from Marc Berman at mediaweek

An impressive performance although one wonders where these viewers were
for all the previous episodes of the season.

Someone showed him the money.

Reality competition reruns (really, reruns of reality competition
reruns) virtually never work out.

David...
They weren't really reruns but a condensed version of the British
"Model"

evwill...
Sorry, I believed Berman's info without outside verification. My
mistake, won't do it again.

Yep. Berman exposes once again that he doesn't even do the basic amount of
'research' for his job.

The Top Model show wasn't too bad except that none of the models spoke
English. ;-)
There was also a glaring amount of 'fuzzing' going on that was quite
distracting.
It was interesting to see a very different 'style' of woman on that version
of the show. They were clearly casting some people with almost no potential
to be models (just like the US version), but at least most of them stuck out
as 'unique looking'. 'Unique looking' is much more likely to get you a job
in modeling than simply 'pretty' which is a dime a dozen. They also had the
good sense to have a *tall* winner, which doesn't happen most of the time
with the US version.


William George Ferguson...
It worked out really well for One Tree Hill (both OTH and Veronica Mars
were helped in the ratings this week by, well, not airing). Also, as

Obveeus...
Good point. With the holiday viewer drop and with OTH losing its lead-in,
having time off is the best thing for these shows.

Come January, with Beauty and the Geek be a better match for OTH?

pointed out, this isn't really an ANTM repeat, it's a clip show of BNTM
(the British version).
