SO TENSE!

Apr 22, 2010 23:10

Watching the Project Runway finale, I realized that, in all the seasons I've been watching, the person I wanted to win always has. And that's from the beginning! Save for the last season (SNOOZE-A-RAMA), I had a favorite almost from the beginning, and they've always won ( Read more... )

I'm very happy that Seth Aaron won (and Tim was completely right about reconceptualizing the line). But I'm even more happy Emilio lost. People that smug and superior need not to be proved right. Did you watch the reunion show? (I know, probably not.) Because I have no respect for Jay anymore. At all. And Emilio took the loss just as well as Pushenko (sp?) did his loss at the Olympics. Which is to say, in an amusingly bitter and petty way.

Yay Seth Aaron! trinityvixen April 23 2010, 14:49:09 UTC

We did watch the full show, so we were all literally stunned speechless with Jay's snippiness. Everyone was falling all over themselves to apologize for every mean word spoken, and he decided to stand out by being not just bitchy but rude for no reason. What a cockface.

Emilio looked devastated by losing, to the point that I almost felt sorry for him. Until he opened his mouth, of course. I still don't like his collection. I nearly had a conniption when it looked like he could win because UGH. My great grandmother only wore clothes like that, in those colors, because it was the goddamned depression. Sheesh.

Well, all of the apologies were of the disingenuous variety. Especially Emilio's. "Well, we're great friends now. It's all good." Um...look at her face. No you're not. And saying that is just a way to invalidate and silence her. So urgh ( ... )

The reunion show always makes me uncomfortable. It's all about airing grievances for more drama, which is just...ugh. Unless someone is being a bully, a repeat-offending jerk-wad, you have to give them some leeway. These are people under constant stress. Look at how much more relaxed Mila and Seth Aaron both looked coming back to the show after their break. (Not Emilio, strangely. He looked more worn down than ever.) These people are in a meat grinder, and they're all going to make crazy talk and be bitchy at one time or another. Stuff that goes on during the show, again, unless it's bullying, has to get a little more of a pass ( ... )

Yay Seth Aaron!! And yes, Jay was horrible at the reunion show. Apparently he was a dick to Tim Gunn all season but they never showed it. He was lucky he got a nice edit.

I can't believe Jay was a jerk. He was such a non-entity in most of the episodes. It's so weird that Emilio was much loathed by everyone, but we only really saw his bitchiness towards the end, and even then, not so much as you could figure out why he was so reviled. Jay got positively sympathetic edits, especially against Mila, who? Maybe not such a bitch after all. Wow.
