(S04E08) Finally, a challenge where the designers really pushed the limits and showed us just how far they could take things. However, I knew things were too good to be true, because the elimination was pretty upsetting. Well, it was upsetting for me, anyway.
Also, I thought this was too good to pass up. Heidi dropped this gem of a quote during the runway critique: "If they had executed it in a beautiful way, with beautiful materials, it could have worked." Oh. Oh really, Heidi? I didn't know it was all about the execution and materials. I thought it was just a matter of marvelous post-justifying on the catwalk and sliding a few Lincolns and a Ziploc baggy of M&Ms under Michael Kors' dressing room door.

(S04E07) I'm sure just about every teenage girl dreams of going to prom with Orlando Bloom and/or a custom-made dress. Bloom is a pretty busy guy, what with all of his swashbuckling and celebrity duties, so he probably doesn't have time to do proms. However,
Project Runway decided to make a couple of girls' dreams (and designers' nightmares) come true by inviting a few high school girls to be clients/models in a prom dress challenge.
I feel like this challenge produced some of the most interesting work we've seen this season, but it also caused a bit of viewer drama on the runway. It's as though it's part of teenage girls' nature to drag drama in their wake.

Lucky: I'm not sayin' stumpin' isn't risky. When you're out there with nothing but chains, beer and a winch you could rip your arm off and there ain't no one out there to sue.
Hank wasn't featured much in this episode, and that's rare. It seems that even when the plot doesn't revolve around Hank, he still serves as the lone voice of reason that helps maintain some semblance of sanity and common sense among his friends and family. Ultimately, he's the one that helps guide the story to its conclusion. This episode, however, focused on Luanne and Lucky, two people who pretty much live by their own code, which doesn't leave much room for Hank or anyone else. It also left us viewers with a nice little story about the compromises and sacrifices one has to make when they decide to spend their lives with someone.

(S01E20) Just two
episodes left for this season and things are flip flopping faster than you can say ... uh ... flip flopping. By the end
of the episode, Ted and Robin were back on speaking terms, Barney was, well, Barney is ageless, and Lily was starting to
have some reservations about her upcoming nuptials. When Marshall and Lily had the opportunity to have their wedding at
their dream location, they had to make some sacrifices, time being the most prevalent one, and move their wedding up to
two months from now. Needless to say, Lily was a little freaked out. Finding a band was at the top of her to do list,
and the only place the band Marshall liked was playing was at a local high school's prom. Looks like we're going to
prom. On with the show!

(S02E20) Earlier today I
put out the call for
new viewers to this show that this was their last chance to catch a plot-ruining-free episode this season. For the most
part I was right, though I'm not sure this was the best episode for a newcomer to see. There were a lot of inside jokes
that might have gotten lost on someone not familiar with past episodes. With that said though, we were thrown so many
new pieces of the big puzzle this week to make even fans' heads spin.
