kriselda I have a _real_ problem with the way the eliminations are being handled. Since they're only doing eliminations every other week - and are getting rid of two people on the elimination weeks - the contestants on the non-elimination weeks get a big, and seriously unfair, advantage.Here's what happening (I'm going to use made up contestant names to avoid any spoilers) Week 1 "Debbie, " "Daniel" and "Davey" are the three lowest scoring contestants of the week. If this were a normal week during a normal season, one of them would be leaving, but because of the special format this season, all three get to stay, giving them all a chance to do better the next week.Week 2 Debbie, Daniel and Davey are able to make great use of their close call from the week before, do a much better job and win their face-to-face battles, so all three are get to stay. "Nancy" and "Noah," however, both dropped the ball and are both eliminated. Unlike Debbie, Daniel and Davey, neither of them gets a chance to come back the next week to try to redeem themselves and avoid elimination. They're just gone.Week 3 and 4 the cycle repeats. Whomever would have been this week 3's loser basically gets a do-over, while the two lowest scorers for week 4 don't. What I think would be much more fair would be to announce at the end of the non-elimination week who the two lowest scorers for the week are. Then, during the elimination week episode have them be one of the battling pairs. The loser of that battle goes home, as doeswhomever is the overall loser of all the other battles. For example:Week 1 Debbie and Davey have the lowest scores. In a normal season, that would be it for one of them, but because of the special format both get to compete next week. Week 2 Debbie and Davey are paired in one of the face-to-face battles and whichever one loses that battle goes home. The other battling pairs are matched up however they're doing it that episode. Out of those pairs, it's determined that Nancy was the weakest, so she also goes home.That way, at least one of the two weakest players from week one will be sent home. It's not perfect, but it would be a lot better.

jbrbsmom I LOVE watching the talent on this show. This show has evolved through the years to be MORE about the art and has started showing the positive sides of competition.In the first few seasons, there was some negative interactions and pettiness and I thought that was sort of classless. NOW, they highlight teamwork and positive interactions and it really has become MUCH BETTER of a show.The contestants are USUALLY depicted in a positive light and are so super talented it really is exciting to watch what they will create each episode. My KIDS like to watch it as well, another reason I am glad that the interactions tend to be on the positive side and highlight the ART and what can be accomplished when people work TOGETHER.Of course, there is always the human nature element and there can be some unlikable qualities about a few of the contestants and it is a competition show: again, the artistic abilities of the people tend to be displayed more than petty quarrels which really make THIS show stand above others in its class.Personally, I am tired of watching people dispute and be cruel and petty...leave that to Big Brother and Survivor. I am all about talent and art and THAT is what makes this show so great. And that is what makes the contestants so GREAT. You really LIKE them and ROOT for them and WANT them ALL to win, so the whole show gives off this amazingly POSITIVE vibe and I am SO PROUD for the producers for maintaining it as such.KEEP this show going...most creative beautifully done talented show out there! It will hook you if you are a fan of artwork or just good talented people in general.

icyharris-539-169904 Why do their creations looked 10X better than the makeup jobs of half the shows on their channel, SyFy. Ever since I started watching this show, I am more observant on modern makeup jobs. To me, Star Wars set the standard, dispensing with bad masks and obviously zippered costumes. For these contestants, considering the time and budget they have, create some convincing creatures that match or even rival those special effects. What I hate though, which is a similar beef I have with "Project Runway" and "American Idol" is that they want the artists to be diverse when you can tell some of them are more comfortable with a particular genre- and I'm sure they will be just as successful as people that are more versatile. Like some are better at kiddie movie type makeup, some for horror movies, some for lightweight fantasy fare, some for comedies, and some for shows needing realistic battle and murder victim wounds. All I can say is SyFy and other productions, you need to hire some of these people and fire your current staff!

Fourthingsandalizard I can see how this show might not appeal to everyone, and MacKenzie Westmore is admittedly very robot-like, but aside from such small issues, it's entertaining T.V. One doesn't have to be a make-up artist to enjoy it. The entertainment stems from not only seeing the end make-ups,(although they are usually awesome)but from the interaction between the artists, seeing how they rise to the challenge, seeing what exactly goes into a make-up, and what matters to the judges. I don't usually watch reality T.V., but I have looked forward every week to the next episode; the next challenge. I would recommend "Face Off" to anyone who enjoys art.
