I hate to say it, but I’m actually kind of bored with Project Runway this year. Of course, I’m still watching every episode, but it just seems to have lost it’s spark. I know it isn’t some weird Lifetime bias, although it does seem to have a lot more commercials this year. All the elements are there – the guy who cries all the time, the super edgy designer and the token bitch to stir up anger and controversy, but for whatever reason, I’m just not that invested this year.
It makes me a little sad when I lose my attachment to a program, it’s like outgrowing a friend, in a way. Don’t get me wrong, I still love Tim Gunn as much as I always have, but at this point that might not be enough.
Maybe this year was just a lackluster cast, maybe things will be back on track next season, I just don’t know if I’ll stick around to see it.
