Runway Letters Answered by Production Boss!

I love getting emails from you guys and every so often they give me cause to pause. Here's a recent batch of questions and my answers.

Linda emailed two weeks ago and said: "The Paris episode last night crossed the line from "creative competition in a fishbowl" to something more closely approaching pointless cruelty. Why take people to Paris who have never been there only to put the 'loser' right back on a plane?"

Hey Linda. I got a lot of emails like this. Angela did spend the night in Paris after she was eliminated. She spent 24 hours in Paris, though ... that's 24 hours more than she'd spent there in her life! She was a great sport about turning back around and viewed the whole experience with a great attitude. There was a moment in time when we considered having Catherine Malandrino at the AIRPORT GATE to do the elimination after they'd stepped off the plane, but we decided that was just plain mean.

In response to the blog where Ralph Fiennes interviewed me about Runway, RP wrote: "I have one question: How did you become 'pals' with Ralph? If it is true, you seem worlds apart."

Yes, RP, we are worlds apart. I got a bunch of questions asking me if that interview was fake, so thanks for your faith in me, everybody! I wouldn't fake an interview with someone and post it. I've known Ralph for five or six years through some mutual friends who are actors and former co-stars of The English Patient.

Max writes: "My question is about the double-elimination that resulted from auf'ing Bonnie after Keith left. Does this mean we are down an episode now? Was there later supposed to be a team elimination that got scaled back? I hope so! I mean, maybe Bonnie's cowl was a little on the dowdy side -- but surely it wasn't so ugly as to suck an entire episode of PR down the drain! :-)"

I wish I had known about your blog back when Alyson was eliminated, because that's what I'm complaining about. Her elimination was wrong, wrong, wrong! And don't tell me you didn't get a ton of emails about it. What was up with the judging? Even Tim Gunn was shocked. And, you missed the perfect opportunity to bring her back --- with Angela and Vincent -- (although I disagreed that those two in particular were allowed one more shot.) Alyson was unjustly auf'ed, pure and simple. At least bring her back for season 4!

I LOVE this show Project Runway! I would like to see more more more!
Heidi is delicate and beautiful. She is a definite asset to Project Runway. I look forward to viewing the different outfits she wears and how her hair is styled for each. Gives me some ideas for myself as well.
I also like the clothing designs of Michael Knight and Laura (the redhead). Both very well done, and I would most likely purchase some of their designs if given the opportunity.
Keep up the good work and hope to see more more more of Project Runway.

Hello from the Great White North's biggest PR fan!

As if being glared at by the Fab 5 and smiled at by Santino and meeting Nick V. for six seconds at Miss Universe this year wasn't enough...and reading/watching/absorbing all the amazing Bravo web site's PR content to keep me uber-informed since season 3 just started in Canada on Labo(u)r Day... now I find out you love Jerri Blank!

Fandango?

Mr. Andy, you make good TV. God bless ya.
