Hell has frozen over

I'm hooked on a reality tv show.

No, seriously. Me. Me.

Obviously, this means it's the best most amazing reality show on television and you all should start watching it immediately. It's called Project Runway and it's on Bravo. A group of aspiring designers (and models) are competing for a prize etc. First of all, what better source of drama than a bunch of highstrung drama queen designers? There's no stupid manipulation, you just turn on the cameras and watch ferpetesakes. You also get some really beautiful amazing couture, which satisfies my inner gay man so much.

Go find it on your local schedule and watch. I mean it! There will be a quiz.

We we

who would never watch a reality show; sometimes watch "Nanny 911" it makes us feel like better parents.

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

Well obviously you are already amazing parents. :)

Wasn't looking for that, but we'll take it, Thanks!

i have already been sucked into this show. isn't it great? almost fell out of my chair that you're watching and loving it...but then again, marcus does exist and has fought his way out for this particular program for sure. Project Runway has been keeping me up too late on wednesday nights. austin (the overly effeminate super gay designer) cracks me up. brilliant. smashing. wonderful. we'll now be able to discuss. ;)

Austin is fabulous and amazing. His designs are absolutely gorgeous, too. We just watched the Banana Republic challenge, and Big Gay Biker Jesus' Chrysler Building-inspired dress was fa-reaking DIVINE. I was pleasantly surprised by Wendy's lovely little cocktail dress; I was very much in favor of the cape, for the record. Loved the collar.

Yes, we will talk about this show. Perhaps over lattes. Perhaps tomorrow. ;)

[virginmartyr1.livejournal.com]

oo yay brilliant (about the possibility of lattes and Project Runway talk tomorrow). lots to talk about...will eventually post, but it's just been a fairly exhausting day. give me a call or email or whatever and let me know if you're feeling up for getting together tomorrow.

i don't normally care much for fashion and really didn't plan on watching the show at all...i thought it looked stupid. little did i know, huh

Did you guys watch "He's a Lady"? We got totally sucked into that. It was brilliant and the challenges were great and the winner was superb!

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

I've never heard of it, what's it about? Drag queens?

He's A Lady

[sexxyred1.livejournal.com]

Nope not drag queens, "real" American He-Men! It was sooo fabulous! Here's the story: As the show opens, eleven men temporarily leave behind their wives and girlfriends for a chance to win a quarter of a million dollars. The guys think they're going to be on a show called "All American Man," competing in grueling physical and mental challenges. But the catch is more than they ever imagined: The guys will actually be transformed and given the chance to see what life is like living as a lady, with one man winning a huge prize in the end. The final question was: What as a lady have you learned about being a man?

Okay, now this sounds really interesting! What a neat trick concept; I wonder who thought it up?

[madenglishbloke.livejournal.com]

**sigh**
reality tv is to televisionwhat virtual reality was to computers - it looked interesting for 2 minut4es, until people realised thatit sucked big time - there are still stalwarts out there advocating the use of wireframe graphics coupled with the use of stoopid-looking goggles, but everyne else has seen sense and moved on to other things - trust me, the day of reality tv is swiftly drawing to an end.

I don't like reality shows, but this has preeeeeeetty clothes!

Does Queer Eye count as a reality show? I watch that all the time and have also started to watch Top Model recently.
I seem to have no inner gayboy! I so want one! warlordkittens claims I have an inner straightman. *pout*

[warlordkittens.livejournal.com]

not that there's anyone pestering you to watch queer eye and america's next top model..

and yes, you do have an inner straightboy. he abuses my inner gayboy. :(

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

Queer Eye is more of an improvement show than part of the reality genre. Top Model counts, though.

[woe2you.livejournal.com]

Fear not, I have my minions gritting the Circles as we speak.

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

Oooh, the lovely couture! Just lookit the designs for the Banana Republic-Art Deco challenge:

[woe2you.livejournal.com]

If we absolutely must derive entertainment from useless up-themselves wastes of skin, we could at least chuck 'em in a pit with automatic weapons and tell them only one leaves alive.

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

I think somebody needs a little manscaping. And a cookie.

[woe2you.livejournal.com]

A little what?!? Even Google doesn't have a clue what that word means. Please advise.

And on the whole I stand by what I said - couturiers and fashion designers are by far the least worthwhile and productive section of humanity that I can think of. Dammit, at least muggers are straightforward and don't expect a fucking Oscar for lifting your wallet. For Christ's sake, I've seen more down-to-earth behaviour from Elton John - these people are wasting oxygen, food and other vital commodities that could be used by far more valuable and worthwhile members of society. Cockroaches, for example.

Nice cookies, though.

[biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com]

Meow.

Have some cream with those cookies.

[woe2you.livejournal.com]

Obviously if I were a fashion designer I'd flounce off now swearing colourful vengeance for some perceived slight in that "meow".

And no thanks, I'm allergic.
