| AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL |
What is this program? modeling competition
When and where? Sundays, 9 p.m., on CW
Who should watch this program? aspiring models, dirty old men
So how is it? How many top models does America need? Apparently our dependence is more than on foreign oil, as the CW Network continues to drill for fashion plates in small towns, inner cities, and distant countries. The chosen ones in America's Next Top Model, "Cycle 8," once again live together in a multimillion-dollar L.A. mansion, where they compete in a series of photo shoots and modeling challenges, such as a thrift-store treasure hunt or a catwalk-off. And all the while they confess to the camera their innermost secrets and fears. Sounds hot, until you realize most of these girls are self-absorbed, feckless, and vindictive. Hostess with the mostess Tyra Banks comes across as both mentor and friend, but she's constantly outdone by her perennial sidekicks: swoon-inducing photographer Nigel Barker; sensible-for-a-woman-of-her-age Twiggy; outrageously gender-confused Miss J; and constantly exasperated photography director Jay Manuel, who, frankly, might feel more comfortable on Flip That House. My bet on this year's winner: Brittany. Congratulations! You're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model!
