So I don't know what it is - sour grapes or just Bravo trying to prove they know how to make a must-see reality series (because, I love it, but that's all Bravo is now-a-days), but their new show "The Fashion Show" seems almost identical to "Project Runway." An April 22 NY Daily News article said that the lawsuit between NBC Universal and the producers of Project Runway was settled and the show would be making its move to Lifetime and LA and debuting season six in August of this year.
Well Bravo has seemed to move on by creating The Fashion Show. According to the website it's got 15 designers (so did Project Runway) all competing to have their designs sold in a retail market (so did Project Runway - with Bluefly.com). It doesn't sound like these newbies have the chance to see their designs in New York fashion week - too bad.
Over on the west coast (presuming The Fashion Show will be filmed in NY) the new cast of the black sheep of Bravo will be relocating to that town where LC got famous on The Hills, probably competing for a spot in LA fashion week. And I can bet you more than what's in my wallet that it's not hosted by Heidi 'aufedersein' Klum and Tim 'make it work' Gunn.
To be honest, I'll probably watch both shows, but I doubt Isaac Mizrahi/Kelly Rowland and Los Angeles will hold a candle to the old times watching contestants getting "auf'd."
