7.7 Good
Kevin Johnn
Avg Score: 9.59    Total Ratings: 8    Total Reviews: 1
I really liked Kevin during his stint on Project Runway. His designs were consistently good and I think his Banana Republic dress should have won. It was gorgeous! It was really unfair to kick him off after making him be a team leader. If leadership was such a big factor, everybody should have been made a team leader at some point. His quiet wit made his confessionals amusing and I liked that he was more understated than a lot of the CRAZY contestants on the show. Also, I'm pretty sure he's the one that drew a moustache on Wendy Pepper's daughter which, while mean, is pretty hilarious (I would have done the same thing).

There's no question that Wendy Pepper's designs were "dowdy" at best. Tim tried to warn her, but she made the same mistake over and over. She probably shouldn't have made it to the final three. And yet, there's something that makes me really love Wendy Pepper. Maybe it's the fact that she became hated for pretty much no reason at all. Maybe it's because of her outlandish blonde hair streak or her wacky blue eyeshadow. Every time I see episodes from this season of Project Runway, I get indignant on her behalf all over again. No matter how people feel about her, she makes good reality tv and that's all we can really ask for from contestants on reality shows.

THIS show is exactly what Apprentice: Martha Stewart should have been. There is something about watching people trying to be creative that business-oriented tasks (like those on the Apprentices) doesn't live up to. I think another factor that contributed to this show's success (in my heart... obviously not commercially) is the tendency for "creative" people to be even wackier than all of those nutcases on other reality shows. I know this show will never come back, but one can dream. Perhaps if Martha Stewart was the host rather than the bland, boring Joan Lunden the show would have been more successful.

Seriously. Rob's designs for Project Runway were consistently horrible but he somehow made it eight eliminations before he met his maker (and by maker, I mean Heidi Klum). I suppose he just kept getting lucky because other people's designs (for example, Star's jester dress) were slightly worse than his. He really should have gotten kicked off the show just for having those ridiculous cornrows. Barring that, he should have been kicked off after splitting his head open on one of his various drinking binges. Thank gosh he got kicked off before the final three. If I was forced to see an entire collection of his ridiculous designs, I might have done something crazy.

Heidi Klum
Avg Score: 8.44    Total Ratings: 123    Total Reviews: 7
I simply adored Heidi Klum as the host in the first season of Project Runway. Her charming accent and lovely, glowing face were always a positive part of this fantastic show. Unfortunately, however, she seems to be trying really, really hard to hide her accent on the new season of Project Runway. Did some crazy focus group say that the accent should go? If so, this one person focus group says, bring it back! The accent is really what sets her apart from other hosts like Tyra Banks. Although I suppose her crazily enormous baby-belly sets her apart these days too. Pregnant women on reality tv? Now I've seen everything.
