Yeah, he looks like 23 years of rough road.

Wesley's snug high-waters do not bode well for him in this competition. Can't say much more for all the guys with long pants and flipflops with attitude - yes you, Blayne and Keith.

Jerrell looks like he jumped out of Oliver! and hasn't changed clothes in 15 years.

Suede already wins points for the blue tuft and the badass attitude pose some of those 23 year-olds could better pull off.

So far I like Jennifer Kelli and Korto of the girls.

Blayne thinks he's Blaise. Too much sunbed..

And Joan Jett should have gone home, actually both of them should have gone home.

Can't remember how to use spoilers, so I'll be vague.

My favorites so far are the ones who were actually first and second and the guys who's a father. Though I hated what the person who went home did, I thought they'd have some very interesting ideas and hoped for a longer stay. I must say I thought the mohawk guy deserved to go for his 'effort'.

I honestly have no idea what was going on in the judges minds. I thought that cup dress they praised was retarded and their third fave, the Afro-centric Big Bird dress (with veggies!), was hideous.

I think the eps final decision probably was a little behind the scenes influenced- keep the wiseass, good for a soundbite old rocker chick, ditch the guy with the most designer clout to send a message. I just cannot see how on an artistic level they could appreciate her thrown together garbage over his ghostly/serial killer piece, so it had to be the producers suggesting to keep the one with more personality.

I also kept getting Kenley & Emily and Leanne & Jennifer confused as possibly the same people cause they kinda' similar.

The cup was dress was very creative, and it looked great considering the time given to them.

That Leann chick reminds me of one of those movies where the lead actress makes herself look nerdy by wearing glasses and no makeup.

This show only makes me angry anymore. It's so obvious that they keep the more flamboyant types around, despite having less talent. Puck syndrome, I call it. I mean, seriously, they keep bringing back Austin from series one. Why? He was a LOSER! (Not my personal opinion, he actually did not win.) I'll tell you why...because he's [sing] faaaabulous! [/sing]. So obvious and so lame.

You have a point but I think they also brought him back because he was the winner of that same challenge when it kicked off Season 1.

I know one thing. I would not be upset at all if they kep having shirtless shots of Keith getting out of bed! WOOF!!

I was wondering if that is going to be a theme this season. Keep repeating past challenges and bring back the winner.

IIRC, Entertainment Weekly...

Spoiler:
...mentioned that is indeed going to happen -- a retrospect of sorts on the show's five-year Bravo run before it heads to Lifetime.

so, was Blayne using his "girlicious" line in an attempt to be Christian from last season ("fierce")? If so, he better stop or they better kcik him off.

The judges made the right decision by getting rid of the worst-dressed competitors on the show (really, short shorts?).

I realize it's only two eps., but I'm not seeing a lot of promise in the rest of the designers. Kenley and Kelli look like front-runners, but there doesn't seem to be near the creative energy, talent, and fun that last year's group brought to the show.

Suede, Blayne, Korto, and Stella are already some of the most annoying designers to ever appear on this show.

I totally agree!
I wanted him gone from the moment he started whining about the awful fabric his model got for him.
A really good designer can create a garment from anything.

The dress that won this week was ugly! The other person's skirt/blouse combo was much better.

I'm gonna disagree with you there.

Kenlee's dress was very well executed, and I was surprised when I Saw the materials she picked out. Leanne's was a very close second for me though..



This week I liked

Joe'
Kenlee
Leanne


the rest were various stages of okay.

Blayne's was just as bad as Emilys, and we knew Stella would be throwing some leather at us soon.
