Did Tim Gunn always seem this drunk and aloof during the previous three seasons of Project Runway? Or is he just trying to offset the fabulous-with-an- exclamation-point that this season is? Yes, it's the homosexualest Runway yet—all but one of the eight male contestants is gay. There is so much gay going on that Tim provides stark contrast as he lounges around the studio with his bad posture and severely unbuttoned shirt. His "Carry on"s and "Make it work"s lack the zip and joy of previous seasons. It's as if they're chores. What's wrong, Tim?
For that matter, what's wrong with the rest of the judges? Most fans have wondered whether or not the show would still be enjoyable in its fourth season, but the real question seems to be whether the judges will be. Michael Kors chides one designer for adding a flower to his dress, calling it "Mother of the Bride" (it still won), yet praises a Vera Wang look-alike for plastering a shiny metallic one onto hers. And Heidi Klum, who's already calling this season's contestants a bunch of crybabies, delivers her "auf"s with mild disinterest and says "One of you will be out" like she's about to remove her earrings, smear Vaseline on her face, and club the designers like seals (yeah, sorry about that).
