Love Love Love. I am usually not a fan of a Canadian version of a US reality show but this one I love. Project Runway Canada premiered last night at 7pm (PST) (same day rerun at 10pm) on Slice. Unlike the usual shoddy quality of the Canadian production (like the nightmare of Canada's Next Top Model - in my opinion), the production of Project Runway Canada was excellent - it rivals that of the US version and definitely was way better than Project Catwalk (the UK version). The casting was very well done - it showcased the diversity of our Canadian demography (which was my more PC way of saying my people were well-represented in the show). The only part of the show that was lacking was Tim Gunn. Brian Bailey, the mentor, tried to channel Tim Gunn by using Tim Gunn's favourite phrase of "make it work" but he was definitely no Tim Gunn. (Strangely, he reminded me of Jack Black playing the role of Tim Gunn - maybe it was the mustache). Cheesy as it may seem, I thought Iman's parting words to the eliminated designer of "you don't measure up" was more catchy than Heidi Klum's "auf wiedersen".
I am feeling much better about the new fall tv season now that Project Runway Canada is on. I will be feeling superb if CTV brings back Nip/Tuck - Season 5 - make it happen, TV God...
