I love it dahling. Not keen on the current series judges though, I much prefer the old ones, Nigel Barker, Janice and the two Jays.

Oh I love it, it's my TV guilty pleasure. I probably shouldn't admit it, but I've seen every episode of every series since it first started. I preferred it in the early days though.

I love Project Runway and Say Yes to the Dress too.

Britain's Next Top Model starts next week - can't wait!

11:00 am Saturday Sky Living HD. I record it. Am currently watching a girl yelling at another girl with blobs of cream on her face while her just dumped gay lover looks mortified. You couldn't make it up!

I love it but I miss Tyra and her smizing
The first few seasons were much much better though - would totally rewatch them all!

I miss Tyra too. She was so crazed and yet all her feedback was so astute. Love TyBa

Loved it. I got through so many series when I was pregnant and had a newborn.

But you know what's BETTER? Rupaul's Drag Race. It's on Netflix. Watch it Grin

Yes yes to rupaul's drag race I love his little motivational speeches.

I also love the old next top model and find Nigel barker very attractive Hmm

Don't think much of the current judges.
Love all the bitchiness in the house, which always looks a grubby mess.

Is it on again? Ooh, I loved Miss J- and sort of fancied Mr J (is that odd?).

I used to quite enjoy this, but it's not half as good as RuPaul's Drag Race.

I love it too. Hadn't watched it for years until I caught an episode last week. Will have to start sky plussing it!

Which one are you watching! I'm in the USA, just finished the Rita Ora season with Law Roach and Ashley Graham, loved it.

GrumpySausage · 13/03/2017 02:46

Love it. Have watched most series a few times.

Loved the Nigel era and miss jay. Think it's missing Tyra and I can't warm to Rita Ora.

My favourite week is always makeover week. It's very predictable (one crying, one totally being transformed etc) but I live for that week.

My guilty pleasure when dh is away is to binge watch an old series.

I love it, not as good as previous years but still enjoy my fix. What happened to the male contestants like they have done in previous series though?

I used to love it, but stopped when they fired sleazy Nigel and the two jays. Has Tyra gone now too??

Oh God, I love it. I've been watching since I was doing my Highers and I'm 31 now. Though I do miss Noted Fashion Photographer Nigel Barker.

I always loved the bits in the later seasons where Tyra would make the contestants star in her shite music videos, smizing and booty tooching throughout, it was so humiliating Grin

I love ANTM. The middle seasons were the best ones (big budget but before the admittingly entertaining humiliating music videos AgentCooper mentioned).

The new season is better than I thought it would be (have watched it all online). Too many video challenges for me and not enough runway though. and my favourite finally won! After 23 cycles!!

How can I watch this (either current or old episodes) without having Sky Living HD? Is it on Netflix or anything? I watched two series years ago while subletting a friends' house with a package that included whatever channel it aired on then and thought it was fascinating. What I loved was how a bunch of apparently equally gorgeous women either appeared really photogenic and interesting in front of the camera or turned into an awkward lump who couldn't pose or walk or whatever.
