When Lifetime won the next season of Project, NBC went to court trying to stop the move saying they had the first rights to refuse the show. Well NBC won an injunction for the time being and Project Runway is not going to Lifetime next season as expected according to The Hollywood Reporter. 
"NBC Universal is pleased that the court granted our motion for a preliminary injunction against the Weinstein Co.," NBC Uni said in a statement. "The overwhelming evidence demonstrated that the Weinstein Co. violated NBC Universal's right of first refusal to future cycles of 'Project Runway.' After hearing all of the evidence, the court issued an order prohibiting the Weinstein Co. from taking the show or any spinoff to Lifetime."

Lifetime said in a statement: "We are disappointed with the court's decision to grant the preliminary injunction against the Weinstein Co. It's unfortunate that the people hurt most by this ongoing dispute are the loyal fans of 'Project Runway.' In the meantime, Lifetime will pursue all measures to uphold its valid and binding agreement reached with the Weinstein Co. for Season 6 of 'Project Runway.' "

I am bummed that it is not going to Lifetime next season because I was excited to see what they were going to do with the show. Especially after this season.
