Project Runway: The Complete Fifth Season



fun but a bit disappointing
I LOVE project runway. since it doesn't run in germany (where i live) i always order the dvds from the US. so i wonder everytime why they cannot just NOT tell the winner on the backside of the dvd?? this time i just didn't look on the backside, but then the winner was shown in the menue of the dvd....
i missed the reunion and also the "wear are they now" - there was just a short interview with the winner. the extras are too few.

heidi strikes me as quite heartless - there is never any empathy and she just says her lines.

but still i watched the season in almos just one go! it's marvellous. but no project runway season will ever come up to season 2 (santino!). that was the BEST.

Big yawn
My daughter and I thought this season was disappointing. Not many of the contestants were likeable, their designs weren't spectacular, and the last challenge (evening gown)was so banal that I thought the designers were going to be told to get back to the workroom and really CREATE! We DID miss the reunion show although I imagine it would have been rather catty. The "WEAR is the Winner Now" segment just showed her at the ELLE photo shoot and didn't give any information on what she was doing 6 months after the show. THAT'S what we find interesting - have the winners been successful in their work life?

Another good season
Season five has been called the weakest season, but it's still fun. There's not a clear winner, as there was in season four, so it's fun to see some more even competition. If you're a fan of the show, it's a must see. If you're not, start with season one and work your way up.
