Lifetime (television for "Women") announced today that it has poached hit reality competition show (and Peabody award winner) Project Runway away from Bravo, where it has been the flagship series. The Weinstein Company, which co-produces the design show, said that it has entered a five-year deal with Lifetime. NBC Universal, which owns Bravo, has apparently started legal proceedings trying to block the move. "We believe that this lawsuit is without merit. While good for the market for lawyers, it is always unfortunate when parties try to win in court what they have lost in the marketplace," said legal counsel for the Weinstein Co. Meow! Should the move stick, look for many gay men, too lazy to change the channel, to develop strange relationships with Tracey Gold movies of the week. [EW]
