Description of Project Runway: The Complete Fourth Season:
The fourth season of Project Runway returns with another group of telegenic contestants intent on winning the $100,000 cash prize and the chance to jumpstart their careers as fashion designers. The 15 competitors include sensitive Ricky Lizdale, earth mama Kathleen Vaughn, and impishly adorable Christian Siriano. Thanks to his quirky looks, hip designs, and popular catchphrases ("fierce," "ferosh," "hot tranny mess"), Siriano became such a pop culture sensation that he was parodied by Amy Poehler on Saturday Night Live. Though it is full of drama and its share of cat fighting, Project Runway has always been a step above your run-of-the-mill reality series. Whereas The Hills relies on a coterie of frenemies to ramp up its ratings, Project Runway actually seems interested in the contestants and how they will succeed in life beyond the series. Hosted by supermodel Heidi Klum, who exhibits a wry sense of humor while keeping the show moving at a brisk pace, the series is smartly entertaining. Fan favorite Tim Gunn returns, as does judge Nina Garcia. This season's guest stars include fashionista Sarah Jessica Parker, who helps critique the contestants' creations for her affordable Bitten line. But former football pro Tiki Barber is a scene stealer, appearing in an episode where the competitors have to design an outfit for him to wear on television. (Some of the pieces that the cast comes up with challenge the notion that Barber looks good in anything.) All 13 episodes from the Bravo series are included in this four-disc set. By the time Klum says auf wiedersehen to the runner up, most viewers will agree that the right contestant won. --Jae-Ha Kim
Project Runway: The Complete Fourth Season Reviews:
Fantastic, as usal 
2009-11-23 - Although this season was not my favorite because the judges seemed to have a favorite from very early on, but it was delightful to watch it unfold. There are some thrilling challenges (I won't list them in case you haven't seen them yet). As usual, I found myself watching each disc in one sitting; it's riveting, even on a rewatch.
Best season of Project Runway 
2009-10-03 - This is the only reality tv show I watch. I love to see creative, hardworking, supportive people rewarded for making art that is both beautiful and functional. All of the Seasons of Project Runway are amazing, but Season 4, in particular, had contestants who had skill and talent in spades and seemed to genuinely care for each other, or at least respect each other's work. This show inspires me every time I watch an episode.
I Love Project Runway!
2009-10-01 - I started watching Project this season, but because I started watching it in the middle I wanted to get caught up completely on it. I have purchased all the past seasons now and am completely up to date! I love watching this show with all of the fashion and drama (there is plenty of drama for sure!). It is always fun to see the new contestents and the results of each weeks challenges. I am so glad that the show is back on again, but I do NOT like Model Runway, too much High School. Watch and enjoy the show and get to know Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn. A++++
The best reality show
2009-09-15 - I absolutely LOVE this show and have been watching it since it started. This lull of time that passed as the show established its new home on the Lifetime network put me thru major PROJECT RUNWAY withdrawal and so I purchased all 5 previous seasons on dvd. What a treat. Any show is more enjoyable on dvd without commercials and editing. To watch the show from the first episode till the last without any interruptions allowed me to gain even more from this season than before. I love all the seasons but found this one to be the best. I thought this was the season with the most talented fashion designers and the season leads to a final three all deserving to be showing their line at fashion week.
The show is always adhesively held together thru the charm and wit of Heidi Klum and the show could not exist without the heart and guidance of Tim Gunn. And judges Nina Garcia and Michael Kors always have honest, valuable opinions as each projects designs are shown on the runway. The unique thing about PROJECT RUNWAY is that all the contestants are people seriously pursuing a career in fashion with intense drive and the judges are all experts in the field as is Tim Gunn. The drama that unfolds on the show is not manuipulated but merely due to the fact that while having these contestants do challenge after challenge and get eliminated one by one they form relationships and we get to care about these people. Watching it unedited with no commercials I found this season to make me root for people I didn't particularly care for when I previously watched this season.
This show truly gets under your skin and is very addictive. There is talent here and just by being what it is the show provides huge entertainment. I can watch each season over and over even though I know the outcome. There is a class and sincerity that rises this show above other reality shows out there. And to watch contestants wear their hearts on their sleeve as they pursue their dreams to be big fashion designers is a gift. I can't say enough about this show and this season in particular. This season on dvd was short on extras. There is a short profile on the winner after the season ended but I am fine with the lack of extras. I would have loved blooper reels and even more of a history on each contestant but all of this really is a part of the show anyways. So I give this dvd a A++++++ but do say realize you aren't getting any extras. If you are ok with that you will be in PROJECT RUNWAY heaven.
Project Runway Season 4, the best ever!!
2009-09-14 - This was the best season ever!! Fast shipping and the DVD looked like new! great Deal!!
