The Cut: Episode 6

the cutThe two teams have to create their own stores selling re-imagined clothes from Goodwill but the competition seems lopsided from the beginning making for an episode that is even more oddly paced than usual. Deanna and Crazy Jeff's team name their store Comme Undone while James, Liz and Princess's team calls their store the Garment Gallery. Jessica gets the flu and her team is already missing team leader Felix who is on the jet with Tommy and Shauna on the way to Sundance.  Comme Undone opens ahead of the Garment Gallery even with Crazy Jeff fighting with just about everyone.  The Garment Gallery realizes they have no decorations and opt to use paint rollers and ladders to portray an art theme. Jamie Lynn DiScala and Simon Doonan visit the stores to do a secret eval for Tommy. Out at Sundance, Felix makes a tool of himself going on about his accomplishments while Shauna demonstrates her usual smooth interviewing skills with the celebs.

At the forum of doom, Comme Undone gets in trouble for having no prices in their store and Garment Gallery gets in trouble for just about everything else. Comme Undone wins easily. Felix and James end up in the pit and Tommy ejects James for not contributing enough which seems a bit unfair since in this episode at least, Felix didn't exactly show his best side.  I think that this show could have benefited from an assistant or two to Tommy (much the way Trump has George and Caroline) because he seems to not really know much about what is going on with the teams.

I can't believe Tommy got rid of James. James was my pick to win the whole thing. He was smart, hard-working and everyone liked him! Basically he was punished for being the only person on the team that made a real contribution while the rest them should have gone home already. What was going through Tommy's mind? He tells Felix he was embarassing and selfish and then he cuts the other guy! He is sofa king stoopid? What an @%^ hole! I hate this show now.

"...because he seems to not really know much about what is going on with the teams." I agree with you, how could he know what is going on when he is always off to some party? I really don't care if these contestants have "social skills" or not - show me your designing talent! James got screwed IMO. I have been in retail shops that look like art galleries, so that idea wasn't so far off the mark. Where Felix' team screwed up is they didn't divide and conquer. Shauna's team had enough sense to let a couple people work on the store while the others did inventory. I feel that Felix was selfish and left his team in a bind and should have taken the catwalk. I would never purchase anything from Comme Undone if the prices were not marked. I have been to stores like that and it makes me feel that they will price according to my income level. At our house, we have come to refer to Jeff as the Greenwich Village Idiot.
