So I have a few must-watch tv shows like the office, how i met your mother, pushing daisies.. etc.. BUT summer hiatus is usually just a sad sad period of crappy, mindless television.
For example, the beginning of the summer had me sucked into Legally Blonde: The Search for the Next Elle Woods. That was some pretty crappy yet fantastic tv which I could talk about for this entire post but I will spare you. If anything just watch Seth Rudetsky’s video blogs about it.. HIlarious.
Anywho a few shows I am so happy are here for the summer: Weeds and Project Runway! And, not to deny my environmental motives, I have green comments about both!
First, i have been catching up with this season of Weeds with the help of Surfthechannel– woo! loves it. In a recent episode, Captain till notes drug dealer Guillermo as “environmentally sensitive” as Celia has a picture of him in Nancy’s Prius. Toyota gets pretty good product placement with the Prius– I mean its no GM and Transformers deal but hey, it’s green and I appreciate it… and check out this clever video using Weeds as a Toyota Prius Commerical
It surprises me though, that as many celebs that drive hybrids and support the environmental cause that more eco-friendly product placements do not make the cut. I know back in November NBC did a whole green programming week but that is kind of nothing in the scope of things…
Needless to say I love weeds… and PR! (Project Runway, obvs)
The most recent episode of PR also feature a green element as models chose green, sustainable fabrics for their designers to engineer a cocktail dress from and let’s just say some were FIERCE and some were FLOPS.
Examples:
So, Loved Suade’s dress and not a fan of Wesley’s. most people used that stupid bronze fabric and it did not look good… I also like Daniel’s design in this episode! But it goes to show you can be eco-chic!
- Suade’s Winning Design
- Shiny, Hot Mess Losing Design
