Heidi_l According to a source close to Project Runway, the Emmy-nominated reality show will split its sixth season (expected to premiere on Lifetime in November) between Los Angeles and New York to accommodate host Heidi Klum’s (pictured) schedule and home life. For season 7, the show will be back in New York, where it has been since its inception, and the upcoming fifth season, which debuts on Bravo in July, will also be set in the Big Apple. -- Additional reporting by Lynette Rice

And so the crap-inazation of PR begins...

Annnnd they continue to ruin Project Runway.

So now the top 3 designers will be showcasing their collections at the Craptastic, Wanna Be L.A. Fashion Week instead?

NYC is the capital of American fashion and Bryant Park is its Oscars. L.A. can never compare.

This is lame, lame, lame. LAME.

well, i don't watch lifetime so I don't care, and PR was past its prime already. so of course, it had its IN, but now it's so OUT.

When will they replace Tim Gunn with Richard Greico and Heidi with Alexandria Paul? I won't watch if it's on Lifetime. PERIOD.

ARE YOU SERIOUS....this is freaking ridiculous. The prize takes PLACE in New York City - how can they justify taking the show AWAY from the prize??? Lifetime blows

Shari Thu, May 1, 2008 at 02:34 PM EST

not to mention Tim, Nina and Michael are all NYC based.

As the saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

wonder if Heidi is pregnant again. maybe she wants to be close to home for her delivery. i can't see any other reason why they would move the show from where it should take place.

jenny Thu, May 1, 2008 at 05:33 PM EST

you know, i kinda feel sorry for the show.....dont they know when it switches to Lifetime, its going to lose its credibility? Maybe they're just torching a sinking ship....

So, will the designers be designing "mom jeans" for Chico's when they move to Lifetime?
