I love Project Runway!.

Rating: 5
I missed this season when it was on tv, but it is so much better on DVD without the commercials. The Bonus material was a plus, too.

Great Show.

Great show as always. Even if you know nothing about fashion design, the contestants and challenges not to mention the designs themselves will keep you entertained. You can also learn a lot about what's in style. Tim Gunn is the best aspect of the show, as the contestants' mentor.

Another great season .

I think the title covers it.

As a slight negative the cuts to ads are jarringly obvious. I'd never realized watching live how much of a leading to / recap out of ads project runway has. As compared to other shows on DVD it's really striking when the ads are gone.

Still a high-quality show!.

Season Four of "Project Runway" starts out slow, but it builds up steam and draws you in... the show is still a high-class production and leaves other "reality" shows in the dust.

Early on, Tim Gunn pronounces this season's ensemble to be the most talented group they've had on yet... but it's a little hard to believe him since the cast lacks the dynamism and sharply defined personalities of earlier seasons. Nevertheless, a couple of designers quickly reveal themselves as unlikable or bizarre, and that always adds a little narrative spice. I would say that this season was largely packed with bland personalities, but once they drop out in the first half, the show gets more exciting, and when it becomes clear that one of the most irritating contestants has a pretty good shot at winning, the subsequent eliminations will get your adrenaline going.

This season was also marked by constant one-upping on the part of Heidi Klum and the producers -- almost every episode has a twist or a Big Secret. Sure, it's gimmicky... but so what? It's also fun! Perhaps the greatest thing this season is Heidi's new wardrobe -- after being pregnant and having her baby during previous seasons, she's now trimmed back down and is again able to wear whatever she wants. One of the great joys of this season is to watch the reactions of the contestants as Klum arrives on the runway in one eye-popping outfit after another.

Great show. Looking forward to Season Five! (Joe Sixpack, Slipcue film reviews)
