LA*SURFPUNK is already in love with Preston and we'll be rooting for him!!!
Reality Blurred has this to say:
That Top Design made it to a second season, which debuts tonight at 10 p.m. ET, is probably about as surprising as Shear Genius had a second season, since both were weak, deformed siblings of Project Runway and Top Chef. For some reason, 12 of the 13 contestants are from the same four cities: New York (5), Los Angeles (3), Atlanta (2), and Houston (2).
As happened with the hair cutting competition, the interior design competition gets its own makeover. Producers Stone and Company were fired and replaced by Magical Elves, while Todd Oldham got demoted to mentor and was replaced by new host India Hicks. It’s also in high definition for those who get Bravo in HD. Also, as previews suggest, the show will leave the empty white box challenges behind for more real-world design challenges.
For some bizarre reason, however, they’ve retained the trio of lame judges, Jonathan Adler, Margaret Russell, and Kelly Wearstler. If Jonathan Adler says the ever-insulting “you can stay” or the horrific “see you later, decorator,” I’d be ready to throw a brick through my TV, except I love it too much. I’ll probably just break the mute button on the remote from pressing it so hard as soon as he opens his mouth.
****************************
Bravo’s reinvention and makeover of its interior decorator competition series Top Design has resulted in the show getting a new host and producers, but keeping its trio of sucky judges. A press release says the show will also have “a new look in high-definition” and “is currently in production and is set to air on Bravo in third quarter 2008.”
Todd Oldham has been bumped from host to the Tim Gunn role as mentor, where he definitely belongs. In his place as host is India Hicks, who Bravo says “is the daughter of famed interior decorator David Hicks and Lady Pamela Hicks” and “has enjoyed a successful career as a fashion model.” She has also published two interior design books: Island Life: Inspirational Interiors and Island Beauty.
But the absolute worst part of the entire series has not changed. The show’s three judges, Jonathan Adler, Margaret Russell, and Kelly Wearstler will remain. Let’s just hope new producers Magical Elves, who produce Project Runway, will force Jonathan Adler to never utter his moronic send-off line again.
