I have not owned a tv in years. However, there are shows that I love and cannot miss, like Project Runway! I choose to buy the entire season and watch as the episodes become available. Its worked great until this year. Normally episodes become available next day. However, now I am asked pay $1.99 to watch it next day even though I have already paid for the entire season! The free episode doesn't become available for another day. This is a sham and should be corrected immediately! This is just taking advantage at this point!

I love Project Runway! In this season 14 there is a nice mix of contestants and challenges. However, I am very surprised and frankly, disappointed at the lack of actual sewing ability, knowledge of fabrics (and what they do) and general lack of taste level (within each contestant's aesthetic) that can carry a design through to the finish and win. This is NOT one of the best seasons, but as with all Project Runways, you learn to love all of the contestants as people who aspire to design and please. Sadly one contestant burns out early and it appears that substances play a role. When I think of the many, many talented young people, I think the selection process was poor and the vetting even worse. Step it up! I wanted to get excited, but found it tedious and lack luster. I watched the final episode of season 14 and I could not believe who won. This was a pandering choice and I felt that the real winner was denied for the sake of demographics. I liked all of the contestants, but I never expect to watch a reality game show that slants and panders the end results. The person that won is an interesting designer with an important voice, but not the top talent, in my opinion.

One of my favorites...I love the show, but, I'm not happy that the episodes have to be purchased. There's another show that I watch from time to time on the network app when I want to catch up, and the episodes are free.
