I actually think Vanessa's look SHOULD have been launched... into space.

At least they're not adding the fake audience cheers this time as each design walks out.

I think I lived Merle's and Kevin's best, but I wasn't looking too closely. ;-)

Oliver the cheers, were likely real. They ask the audience to cheer crazily for ALL the dresses. Or at least they did with us.

I'm watching but not caring, it's a stupid show. The whole premise is farked.

I had the volume a little lower for eppy #2 (the husband was asleep), but I didn't detect any crowd noise for any of them this time. |

They made us watch all the lines three times: once to vote, once to clap our asses off for every outfit, and once so they could apparently get new camera
angles.
Worst part is they filmed D2's bland entrance several times. And it was as monotone every time. |

Interesting show.
They present these people as mostly wack-jobs, but the stuff they put out, for the most part, is on par or better than PR. The expert touch, probably. I'm getting real sick of that bossy black affirmative action woman. She may leave, thanks very much. |

Why is she an "affirmative action" woman?
|
|||

She's a consultant who contracts out to big companies who either want to sell to black people, or do not want to offend black people resulting in bad press
and an Al Sharpton-type thing, or want to show the Federal government that they do business with black-owned businesses.
All bullshit. |

Even if what you say is true, that doesn't make her "affirmative action" though.

On PR, you get until midnight that night, and then maybe 2 hours the following day. And, even though most of the contestants here aren't professionals with a sewing machine, they can provide an extra set of hands for draping, and whatnot. |

I love when they disagree with their experts and then the judges side with the contestant.

I watched like twenty minutes of this show last night and was terribly confused so turned it off. WTF.

Hilarious that his expert ever let him use wool for a "beachy look." And black, no less. OMG. Maybe the beach in Antarctica.
I am actually kind of enjoying parts of this show. I like that the look requires teamwork, though choices of teams are highly suspect. I actually like that they HAVE to do this together for both to win... though I wish they had each as contestants, rather than always calling the non-professional the contestant. I also like that they look at the construction of the work after it hits the runway, before deciding who goes home (which may have saved Jewelry girl. What ruins this show? Obvious. The big boobs (Double D) and the judges. Double D look so scattered and uncomfortable, and probably could bring out internalized homophobia in Paul Lynde if he were still alive. Ugh with the uber-gayness. The judges are scary old hags who seem to think we want to hear what they have to say; but it always sounds, to me, more like some wealthy maven looking down on those who do not understand the nuances of her furs than rational judging. |

the double d's are a mess. i want to slap them. black for the beach does not bother me, i like black bathing suits. they should have put drawcords in the
sides of the shorts on david's romper and when you pulled them, it would have been a rusched 50's bathing suit. but wool? no.
