TV: Thursday Hot List
July 14 2009, Published 11:00 a.m. ET
You’re just gonna have to TIVO those crazy housewives from Atlanta tonight because there is not one, not two but three all-new Project Runway related shows debuting tonight.
Finally, after a long battle between the networks, Project Runway is back and on its new network Lifetime! To make up for the long delay, the night kicks off with a special edition of the show with Project Runway: All Star Challenge. Eight former fan favorites including Santino Rice, Sweet P and Daniel Vosovic return to compete against each other for a $100,000 cash prize!
Then it’s time to get the party started for real with the sixth season premiere of the show. Heidi Klum, Tim Gunn, Nina Garcia and Michael Kors are all back but for the first time, the show leaves NYC and heads out West to Los Angeles. The new home base for the sixteen designers competing to be the next big thing in the fashion world will be the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.
And if you aren’t totally Project Runwayed out after all that, then don’t fret because another new series airs immediately after. Models of the Runway gives you a new perspective on all the drama and tension that goes on behind the scenes on Project Runway week after week—from the models point of view. They’re there through it all and witness all the fighting, back-stabbing and gossiping among the designers so we’re pretty psyched to get the scoop each week from them!
