A look at some noteworthy television this week: Art in the Twenty-First Century (Sunday, 10:00 p.m., WNET 13) Four artists - Robert Adams, Mark Dion , Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle Ursula von Rydingsvard – who explore the intersection between nature and culture. Billy Crystal: The Mark Twain Prize (Monday & Thursday, 9:00 p.m., WNET 13; Saturday, 7:30 p.m. WLIW 21) Billy Crystal receives the tenth annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center in......

Blogging Project Runway doesn't stop just because the show isn't airing right now. They have some reports in from the auditions for Season 4, and also point to a clip at MTV. They took the picture at right of Jason (who also auditioned for Season 3) - with one of his creations that he hopes will get him on the show. Did he make it work? We'd have to see it on that crazy model......

May the television gods hear our and others' pleas! Last month, the Chicago Tribune's Maureen Ryan broke the news that Tim Gunn was not signed for a fourth season of Project Runway:Will he be back? Ever the modest one, he would only say he "makes no assumptions," but he would come back "in a heartbeat" if asked. There's no official word, by the way, that there will be a fourth season, but it seems more......

Our one quibble with last night's Project Runway Reunion was that it was too short. This should have been a two-hour special. - Keith Michael is ridiculously adorable, but his personality is extremely off-putting - Malan Breton was heartbreaking - he may be weird, he may be from Taiwan, he may be like a Tim Burton character, but it was very moving - We understand every single word that Tim Gunn used except "faux bois"......

Ahhhh! It's Olympus Fashion Week and today, the designers from Project Runway showed their collections! Now, as we all know, all four designers from the Final Four - Jeffrey, Laura, Michael and Uli - get to present at Fashion Week, but one of the shows is a decoy, in order for people not to know who the true Final Three are. (Last year, Kara Janx presented at Fashion Week, though Daniel V., Chloe and......

After last year's mess of an awards show and this year's joke of nominations (where is love for Lauren Graham, Academy of Television Arts & Sciences?), we were going to swear off this year's Emmys. But then we realized Conan O'Brien was hosting, so we must watch and liveblog. And there's the hope of a good Steve Carrell bit, not to mention awkward reaction shots of Candy and Tori Spelling during the Aaron Spelling tribute.......

The NY Sun has a great article about a few of NYC's open performances spaces by critic Francis Morrone. Most people love outdoor venues unconditionally, but the article is thought-provoking in terms of how these spaces should work with their environments. Various bandshells are mentioned, such as Seuffert Bandshell in Queens and the Prospect Park Bandshell in Brooklyn, but one Central Park institution gets a serious dressing-down.The problem with many of our city's outdoor......

Before we jump into talking about episode 1 of Season Three, Gothamist would like to take a few moments to discuss the Auditions show (aka Road to the Runway): - We still love all the Season 3 designers - Chloe, Daniel, Santino, Nick - who appeared on the show. We love that Santino couldn't bear to see the guy in the skintight outfit, we love that Chloe really liked Season 3 candidate Michael's work......

Last night penultimate season 2 episode of Project Runway had its share of fashion ("It's just fashion!") but there were critical visits to the homes of the the final three to see them in the process of designing. This time around, the designers got $8,000 (didn't they get $10,000 last year) to design 12 pieces for the collection, and Heidi Klum and Tim jGunn feted the final three with champagne (and sparkling apple cider) at......

No one needed any more reasons to watch Project Jay, the one hour special about the season one winner of Project Runway, Jay McCarroll, but after reading Virginia Heffernan's assessment in the Times, we Can. Not. Wait. Saying that if he were better-looking, he'd be stupid and die of AIDS? His disdainful family and Heidi Klum's pregnancy-induced indecisiveness? Just living in Park Slope? And that hat is so great. Oh, Jay, we miss you from......

Santino in stilettos? Nerdy Diana getting down? Marla...acting desperately lost? Gothamist loves Project Runway so so much! This week's challenge was to design a party dress for a socialite - and impress her at a party. Since the show's been on hiatus for two weeks, we were thinking that it might be some really, random low-on-the-totem pole socialite, like some toilet seat manufacturer's niece. But the socialite was Nicky Hilton, aka the pretty Hilton (among......

Project Runway has a couple of its season two dresses for sale on various auctions at the PR website. They are winning dresses from Santino and Chloe, plus that terribly-fitting Daniel Franco muslin dress and Diana's deconstructed prom dress. Naturally, Santino's and Chloe's dresses are in the $300+ range, while Daniel's and Diana's dresses are at about $55. Gothamist really loves Santino's dress (right), and maybe, if we removes some ribs and about a third......

Wednesday is now most definitely the new Must See TV night. Not only is there Law & Order, Lost, and CSI: NY on the big networks, there's America's Next Top Model, Veronica Mars, and now Project Runway on Bravo. It is the only night of the week that requires a seriously souped up TiVo set-up, but luckily the UPN and Bravo replay their shows. Project Runway's new season starts with two hours of annoying new......

Jay McCarroll, you rule. Not only do you win Project Runway, but you sorta served Donny Deutsch on his own show. The folks at NBC Universal, which owns both Bravo (that's why Heidi Klum was interviewed on the Today Show) and CNBC (duh), had Jay head over to The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch. Donny blabbed on about giving Jay some marketing and business advice, but this was Gothamist's favorite part: DEUTSCH: You are a......

One of Gothamist's addictions, Project Runway, aired its finale last night, allowing us to sleep better knowing that evil (and ugly) and good (and boring) were soundly defeated by the fun, crazy and exciting! Jay McCarroll, giving little towns in Pennsylvania a good name, beat Kara Saun, the poised costume designer, and Wendy Pepper, the "mom from Virginia" and villainess of the show, and Gothamist couldn't be happier. Jay's runway collection was an explosion of......

Oooh, Miramax and Bravo are going to Project Greenlight-ize America's Top Model by giving the world (or basic cable viewers) Runway, a new model compeititon, with Heidi Klum judging. Bravo thinks it will be a great companion piece to Queer Eye for the Straight Guy; yes, because there's nothing that gay men like more than pretty vacant models to escort around. And Variety reports Miramax head Harvey Weinstein saying Runday "help find and identify the......
