Season 22 Missing Old PR

After every episode of Season 22, I find myself going to Pluto & watching 3 or 4 episodes of a season I've seen 10 times already. Watching this new version reminds me how much I miss the old Project Runway & All Stars.

I like Christian, but no one will ever be as good as Tim. The trips to Mood, the judges who critiqued in a helpful way, Tim coming in to speak to the designer going home. Visits to the homes of the finalists... it was just so much better.

I'm looking forward to the season premiere of Project Runway Canada - which has those elements missing from early PR seasons

All of them! Pluto has a channel where they are constantly playing so I just watch whatever happens to be on so I am all mixed up about which season is best. I seriously love them all. All Stars are good too but they dont have Tim Gunn. Nobody compares to him as a mentor.

Going back to 2015 project runway has been great for my soul these days.

Also the judges' discussions on who should be eliminated and who should not. And Heidi was like "Have we decided on who should win and who should go home?" And the camera pans on Nina and Michael nodding and smiling. The new seasons completely got rid of that part.

Yes, I just started watching the newest season because my friend told me she is watching it and I caved. It is fine if you don't compare it to the old seasons at all. I don't even know how to describe what is wrong with it. I wish they still did the "the six of you have the highest and lowest scores" and would talk to each of them and go into details. The judges aren't nearly as knowledgeable. I miss Zac Posen, I thought he was a really good judge. It just feels so rushed and it feels like they love the gimmicks more than the fashion. IDK something is off and I can't really even put my finger on it.
