TV review ‘Top Model’: Forms and fish sludge – VG

“Top Model” meets as a reality study in intrigue, group mentality and jealousy. But the packaging is duller in the “form full” round.

TV PREMIERE

“Top Model”

the Nordic model reality in 24 parts

FEM, Tuesdays and Thursdays. 21.30

After three years of absence from the screen has “Top Model” has gone from TV3 to TVNorge – rather FEM and model seedlings have gone from modellspinkle to so-called shape fullest. The models, which many have size 38 or 40, has been called just that, even before the premiere created reactions.

Did you read : “Top Model” -deltagerne will not called “plus size.”

This year’s edition is also a Scandinavian co-production: There are 18 girls from Norway, Sweden and Denmark to be vying to get modeling contract and a lingerie campaign. This time parts judging panel also the presenter job:

A specific Lina Rafn representing Denmark, blogs Janka Polliani is Norway smiling, soft-spoken contributions, while a regular in “Top Model” -sammenheng, Jonas Hallberg is Sweden’s flamboyant flagship.

Hallberg is as usual the one who delivers the tabloid throttle in any way. Standing series little quiet, only to cut into some “Oh my god!”, “Go home bitches” and “Nearby there tits, curves och ass”, signed the Swede.

Did you with you : Tyra Banks had children with his Norwegian girlfriend.

Norwenglish

It should be noted that “Top Model” has long been a concept that matches Hallberg drama, glam and “over the top” -ment – and not least in the tendency to mix English into all sentences. Because it is impossible to say “different shapes” or “curvy season” on Norwegian or Swedish (in the fashion world, you must know).

But despite several curves, shapes and variety, appears this season as a much grayer, dimmed variation than we are used to. Yes, participants live in a big house in Lisbon with pool and jacuzzi, but we see more hoboing in couch or bed than bolt ring in the bathroom.

The abrupt cityscape cliffs with jerky zoom to techno tones does not work wonders to increase the glamor factor, nor a photoshoot in fish sludge. Narrator voice could easily sold housewife products in the 50s, but not sliding playfully into the “Top Model” in 2016.

It should be said that the first episodes have the ungrateful task of establishing 18 unfamiliar faces and new panel of judges. It tends to get more speed and color when challenges run in earnest and more is falling.

Tyra Banks : “Top Model” must be renewed.

And already in episode three, we can expect transformation session at the hairdresser. The, I’ve yet to see not deliver Gullruten-fledged TV moments when tears fall in line with your hair.

Intra live

the most interesting reality ingredients are still here: It is only ten minutes into the first episode before we see the first saltwater stripes in a corner of the eye – and feelings escalate into large routing by the end of the episode.

the Danes and Swedes have problems understand Norwegians. The girls have trouble understanding each other. They agree that all women of all shapes should lift each other up instead of pushing each other down, but at the same time it is obviously someone who must have the role of dislike – and someone must have role to feel misunderstood.

And still there are some who do not realize that you do not win “Top Model” about creating drama because you have to keep in a fish.
