hi everyone!
Just want to let you all know about a very cool episode of "Renovation Nation" that will air this Friday night (9pm EST) on the Planet Green network. Usually a half-hour long - the show has been expanded to an hour for this very special episode, which is all about Saturn's "Hands on Home" green homes build in Detroit with Habitat for Humanity.
You will also get to witness my TV debut :) and see some of the great folks I work with here at Saturn, as well as Carl Galeana, who owns S…

hi to all -
A few of us here at Saturn have recently jumped in with both feet into Twitter, and are having a lot of fun. The last few days in particular have had many Saturn-related conversations out there, and we've had a chance to connect with some really cool people. We'd like to talk to you as well! Feel free to post your Twitter handle, and also be sure to follow myself (

This week has been a very exciting week for Saturn and Ghost Whisperer fans! Saturn's presence within the Ghost Whisperer series will be coming to a culmination tonight (May 1), when the final webisode and game launch is followed by the on-air crossover integration, where the on-air storyline and web series intersect.
The Saturn OUTLOOK has received exposure in nearly every episode of the show and the Saturn VUE is an integral part of the web series and online game.
Over the past two weeks, CB…

For the last three seasons of “Ghost Whisperer”, a red Saturn OUTLOOK has been prominently featured as the main character Melinda Gordon’s (played by Jennifer Love Hewitt) vehicle. You may also remember that last season, Saturn and CBS partnered to develop an eight episode “webisode” series titled “The Other Side II”, where the Astra was one of the main characters.
This season, “The Other Side III” is back, and this time, our VUE hybrid is the featured vehicle. “Ghost Whisperer” is a proven hit…

Saturn partnered with the Discovery Channel to produce a couple of two-minute videos about our "Hands on Home" partnership. Saturn, along with our retailers, the Philly Soul Foundation, and Habitat for Humanity recently built five eco-conscious homes in Detroit, and Discovery's cameras were there to catch the action.
Shot during the July 2008 kickoff and again during the December 2008 house dedication, these videos feature Saturn's event marketing manager,…

The finale was taped last month and it was a full-on "Project Runway Weekend" from start to finish! The trip to NYC was sandwiched in between a production shoot in Colorado and a vacation to China, so I was not the most well-rested. However, I enjoyed myself to the fullest, and feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
I arrived in NYC on Thursday and met up with Chris Webb (our Saturn designer from the "Fashion That Drives You" challenge) and Team Blogging Project Runway that night for drinks.…

Here we go - part one of the finale and the home visits. Going into tonight's episode, we knew we had one more elimination round to get to the final three. I expected it to be similar to last season's "bakeoff", but instead - they went with the wedding dress challenge. Not a repeat of last season, but not very ground-breaking either.
I loved getting a peek into the lives of the designers - such as Korto playing the drums, Leanne taking Tim out on a tandem bike ride (with Tim in a suit, no less)…

Hi everyone! I'm back from a great vacation in Asia and am still jet-lagged, so it's another short and sweet recap. I hope you enjoyed Lori and Susan's blog from last week. (Thanks, girls!)
The season has really flown by and this is a huge challenge for the designers - they really need to make a statement to prove they're ready for Bryant Park.
I loved the little moment with Jerell, his Joe and Suede fruit, and the Tim Gunn bobblehead. Clearly, he and Korto and Leanne are bonding, and Kenley is…

Hi everyone! As mentioned last week, Lisa is off vacationing in Asia and we (Susan and Lori) are sub-blogging ... is that a word? Anyway, we probably can't match Lisa's colorful weekly review, but we're giving it a shot....
We were sucked into the episode early when Heidi came to the runway and asked the contestants to "Rethink" their models. The drama increased when Leanne stirred the pot by letting her tenured model Caroline go - we expected that to be the ongoing drama of the night. However,…

Hi everyone! This week's blog is going to be straight, simple, and to the point. Namely because I'm in between two weeks of business trips (which included the fabulous finale taping for PR5 in NYC) and a much-needed 2 week vacay in China (I leave today!)
I would love to provide some behind-the-scenes tidbits from the taping at Fashion Week, but that will just have to wait until my final blog. (Sorry about that, but trust me, it's better not to know!)
But back to this week's ch
