In its second season under Disney, Project Runway features 22 designers, an all-star judging panel and brand sponsors trading traditional ads for in-show integration.

It’s part of a broader surge across Disney's unscripted and reality programming, spanning hits such as ABC’s American Idol, Dancing with the Stars and Project Runway. Overall unscripted revenue saw positive year-over-year growth, bolstered by a more than 50% jump in total in-show activations and a 67% increase in custom content deals, Disney told Campaign.
