Have you watched or seen season 3 of Project Runway Australia? It's just finished it's season. Way way better than America's current season.

I watched it bit-by-bit on a different web site...the player I linked here wouldn't play on my computer. I didn't like it as much, I thought the judges/hosts were dry. The glory of Season I and II were Kristy Hinze, who was so amazing and take-charge, and that nutty mentor, was his name Henry? They were so much fun together. Too bad they're gone.

So sick of all the housewives in every city, so agree. Bravo Andy got rid of Kelly Bensimon too late, I stopped watching all of them after the "systematic bullying" season. Just pure drivel.

I didn't mind the switch in presenter so much but, yes, the switch from Henry to Alex was a big change. Henry acted much more as a nurturing mentor; Alex just liked to wear tight shirts and tell them to stop doing whatever it was they were doing! I guess the eye-candy factor compensated for me! :-)
