TV Worth Watching
"Project Runway" Season 16 (Thursday on Lifetime at 9 p.m.)
"Project Runway" fans were not happy to see Kenya eliminated before New York Fashion Week, but PR wouldn't be PR if we weren't mad about something. The much-too-dramatic Season 16 will end on November 16, and the competition will probably come down to Brandon vs. Ayana. Here's hoping Ayana takes it over the judges' perpetual favorite. Check out the finale collections for a full preview.
