. You gotta love Iman!
What kat said.
Also, I think it's pretty clear the judges are observing the personal dynamics, given who they chose to move to the other team. (More to create drama than to spare the original team, I'm assuming.) I wouldn't want the teams to have more say than what they spill on the runway in the ousters. Michael Costello would have been gone from PR in week 2 in that sort of set-up, for example.
It'll be interesting to see what effect the swap has on the two houses next week. Really, with just the one elimination I can't get a feel for how that aspect works for me yet.
Hey, has Bravo(?) done any more seasons of "Make Me A Supermodel"? I really liked that one, it felt more real.
I think what I'm not getting about The Fashion Show is how it's going to work when it gets down to three, or ever four, designers. The competition is going to be pretty fiercely individual at that stage, but they keep talking about the houses and the "ultimate collection."
The houses are going to change as people get eliminated, especially if one house keeps losing designers.
Yeah, it seems at some point they are going to have to let go of the house aspect. But it does add an interesting dynamic to the competition right now.
meara, I think MMaS is caput, which is a shame because I agree that it was in all ways superior to ANTM - better models, better challenges, better judges. And lots of those kids work. I miss that show.
As I recall, as the season progresses, they do some change ups.
