In the midst of the Top Chef finale last night, Bravo slipped in a little gift for Project Runway fans: a premiere date for the sooner-than-planned season five. July 16 is the day the newest crop of fashion wannabes will start cutting and draping their way toward success.
One change from previous seasons, though: Instead of airing at 10 p.m., Runway will now air at 9. That's because Shear Genius will be taking the 10 p.m. spot starting in two weeks, right after next week's Top Chef reunion. It's going to be strange to have two of Bravo's "big four" reality series (Runway, Shear Genius, Top Chef, Top Design) airing back-to-back on the same night — but it could help Shear Genius if people come for Runway and then don't want to get off the couch.
I'm still a little wary about this season — July is just so soon! I mean, Christian Siriano's 15 minutes aren't even up yet. But on the other hand, it could be the last season of Runway as we know it, on Bravo and with the Magical Elves team behind it. No chance I'm going to miss out, even if I don't quite have my normal Runway craving yet. You?

All I'm saying is thank God that it's moving to an earlier spot! Can't wait for the premiere.
1Yipee!!! Now that Top Chef is over I am ready for PR again, I would be perfectly happy if they just go back to back forever!
2I agree, the earlier time works better with my schedule. Can't wait!!!
3Cant wait!!!

5Woohoo! I'm pumped! I just moved offices and I'm one block from Parsons ... some major stalking will ensue this summer
6hooray for project runway! boo for it premiering when i'm out of the country.
7so exciting! wait i thought it was moving to lifetime or something? whatever. oh does anyone know why CHRISTIAN hasnt been featured in Elle yet? ive been waiting to see him again!
8Yay! It's coming back on my birthday!
9elanakat — it's supposed to be moving to Lifetime but not till November — we'll end up with two seasons almost back-to-back if this plan goes through!
10I can't wait for the next season! I loooove Project Runway...even though I don't think they will be able to top Season 2.
11She's so cute. + this show is really fun. too bad I've missed the past few seasons... Better catch up soon
12yay! i'll actually be able to watch it before going to bed!
13I am so excited. If only LOST would begin as early.
14project runway, big love, and so u think u can dance = i'm in heaven!
15All I gotta say is Make it work!
16I am always ready for more Runway! Although it doesn't work with my schedule at 9 (I get off class at 9:20 *ugh*) at least I can watch it when I get home and fast forward through the commercials! Yay DVR!!
17What happened to comments from "jentilpet?" ME? I sent a really in-your-face message to those who are making such a big deal over where ProjectR will aire!!! "Lifetime" for "old ladies?",what mentality! Was that Miss "ilanac13" or"distasteful?" Gramine?"Wicked",now "elanakat' asks...why Christian or when will he be in "Elle"? By the way tonight at 10pm est "Tori & Dean" 's show will have a Fashion show w/ Christian! But the usual out-of-context clip,shows Tory alarmed that her jewely was not worn by the models! Could Christian be getting a bigger head?Why? were the pieces[jewelery] NOT condusive to his dresses? Now,don't start your indulgent ignorant #$#$#$ by saying "Tori's stuff must have been bad,or Christian would have shown it?" Let us not create an IDOL by being IDLE!!I mean,you can admire a person,but don't get nauseating! If his reasons are discussed,w/ Tori,and I they will be,as I saw them speak,but was it before or after the show,because IF Christian& Tori spoke,& Tori assumed he'd be showing her line,then he didn't, then we'll have to wait to see if that conversation took place before or after,imagine,if Christian ,in fact told Tori her line "would" be shown,then wasn't???Would you still condone such a greedy,made-it-too-soon,never struggled enough to get where he is syndrome....like "oprah" she's another who never struggled! Where is that man who worked really hard to get her,her own show?She never opens up about those things!Is she sharing her thyroid miracle? ,after 6,non-instinctual tries?She never had time to learn the "real" facets of life!
18So,Leave Lifetime alone,their movies are all true! Do you really think,your mind will wander,while watching ProjectR,enough to CHANGE to channel?Oh my..am I watching Lifetime?'I'd better change it?? "Fashion? Sarah Jessica Parker? talk about "rich people" whoever said that....tired of seeing rich people...yes! Why DO we need another fashion show? I meant it for THAT,not the idiotic jargon you meant!After seeing Sarah----Parker's new show idea,I could agree w/ that,perhaps you hadn't seen that yet,it would have made more sense! The "original" is likened to a Remake...They're always bad,and unessessary! ProjectR will always be the First! Watch,tonight for Tori& Dean,see what Christian will do,will he?does he lie to Tori?Tori is there to see her jewelery on the fashions,then why did she look & say to Dean "where was the je....?" Did Christian actually lie,by NOT showing her line? I said it before but there are those on this bloggie,that will push all truth aside,in the name of "Christian!" saying he had a reason? You mean a face-to-face lie? Did he really do that? We will see! How can anyone condone such a thing, a coward,or a spoiled,indulgent,like myself too much Christian,perhaps couldn't tell her,didn't tell her? Would he get away with that with...say Michael Coors...how about Heidi,the woman who made his fame "happen?" So soon we forget?Oh,another thing,read Tori Spelling's book before you start "knocking" her next! If having a husband who loves you& a family that is strong,while she picked up the pieces of her mother's twisted ways...afterall she grew up rich,but didn't fall apart when her inheritance wasn't what she deserved! I don't see any other "starlet" survive& work her way back! "Lowhan?" so spoiled,what has "she" done for humanity lately?Wildlife,animal abuse,etc...So please don't start putting Christian on a pedestal,if he went through w/ that,he's the one that will look stupid,loose his "status" a bit,make thus seeing for themselves the beauty of her creativity! NOW,what happened to my first comment/message? I can educate all of you!
"Fashion Show" is on Bravo,but I say NO...Braco to "Lifetime"..I wish I knew what happened w/ "that" network thing? Has to be "MONEY" right,isn't everything in that greedy business?For those who are experts of the cinematic genere,which you're not,do you really think if you had a chance to make 65grand an episode like those 2 idiots John&Kate,who feeds her kids "Ragu"[I like it,but being Sicilian"I was raised on fresh tomatoes from the whole[can or fresh!]Whatever background "she" comes from,well...spoiled?yes,and hubby? smoking pot? He wouldn't be so spoiled too if he wasn't so carefree-rich!! From their fancy cars to her affair,and or his..whatever....oh yeah...why doesn't she cut their spagetti? Leaving it long is a "myth" in cooking macoroni anyway! Her kids will grow up devoid of culture,knowledge of the classics,music/composers,you know,the way teens are raised today!!Parents..role reversal! Cowards! They allow their kids to be the parents,it wasn't like that in the 60's!Spare the rod...spoil the child! We didn't grow up to be serial killers,just because we got the "spoon!" In the 70's-end 90's nobody was killing their children,wives! Look around you...now you're "miffed" because of a channel? Like I said..would YOU say No to thousands of $$$ bec- you'd rather be on another channel???Raising her kids,while "they" make mommy&daddy rich like Lohan's mommy,who never struggled either! What did her teach "her" empty headed daughter?Uncultured as Britany/ I should have been a critic like I wanted to,nobody would have a place to hide! TMZ? now that is a show indeed!After watching a few minutes of Entertainment Tonoght,while they smile their way through the LIES...when just a 1/2 hr before on TMZ the "REAL" story was just told,just too much! So if you dislike "Lifetime" so much,Don't Watch Project Runway"...oh yes The Fashion Show" that crew is forgetable! Their persona's are drab,except for that one female..forgot her name,but she won last week!No Comparisson to ProjectR! Imagine that guy who "doesn't like to sew?"Has anyone "ever" known a person who'd have the "B-----S" to go on a fashion themed show,who cannot sew? Is he just lazy,or didn't he tell the truth when filling out his app?Hostess? forget it! Masraki/ Doesn't he have enough $$$ or does he NEED the exposure? what,it's on BRAVO though! It's boring! The format is boring! Bring back Project..soon...I can't wait! I adore that show! I saw Coors's Line at fashion week& couldn't believe that line re; Tooling? the pleated themed...and by the way VERA..stick to wedding dresses!
19I LOVE ALL THE FASHION SHOWS. I WILL WATCH THEM NO MATTER WHAT NETWORK SHOW THEM. I KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY FOR THE NETWORKS. I'M LOYAL TO THE SHOW NOT THE MONEY MAKERS BEHIND THEM
