TV Tonight: Make Me a Supermodel

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.

    I actually really like this show. Some of the formalities seem silly at times and the challenges can be crazy but they push the contestants and that's pretty awesome.

    I am a huge ANTM fan but make me a Supermodel is better. I didn't think I would get hooked but I did. My favs are Ben, Shannon, and Holly. I like Perry but I am starting to not like his attitude.

    While you can't deny how smokin Perry is, his attitude is getting a bit old. I love Ben too, he seems so humble and is really improving. For the girls, Shannon is my favorite.

    Total guilty pleasure of mine too. But I love Tyson and Nikki. I have the hardest time stomaching Tyra on ANTM, she is just so dramatic and over the top.

    I think it sounds a bit too copycat to ANTM. I'm bored of ANTM as it is.

    My fave of the girls is beautiful, beautiful Holly. And my fave of the guys is Perry. He's such a charismatic jerk.

    It's actually very different from ANTM.

    What keeps me hooked is the romance between Ronnie and Ben! WTF is going on there? Wait till Ben's wife finds out her husband may be gay!

    hotstuff, I've been thinking about that too! Isn't the show basically live? I mean, hasn't Ben's wife been able to see some of this by now?

    My favorites are Ben, Holly, and Perry. Bens closeness to Ronnie is just a normal reaction to a new situation. Bens pretty (no pun intended) closeted where he lives, and he might be gay he might not but he is allowing his mind to open up to new people and situations and i am proud of him. Frankly i think his mousy wife doesnt have much of a hold on him anyway, and she is weak in the self esteem area. Hollys boyfriend/fiancee? HOT

    I really love this show. While Tyra's show seems to attract contestants who are more in it for the reality-show factor, the contestants on "Supermodel" seem to have actual ability to make it as models. Plus they have guys on board too Love

    I love the chemistry between Ronnie and Ben too! My favorite overall contestants are Casey, Ronnie, Shannon and Stephanie.

    I hope Shannon wins it; she definitely has the model look. Perry annoys me- is anyone else bothered by his nose?It looks so weird to me.

    I have always watched ANTM and am a huge fan, but I am really starting to prefer Supermodel. The first episode of the new season was the perfect example of why ANTM is way too cheesy- the whole ex-contestant cheerleaders and Tyra as the homecoming queen. So lame. I also think Supermodel has MUCH better potential models. They seem to know more about modeling and are much better looking in my opinion. Plus I like that there are guys in the show too! =)

    total guilty pleasure! while i think holly is beautiful, i just can't stand her voice. and i would love it if ben and ronnie got together. they seem so close and their chemistry is undeniable. i'm sure ben's wife must be thinking "what the...???!" as she watches the show.

    I too only started watching this cause there was a thursday night opening in my tv schedule due to the strike, but I became instantly addicted when they put Ben up on that platform in Times Square in hot pink pants. When they did the Heatherette Neo Glam rock runway show I was became a complete fan girl. The boys looked the sex with all that glitter make up and gold lame'. I liked Perry at the start, but now he's gone stale. Now I am all about the lovefest that is Ronnie and Ben. Hot. Also Holly is awesome looking, if a little stiff sometimes.

    I heart Ben! I so hope he and Ronnie hook up! Is that awful or what?

    This show is definitely a guilty pleasure. I don't watch every episode intently, but I do pay attention...especially during the half-naked parts.

    I'm rooting for Holly. I can't believe Shannon went home. I thought she was the strongest and with the most potential.
