Not So Top Design
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I’ve been pretty out of touch with reality TV lately (there’s just soooooo much of it), but this weekend in an effort to avoid work, I camped on the couch (umm, the one I still haven’t sold) and turned on Bravo.
It wasn’t long before I was sucked into a show I hadn’t seen before - Top Design Season 2
The show operates pretty much like any other, except this time it’s interior designers competing for $100,000 and a spread in Elle Decor.
On Episode 5, the designers competed in a decorating triathlon designing a chair, a place setting and a photo shoot worthy room. They had the requisite clashes and catty comments, but compared to the personalities on Project Runway or ANTM, it was pretty tame stuff.
I found myself checking the clock and counting down minutes until the next episode of Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style. Not even when Natalie, a designer who currently lives in Atlanta, won the final challenge could I generate much enthusiasm (her winning room is above).
Is anyone watching Top Design? What are your thoughts on the show?
