Which is harder — handling a sword on a high wire, or driving in LA traffic? This week on America's Next Top Model, the girls attempted both. Call me a dork, but I sort of loved the martial arts challenge.

I've got to agree with Bella: it took surprise visits from Lil Mama, the Jabbawockeez, and Cirque du Soleil to do it, but this week's America's Next Top Model brought back some much-needed pizzazz to Cycle 13 — even if the models themselves were quasi-lackluster. (Come on, Kara! Bring the fierceness!) There was some drama with Ashley, the obligatory offbeat comments from Nicole, and by the end of the hour, I was fully rooting for small-town girl Laura, who's quickly proving to be a top competitor.

This week's America's Next Top Model wasn't much more entertaining than last week's snoozefest (Bella seems to agree, awarding it just three short-legged "Milos"). But it was a bit better, mostly because we got a little more screen time with Tyra, there was a model who appeared to be faking orgasms during the photo shoot, and we had Laura wearing her grandma's clothing creations with pride ("Majah," Miss J said of the look). All in all, not bad, but I've come to expect more from you, ANTM.

Top Model — either you're amazingly campy and over-the-top or . . .

After last week's premiere, cycle 13 continued on as the models learned a thing or two about rejection and of course, learned to smile with their eyes — or "smize," as it's now called. This week's episode had the usual doses of challenges and cat fights, but how closely were you paying attention? Test your knowledge, and then head over to Bella for her beauty quiz.

Did you watch last night's premiere of America's Next Top Model? The CW revealed the final 14 girls a few weeks ago, so we already knew who was going to make the cut, but there was still plenty of satisfying drama and overall craziness. (What was with Tyra's French accent?

And thus concludes another cycle of America's Next Top Model. Now that we know how it ends, what did you think of the cycle overall? I thought it was pretty lackluster, and while the girls were beautiful, their personalities fell more along the lines of "people it might be fun to have a drink with" instead of "people I like to watch on my TV."

This week on America's Next Top Model, Tyra turned her flock of four into her little birdies. Yes, this week Tyra morphed into a photographer and even friend to the contestants remaining in Brazil. More Tyra always results in a less boring show, so that's good.

Don't we seem to be learning a lot more about the harsh realities of the modeling world during this cycle of America's Next Top Model? Normally it's all "Smile with your eyes!" and "Be ugly but pretty!"

On this week's episode of America's Next Top Model, the girls took off for South America and were quickly immersed in all things Brazilian (and, um, a little culturally insensitive). Mostly, though, it was yet another yawn-inducing episode in this cycle, and I really think ANTM needs to step it up. The big, exciting reveal in the house is a hot tub?
