Cheers: Runway's Slammin' WWE Challenge

Cheers to Project Runway for coming up with TV's fiercest challenges. Just when you thought Bravo's reality show couldn't top the prom-themed episode for sheer kitschy goodness, the contestants were required to design outfits for the WWE divas. While the task seemed tailor-made for over-the-top-rope drag queen Chris — who confessed that he wanted to wear his winning leopard-print ensemble — others struggled. (As Jillian so succinctly put it, "'Oh, s---!' was the initial thought that went through my head.") It eventually proved the undoing of little Ricky, who wasn't granted immunity despite winning the last challenge, and whose ugly-ass orange bathing suit got body-slammed by the judges. Auf, that hurts!

For another take on Runway's latest, read Matt Roush's new Dispatch.

Terrible episode on a what is becoming the show's least interesting season. With the exception of the surprising good work on the Hershey's challenge, the show is going through the motions and getting away from being about finding the next great american designer. It's still better than most shows but even Bravo's own Make Me A Supermodel is giving this show a kick in the pants

Considering that none of the winners have gone on to become the next great American designer, I think they've given up on that and are just trying to make good TV. And I think they're succeeding.

I thought the episode was great. Project Runway is still a great show and way better than that crap super model show.

Ferocia Coutura. I about died.

I want a Christian bobblehead where you push a button at the base and he says some of the crazy things he does on the show. I can't take the actual Christian home with me so that would have to do. He's my fave. He, Rami, and Gillian I expect in the final 3. I adore Sweet Pea as a talented underdog but we only get 3 slots.

I don't expect Chris to make it but can Bravo find something else to do with him so I don't have to give him up? He's a hoot.
