Anyone in for a pre-party--happy hour?

Cheers!

Here's to a great show!

AJ said...

I got a glass of Sauvignon Blanc by my side Jan:)

Let the hour be happy!

TiredMama said...

ok, I guess I have to come out and admit this is one of my guilty pleasures. And I can't wait...

Jan the Dan Fan said...

divine calm--as a Daniel fan, I'll even admit that I thought his skating outfit made Rebecca look like she had a tummy.
She couldn't possibly have a tummy!

OOH Here we go!

AJ said...

Yay:) It's starting!

grudge girl said...

Please tell me you guys read the recaps of this show on Television Without Pity. Because the "Previously" just cracked me up when they showed Andrae freaking out over the walk-off, and I remembered the recapper's phrase, "Andrae just completed his transformation into "The Scream," by Edvard Munsch. (sp?) BWAH!

If you haven't read the recaps there, you absolutely MUST!

AJ said...

*makes drinks for everyone*

I'm quite the bartender ya know?

Jan the Dan Fan said...

aj-not as glam as you. I have a Heinekin. But it's in a wine glass!

grudge girl said...

OMG. Just imagine if Tim Gunn showed up at your house!

AJ said...

10:02- OHHHH...it's a garden party!

10:03- DV looks terrified about picking models right now. Tarah has officially been scr*wed.

10:04- LMAO! The models all just group air-hugged.

AJ said...

Who else is just as excited that 35D is still in tact?

They're so cute on the roof:)

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Roof shot from Nick's blog.

AJ said...

Jan...LMAO! I love it!

This bottle was 11 whole dollars of Blanc...not as classy as it seems;)

On another note, another field trip!

H said...

TARAH, NO!!!!!!

erin said...

21H! We know where the girls live!

Jan the Dan Fan said...

I see Corn Husk Disaster Part Two.

H said...

i hope they learned from austin's mistake with the corn husks...don't let the leaves dry out!

AJ said...

Nick, you're scaring me babe.

He's already discouraged:( I refuse to believe that he's out tonight...you're all wrong!

erin said...

All of the designers look like they are going to vomit upon hearing the details of the challenge.

Of course, Daniel was calm under pressure.

grudge girl said...

I hate this challenge so much, yo. How, exactly, does this have anything to do with sewing, or pattern-making, or draping, or, like, ACTUAL GARMENT CONSTRUCTION?

It's creative, I get. But just LAME at this point. Especially with the immunity attached.

HATE!

AJ said...

Those random stills of DV fake freaking out were too adroable.

I liked Andrae better with a bit of hair...the total bare look isn't working so much for me. Still loving him though...

OMG, they look a little homeless with the shopping carts!

and ps- Chloe's outift is adorable...I dig that skirt!

erin said...

Did you catch that cute hair flip Daniel did when Chloe complimented him? If my hair was short, I would totally copy it.

AJ said...

no ish...DV has only been designing for three years...when did he get so good?

I'm no good at basketball either DV...it's okay. And I'm a super tall female. The entire world figures I should be good, but my coordination is not so hot.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Daniel knows the area 'cause he's a genius! (Have I mentioned that I just adore him?)
oh, and he's lived in NYC for the past few years.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Is anyone else nervous that Daniel has NOT been shown in the newest PR commercials?

AJ said...

Commercial break- Can we please assess how stupid this challenge is?

Who makes an outfit for a garden party out of...well, garden?!

Plus immunity...aj is not a happy viewer right now...

I lied, I'm happy...just perturbed...

grudge girl said...

SQUEE! Project Jay!

Tbone said...

Greetings to the party thread! Hey, I didn't know you guys were drinking tonight. I'm hanging out in the wrong room...

TiredMama said...

I loved Nick's comment "I had to stya in till the @#@$ make a dress out of plants challenge!"

H said...

efff you, commercials!

AJ said...

Awesome, Kara is a pothead!

Santino's drawing looks nice...I can work with that.

AJ said...

I'll be okay...lol

*hands tbone a glass of wine*

Jan the Dan Fan said...

aj--also a very tall girl--but the clumsiest!!! First nosebleed was from trying to play basketball.

uh oh-I hope Daniel won't be in trouble with the flowers.

Chloe's "skirt" is a strapless dress. So cute!

Jan the Dan Fan said...

I love the Daniel's weaving idea!

Where is Andrae???

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Baaa.

He's our little lamb.

erin said...

What happened to Andrae?!??

AJ said...

Kara is verbally giving up already...

I like the neck on Nick's already! Too bad he is down on material...Nick, don't do this to me!

Tino's leaves are gorge!

"What happened to Andrae?"

Oh god, I'm dying here!

"He's our little lamb. Carry on."

I'm laughing SO hard!

H said...

oo, this means chloe will move away from her tradmark blue hues... cool.

-good, andrae planned for things to be dead.

-kara = so lost, poor thing

-danny v knows how to pick out flowers... why can't straight boys do that?

-nick's looks like it would hurt to hug

-santino... what garden party is he going to? geroge of the jungle's?

LMFAO SANTINO COULD DO TIM GUNN'S PODCAST & WE WOULD NEVER KNOW!

grudge girl said...

Santino! That rocks! He is completely cracking me up!

Shhhh! I'm going to wake up the kids!

grudge girl said...

Flotsam and Jetsam are totally this week's vocabulary words!

AJ said...

OMG...I'm tearing up over here over Tino! Andrae and Tim in an affair..."We're gonna try to make this work."

*crying*!!

erin said...

Ooo, we're getting a personal glimpse into Daniel...and Nick....and Chloe's biggest fear is dating a gay guy.

"Andrae, you really embarassed me tonight at Red Lobster."

Even if Santino gets Aufed, I want him to come back on and do his Timpressions.

H said...

santino's just asking for some more ecotic fanfic on his blog now... Tim + Andrae = hott love.

AJ said...

Daniel had me almost actually crying. It's so sad to not be able to express yourself freely.

Stupid restrictions on life...

Jyesika said...

op. I'm not so sure about Andre's design. I really hope it looks better on the runway!

Daniel's rocks so far.

AJ said...

I agree about the doormat comment for Andrae:(

I picked him to win too...poop

Tim is confronting Santino...this is awesome!

"I'm verklempt!"

LOVES IT!!!

My face is burning up I'm laughing so hard!

grudge girl said...

Love Nick's. Love Dan's.

Andrae's, bless him, IS an astroturf doormat. He should just glue on "WELCOME" in baby's breath and be done with it.

And some scuff marks.

erin said...

I am crying right now!

Now, whenever Tim talks to Andrae, I think about them arguing at Red Lobster.

grudge girl said...

You know, whatever Kara was doing on the bust of her dress was pretty.

H said...

CHLOE! oh damn, she quoted zulema... c'mon, chloe... you're my favorite girl....

ugh, not more commercials.

AJ said...

"I'm sending a bush down the runway."

This show is SO quotable!

jodequa- DV was saying that he only came out to his parents this past year and that he has yet to tell a former girlfriend. Nick was saying something about his family figuring it out on their own since he dressed well and did other "gay" things. I don't remember specifics...

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Daniel is beautiful inside and out!!!

Wait do you think Laura's gonna mind that we're drinking and checking out the smokability of their dresses?

AJ said...

a, me too!

I'm not going to be happy unless Kara gets the boot tonight *shrugs*

I got a one in six chance of PR happiness...

grudge girl said...

I want to see the accessory wall!

AJ said...

I like Santino's so far!

erin said...

Did you catch Andrae's curious glances around the room when Tim mentioned the Banana Republic Accessory Wall?

AJ said...

jodequa, he also mentioned the living in Michigan was sort of bible beltish and that it wasn't quite acceptable :(

H said...

kara's dress looks sexy.

andrae reminds me of a prarie dog...

was this the first mention of the b-rep accesorry wall?

BG said...

Our theme for today is "Don't Stop Working"!

AJ said...

I am not a fan of Chloe's "skull cap" for Grace! Chloe is not looking positive right now...

H said...

aw, kara & chloe help each other out... grrrrl power!

AJ said...

I stand by the fact that this is the stupidest challenge for the final 6!

grudge girl said...

Rachel looks really pretty, I think, with those yellowy-balls forming a little Alice band in her blonde hair. I'm rooting for her now. I can't resist an underdog. Plus, NICK!

writingblind said...

Anybody else thinking that doormat remark is directed at Andrae?

H said...

stop whining, models & do your job. this is seriously one of those shut up & look pretty kind of things.

-how could nina expect something? has she done this challenge before?

H said...

oh, btw, this is my first time at a posting party... am I posting too much random junk/too frequently?

writingblind said...

Anybody else thinking that doormat remark is directed at Andrae?

writingblind said...

Anybody else thinking that doormat remark is directed at Andrae?

grudge girl said...

WORD, aj!

This show has always been the best of any reality show, by FAR, because it was based on actual talent and skill.

This isn't quite a jump-the-shark moment for me, but it's definitely disappointing.

AJ said...

I'm thinking that my picks of Andrae winning and Kara being aufed are not so much correct right now.

I gotta say though, if Andrae gets booted on this challenge I am going to be super mad. Designers are not meant to make a dress of leaves and flowers, they're meant to work with fabric...

He's clearly talented based on his progress in this show and if he goes tonight because of this STUPID challenge it just won't make sense.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

I LOVE the blue of Daniel's dress! It catches your eye more than the other dresses.

How can anyone NOT love him??? Did he not just capture your heart?
This is the BEST episode ever-and it's not the drinks talking!

Marley Gibson said...

Yeah...Grace's leafy skull cap just ain't working for me. Although, I have to say, Chloe pulled it off.

If Rachel can walk the walk, Nick might have a win tonight!

= )

AJ said...

jennie, not at all! I'm typing my little fingers off!

And Jan, how tall are you? I trip UP the stairs...no lie!

AJ said...

mhgibson, I agree! Nick's was looking quite nice, as was Santino's and dare I say...Kara's?

I want to see a better shot of DV's before making a final FINAL choice...

erin said...

I voted for Nick to win and for Kara to be out.

Keep Andrae! It's not his time to go!

H said...

thank you, aj & divine :) I'm just so exicted to find someone else that watches this... high schoolers are more american idol than OR

love heidi's hair & makeup...not so much white dress

grudge girl said...

What the hell is Heidi wearing?

From the rear, it looked like she had a giant sweatshirt wrapped around her ass!

AJ said...

shut up! Badgley Mischka is there!

oooooh...Chloe's looks nice...

AJ said...

I started to review these individually...couldn't

This challenge is so dumb...

erin said...

Overall, I am pretty impressed with the plant designs.....but Andrae's is sort of sad in comparison to the rest.

H said...

danny v- gorgeous color usage

nick-aw, he's so proud!

chloe- looks wearable

santino-loveee the mesh

andrae-g'bye, love, it's the doormat.

kara-i'd buy it if it weren't perishable

think they can auction these off?

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Chloe's dress is gorgeous.

H said...

"green is the new black"-michael kors

& how lucky am I that I just learned this summer I could wear green.

NO! NICK!!!! I LOVE YOU! DON'T GO HOME!

AJ said...

Andrae is biting it...I am not happy!

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Oh no. I think 35D is getting split.
Ooh, I think the blue is gonna get Daniel the win!!! Hee! Hee!

H said...

omfg, watch kara win. & nick go home... are you kidding me?

there's the doormat comment! please, fawn over dannv some more.

oh, & who are these guest judges?

oooooo knock at the germans...

grudge girl said...

Oh NO!

My Nick!

Marley Gibson said...

I will CRY my eyes out if it's Nick...

Jyesika said...

awh, I think Andre will definetly be out. Unfortunate, I think last week showed he had incredible skill. They can't possibly knock out Nick, I thought the shape is really interesting.
Daniel should win, from the basket weave and flowers!

grudge girl said...

Thanks, a!

I'm afraid to look at Tim's Take.

Marley Gibson said...

I think Daniel V. has another victory in his pocket. And the last is going to come down to Nick and Andrae with Andrea out...I mean, if it has to be one of them, I don't want it to be Nick. Santino eeeeks by...as do Chloe and Kara.

I'm sorry...but if one of the guys did the glued on leaf dress like Chloe, they'd get told it looked "unfinished."

I can't take it...

Marley :|

H said...

vote from my mom & sister for andrae to go home & while kara should win, danny v probably will.

I hope nick stays... I love him so much. i'm just not an andrae fan.

H said...

should I look at tim's take yet?

H said...

lol, my mom just changed the channel instead of the volume... I flipped out. like, full on gasp & scream at the same time.

erin said...

daniel does it again! 4-peat (and immunity!)

i think he knows his lil buddy is gonna be out....

H said...

i am so done with danny v winning these things. i love the kid, really, but this is ridiculous. remember that time danny v didn't need the immunity?

omg omg omg omg nick & andrae....

H said...

UGH> THANK GOD.

grudge girl said...

A promising preview!

Sounds like fun. At least they'll have to design for actual people with actual bodies. (No offense, modelistas.)

Marley Gibson said...

Bye Andrae....we'll miss you...

Thank God Nick isn't out!

erin said...

"Only one person's allowed to cry on the runway"

"I felt like I was this angel and I was floating above the street."

"This is what I do."

- So cute, Andrae. We'll miss you.

H said...

ooooooo m new episode looks dramatic!

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Thank frickin goodness this show repeats itself now.
That was so great--and next week's looks even better!
And my Daniel will be here for quite a while!!!! I can breathe again.

H said...

okay...time to watch it again!

g'night everybody :) it's time to do some homework

writingblind said...

There's some great bonus videos on the Bravo website for all you Dan fans.

grudge girl said...

rebecca, did you see the one of Tim in 35D? Too funny.

He used the word squalor to describe their digs. GOD I lurve him so much!

writingblind said...

I haven't gotten that far. I'm still exploring Daniel V.'s potential bisexuality.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

thanks Rebecca

Off to the Bravo site to see more of Daniel!!
See you in a bit.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

What will Santino's "Tim Gunn" do now that Andrae is gone???
Will he bring someone else to the Red Lobster?

Robin said...

"...Awndrae...cheer up...I'm taking you to Red Lobster..."

Robin said...

OMG, GMTA, Jan! LOL (enough initials, yet?)

Robin said...

Notify the Federation, I've joined the Dark Side==================>

TiredMama said...

Anyone read Tim's blog yet? I love the little comment at the end of his description of Andrae's dress. (I won't spoil it for those who haven't read it yet)

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Robin--"enough initials?"
YES. I only learned how to listen to my cell phone messages this past summer--clueless when it comes to "text" abreviations.

And aj--5'9'', to answer your question from WAAAAAY before. Was almost there before high school. Own my own set of nice aluminum crutches due to the amount of "trips" that I've had.

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Bravo is teasing me!

Just saw the even newer commercial for PR, "And then there five" and Daniel was in it looking so cute in baby blue!

LauraK said...

Wow! Great job, to all - thanks so much, it's almost as good as watching the show! It was really cute how you threw in the personal stuff too like what you were drinking and how tall you were. I mean, that's kind of like the commercial breaks. As though we were all in a room together, right?

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Hi Laura.
Welcome home.
So you don't mind that we literally partied a bit during the party?
Excellent show!

Jan the Dan Fan said...

Daniel will be making(has made) a collection for Fashion Week then, right?

Top 4 did last season.

Dorian said...

What was Kara saying to Nick - crying - in the waiting room in next week's preview ?
He shushes her right after like she's talking about somebody else in the room.

The Scarlett said...

Dang it, I fell asleep during the second showing.

Did anyone mention that Chloe was going to have Grace help her after makeup?

The Scarlett said...

Also, Santino wanted to win so that he could design something horrible next week with immunity.

Heidi had bad roots and her big, white pumps coupled with spa duvet cover dress left me with a 'what was she thinking in front of team Badgley Mischka?' feeling. Full-on fug, Ms. Klum!

AJ said...

Blogger wigged on me last night and wouldn't let me post!

I'm 5'9" too! Maybe all tall, female, PR fans just happen to be mad clumsy :)

Seal just came on my radio...made me think of Heidi...lol

Anonymous said...

Since I couldn't get on the thread last night- I just wanted to add that the lack of the usual reality show back stabbing and hyped up venom on PR really delights me, and because it is atypical, it really is a lot more surprising and unexpected than the nasty drama that is contrived on other shows. It actually feels a lot better to watch people be creative, considerate, and diligent than to watch people being phony, cliched, and rank. PS - Daniel strikes me as one of the most mature 20-something men I have ever seen, and yet, playful - wow! You may have grown up in a restrictive town, but your family must be awesome.
