Could someone watching the show please let me know which designers were featured in the castings? I'm rather interested. If Sunny Fong shows up, I will be a happy little Canadian :D

[seishin]

Didnt see Sunny Fong. I remember Untld, Pink Tartan (who was REALLY harsh on the girls), something that started with a 'C' (Cassius?), Jay's own line.

Thanks! Sunny is -way- too classy for this show, haha.

I think I watch more out of a feeling of habit/obligation than anything. ANTM is my guilty pleasure and I will probably watch it until Tyra dies... (cuz you know that's how long it'll be on).

I am really confused about the treatment of this cycle, though. This has got to be the least-hyped cycle I've ever seen. It's like the producers don't even care anymore, even though the prizes are completely nuts.

[__plastique_]

hey, what are the prizes this time?

[__plastique_]

nvm, google is my friend, but HOLYYY SHIT thats soo much!

[rakugo_report]

right???? it's getting a little obscene. D:

I watched up until 2 weeks ago when that new awful judge was so rude. Now I'm done.

[philstar22]

See, I don't get this. Maybe I'm missing something. It seemed to me, though, that while the new judge was slightly rude, Louise was the one who was completely rude and out of line to someone who was her boss. And yet the overwhelming reaction of other fans has been pro-Louise and anti-new judge. Don't get me wrong, I think the new judge was somewhat rude, and the video that she posted afterwards was so completely unprofessional. But I still think Louise was worse, and I'm surprised that others don't feel that way.

[butterbuns]

yeah, I'm hugely anti-Kelly but it wasn't that big of a deal till Louise tripped balls. Like, she told her not to run, k, chill.

[barnacleboo]

To be honest I was a little surprised too - but I guess I'd been expecting something far worse from what I read on here and having seen that video first, etc. I very much dislike Kelly but it was a bit surprising to see Louise's blow up. However she was exhibiting more than average signs of stress with the thumb biting and scratching and I can't imagine what was causing it. I'm pleased she left, if only for her own sanity, you know?

[loveartlife]

I wonder if they'll be doing any of the bigger shows like Pink Tartan and Joe Fresh. I'm sure one of the shows will be Attitude Jay Manuel.

[butterbuns]

Doesn't it air on ctv2 at the same time as the CW?

[laminy]

Nope. It used to, and it should, but somewhere along the line, it got a week behind. I just watched last week's episode on there.

I thought it was on MUCH now....huh.
