My favorite episode of 'ANTM' has to be the go-sees because the show becomes the knock-off 'The Amazing Race' for a few minutes. The same rules apply to having good taxi drivers and never getting out of the taxi to run to your destination.

PS. Dear Tyra, stop giving Alexandra up-nose shots.

The girls show up at a Sheraton hotel, which is nearby Universal Studios Hollywood. At least last season they had a somewhat good looking hotel for the short models. I dunno announcing the Sheraton just doesn't sound that good.


Also, I'm not that sure how I feel about all the make-overs. There wasn't any really intense weave work, or huge dye jobs. Hell, we even focused on armpit hair. There was no bleach blond girl. I guess there was no budget for peroxide.


But then I realized the big thing: I don't recall seeing any advertisements. I looked and managed to find one advertisement this year, but it was a rehash of all the girls (i assume) fadeout photo using the same exact poses. I mean remember this one:

They could afford crinkly paper. Oh, if you're wondering, last season's was some form of bathing suits.


I understand that Tyra is ending her talk show, maybe she can finally put money back into her modeling show. I don't even care about credibility, lets try to move this show to HD.


Oh and PS: I want my end fadeout back. If this Youtube user can do it, they could with a cheap budget:
