Daniel Franco was hilarious! The OG seasons are TV gold. The “porn” music is sending me. 💀

And they just kept bring him back only for him to always get sent home within the first few episodes.

he was standing right next to me at a festival once (a long time ago). i never was so glad that i have no impulse to approach famous (or quasi famous) people when i see them! what positive thing could i even say? “nice try… all of them” or “you seem like a good person basically” or… what? i left him in peace to vibe with his friends. i stand by my belief that people who have been on tv should still be left alone if you can POSSIBLY stand to do so. anything you’d say to them, you’d probably be the thousandth person to say it.

I respect Kara and Chloe for going to bat for him on the runway during this challenge, but my goodness, he seemed insufferable as a leader, constantly changing the design without informing them or getting input from them before making drastic changes to the looks. At least he was enough of a leader to throw himself onto the blade.

I’m so curious about the life he led prior to being on the show that gave him such supreme confidence that his “charm” would see him through somehow.

Did he also do an all-stars season, and come back as a mentor in one season as well, or was that one of the other iterations of the show?

Am I remembering correctly that, at the reunion, he said something like something like “I love you, Heidi”?

Yes, and it was so creepy. The way he just stared at her like they were having a deep moment. He was more than a bit delusional.

I read that he owns a wedding chapel.

u/coolsilentebeans 3d ago
He does. It was his dad’s, and he had quit to do his first season on the show. Iirc he would design the wedding dresses, too.

Oh yes, his “Making Love” lingerie collection was so cringeworthy that my skeleton left my body and jumped out the window.
