It was a reality competition show.

They would bring on a bunch of very young, old teenagers and young women.

Some girls were still, you know, like 18, 19, and then 23, 24.

They would get these girls, they put them in a house together, and they would have to do these modeling competitions every week.

You know, the show created like a whole lexicon for us that we didn't have before.

We know the word smize, which is the dumbest word.

That's a verb.

Meaning.

Smiling with your eyes.

But it was such a strange fever dream of a show.

It is exactly like a lot of reality competitions still.

But it was so specific and weird and saliently helmed by a lunatic.

Like, Tyra was cuckoo bananas, and that's why we loved her.

She was amazing TV.

She was always trying to trick the girls.

Like, it's not just...

that she was doing it.

I guess that's what's so remarkable about the product and the documentary.

She was just doing it.

Yeah, Shandi has one of the most, I think she has maybe the most devastating story in the documentary.
