Tim, Heidi and the others from “Project Runway” may have a new network come fall. Lifetime Television made a deal with the shows creators The Weinstein Company to purchase the show for their network from Bravo/NBC. NBC, as one can imagine, is fighting this with a lawsuit. “Project Runway” is basically the cornerstone of Bravo’s reality based television shows, it was among the first and inspired many of the various reality shows the network has done since (“Top Chef,” “Top Cut,” “Make Me A Supermodel,” etc. . . .). The next season of “Project Runway” will begin shooting in June and air . . . . somewhere . . . . this fall. Tim and Heidi are expected to make the jump to Lifetime. No word yet on Michael Kors or Nina Garcia.
