Spite is The New Black

I am considering the possibility that the creators of Project Runway got so exasperated with the lack of genuine drama and vile bitchery happening amongst the competitors in the show that they let the judges do it instead. With Mondo stepping off the Michael hate train and Gretchen opting to close her miserable mouth rather than spew the bile she usually does, I would imagine the producers are pretty strapped for "entertaining" moments.

So this week, Heidi gallantly stepped up and did her bit for spite and making designers almost-cry. I accept that  there was a lot of poor work this week. I thought that there would be a Top 1 rather than 3, as Mondo was the only one to make anything appealing. But they were vicious! This is Andy, trying not to cry:

His design was atrocious, but to laugh at him? In front of everyone? January Jones could hardly keep a straight face. Someone needs to lock that woman on the set of Mad Men and keep her there. Forever. I'd rather suffer Betty every single week than have to see January in anything involving her personality ever again.

<sigh>
