Though the whole Project Runway vs. NBC lawsuit [1] is yet to be settled, Lifetime is moving forward as though it will be airing the show in the Fall for sure [2]. And that's not all: At a presentation on Monday, Harvey Weinstein — whose company produces Project Runway [3] — told reporters that Lifetime will be airing not one but two spinoffs of the show [4] around the same time as the show's November premiere.

The first of them doesn't have a title yet, but Weinstein said it will look at the Project Runway world through the eyes of the show's models. The second, dubbed Project Pygmalion, is a makeover series that will turn its winner into a high-society socialite.

Now, I do love a good reality show, but doesn't that seem like a bit . . . much? Especially if both shows and Runway are airing around the same time? I would think that Lifetime would want to be very careful about Runway-related overkill, especially because there will be another season of the show airing on Bravo sometime between now and November.

Also of note: Michael Kors is for sure on board for the move to Lifetime, but Nina Garcia isn't yet — though he noted that everyone would like for her to continue on the show. It sounds like her recent departure from Elle [5], which was a Runway sponsor, is an issue. Meanwhile, Bravo has its own programming presentation scheduled for Tuesday, which should be interesting to say the least!
