America's Next Top Model

so bad yet so good

The judges seem to have terrible taste & definitely have unbearable egos, and a chip on their shoulder - real kiss up, kick down attitude. The contestants are rewarded for emulating/supporting this & it’s pretty reminiscent of Memoirs of a Geisha & hen house pecking orders in a cramped factory farm where they have to debeak them to keep them from mauling each other. Editing & behind the scenes manipulation or coaching likely stoke drama needlessly? But modeling is an interesting art.
