Here is the relevant part of the article: While Bravo did not announce when it expects to broadcast Project Runway 3, the third season casting application -- also released as part of today's announcement -- would appear to hint that now that Project Runway has firmly established itself as far and away Bravo's biggest hit, the network plans to move the show from its present once-a-year schedule to the twice-a-year format typically adopted by most popular reality competition series. Thanks Tim B! Also,here is an interview with Daniel V.

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...and here I thought we were going to get a break!
I skimmed the bottom part of the article where it describes how the new format would work and it just sounds like the season 3 finalists will have even less time to prepare their final designs.
won't that degrade the quality of the show?
i as well! (laura k's response.)
This worries me. More is not necessarily better. I agree with all of the doubters here about the hazards: a diluted talent pool and overexposure of the product can very easily lessen the fun.
There's only one American Idol "season" per year, right? And it lasts a couple of months? Right? That's kind of a successful formula.... : )
JK - just when we thought we might be able to take a vacation...
I think its time for a "Dear Producers" post!
Seriously, I NEED a vacation. NYC here I come!
this is great! Now they can do spring and fall fashion week. I wonder if they'll start showing this next season earlier, then?
sandy j--I was logging on to say just that. Get your facts straight!
More seasons in a year worries me a bit--it is reality tv though. How long before they start adding other twists like boys vs. girls, or recent grads vs. older designers...
Does anyone know how long it takes each season to tape? Are they having a challenge every week or every couple of days?
I too agree that more is more always better.
oops meant to write more is NOT always better.
katiecoo - Emmett reported to us earlier that Season 2 taped from June 1 through July 3, 2005.
Season 1 was shot in August 2004. There is a very thin window around the summer session at Parsons where filming could occur.
They could very well shoot this in a studio or someplace else (they originally looked at space in the Atlas). But then the show would lose some of its charm, wouldn't it?
Hmmmm.......it would make sense to have two seasons coinciding with the 2 big Fashion Weeks. I think it could work.
Now that Bravo's lived through the process twice, I'm sure they have ways of cutting through the muck and streamlining processes.
We'll just have to wait and see.
So are they going to do NY Fashion Week and LA Fashion Week?
Spring vs Fall collections?
I think it's not a bad idea, but they shouldn't start it this year IMO...wait until the next go round....
Aj, I think both Fashion Shows would be in New York. Who knows? It's not really confirmed. We'll have to wait and see!
Maybe they could have just one season and extend it? I think the beginning designers are auffed too quickly and we've all said that we'd love to see more designing, more fun time, more runway, more judging. Maybe two episodes for each challenge? They wouldn't have to extend the taping time significantly, just use all that footage we don't get to see. Make the challenges a bit more complicated with a little more time? I'm a little fearful, too. I don't want the Sopranos schedule but I can't take this. I'll lose my job and my family is going to lock me away.
