warmwinds Posted July 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Are they serious? I have, officially, dropped into the oblivion of those who are NOT their demographic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warmwinds Posted July 13, 2015 Author #2 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Ok, just did a search...this was "announced" two days ago, but I just got the e-mail two minutes ago...I KNEW I was out of the loop! (and proud of it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micmacmissy Posted July 13, 2015 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Eh, it's just product placement. Celebrity will sponsor an episode of the show and challenge the contestants (design new uniforms for our activity staff, or something like that) and in return they have basically an hour of free advertising. It won't affect anyone who actually cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warmwinds Posted July 14, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Is that the show where the skinny stick pretty black girl picks who will be a model? Have they ever SEEN who is around the T-pool, Lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's the show where clothing designers do weekly challenges in designing clothes. Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn are the hosts. Great fun to watch.

Ex-Airbalancer Posted July 14, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Is it on over the air TV channels ? I have no cable or satellite TV But I would not watch this show anyway I think it is a waste of promo money Please Celebrity stop making your cruise line a fluff cruise line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artlovr Posted July 14, 2015 #11 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I love Project Runway. I'm looking forward to seeing the episode on August 20th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted July 14, 2015 #12 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) It is on LIFETIME so if you don't have any cable you won't be watchingit. I do not think Lifetime is on any Canadian cable / satellite TV . So I guess they really should not be sending me these emails Looks like there a lifetime ca station so I was wrong My OTA reception is better than we were on cable / satellite :-) Edited July 14, 2015 by Airbalancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't affect anyone who actually cruises. They'll get more than an hour of advertising, though it's not free. They're giving the winner a cruise, so Celebrity will be mentioned every time the show airs, and this series is very popular and replays often. I am looking forward to this episode, just as I looked forward to the episode of Top Chef where the contestants were on board the Millennium to Alaska. I prefer this type of advertising campaign over the type that gives free picnic baskets to people in a park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one time the season started here when it was almost over in the US, but at least we got to see it. Haven't been able to watch it in a couple of years.

Caribbean Chris Posted July 14, 2015 #16 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I thought the Top Chef promo was fun. Why not have tie-ins to popular shows? That said, if they ever hook up with the Kardashians or Honey Boo-Boo, it's all over between Celebrity and me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadburysmom Posted July 15, 2015 #17 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I am 64 and I love Project Runway.I am "well over 29" and I love it, too. I can barely sew on a button so the clothes they make from "scratch" and in such a short amount of time is awe inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patty1955 Posted July 15, 2015 #19 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I don't watch the show but I do know of it. It looks to me like a new marketing strategy. When it was announced, it looks like a new perk or specialized cruise. To me, the announcement was a little misleading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypercafe Posted July 15, 2015 #21 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I like the show, I fail to see how it can be a negative for anyone sailing on Celebrity Sent from my SM-T320 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted July 15, 2015 #22 Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) And how is it a positive for Celebrity?...watching some designers who want to be the next ....pick a label......what does that have to do with cruising on Celebrity? It may not be negative but just wondering what it has to do with cruising? I can understand Top Chef...culinary field... Food is always be associated with Cruising. I have watched the show in the past.....maybe I am just turning cynical as I get older:rolleyes:.....I fail to see how 16 people who are fighting for the best design (yes, they fight.....it is a reality show after all)... I fail to see how it is associated with a cruise on Celebrity....but it doesn't matter what I see or don't see......it is not my call. Ms Lutoff-Perlo is the only person that matters and I guess she sees $$ signs....... Edited July 15, 2015 by Lois R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artlovr Posted July 15, 2015 #23 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Clearly Celebrity feels it's beneficial to appeal to an audience they may not be currently accessing. Seems like a creative way to reach new cruisers. Obviously the demographic for Project Runway is one Celebrity wants to reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debkaysmith Posted July 15, 2015 #24 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yes, please and thank you! I LOVE Project Runway and I LOVE Celebrity. What a great way to get two of my favorites together in one attractive package. Can't wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.T.B. Posted August 17, 2015 #25 Share Posted August 17, 2015 For those who care, the season premiere is this Thursday, August 20th: http://www.celebritycruises.com/captains-club/whats-new?event_date=2015-07-09&sequence_code=a&pageNumber= Celebrity looks to be somewhat heavily involved with the show. Not only in providing a grand prize for the winner, but Celebrity President and CEO Lisa Lutoff-Perlo will be on the show as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
