Drop Dead Diva is Back!

I was so disappointed when I found out that Drop Dead Diva had been canceled at the end of its fourth season. Not only did I love the show and want it to continue, but season four ended with such a big cliffhanger that I was even more disappointed. So, I was so excited when I found out that the series would be back for a fifth season.

The first episode of season five premiered last week on Lifetime, and I'm so glad that it's back. It's like welcoming good friends back into my living room. And the episode did not disappoint; it even ended with a scene that I've been waiting for since the series debuted in 2009.

For the next 13 weeks, Sundays will be my Diva days.

Welcome back, Jane!

Drop Dead Diva is Coming Back!

Lifetime canceled one of my favorite TV series in January, and I was very disappointed. Well, it looks like a lot of other viewers were disappointed too, and they let Lifetime know about it. And, wonder of wonders, Drop Dead Diva is coming back!

Lifetime has ordered 13 episodes for season 5, which will premiere on June 23, and will pick up from the season 4 cliffhanger.

Thank you for listening to your viewers, Lifetime!

Drop Dead Diva is Back!

The Lifetime series Drop Dead Diva is back for its fourth season, and if the new season can be judged by its first episode, it's going to be great.

Project Runway: Welcome Back All Stars

They're back! And so is Project Runway!

All Stars have returned to Project Runway, and even with a different host and judges, and a new mentor, it feels like the old Bravo days when Project Runway had characters.

The last few seasons of Project Runway have become a bit dull. And Heidi Klum, Michael Kors, Nia Garcia, and Tim Gunn have become the stars of the show.

I've never had favorite contestants, but I was happy to see a few come back as all stars. Welcome back Kenley, Rami, and especially Mondo! I'm looking forward to seeing what they will do this season, especially after seeing the first episode.

I like the new judges, designers Isaac Mizrahi and Georgina Chapman (co-founder of Marchesa). I also like the new mentor, Joanna Coles. She is the editor-in-chief of Marie Claire, so she knows what to look for and what kind of advice to give. She also knows what she would want to wear.

Speaking of the first episode, it's so good to see that most of the looks were good. It was easy to guess who would be in bottom three. Poor Elisa, with her quirky point of view. If you have to explain the meaning of your look you're not doing yourself any favors. However, I thought that Sweet P's dress should have sent her home.

I was wrong with who was out, and I also guessed the winner wrong.

Even though I thought Rami's dress was very original and well constructed I'm sure, I loved Mondo's little black dress. Loved it! I love that he even made a fascinator (and I love that after last year's royal wedding, the public may now even know what a fascinator is). I think Mondo should have won the challenge. However, one challenge win does not an All Stars winner make, so this could still be Mondo's season.

On a side note: it's so strange to see high heeled legs walk across the screen and hear "Coming up on Project Runway," and it's not Heidi Klum's voice. That American accent just doesn't sound right.
