Brightest Young Things


I am probably going to regret this within 5 minutes of the show starting BUT we are going to keep up with last week's promises and live blog tonight's project runway episode.
(it should be a good one too, as they get the drag queen challenge this week, and I am recruiting my very mean and very funny roommate to participate in this as well)

Bonus: and you are part of it too.

How this is going to roll:
-show starts at 9 sharp
-me being annoyed with it starts at 9:01 sharp
-all commentary will be in the comments in this post
-we HAVE turned the the auto approve comment feature on so YOU CAN INSTANTANEOUSLY COMMENT AS WELL.
-about anything-the show, the designers, the Olympics, I don't care.

it will be great.
like a project runway gchat.
or a disaster.
or both.

So-get your keyboards ready and see you at 9.
Right here.

bonus:
Gawker's live blogging bonanza

+

imagery:

(winning ones: Korto, Terri and the amazing kabuki dream coat and Joe
losers: Keith's sad chicken, Jerrell's "classy affair" and Daniel's bleach disaster)

God loves a cheerful giver.

I totally can't wait to see if Gideon catches Frank (Keith Carradine).

OH-MY-GOD!

3 years ago Michael said

oh wait, wrong show.

3 years ago Svetlana said

I think the whole episode should just be devoted to chris march's horns!

who would you have picked as your drag queen.

3 years ago Svetlana said

i cannot even begin to comment on the ladies

3 years ago kc said

3 years ago Michael said

3 years ago Michael said

I'm not watching this stupid show, I just figured this live shit would be fun.

3 years ago kc said

I hate Kato.

3 years ago Svetlana said

am I the only person freaked out by the fact that they are all looking like dudes now?

3 years ago Ebel said

I spy a progressive rattail . . .

3 years ago Meg said

ok, I got caught up making sangria and am coming in late. what these queens are not cute without the makeup

3 years ago kc said

(covers face in horror)

3 years ago Michael said

Where's Morgan?

3 years ago Svetlana said

Morgan is building a set for a shoot tonight. We have you instead.
Turn on bravo!

3 years ago Svetlana said

the best part of the show thus far has been the preview for "the house bunny". Anna Farris is my God.

3 years ago Michael said

I don't have Bravo. I have Channels 4, 5, 7, 9, 14, 20, 26, 32, 50 and 56. Only 3 of those come in worth a damn.

I think we should do this while watching Generation Kill. Does anyone have HBO?

3 years ago Meg said

seriously, I can't even handle this one! Did Tim just say gay jurassic park?

3 years ago Becca said

so excited about The House Bunny.

3 years ago Svetlana said

anything can be liveblogged.

"Did you make a sleeve because you did not want to make a glove?"
Classic.



And the rattail is the new star of this show!

3 years ago Michael said

I would invite Ebel, too, but s/he is afraid I'll punch h/im/er in the face.

3 years ago Svetlana said

Blayne wearing Daniel's dress was kind of worth it.

We should be liveblogging "The House Bunny" instead.

In other news, one more episode and I may stab Joe into his eyeballs.

3 years ago Meg said

What is that green monster Suede is making. ugh...

3 years ago Svetlana said

his grandfather told him he needed some sprinkles of seeds on it!

3 years ago Svetlana said

kiss and make up!


the make up room is AH-MAY-ZING!!!!!!!!!!!

have some more exclamation points:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 years ago Meg said

how did they go from Natalie Portman to drag queens? seriously... thank g-d I had sangria before this.
ps
over the leatha chick

3 years ago Michael said

The House Bunny seems like it would be decent if it were rated XXX.

3 years ago kc said

i secretly hope they have some special effects during the runway show

3 years ago Meg said

i secretly hope Heidi will break into song with one of them.

3 years ago Svetlana said

Hamlet 2 looks awesome too.

Drag queen episodes of project runway would be decent if they were rated XXX. Enough with the tasteful editing.

p.s. over everyone.

3 years ago Michael said

So who else is liveblogging naked?

3 years ago Svetlana said

they should do an episode with Janice Dickinson.

3 years ago kc said

Ru Paul has AGED!

3 years ago Meg said

holy shit that wig on RuPaul.

3 years ago kc said

someone needs to be doing the splits!

3 years ago Svetlana said

kind of liking terri's samurai joint against all hopes.

the fringe thing is a disaster and not in a good way.

3 years ago kc said

Leanne's outfit is C.U.T.E!

3 years ago kc said

UGH. the pterodactyl made it.
can we just kill blaybe?
or send him back to yakama

3 years ago Meg said

Acid Betty scares me

3 years ago Svetlana said

new high light: ru paul speaking with an aussi accent!

3 years ago Becca said

it's kind of like a sad chicken!

3 years ago kc said

the knees on keith's model are the worst!

3 years ago Svetlana said

for the record KC actually is ducking under our couch every time those sad chicken knees come on screen

3 years ago svetlana said

"its almost too normal"

"its like a good bar mitzvah moment"


michael kors is my fave this season

3 years ago Svetlana said

Daniel - lame again.
SHOCKER!

3 years ago Michael said

Wait a second. Do the two of you each have a laptop, or are you sharing one, which is why you keep signing out as an admin Svet?

3 years ago Becca said

Michael Kors is definitely on tonight.

3 years ago kc said

"they don't want to be selling those hormones up in harlem to make a living".

at least they have the option!

3 years ago Meg said

"they don't want to be selling no hormones up in Harlem."
and I am done.

3 years ago Svetlana said

quote of the night.

I also enjoyed the "hiding the candy belt"

3 years ago kc said

Daniel is going home.
He better be going home.

3 years ago Meg said

oh I am totally using "hiding the candy belt" at some point in the day tomorrow

3 years ago Svetlana said

a little dissapointed there were zero catfights using glitter.

in other news: commercials are on again: "Burn after reading" looks awesome too.

3 years ago Michael said

Dumbest ending to Criminal Minds ever.

3 years ago kc said

I'd totally rather see Michael Kors in drag.
Tim Gunn is too stuck up.

3 years ago Svetlana said

Joe wins.

3 years ago kc said

which one is his?

3 years ago Svetlana said

the pink glitter one

3 years ago kc said

pfffffffffft.

3 years ago Meg said

no more Daniel.
aww he is trying not to cry

3 years ago Becca said

the sad chicken gets to stay? really?

3 years ago Svetlana said

and the surprise about who gets eliminated is... THERE IS NO SURPRISE!

3 years ago Michael said

Are you going to have to erase the commentary so people who didn't view the show don't read them and then bitch?

3 years ago Ebel said

Now I'm all excited for the drag queen races.

Michael thank you for the half-ass invitation/not invitation.

xo

And . . . .
Rattail's SAFE

3 years ago Meg said

I'm one episode away from being over it.
night night.

3 years ago Svetlana said

No.
There is no visual evidence and that is all that matters.

3 years ago Michael said

We should totally do this during Two and a Half Men next Monday.

3 years ago Becca said

umm if we're liveblogging anything on Mondays its definitely The Hills.

3 years ago Svetlana said

SPEAKING of drag queen races, check out last year's amazing photo set (the firs tone Lexie ever did for us):

http://www.brightestyoungthings.com/i-heart-dc/drag-race-17th/

3 years ago Becca said

*it's

3 years ago Svetlana said

Hills is what liveblogging was invented for.
As if liveblogging needed a reason to exist.

3 years ago Michael said

Ebel - I don't deal well with rejection and I know you'd say no so you wouldn't have to fret over wardrobe choices.

3 years ago Becca said

can we please, maybe?

3 years ago Svetlana said

for sure for sure.
i don't have a life. i can liveblog any night of the week.
aside from tomorrow - tomorrow is brazilian night.

3 years ago Michael said

I don't know what Hills is.

It's the Democrat convention next Monday. That should be fun. Actually nevermind. I'm not watching either convention.

3 years ago Michael said

Becca, you and I can blog during Antiques Roadshow tomorrow.

3 years ago Svetlana said

Michael, you totally would have enjoyed the "Unconventionally yours" screening yesterday.
Where were you?

3 years ago Becca said

best. idea. ever.

3 years ago Michael said

I was not in Adams Morgan. I am never in Adams Morgan unless I sneak in on a weekend to buy books.

Plus I was thinking half of those people who would go are the ones who shake politicians hands.

3 years ago Michael said

damned ambiguity - do you mean Antiques Roadshow is the best idea ever?

3 years ago Svetlana said

you totally missed out.
in other news, I feel bad for people who will try to read through these comments later on.


am thinking: there should be a random live blogging post a day.
anything can be liveblogged.
like those people stealing some poor evicted soul's furniture across the street from my apartment.
they totally deserve to be liveblogged.

3 years ago Becca said

duh.

3 years ago Michael said

Our big boss is out for the next two weeks, which leaves the "Steve" character from my stories (the guy who looks like a donut) in charge.

I could just liveblog all day long.

3 years ago Svetlana said

this can be arranged more easily than you think.

3 years ago Michael said

he's already started pacing around and out-sounding anyone else talking in the office today. And he's exerting his power. He yelled for someone to "come here" over the cube today - which he never does with the boss is there. I yelled back (even though he wasn't talking to me) "Please. Come here, Please" and everyone just blew up.

Come to think of it, I'm due a vacation.

3 years ago Becca said

good.

3 years ago Michael said

Next time I'll live blog about how I just ate half a package of Chips Ahoy, which translates into 700 calories and 60-something % of my total fat intake for the day and nothing else.

3 years ago Becca said

Svetlana is going to turn off the automatic comment thing to make us stop.

3 years ago Michael said

Well this is post 100. I think that's a record.

What are you watching now?

3 years ago Svetlana said

I'm kind of enjoying this.
(so God help me)

I may designate a post every day just for shit shooting.

3 years ago Svetlana said

I think the comment record is 127 or something like that.
Sheer Genius is on.
I hate all of those people. I refuse to liveblog about them.

3 years ago Michael said

On CSI: NY there's a runway scene where all the models are wearing clothes made out of chocolate

3 years ago Becca said

I hate them too! what the fuck.

3 years ago Becca said

can we liveblog Sunday SVU marathons? technically not "live" but oh so good. and there's so much to say.

3 years ago Michael said

I think someone should liveblog shorts.

3 years ago Svetlana said

SVU is like crack to me.
I don't need people to know I spend 6 hours every Sunday watching it.
Oh wait...

3 years ago Michael said

Wait, Special Victims Unit?

3 years ago Svetlana said

yes, best show ever.


in other news, I may need to leave this so I can work on my blog.
people may want to read something else tomorrow than just the 3 of us discussing (non-project runway) tv.

3 years ago Michael said

Next time I go to my dad's I'll live blog The Waltons and Little House on the Prairie.

3 years ago Michael said

People read what you give them to read.

3 years ago Michael said

OMG! I'm so fat. Why did I eat 30 cookies?

3 years ago Svetlana said

freak

3 years ago morgan said

it's decided: next week we're liveblogging the liveblogging. seriously. and as far as tonight goes, here are my POST LIVEBLOG P.RUNWAY BLOG COMMENTS:

1. kenley's laugh is like nails on a chalkboard, and i'm so over her whole vintage aesthetic. the kit pistol car commercial reminded me that NO ONE WINS WITH RETRO.

2. daniel should have been auf-ed like two weeks ago. he was a nervous wreck this whole episode and his dress looked like couture pac-sun, which is not a compliment. sooo bai ling.

3. i've been waiting for eighteen months for tim gunn to bring back "flotsam and jetsom." worth every second.

4. joe's jumpsuit was pretty effing amazing, but if the southern anne murray on steroids hadn't been such a delight, i'm pretty sure it would have gone to koto. coto? corto? dunno.

5. barflicious.


oh, and here's my pre-hills-episode-2 advance liveblog:

1. lo, you bitch!
2. spencer, you nazi!
3. audrina, wtf are you wearing?
3. lauren, your miss america-style trail of black mascara tears is sooo aspirational. you are like the best avon spokesgirl EVER.

now when is antiques roadshow on??

3 years ago Taylor said

I actually thought Kenley's little glittery vest on this episode was really cute. She could use more variety - but I think her 40s thing works well for her. I thought for this episode they should have had a tie for winner and a tie for loser. Because the top two and bottom two both deserved immunity / hitting the bricks respectively.

3 years ago Nicole said

Soooo glad Daniel is gone. Who could forget his "impeccable taste?" Oh wait, everyone because it was missing. I'm actually a little sad Korto didn't win. She nailed it.

Also, pac sun couture is the perfect PERFERCT description of daniel's crap attack.

3 years ago eddie said

can you guys kindly liveblog the next round of women's indoor volleyball so i can constantly make references to kimberly glass, please? i call her g.l. ass

mmk, thx

3 years ago eddie said

nevermind. i'll be sipping on my girl drink on warder...

3 years ago decibelle said

lol @ "the southern anne murray"
