What to Watch on Thursday: Nicole Kidman on "Project Runway"

Into the Pride (8pm, Animal Planet) - Ten weeks into his stay with the pride of "problem lions" at Namibia's Erindi Private Game Reserve, Dave Salmoni is troubled by his lack of progress with Cleo (left), the queen of the pride, who only wants Dave to disappear. If you know what I mean.

Real Housewives of Atlanta (9pm, Bravo) - First we get the "director's cut" of last week's "Unbeweavable" episode in which Sheree tried to "shift" Kim's wig. Not sure exactly what that means. Extra fight footage? Then in a new episode at 10pm, Sheree attends a bodybuilding event and Kim has some nanny drama when she finds out her kids have been left unattended. All of which begs the question: Why does a woman without a job need a nanny? 

Project Runway: All-Star Challenge (8pm, Lifetime) - Before the official start of the new season (which begins at 10pm), eight designers from previous seasons compete for a $100,000 prize. Nicole Kidman makes a cameo appearance, setting up a challenge for the eight contestants. In the 10pm Project Runway season six premiere, 16 fresh hopefuls are introduced and begin their competition. Series regulars Heidi Klum, Tim Gunn, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia return. The show, which previously aired on Bravo and was based in New York City, is now based in Los Angeles.
