(S06E13) Project Runway's part one of their finale episodes are always boring. This episode was no exception. We learn more about the hopefuls' backgrounds, peek at their final collection, Tim critiques them, they come to New York, and get some bombshell in one form or another.

This year's bomb is recycled from season two: a last minute thirteenth piece with the help of an eliminated contestant. This time, the muse model picks their final model.

The first half of the show was all about watching Tim in awkward situations: struggling to use a freight elevator, baking biscuits, and interacting with dogs.

John Oliver, Senior Entertainalist reported on this year's Oscars ceremony. Well... not really. He was really reporting on how much he didn't like Jon's hosting performance from the previous year. This was a beautiful act of self-deprecation, I must say. I loved it when John Oliver called Jon "the iceberg responsible for sinking SS Last Year's Oscars."

"Cinema Politico": At the Oscars, Al Gore was a big hit (Jon had a message for him: "Here's an inconvenient truth: Cake isn't a food group!"), as were the shadow-y silhouette people (lobsters and penguin-people!). John Oliver returned again to talk about how the ceremony was "green" this year. They chose an interesting image to use for the endangered species picture... You can clearly see former TDS correspondents Steve Carell and wife Nancy Walls sitting next to a giant panda.

Project Runway has been winding down, leaving only four designers to go (Chloe Dao, Kara Janx, Santino Rice, and Daniel Vosovic), but the big finale of Project Runway is the actual runway show at Olympus Fashion Week, which took place between the 3rd and the 10th. What they did at Fashion Week was have all four contenders present collections so that none of the spectators could give away who had been booted (they did the same thing last season when poor Austin Scarlett was Auf Wiedersehen-ed)... The actual top three finalists of Runway will not be announced until next week's episode, and only those three collections will be televised.

Do you like spoilers? C'mon. I bet you're dying to see what the designers have created... If you'd prefer to find out on your own, look away. If you'd like to be sneaky, check out this brief recap from Yahoo! (thanks, Martha!). Or, you can come look at some pictures I dug up from Fashion Week and take a real peek at the collections that they presented...
