Right now, as February 2009, I feel like America's Next Top Model is running out of ideas. I'm getting sick of fake Tyra Banks and mediocre elimination kicking off some good contestant. Usually, you don't have this on Canada's Next Top Model. I feel like the real modeling part of the show is way more serious. The judges are actually genuinely critical, and professional. I prefer much more Jay Manuel (He's so cute) because it seems like he cares more about the girls. If I stop comparing it to ANTM, CNTM brings a new fresh face of reality T.V. Yes there ARE cat fights, but the entertainment is not all about it. The photo shoots are so cool, the photographers are much more featured and the panel session shows much more natural talents! Way to go CNTM!

Canada's Next Top Model is an incredible useless show with zero entertainment value at all. At least America's Next Top Model has Tyra Banks who is a little bit interesting. The hosts on Canada's version of the show are just uninteresting and awful. The worst is "Next Top Model" Princess Extraordinaire Jay Manuel who is the most annoying idiot I've ever seen on TV. How does such an ugly, full of himself MAN get to be an "expert" on beauty? He is pointless and I want him off my TV. I watched two seasons to give this show enough of a chance and more but they always bump off the only models who have any real talent or potential and go with some REALLY questionable calls including the winners over all each year. Plus on top of that the show and the people on it don't have enough power in the industry to actually help the contestants make anything of their award anyway. What's the last time you saw them in a magazine, on the cover or even in an advertisement? Can you even remember more than two or three names? This show is pointless and needs to be put out of its misery.

This show isn't as bad as everyone thinks. I admit that Andrea should've been eliminated and that there were prettier girls that had more potential. I thought Heather, Ylenia, or Sisi had a better chance.No one like this show because the girls are 'ugly'. Canadians are just like Americans. They are as good as anybody. The area Canadians are not as great at are commercials. Besides, if we're not cut out for modeling and all the other stuff, then why is there Avril Lavigne and Shania Twain out there? And you can't tell the difference between Americans and Canadians. You point them out on the street and say 'she's American, she's American, Oh! Look!-Canadian!'The reason why I gave this show a 9 is because I don't think Tricia Helfer is a good host. Are there any other top Canadian models that are better than Tricia. Please- anyone but Tricia! She doesn't have a sense of humor like Tyra Banks. She's too serious. And, plus, no one has even heard of her.My final verdict is, Canadians are just as good as Americans. The only problem with the show is the host and the models doing commercials. Get rid of Tricia and don't make them do commercial and we are okay.

I know this is Canada's first attempt at top model, but you would think after 6 seasons of ANTM they would have taken some notes. The first mistake they made was making Tricia Helfer the host. Yeah, she is gorgeous, but i had never even heard of her, when you think Canadian supermodel, you automatically think of Linda Evangelista. I heard she wasn't able to do it, so Tricia it is.First off, the girls are just SO ordinary looking. I've seen much more prettier girls at the mall and at school. They also seem so disinterested in modeling, except for maybe one or two, the rest of them seem so unsure. The majority of them had no clue how to walk on a runway, or even take a decent photo.The probably only exciting thing about the show is that Jay Manuel is in it, (photo shoot director from ANTM). He is Canadian, and you can tell by his facial expressions in the Canadian version, he must have been thinking "These girls really suck". I know they need a lot of practise and training, but the girls they picked are pretty awful. I would say the best picture of the bunch would be equivalent to the worst photo in the American version.Other than that, the background music will put you to sleep, the house is nice, but they could have added some colours to it instead of just making the entire decorations made out of wood. And Tricia? My, my, she needs A LOT of work, she has to be the most dullest, boring-est host i'v e ever seen. Don't bother watching it!
