TAR 31, Recap Leg 9, 6/12/19

Welcome to Leg 9! Last time, on You Shouldn’t Have U-Turned Us Because That Means We’ll Lose!, 7 teams continued racing through Switzerland. Teams faced a Double U-Turn, but had to vote for who they thought should take it. Colin and Christie and the Reilly sisters got U-Turned and Nic and Vic had a Speed Bump. Once the dust settled, Gaytube finished in first for the third leg in a row, and the Reilly sisters can’t recover from shooting an apple off of a scarecrow, so they are eliminated. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

Project Runway 6/13/19--"The Final Runway" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the final four returned to New York with their collections, and met Nina to have their last challenge. Nina went through each collection and asked each designer to make something specific that she felt was missing from their collection. There was a minimum of drama, even though Hester had sewn through her finger. Bishme wasn't finished with his collection when he arrived, and he had had a lot of personal stuff happen to him. His heart wasn't in it and he couldn't get it together so he was eliminated. I hope he finds the success he wants. (click for more)

TAR 31, Recap Leg 8, 6/5/19

Welcome to Leg 8! Last time, on The U-Turn Is Coming! The U-Turn Is Coming!, 7 teams raced to Switzerland. Teams discussed the possible U-Turn and the Reilly Sisters created a toxic relationship with Nic and Vic. There was lots of jumping off of things, and in the end GayTube won the leg again and Nic and Vic finished last on the third and final non-elimination leg of the season. (Toyouke: “You know for all that drama and whatever, look at Elissa's face when Phil says it's a non-elim leg. She and Rachel are not happy.”) Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

Project Runway 6/6/19--"One Elle of a Day" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the last challenge before the finale. Everyone was asked to make an “experiential fashion show”. That means you get a (fake) room and you will need to decorate it, and make an outfit that goes with your room. It needs to be “bigger and bolder” than anything else you've made this season. Hester really struggled, but had a great room full of flowers. Her look just wasn't very good. Bishme did fine, as did Sebastian, after he had a breakdown and threatened to quit. But Sebastian's dress was great. Garo did the best job of both room and dress, though, and he won. Tessa decided to make a ceramics studio, and asked her model to make some clay pots and get clay on herself, but it was not enough. The judges said her look wasn't her, and it was still unfinished, and Tessa was sent home. I thought for sure they'd get rid of Hester's very niche and weird point of view, and keep Tessa's far more salable minimalism, but I guess the unfinished hems and arguing were too much.

TAR 31, Recap Leg 7, 5/29/19

Welcome to Leg 7! Last time, on I’m Stacking It!, 8 teams raced from Dubai to Kampala, Uganda. The Big Brother Alliance was put to the test as teams stacked wood, preserved fish and competed in the first (read: SECOND) Head to Head of the season. (Toyouke: “There was some speculation online that the reason they included this last Head-to-Head, even though no placements changed, was because the last two teams ran to the mat holding hands. And there was no way to explain how the last place team caught up otherwise. They could have just made them refilm it, but that does make some sense.”) In the end, GayTube won the leg and the BBMoms were eliminated. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

TAR 31, Recap Leg 6, 5/22/19

Welcome to Leg 6! Last time, on The Amazing Race Is Awesome and Good!, 8 teams made their way to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. The Reillys got lost and Rachel lost it. There were dinosaurs and tall buildings. Team Fun ended up in first and got Phil to freestyle with them. In the end it was Rachel and Elissa who finished last, but were not eliminated due to the second of three randomly placed non-elimination legs. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

TAR 31, Recap Leg 5, 5/22/19

Welcome to Leg 5! Last time, on We Can’t Be Bothered To Show A Task That Created More Drama Than This Show Has Had in a While, 9 teams continued to wander about Vietnam. The Reilly sisters decided to create drama with the female Survivors culminating in a showdown at an unaired Head To Head. Colin and Christie came in first for the first time since their six first place finishes in TAR 5, showing that older does not necessarily mean weaker. And it’s the Survivors who are out and are extremely bitter about it. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)
