Project Runway’s Sham of a Finale is Tonight
Posted by Diana in Project RunwayOctober 27th, 2011, 05:16 PM
Josh M. and his self-chosen top 3 looks
Project Runway. Anya Ayoung-Chee wins, right? The former beauty queen with a lovely accent and sex tape shenanigans and inability to make structured garments is a shoo-in for most divisive contestant since, uh, well, Gretchen Jones last season! Way to go, Lifetime: you’ve successfully pissed off most of your remaining viewers. Anya is like The Beatles: you love her or you don’t. The internet is rife with Anya sympathizers and Anya detractors (I think you can guess which camp I’m in), and many sympathizers are now detractors. Tim Gunn’s home visit was the final straw!
In past seasons, the final four have gotten anywhere from eight to sixteen (season 7) weeks to complete their collections–sixteen weeks!! This bunch of misfit toys gets six. A measly six weeks to create and execute a ten look collection! The producers are really all about high stakes this season, aren’t they? Except, of course, when it would have a negative affect on a certain Caribbean bombshell.
Tim visited Kimberly first, and dudes: she is so totally over this mess. She’s like, leave me be, Project Runway: the judges just don’t get my stuff and I am tired. That, by the way, was all subtext. Her adorable niece is adorable, and it’s always fun to see Tim with the families.
Then, Trinidad! Tim wears a suit–hell, he probably sleeps in a suit! Like a vampire. Anya, three weeks in (halfway) has yet to create anything. So, there 
you go. Three weeks in, and nothing to show for it, not even muslin mockups? You’ve got to be kidding! Never before in the history of Project Runway, etc. It’s embarrassing–she’s a finalist and it’s Season 9! But, of course, you know what happens.
Viktor, in New York, showed Tim the strongest looks. He’s been a bit overshadowed by Anya’s hair and Josh’s eyebrows, but is definitely a strong (if catty) contender. Kimberly flew the most under the radar, but compared to Anya and Josh, Viktor is a close second. This really has been the season of the personality, hasn’t it?
Josh, of course, is last, and meets Tim at a bar (barf). One thing I’ll say for him is that he seemed to really listen to Tim’s advice. You can imagine, of course, what his collection looks like. We also see pictures of him as a callow youth, and: the eyebrows are THE SAME. Hair, eyebrows, tan: all same. Eek.
Three weeks later, everyone meets up in New York to find out who shows on television at Fashion Week, because everyone goes, just not everyone shows on television. Instead of changing when Project Runway airs, producers seem to find it simpler to just make the top 10 create collections and have all 10 show. Silly, right? Yet, every year, same thing. In any case, I’ll watch tonight’s finale, just to see how much tomfoolery occurs. Will you?

What an inspirational win! it just goes to show that you are never too late to learn a skill and live a dream. Thanks, Lifetime, for this great season. The episode when Anya lost her money but still turned out the win was the best!

One thing that always troubled me was that even with the internet, most individuals still do not tend to address about the topic in this quality.
