"Isn't that all we should ask for?"

I love his comics, but I have to disagree with that line. But then again, if I want intelligent television perhaps I should be watching PBS.

Oh well. Bravo, I still love you!

thanks for the ride, Tom and Lorenzo!
You guys add that extra sauce that makes PR worth watching... Best blog on the interwebs!

You guys rule!

And thank you to you Alex! as well.

You & Tlo are at least as important to the enjoyability of the show as any of those who appear on screen.

THANKS!

Alex naked.... Hmmmm, going to have to ponder that for a while...

I loved the cartoons, Alex, and I'm going to miss them. Maybe you should take up courtroom illustration and follow the machinations of NBC/Lifetime smack down.

I really hope that's soap he's holding.

Alex, your toons have been a lot of fun this season. Thank you!!

The cute cartoon of Korto cracked me up. I hope that Alex and Nathan meet up some day.

Alex!, I hope that's a bar of soap in your right hand!!

As for whether it's all we should ask for, I disagree: what we should ask for is Project Runway blogged by TLo and cartooned by Alex!.

Sorry, Al. I see you beat me to the soap observation!

Re: "I hope that's a bar of soap in your hand"...

I had to go back and look at the panel again...
and then I totally cracked up ROFL!!

Thanks Alex! See you next year. It wouldn't all be the same without you (and TLo).

Brooklyn? Has he run into Kenley yet?

Thanks Alex for your contributions to the fun of Project Runway.

On weak garment weeks, you & TLo are the best thing about it.

Alex, I've really enjoyed your comic strips this season! I hope you continue adding to the fun!

I really wanted to see a Stella runway show though :(
My one issue with this season: her contrived elimination. She could have made it into the final six for sure.

Soap or loofah? LOL

I would love to bid on Alex!'s rendition of Where The Wild Things Are.

Thank you, Alex! !

*gasp*
Do I spy a Roast Beef shirt? That is way too amusing for me, though the entire strip was a delight to read.

Ha! Alex! likes Kenley because she looks like a comic book character.
Thanks for sharing the strips. I know they must be a lot of work!

To: Tom, Lorenzo and Alex, a super WOW..

Thanks to all... you made PR much more enjoyable ! ... Happy Happy Happy, Joy Joy Joy . . .

Great cartoon, Alex!

Keep up the good work!

If Kenley were to go down 4 sizes she would actually be really hot. Shes abit meaty.

Her sis looks cute as hell too. Mmmm.

Love it! Thanks Alex/T-Lo!

4 sizes?!?!

The hell you say! Girl could stand to put ON about 10 pounds!

True enough, Alex.

Thanks to Alex and, of course, to Tom and Lorenzo. Great recaps and lots of fun. Looking forward to your posts were integral to my enjoyment of Season 5. Thank you!!

Alex! I can't help but improve my mood after one of your comics. You (and TLo of course) have made PR enjoyable and at times bearable.

Thank you all!

Kenley is too meaty?

:shakes head:

Thanks, Alex; your taste is impeccable and your cartoons made this season better.

But man, drawing yourself in the shower with your junk in your hand -- that's just exhibitionist of you!

Alex, you're the shizzz!!
Thanks for making Rungay even better!
I didn't think that was possible but you made it so!
Thanks for sharing your gift!

Oh my god, I love it!

Now, Alex, is that a soap bar or you're just happy to see me? : )

Thank you so much for your hilarious and fabulous strips. Thanks, Tlo, for allowing such a great talent be part of this blog.

Here's the latest:
Lifetime Wants To Shift 'Runway' Battle To Federal Court
Women’s Network Requests Venue Shift For Lawsuit
-- Multichannel News, 10/18/2008 7:05:00 AM

Lifetime is looking for a change in legal venue in the battle to move Project Runway to its air.

The women’s targeted-network, just hours before lawyers for The Weinstein Co. and NBC Universal were scheduled to meet with a New York Supreme Court judge about the next phase of the case, asked that the action involving the hit reality series' future be shifted to federal court.

Late last month, the New York court okayed NBCU's request for a preliminary injunction, stopping The Weinstein Co. from moving the reality series to Lifetime from Bravo, which wrapped up its fifth turn with the show Wednesday night. The parties had been expected to meet in court that day, Oct. 15, but the Jewish holidays had backed up the schedule and pushed the meeting to Oct. 17.

Last spring, Lifetime reached a five-year deal for the show, beginning with a sixth season that was originally expected to bow in November. The Lifetime launch was subsequently pushed into January, before the latest round of legal wrangling commenced. .

"Lifetime today removed the Project Runway lawsuit from state court to federal court," the network said in a statement. "We did this because any issue relating to Lifetime's exclusive right to air future cycles of Project Runway is a matter of federal copyright law and therefore should be heard by a federal court. We continue to believe that Lifetime has rights superior to NBCU's claimed right of first refusal on future cycles of Project Runway."

NBCU issued its own response: "Hours before the state court judge was to set a trial schedule, Lifetime chose to pursue legal maneuvers to shift the case to federal court, which will only delay the proceedings. NBC Universal will vigorously fight this eleventh-hour move and intends to file legal papers seeking to remand the case to state court."

Weinstein officials weren’t immediately available for comment.

The Weinstein Co. in April reached a reported five-year, $200 million deal with Lifetime for distribution of Project Runway. However, Bravo sued Weinstein over the contract, arguing that the company did not honor NBC Universal's and Bravo's right of first refusal before signing a pact with any other company for new seasons of the show.

On Sept. 25, New York State Supreme Court judge Richard Love III granted NBCU and Bravo a preliminary injunction against The Weinstein Co. from taking the series or any spin-off thereof to the women’s-targeted cable network.

OHMYGOD I just noticed that Heidi is holding her velvet bag. ROFL.

I love it! Thanks, Alex. You're the best!

Alex, I'm so stopping at your store. The eBay thing is a great idea. You should definitely do it. Thanks for all the laughs and great artwork.

Fun Fun Fun as always, Alex.

You in the shower: What were you shaving with the razor? You always seem to have scruff or a beard going on. Were you perhaps shaving hair off a Chris March original?

Very cute comic, and a nice, positive wrap up for the season. :)

4 sizes?!?!

The hell you say! Girl could stand to put ON about 10 pounds!


Oh, Alex, I love you even MORE now!!

Auntie L

Allow me a moment or two to recover from the shot of Alex in the shower.

Ahem.

Okay.

Thank you, Alex and TLo! Y'all just rock. And not only that, but you're way cool, too. Maybe that's redundant, but I kind of don't care. My first stop every single time I fire up the computer is this blog. Sometimes it's just for a quick pick me up, but mostly it's because I enjoy your commentary, the strips, and many of the others who comment here.

Until your next post, bye-bye! (Said in my most girlish Heidi voice)

P.S. Kenley Monthly -- hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Alex, thank you for all the time and humor you put into your PR Toons. I'll keep my eye out for your stuff on auction, because your panels for Season 4's "What did you do on Prom night?" still make me giggle and snort!

Alex is right: Duchess did bring it with this group. Do you think he practiced at home in between seasons? I loved "slutty, slutty, slutty"... and have muttered at parties.

Sure, hot girls can get away with a lot. But when Kenley starts to wrinkle and sag; oh, f- it, I'm so over her....

Thank you Alex, and thank you TLo for the weekend posts!

Bare Naked Alex!

The mind boggles. Ahem.

All the best to you Alex! Thanks for putting the funnies in the fun.

Thanks Alex!, you are wonderful and I agree with your take on this season. I love your toons and look forward to whatever you choose to toon about in the future, but can I ask for a Wisit toon? Or Kelly Wearstler? How divine would that be????

Alex is the best. :) Next to Tom and Lorenzo of course.

Boys, boys, boys, you all are outdoing yourselves with the weekend posts, your minions are not worthy!

Alex!, hugs and kisses and I hope you'll stick around the Rungay for further episodes. You also make some very valid points. I still this this season was pretty pale but, well, I suppose I'll be back. Because I love reading TLo's commentary on it!

Just adding my thanks for all the toons, Alex. You rock.

Oh, I would love to buy an original Alex cartoon, however I fear I would not have enough money! Well, I can look......

Kzspot

By the way, in real life, the facial hair is fine. But I like clean shaven cartoon Alex the best!

Keep staying awesome!

Just wanted to clarify...

IT'S A BAR OF SOAP.

"slutty slutty slutty" is my favorite PR line this season (or at least the one I can remember).

Thank you for the comics!

I loved this season too!

Love the comics but sadly I have to disagree.

I did not enjoy this season as much as the previous seasons. But I did enjoy reading the comics and the Rungay blog - without TLo I'd probably stopped watching long ago, so thanks.

I ♥ Alex.

I know most people will respond to this comment in a "Whoa, that unfunny feminist is TOTALLY overreacting! Lighten up!" sort of way, but I have to say it: doesn't anyone else think Alex's stance on Kenley is at least a little sexist? I have a problem with judging women based on how they look and not what they say or do.

That being said, his comics are very cute and funny.

I will say that it makes me very happy not to be a straight guy. Or a guy at all, for that matter.

Darnit! I wanted to be the first one to spy the Achewood!

alex!, alarmed, said...

>Just wanted to clarify...

Oh. Damn.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Oh I do hope there is another season, if for no othter reason than to have more Alex 'toons and TLo commentary!

kaitlin@11:04 am:

... doesn't anyone else think Alex's stance on Kenley is at least a little sexist? I have a problem with judging women based on how they look and not what they say or do.

I think what Kenley "says and does" is a completely separate issue from Alex' response to her looks.

One is social, experienced by the world at large. The other is biological/emotional, experienced by Alex.

Where would you say the sexism lies? And where is the "judgment"?

I agree 100%. This season was very entertaining, and the final 3 were as strong as any finalists before them. And Leanne is one of my favorite winners. So, yes, Alex, I totally agree, and awesome strip, as usual.

I love the green lantern logo on his shirt.

Also, HETERO MALE PR FANS REPRESENT!

Tim Gunn is truly a superhero! In past seasons he said "bitchslap" and even made that sound eloquent.

Joy: "I think what Kenley "says and does" is a completely separate issue from Alex' response to her looks.

Where would you say the sexism lies? And where is the "judgment"?"

He is saying that he doesn't care how she acts or what she says because she's hot. Focusing entirely on beauty and ignoring character/personality is sexist. I'm certainly not saying he's a bad person (because he clearly isn't; he seems sweet, smart and funny), or even that HE is sexist, but that stance is.
