Tim Gunn is a Good Sport

Filed under: TV News > Reality Television > Tim Gunn

timgunnandheidi.jpg

The Weinsteins and NBC/Bravo have been battling it out in a New York court this month.

Bravo's not going to let the Weinsteins take Project Runway to Lifetime without a fight.

Meow!

Some interesting bits of information were disclosed.

Amongst the deets:

Harvey Weinstein revealed in court that Tim Gunn wasn't paid a dime for the first season of Project Runway.

For the second season, Gunn was paid a measly $2,500 per episode.

We hope Tim Gunn is getting paid handsomely now. He deserves it!

We can't imagine Runway without Tim Gunn!

Weinstein testified that he "disliked Bravo management." More than one source used the H word in describing the relationship: "They hate each other."

We wonder how long Project Runway will be drama free at Lifetime.

We say one episode!

    I love love love him!
    He is the nicest guy there.
    I can't believe they would pay an ex model, but won't pay a guy who really KNOWS fashion and cares (and also a nice human being).

    TG totally "made it work." He was completely unknown when the show started, went about it totally diva free, then racked up the cash once he proved himself. He's probably more important to that show than Heidi, Nina or Michael Kors. The "judging" doesn't really show on air, but Tim's officiating and interacting with the contestents is a huge part of the show.

    Tim Gunn doesn't do anything except be awkward.
    When he tried to have his own show, he just creeped me the fuck out.

  18. LvGun says – reply to this

    The only reason I even watch this show is because of Tim Gunn. He totally deserves to get paid the same as Heidi. I hope Lifetime realizes that he is a positive asset to the show.

    Tim Gunn is a corporate head at Liz Claiborne, he gets paid an asston over there so why would he give a shit about getting paid for some show he just does for fun.

  21. MmHmm says – reply to this

    Not paying Tim Gunn what he deserved must have been an oversight on Weinstein's part. It's so weird, because I have never heard of Jews doing something like that before. Usually they're so generous.

  22. MmHmm says – reply to this
    22

    Re: bette

    Are the Weinstein's doing it for "fun" also? Oh, that's right, Jews never do anything for "fun". They do everything to get money away from other people.

    OH, THAT TV WOULD BE GOOD AGAIN WITHOUT THIS CRAZY PROJECT RUNWAY WITH OR WITHOUT TIM WHATEVER.

    Even the brillant & charming Tim Gunn knows that
    BUSH SUCKS!
    IMPEACH!
    IMPEACH!
    IMPEACH!
    Send Bush to Iraq to fight his friggin' stupid ass war
    and send our soldiers home to watch the brilliant Project Runway!
    Tim Gun is a god. Bow to him. Weinstein is a loud brutish slob.
    That is all.

    I ADORE Tim Gunn…..almost as much as you, Perez. His comments to the designers were CLASSIC! A sampling: when he told SweetPea her dress was looking a little "coffee filter, maxi pad" and when he told another her sewing skills were "happy hands at home, granny's sewing circle." love him

    Everyone on that show is expendable with the exception of Tim Gunn. He is fashion savvy, kind and fair. I hope he gets what he deserves.

  33. 33

    Tim is the best part of the show! Heidi is tolerable (barely). That Nina Garcia chick is a waste of time.

  34. Karen says – reply to this

    Tim Gunn is one of the best parts of the show! He should be getting way more than $2,500 an episode, what a rip…

    i lovee project runway. ive watched every season and tvo when it comes on. i could not imagine PR without tim gun. But i also dont think that it should move to lifetime, the show will more then likely suck.

  36. gunn says – reply to this

    that makes me sad. when Tim Gunn leaves Bravo TV… guess what Bravo I will never watch your channel again…..I love Tim Gunn. and I really don't like anybody.

  37. 37

    Project Runway is nothing without Tim Gunn and he certainly deserves way more then they are paying him. He truly knows his stuff when it comes to fashion and not to mention I certainly learn some colorful words when he speaks.

    well tim gunn also works for liz claiborne so it isnt like he is going without a paycheck

    I'm shocked. Mr. Gunn is the best part of the show! "Make it work!" Words to live by…
    Honestly, the show would be trash without Tim.

    Bravo needs to do all they can to keep this show and keep it intact. It's the only thing I care to watch. And of course Tim is such the perfect daddy for the show. I love that he can say, "Just edit your vision" and it makes sense. Even to me!

    no monney? maybe he did it just to get closer to heidi? JK we all know he's not into that sort of thing!! Maybe Michael Kors though?

    HOW DARE THEY not pay Tim Gunn!
    He has always been my favorite person
    on Runway, including Heidi.
    He is charming, funny, smart, interesting,
    HOW DARE THEY!
    And the paltry $2,500 an episode is a joke.
    He has more class and talent than most
    of Hollywood!
    He created a "catch phrase" that will live forever.
    I would like to see Project Runway try to
    "MAKE IT WORK' without Tim Gunn!!

    Project Runway would be nothing without Tim Gunn. I don't think going to another channel is going to help at all, in fact it will be the end of the show. The Weinsteins are greedy pigs. I still can't imagine why Georgina Chapman who is beautiful and successful in her own right married Harvey Weinstein who is disugusting and low class.
