he seems like a sweet funny guy and for this guy to still remain like that after being in the fashion industry for a long time, I think is a plus plus!! ;D

1:06:00 that is the reason why the contestants shouldn't be to fazed with Tim's comments critiquing the clothes on a headless mannequin.

Unfortunately the audio is horrible on this. She's so loud and it's like he's not even mic'd.

[Abiola Onabule]

love Tim Gunn. He seems like a really sweet, honest person!

Tim Gunn likes the George Bush look. Yawn.........

[ZarahLean]

The harm Tim Gunn does is many fold: 1) he enforces the negative sterotype that gay men sit around dishing women's appearances 2) he even supports forcing uniforms on school kids which helps the culture of violence against those who are different, crushing individuality. 3) he is very old and outdated in his ideas of rigid gender roles in clothes. I could go on..he makes money, don't ask me to support him. His 15 minutes are over, now he sells Expedia

a typo "life affirming"

Quality, taste and style huh? He looks like a 1959 funeral director or a nun in male drag and can not dictate what women should wear. When he stated that he had not had sex in over 30 years, I believed him! I think we should look at the real cutting edge and not mentally ill self promoters seeking a stage.
