'Project Runway' lawsuit settled; season 6 to air this summer on Lifetime

After being orphaned for almost a year due to legal deadlock, the sixth
season of Project Runway has finally found a home: on Lifetime, where it will
air this summer. "NBC Universal, The Weinstein Company and Lifetime have
resolved their disputes," read a statement released today by NBC Universal,
which owns Bravo, Runway's home for five seasons. "The Weinstein Company will
pay NBCU for the right to move Project Runway to Lifetime. All of the parties
are pleased with the outcome." (When The Weinstein Co. announced last April
that Runway would be moving to Lifetime, NBC Universal sued for breach of
contract. Eventually, The Weinstein Co. countersued NBC Universal for
allegedly failing to properly promote season 5, and Lifetime then sued both
parties.)
Also in a statement, Lifetime Networks President and CEO Andrea Wong said: "I
couldn’t be more excited that Lifetime will bring its viewers an amazing,
all-new season of Project Runway this summer. As the highest-rated cable
network for women, Lifetime is the perfect home for this outstanding program
as well as its companion series, Models of the Runway. All of us at Lifetime
are thrilled to move forward with Heidi, Tim, Nina, Michael, The Weinstein
Company and the entire Project Runway team."
As for Harvey Weinstein, the Bravo statement quoted him as saying, "'I want
to personally congratulate [President and Chief Executive Officer of NBC
Universal] Jeff Zucker and NBCU on their success in the litigation and thank
Jeff for resolving this in a professional manner. We look forward to working
together on our ongoing projects.'" And in a statement of his own, Weinstein
looked forward to not only the next five seasons of Runway (on Lifetime), but
also spin-off shows Models of the Runway and Project Pygmalion. "With these
upcoming shows and the success of our new series The No. 1 Ladies Detective
Agency on HBO, we are very excited about the continued growth of The
Weinstein Co’s television division," Weinstein said. "We are also looking
forward to working with NBC Universal on the upcoming theatrical release of
Inglourious Basterds and the continued development of other projects
together."
