If you ever need a show to binge watch, ANTM is the one. All you need is a Hulu membership (if you are a college student who has a Spotify membership you can get Hulu for free!) and you are ready to watch 22 seasons! Not to mention, the premiere of season 24 airs January 9th at 8 p.m. EST!
I recommend starting somewhere around season 15 because the older seasons are hard to get into if you don't love ANTM yet because they had a lower budget. Once you get into the groove of the show though, every season is perfect in its own way. Here are just some of the reasons to watch one of the best shows of our lifetime:
1. It has all the feels.
This show will make you smile, laugh, scream in shock, and fall in love with some of the competitors. Some of the models grow a lot in the show and you get to watch it first hand!
2. Every season has new competitors.
Don't like some of the competitors? Switch to another season. However, I am sure there will be at least one girl you are rooting for in every season.
3. The makeovers
Some makeovers you would never expect to look great, but they do! Some girls are given weaves and end up looking like a train wreck and some girls cry when their hair is buzzed off.
4. Eccentric photo shoots
There are some strange photo shoots but they are always interesting! Above, India from Season 22 is dressed up as cellophane wrap at a grocery store and she looked FIERCE.
5. The drama
Not all girls love drama, but it sure is fun to watch some of the cat fights on this show. Some girls reach their breaking points with each other and it is quite a show to see.
6. The funny antics
Not only is there drama, but people do weird funny stuff sometimes for no reason. When you have that many people living in a house together competing you are bound to have some weirdness come out.
7. Meltdowns & flip outs
There is your typical drama, but there are also plenty of full-on meltdowns from both the contestants and the judges.
8. Rooting for your fave girl
There is nothing better than seeing your favorite contestant slay at a challenge or photo shoot and watching them move their way up in the competition, and if your favorite gets booted chances are you're rooting for someone else at that point anyway!
9. Male models
In every season there is a little bit of this magic, but in a couple of the seasons (seasons 20 and 21) there is a mix of male and female contestants as well which makes things even more interesting!
10. Getting inspired
The best part is watching these girls compete. You don't feel bad about yourself because even though some of them are gorgeous and fit, a lot of them have flaws that they have to learn to love just like the rest of us, and the winner isn't always the prettiest or skinniest girl either, it's just like life, it is whoever puts in the most work and learns the most who wins!
