Must Read
The judges, including Tyra herself, are on the hunt. They're looking for that "it" factor. They need someone who can smize with the best of them.
The Transformations: Before and After Extravaganza!
The lucky few who make it past the initial cut get a makeover. Oh boy, the makeovers! We're talking questionable hairstyles and eyebrow situations that need a serious intervention. It's hilarious.

Watching these young women transform is part of the fun. Some love their new looks. Others...not so much. The drama is delicious.
Seeing the before-and-after photos is a highlight. Some of the transformations are seriously stunning. Others are simply...memorable.
The First Photoshoot: Strike a Pose!
Then comes the first photoshoot. It's always awkward. The girls are nervous. They're trying way too hard. Tyra is watching. Need we say more?

The photoshoots in early seasons were often pretty basic. Think simple sets and even simpler concepts. But that's part of the charm!
You can see who has natural talent and who is completely lost. It’s always entertaining to watch the girls try to channel their inner supermodel. Especially when they fail spectacularly.
The Elimination: Someone's Gotta Go Home
The episode ends with the first elimination. Someone's dreams are about to be crushed. Who will it be? The suspense is real, even if you know the show's format.

Tyra delivers her signature critiques. Some are helpful. Some are... questionable. But they're always entertaining. She has a way with words.
Watching someone get eliminated is always tough. But it's part of the show. And it makes you root for the remaining contestants even harder.
