Project Runway S7

Project Runway finally back in stride
Project Runway has always been a true guilty pleasure that has provided much entertainmeent. The first 5 seasons were on Bravo and the show shined for it managed to provide contestants with unique and quirky personalities, great talent, a great host in Heidi Klum and very unique challenges that allowed the contestants to show their true capabilities. Then there was the beloved fashion guru Tim Gunn who is the glue that holds the whole show together with hist wit, personality and spot on criticisms. No judges could be more perfect here than Michael Kors ann Nina Garcia. There was a magic to all this that just made the show one of the best reality shows on tv. Some thought it started to die down with season 5 but I totally disagree. Every viewer will have a favorite season based on the contestants that were on each season. It hugely comes down to them and their personalities and talent. My favorite season was season 2 with Daniel. For many it was season 4 with Christian Siriano.But all agree that with season 6 when the show made its huge move to Lifetime it became a big bore. The location was moved from New York to Los Angeles which started off everything that was bad. New York always provided a quick pace, hustle and strong vibrancy that was a huge part of the show. New York is also the fashion mecca and Los Angeles was just a huge mistake. And due to the location change Michael Kors and Nina Garcia were usually not avaiuible to judge and this totally killed the show. And add to it the most boring contestants ever. Each one lacked any personality, had very average talent and the whole season was very predictable. You knew who the winner would be from the beginning and you just didn't care. What a waste.But now we have season 7 and Hooray!! - It is back in New York, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia are again permanent residents and the vibrancy has returned. There is again a great mix of contestants with varying talents and personalities. Lots of fun. My favorites are Anthony, Ping, Jonathan, Mila and Seth. Challenges are again very inventive, trips to MOOD for supplies are again fun and bottom line - Project Runway is back in all its glory. Don't let the fall with season 6 scare you away. Season 7 is again a return to all that has made Project Runway shine and such a hit. Let Heidi and Tim Gunn guide you on a journey filled with lots of fun, drama, personality and most of all great fashion talent. Again contestants you will care about and challenges that will hugely entertain. Highly recommended.

Faulty DVDs
Thank goodness for Amazon's great return policy. I purchased PR7 to complete my full set of seasons. Got it in, played it, and found Disc 2 wouldn't play completely through. I contacted Amazon, they supplied me a label for the return, and before I could get the package on it's way, the replacement had arrived!UNfortunately, the replacement set had the exact same problem. Disc 2 didn't not play through, and you couldn't skip over the problem area to watch "around" the problem area.I will just wait a few months and re-order the set, hoping the run of bad DVD's has sold out or been taken off the shelves.As for the set itself - it's Project Runway! What's not to like?!

At the top or near the top of the list of my favorite seasons. Another top three that all deserved to win. The designs and the construction were incredible, and the designers had such incredible taste. And any season that has Anthony Williams is a great season. It is really nice to see someone that all the designers liked and wanted around, do well. Kinda another Chris March. Wow, wouldn't it be great to have a show or season with both of them on. And like season 4, all the designers, with a couple of exceptions (I'm looking at you, Mila and Jay!) got along very well.

good show, poor DVD
PR7 is just great, in my opion, it is the best since season 4 (no one can beat talented Christian, ever). There are so many positives: many great designers, back to NY, Nina and Kors were there almost all the time, no stupid drama, interesting challenges.I give 4 star instead of 5 mainly because the DVD content, it lack of special features and even lack of reunion episode. I think every PR fans would like to know a little bit more of those designers and challenges even what else did judges say. Every DVD has extras. And no reunion!! speechless, I don't know what were they thinking!

Back In It's Stride
I agree with many of the other comments - it was really nice to see the show return to its roots. It definitely is not the same based in LA. New York just seems far more organic to the fashion world. I really liked seeing the normal judges more often. I also think some of the contestants in this show were, on average, more talented than in some of previous series. There are no huge clashes of character, like in series one, but interesting designers all the same.My only complaint is the lack of any special features to the DVD. Clearly it is put out there as quick as possible, without any extra care taken with providing extra info for fans. I would really like to know what happened to the designers after the show -- say 6 months down the road. Did their careers take off or not? Past DVD's made a lazy attempt to do this, but at least it was something... hence my 3 star rating.Overall, if you've seen all the other Project Runways, you're probably going to buy this series, not matter what I say, and so you should - at the end of the day, despite my gripes, it's one of the better additions.

Awesome season
"Project Runway: Season 7"------------------------------------An awesome season -- possibly the best ever, certainly on a par with the Seasons One and Two. The talent level was very high, the personalities almost all were appealing (except for one obligatory bad guy) and the competition was genuinely, intensely competitive. Good stuff. Last time around, in Season Six, it seemed like they had totally lost it, but the show was back in full force this time around, and I'm definitely eager to see how the next season unfolds.

Love Season Seven
Am about half way through this DVD and loving it. I am rather biased though. Project Runway never gets old. So far no head melting challenges like make an outfit from candy or vegetables. Am not a lover of these. Tim Gunn his usual fabulous self. My favourite designer in this challenge so far is Anthony. I don't know who the winner is however I believe Anthony will get on in life whatever happens. One of the best Project Runways I have seen. I have seen about eight.

Ich liebe Project Runway aber nicht abspielbar
Ich bin ein großer Fan von Design Shows und habe mir diese DVD gekauft da auf der Seite des Senders stand das die Videos nicht in meinem Land zugelassen seien. Als ich die DVD in den Fernseher schob zeigte der an: in deinem Land nicht verfügbar. Am Ende konnte ich die Staffel auf meinem Laptop gucken, aber der Laptop hat natürlich nicht so eine gute Auflösung. Für den Preis würde ich vom Kauf abraten.
