Tonight’s the night, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight is the beginning of the best season of the year, a season full of storms, dark clouds, and little rays of sunshine. That’s right. Tonight Season 5 of Project Runway begins.
It’s hard to overestimate my love for Project Runway. Partially, it takes me back to those warm and fuzzy season one memories, when we added it to Queer Eye and The Amazing Race as the all-dorm, must-see shows. Partially it reminds me of 36-hour stints in the costume studio, desperately making something stage-worthy with essentially $10 and a few paper clips for materials. But mostly? Mostly it has the best characters on TV, and instead of watching them eat bugs, we get to see them creating something beautiful — or hideous. Obviously, I’m banking on hideous.
The good people at http://www.bravotv.com have the rundown on everything we need to know, but since none of you have time time to read 12 contestant bios, I’ve done the hard work for you. After the jump, I’m putting down my bets on this years cast of bizarre geniuses. But before that, I want to point out loud and clear, that as with most things on this blog, I’m obviously not the best person covering this. But I know who is: head over to read the rants and ramblings of these fine folks — you’ll thank me, kittens.
