Auf Wiedersehen

You know how Tyra Banks gets on some people's nerves? Heidi Klum is the TV personality that annoys me. I used to love love love Project Runway; However, the seasons are getting progressively worse. I was reading US Weekly the other day, and Heidi was promoting the new season saying the tasks are getting harder, and the time is getting shorter. Many contestants are dehydrated, sleep deprived, and next episode one goes to the hospital. You know what this reminds me of? Sweatshops. Now why would they do this to the contestants? To get more viewers? Is it because the ratings are way down? To me, the outcomes are not getting better, but mediocre. Nothing is wowing me. Does Heidi think the less time you give them, the more stress added the better the clothes become? This is purely for the ratings and it's not working. They need to do more creative tasks, not lessen the time. So here is my best tasks list:

1. Drag Queen challenge
Now this is a challenge that was creative and innovative. Different textures and materials were used. The pieces created were bold and bright.

2. Garden Challenge
This was so challenging! Can you imagine making a dress out of flowers?! You need patience and creativity in this challenge.

3. Barbie Challenge
Who doesn't love Barbie? My childhood I played with Barbie from morning to night. I always changed her clothes because Barbie obviously had to be fabulous.

4. Grocery Store Challenge
Making a dress out of corn husks is absolutely difficult. It's delicate to sew and hard to fit.

Heidi, It's time to make the final walk down the catwalk with Project Runway because your challenges are getting worse, and your contestants are getting sick. And most of all what happens to the winners in the end? The only one that is well off is Christian Ciriano and he's paired up with Payless. He's fabulous and it's his personality that got his foot in the door, not from Heidi's help So, Auf Wiedersehen Project Runway you have surpassed your prime.
