TV Tonight: Make Me a Supermodel

BuzzSugar — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 07:30:00 -0800

I'm not sure if I would have started watching Bravo's Make Me a Supermodel had the writers' strike not been in full swing when it started, but the show has become one of my favorite guilty pleasures. In some ways, the show proves how silly America's Next Top Model can be; Supermodel is way harsher than anything Tyra can bring.

I blame the ridiculous challenges for sucking me in so fast. They started with having the guys and girls get cozy together on a park bench and only got steamier from there. Thongs on the runway? Lingerie-clad boudoir photographs? Completely nude posing? Check, check, and check.

Where do you go from there? Well, if tonight's episode is any indication, apparently you go into a water tank with a ginormous yellow boa constrictor. Why do those things even go together? But hey, not complaining - the crazier the assignments are, the better this show gets.

Have any of you been watching? Have you picked your favorites? To watch a preview for the snake challenge (warning: you may be able to figure out who gets kicked off at the start of the episode), just read more.

Are You Watching Make Me a Supermodel?

While America's Next Top Model takes a break, Bravo is trying its own hand at a modeling competition. Hosted by Niki Taylor and Tyson Beckford, Make Me a Supermodel - which had its official premiere episode last night - is Bravo's first stab at doing a show where audience votes determine the winner. Of course, for that to work, the show needs an audience, so tell me: Are you watching?
