100-word Project Runway recap: Episode 8

More Project Runway? Delightful. Let's go:

Opening. Ricky's glad Kevin got eliminated and not him. This inspires confidence?

Challenge. OK, stay with me: It starts out as "design a avant garde style to match your model's hairstyle." Then they work in teams. Then they need to add a second "ready-to-wear" version. It's a nonsense challenge to create stress and make everyone hate each other. Success! Rami/Sweet P team fights the most with Sweet P crying to their model. Awkward city! Everyone else plans side scheme to send their partner up the river if necessary...

Judges. Rough one. Christian & Chris win. Chris knows his Avant. The worst designers (Ricky & Sweet Pea) get a pass and Kit gets the boot. So much for being a team leader. I thought she had a chance.

Next week: Who cares! It's time to text the name of your favorite contestant to Project-Runway-Mania.org.net! I'm pretty sure that will work. Is it weird that I don't have a favorite? Off the top of my head, I can't pick someone that I've really liked this season. Lil Orphan Marion maybe, but he had the benefit of only being on two episodes...thoughts?

I liked the guy from Chicago who looked/talked like French Stewart for no other reason besides the fact that he reminded me of 3rd Rock from the Sun...

I'll miss little Kit Kat, her designs were ok but I'll miss that punk rock/skull wearing attitude that she brought tp PR.

Yeah French Steven was all right, but as a designer I knew he wasn't going to last long.

Kit was maybe just OK, but I liked her style. I feel like there's no one this season like Nick or Michael who design well, but also seem like cool people.

Rami, Christian and Jillian are all decent designers but seem to have some personality defects...(control freak, diva syndrome, ticking time bomb respectively).
