The totally droll and urbane Tim Gunn, star of Bravo’s new Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style, shoots his his mouth off about Top Design. “It was terrible. That whole show was terrible… I just can’t understand – how did that show get to be so terrible? ‘See you later, decorator,’ coming out of Jonathan Adler’s mouth? I love Jonathan! I never met Todd Oldham, but I have such respect for him. And he was so horrible…. It was a load of crap.” And he has no problem admitting the exec producer of that show is also the exec producer of his new show.

But wait! There’s more! Promoting his book Tim Gunn: A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style, Gunn opens up to Melanie McFarland at seattlepi about a number of things, including:

WHY HIS BIOGRAPHY MAKES NO MENTION OF PROJECT RUNWAY: The Weinstein lawyers said, “If it’s anywhere in the book, we will file an injunction and the book will not be permitted to be released.”

WHAT THE WEINSTEINS THINK ABOUT HIS NEW SHOW: The Weinstein Company went ballistic when they heard about the Tim Gunn show. Can you believe that?
