America's Next Top Model
America's Next Top Model, often abbreviated as ANTM or TopModel, is a reality show series in which a number of women compete for the title of America's Next Top Model and a chance to start their career in the modeling industry. It was created by talk-show host and model Tyra Banks, who also serves as the host, head judge, and executive producer. She co-produces the show with Ken Mok and Anthony Dominici. Banks also performs the opening theme, which isproduced by Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins.
The first "cycle" premiered on May 20, 2003 on UPN and became one of the network's highest-rated shows. The series moved to UPN's succeeding network, The CW, for the seventh cycle, and is currently the network's highest rated series.[2] Advertisers pay $61,315 per 30-second slot during the 2011–12 television season, the highest of any series on The CW.[3] OnOctober 16, 2012, The CW renewed the show for a 20th season, which will premiere in summer 2013 and will feature female and male contestants for the first time, so it will be called America's Next Top Model: Guys & Girls.

Format
Each season of America's Next Top Model has from 9–13 episodes and starts with 10–14 contestants. Each episode, one contestant is eliminated, though in rare cases adouble elimination or no elimination was given by consensus of the judging panel. Makeovers are administered to contestants early in the season (usually after the first or second elimination in the finals,) and a trip to an international destination is scheduled at about two-thirds of the way through the season (usually with five or six contestants remaining).

Judges
The current judging panelconsists of Banks, fashion PR maven Kelly Cutrone and male supermodel Rob Evans. Previous judges included fashion icon Twiggy, models Janice Dickinson and Paulina Porizkova, fashion stylist Nolé Marin, runway coach J. Alexander, designer Kimora Lee Simmons, fashion editors Beau Quillian and Eric Nicholson, Vogue editor André Leon Talley, and fashion photographer Nigel Barker. Though not a judge, JayManuel was featured in every episode as the photo shoot director. From Cycles 1–18, an additional guest judge sat in on the panel every week. In Cycle 19, fashion blogger Bryanboy, served as the social media correspondent.
It was announced in April 2012 that Barker, Alexander, and Manuel would not be returning to the show for the nineteenth season, as their contracts were not renewed. Banksstated that it was a difficult decision but the show needed a "new boost" and that she hoped to work with "her guys" in the near future.

Network
It was announced on January 24, 2006, that Top Model would be part of the new The CW network, a merger between UPN and The WB, when the seventh cycle started in September airing on Wednesdays. The series became the first series among regular programmingto air on the network. Prior to the announcement of merging with The CW, UPN had committed to renewing the series through its ninth cycle on January 20, 2006,[10] for which casting was conducted throughout mid-2006. ANTM is the only show left on the network that was originally from UPN.
With the start of the eighteenth British Invasion cycle, the program converted to high definition, becomingthe second-to-last primetime show on the five major English-language broadcast networks in the United States to make the switch, and the last to air in the regular season.
To celebrate its tenth cycle, ANTM aired a special installment called America's Next Top Model: Exposed in two parts on the CW on Wednesday, February 6 & 13, 2008. It reviewed the best cat fights, mishaps and most memorable...
