Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 7:53am on Friday, November 20th, 2009 | Salon wants to know why Lifetime seems to have smothered the baby it adopted from Bravo. Heather Havrilesky writes on November 20, 2009:
"Irina Shabeyeva won last night's finale of "Project Runway," which might have been interesting if it were remotely unexpected, or if someone said something memorable during the entire finale.
Where were the demented comments and the late-night breakdowns and the mimicry of former seasons? Were the contestants chosen without any regard to their personalities or lack thereof? Or did the producers do an awful job of encouraging spirited talk and then editing it together to form a provocative narrative?
The story of season six was that there was no story."

Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 6:18pm on Sunday, October 18th, 2009 | The Lifetime TV website has launched "All the Looks," an interactive website for celebrity style fans featuring a searchable database of tens of thousands of celebrity fashion and hair photos from red carpet events.
Thanks to an advanced photo-finder tool, visitors to Lifetime's All the Looks can customize their searches to find celebrity looks organized by dozens of criteria, such as celebrity name; event; hair color, length and style; and clothing designer, color and pattern.
The site has images from more than 2,000 red-carpet events and showcases more than 450 fashion designers and 600 celebrities. Virtually any red carpet photo may be available on the site.
Fans can not only view and rate celebrity photos, but they can also select images to add to customized "lookbooks," which they can caption with their own comments and easily share with friends. These lookbooks give users the ability to categorize photos according to their own needs, such as ideas for a new haircut, favorite awards show outfits, this year's worst dressed, fashion inspirations or a favorite celebrity's style through the years.

Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 6:37pm on Thursday, February 26th, 2009 | February 25, 2009: Media Life magazine reported that Bravo's top-rated show Project Runway could be headed for Lifetime, depending on the outcome of a court battle:
"Last year the women’s network poached the Weinstein Company-produced reality show in a deal worth millions, but NBC Universal filed suit to stop the defection, arguing that the Weinsteins had breached their contract. The court has barred the new season from airing on either network until the issue is resolved, and the two sides are due back in court next month for a hearing on an appeal by Lifetime."
