Ezah you in or you auf!

Achtung! Ach du lieber gott! Project Runway is jumping networks! Verum???

No one said the fashion world was boring. In a major TV shakeup, Project Runway will say auf Wiedersehen to Bravo and jump to cable rival Lifetime this fall, it was announced Monday. Bravo and NBC Universal, which owns Bravo, were not amused. They declared war on former Miramax honchos Harvey and Bob Weinstein, whose new venture sold the series to Bravo in 2003, and filed a breach-of-contract lawsuit against the brothers' namesake company. (View the lawsuit.) In a statement, NBC Universal said it had dibs on future seasons of Project Runway, and charged the Weinstein Co. of sealing a deal with Lifetime before Bravo had the chance to match the offer. "NBC Universal regrettably had no alternative but to bring legal action to enforce its rights to this program," it said in a statement....Lifetime said its math wasn't in error, indicating a fifth Runway season will play out on Bravo between now and November. Heidi Klum will continue as host on the show's Lifetime version; Tim Gunn will continue as mentor to the designers. Klum and Gunn were both quoted in the release—Klum reminding that "fashion is about change," and Gunn dropping his catchphrase, à la "Lifetime and I will definitely 'make it work' together." Deals with judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia haven't been closed yet, a Lifetime spokesman said. [e!]

I think Lifetime's an odd choice. I mean, of course Project Runway has a mostly female appeal... but Lifetime is soooooo not cutting edge. Bravo makes Lifetime look like Public Access. But, vere they lead I vill follow! Jetzt!

In other Runway news... Didja hear they won a Peabody? A PEABODY? Really? Bi-zarrrrre.
