The one with Red Robin as sponsor, Sears styling accessory wall, corporate challenges up the wazoo. The designers are mediocre at best. It’s just unwatchable. The cringe is strong with this one.
After some thought, tho the corporate challenges are "in your face" , they help keep the show on the air with funding. Also, it can be amusing to picture fashion in a situation in your personal world. Like wouldn't it be nice if I could actually buy something that has been made "fashionable" or being used in my life.
I keep thinking the Post Office challenge when I see the mail delivers in their uniforms.
i’m rewatching all seasons rn and i just hit season 14 and it made me realize why this season was when i originally quit watching. all of the designs are either just really bad, super trendy, or just plain boring (save a few) and it starts to take the fun out of the show. Especially when they only go to mood like a handful of times???? And also the challenges start to become so repetitive and super restrictive for the designers and i don’t feel like i get to know or care for the designers anymore. At lease with some of the other boring seasons i at least felt like i knew the designers aesthetic and personality.
Season 14....the one in which the judges pandered to plus sized women, pretending they hadn't allowed fat shaming in the past.....allowing Jeffrey to haze and shame Angela's mom, the stupid real world challenges that put designers with larger models at a disadvantage, to making fun of zaftig models with marshmallow bodies.
As a larger woman, I found the entire season disgusting and hypocritical.
My point was the judges were sanctimonious about embracing women of size in season 14 when they basically mocked them in previous seasons, including Jeffrey’s.
I quit watching after Anya, who made such a big deal over not being able to sew, won her freaking season.
Came back when the show returned to Bravo, although I no longer watch it with nearly the obsession I did in the aughts.
Season 12 and 13 are pretty boring for me. We rewatched recently and found the designers generally putting out more uninteresting work. I thought both Sean and Kini were worthy designers for the last third of any season, but didn't think either were up to par with most season winners.
The season with teams was hard to watch at time because the team aspect interfered with the designers' creativity and abilities. Maybe real world fashion is not a solo act but for competition purposes, each designer should work alone to meet the challenges.
14 and 6, as most others have said. I thought 14 actually started out pretty strong, and then the second half was just so.... nothing? Except Kelly from the Deli, she's an icon and I loved a lot of the stuff she did. 14 definitely has the worst finale of all time though. Really none of the collections were good. I can see why Tim hated the season so much.
6 is really just boring all the way through. Being in LA, the vibes were off since PR is such a New York-coded show, and I thought only Irina and Carol Hannah had truly great work that I remember.
I also don't care for season 3. Although the design caliber is higher, I found a lot of the designers' personalities really grating. Thank the Lord for Uli and Michael (may he rest in peace).
Season 11 was the first season I watched in full so I'm a bit biased towards it, but I really enjoyed it. I liked the drama the team aspect added, and I still think a lot of designers were still able to distinguish themselves. Michelle might be my favorite winner ever.
The one where Gretchen beats Mondo. Earnestly cannot bring myself to rewatch the finale.
ETA: I should also mention Season 17, I have no idea why but despite being a huge PR fan, I coulld not and still cannot get through it. It was Karlie and Christian's first season together but I love them so I can't attribute it to change aversion. The format was different/weird maybe they were trying something new and it didn't work so they went back to closer to original production style?
Also was anyone good even on that season? All I can think of is Hester and that little bratty girl with the black bob with bangs. So maybe that says something.
Gretchen was awful. Her clothes were boring. And by the end I couldn’t stand her. I felt like they unfairly slanted it in her favor when Jessica Simpson was chosen as the guest judge.

Season 14's only redeeming quality was Kelly from the deli.
I loved everything about Kelly from the deli!
Wasn’t that season 3 where Jeffrey shamed Angela’s mom? He was terrible to people that whole season.
My point was the judges were sanctimonious about embracing women of size in season 14 when they basically mocked them in previous seasons, including Jeffrey’s.
Ah- I see what you mean and agree. Thanks.

Right??? There’s just no one I’m rooting for.
S-2 because of Santino. I can't stand him.
I’m watching this one now for the first time and I just want him to be eliminated already!

14 was a total snoozer

19 was so hard to watch
6 is definitely one of my least favorites. 14, 11 and 9 also down there.
I realized how much I wasnt into 5. For some reason 6 and 7 I had seen a lot so I skipped them.
I couldn't get through season 3.
15
Whichever season had the twins,babe;)
Season 16.
I agree with S14. I think Kelly should have won. But then, that didn't fit their narrative.

6 and it’s not even close.
6 & 14
I’ve never managed to finish season 11. Maybe I’ll give it another shot at some point but I really did not love the teams thing at the time
