The saga continues!
The latest folks to put the final nail in the Project Runway sabotage coffin are the the Weinsteins!
Last month, a judge ruled in favor of Bravo and blocked Lifetime from airing any new episodes of Project Runway until some legal stuff was figured out.
Then, acording to the Hollywood Reporter, on Friday, the Weinsteins hit Bravo with a lawsuit that basically claimed that the channel did stuff to hurt the show's brand and value. Some of the shady things that Bravo supposedly did include, 'running a small number of ads, creating mundane and unappealing ads, providing little information for the press about the season premiere, and revealing spoilers about future episodes.'
The Weinsteins also claim that when Bravo 'began to suspect that the show might move to a rival network, it created "copycat shows" based on the "Runway" format.'
By the time the courts sort through all the issues we may not even care about the show anymore!
I actually believe BRAVO pulled this stunt out of anger of losing the show that basically put them on the map in the first place. Even if they didn't advertise PR like they did with past seasons, it still wouldn't make up for how awful this season was in the first place. majority of the designers clothes were down right atrocious. I don't even think the tackiest drag queen would be caught dead in the frock made during season 5. Oh wait...
...While Tim still has his dreadfull Guide to Style show, it may be time for Heidi to find a new show to invest in! Give Tyra a call. I'm sure she could use another jdge on America's Next Top Tranny. Or here's a better idea. How about putting the show out of it's misery. Once Project Runway moves to LIFETIME, i don't think people will give a shit aboutthe show anymore.
