Lifetime's Project Runway Premiere Ratings Surpass Show's Best On Bravo!

This week's highly anticipated premiere of Project Runway on Lifetime saw ratings for it's season six premiere jump over 45% from the season five bow on Bravo just one year ago, according to THR.

That marks the highest debut ever for both the show, and for Lifetime, which attracted 4.2 million viewers Thursday night.

After a long battle with NBC which threatened to prevent the show from switching nets, PR received not only great reviews, but great ratings for both Runway and Models of the Runway, which got a 1.9 million viewers.

Compare both numbers to Bravo's carbon copy of Runway, The Fashion Show, which only drew an average of 1.2 million viewers, and Bravo's gotta be kicking themselves for letting Runway walk down the catwalk and over to Lifetime!

What did YOU think?



I didn't think it was quite as good as the production on Bravo, but I'm still watching!

I believe the following factors went into play: advertising campaign, Celebrity Judges, (This show is bigger than Lindsey Lohan, In fact Lindsey must have begged to be on this show that is the only positive thing she has done in a very long time. Lindsey have another drink, and get behind the wheel. Yeah RIGHT.
