Kelly Lawler USA Today 11/10/2021
A combination of Tyra Banks' outsized personality, the outsized demands of the fashion industry and the outsized conflict that comes from sticking young wannabe models together for weeks combined to create magic. Go to Full Review Scott Sandell Los Angeles Times 11/19/2019
America's Next Top Model is a fun concept, especially for male viewers, but it would be better if the camera, and the people behind it, loved these women more. Go to Full Review Nathan Rabin AV Club 11/08/2019

America's Next Top Model is intriguing, appealing, and grotesque, much like the fashion world itself. Go to Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel 11/20/2019
It's altogether awkward, a collection of stray parts that don't quite fit together, sort of like how models always describe the way they looked in junior high. Go to Full Review Terry Kelleher People Magazine 11/20/2019
The series has the stock reality elements: The competitors share a penthouse and annoy one another; a panel of experts drops one hopeful a week. But at least the humiliation is a little different. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
