Dear Banana Republic Commericals that Ruined the Fun of "Project Runway",
Yeah, I have a question in reference to your ads during the ProjectRunway show on Bravo. I have seen Chapters 8 and 9 ad nauseum. It is a credit to the show (and not the ads, for sure) that I'm so completely obsessed with Project Runway it quite nearly doesn't effect me. If I was witness to an ad campaign this repititive, this relentless, I would surely change the channel to avoid them at all costs. In attempt to find some sort of closure in the story, I came to this web site in search of the elusive"Chapter 10", or at least some resolution for the ridiculous dressing ritual of an imaginary couple that I have seen to the point of memorization. To my utter dismay, Chapters 8, 9 AND 10 were exactly alike. I was wondering if the ads came to any sort of conclusion or perhaps even an end. I suppose I was over shooting with my expectations. I won't be so silly again. I guess I'm just not as beautiful on the inside, too.
Love,
me
PS: I actually sent this letter to Banana Republic. Their response is saved on a comment to this entry...
