This is probably all my fault. I haven’t watched ANTM for several seasons. I sort of forget that the CW is there and end up catching a marathon a year later on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Apparently, the ratings have fallen tremendously. I had the good fortune to meet Jay Manuel in St. Lucia a couple years ago while we were both staying at the same resort. He was so beautiful in person I had to keep diverting my eyes. He’s a million times better looking in person than on TV which I would have never believed possible. Such a nice person. I cannot believe that the producers of this show think that getting rid of Jay, Miss J. and Nigel Barker will do anything other than kill the show. It defies all logic. They all have major careers apart from the show, Jay Manuel has a fashion line, Nigel is of course a much sought after photographer, and Miss J. needs to come to Real Housewives of Atlanta and coach Cynthia’s students for a filming season! Come see us Miss J., Atlanta needs you!

Come for the tea. Stay for the shade. Not for the easily offended. You're a special snowflake just like everyone else.
Ms. J would put all the queens on RHOA to shame.
I love all 3 of them – especially Ms J and Nigel.
I'm glad she dumped the silver haired dude. Super annoying. The rest don't matter much either.
They should reunite with Janice Dickinson and start their own modeling show.
ANTM has ran its course. It lost me when we started seeing less of Miss J. Him showing the girls how to walk was priceless! This new judge is atrocious. The Cycles keep churning out the same girls except for a few(Ann Ward, Nicole Fox). And Tyra keeps doing sillier and sillier stuff like that Modelland and booty touching shit. I don't blame Azmarie for not wanting to wear it! NEXT!
I caught it on Bravo channel and kinda liked it.
I'm so sorry to hear this but, like you, I stopped watching many seasons ago. Can't even remember why, but I think I remember that they got rid of Tim Gunn? That may have had something to do with it. It may have conflicted with something else I began watching. Habit is addictive & bad habits no son bueno.I liked the regulars: Nina G., Michael K., Heidi, Nigel, Jay, Miss J, Tim. It seemed to work & who gets tired of glimpsing into the next coming thing in fashion?
I haven't watched this show in ages. I do recall during the period that I was watching, that those three were entertaining. This many changes will only lead to disaster, in my opinion.
MaggieG, you seem to have your shows running together in your memory, You have Project Runway mixed together with ANTM. 🙂 All of which it seems we all stopped watching when we got hooked on Bravo.
No wonder I'm so confused. Guess I really didn't watch as much as I thought, but do remember liking the trio in question.Thanks for giving me a much needed clue!
I think Tyra's sponsors are pushing her to make changes with the show. I believe this show is going to be off the air very soon. Miss J Mr. J and Nigel Barker…Tyra is asking for the ratings to tank. What a jerk! These are key figures within this show and without them I don't think this show can go on! Shame on you Tyra Banks…
Just in case someone catches that I am making a comment on this old thread.. I have to share that I am watching ALL THE SEASONS. We keep thinking we’re going to watch something else (we have a lot of the streaming)… we watch 2 or 3 episodes a NIGHT. (Except for Wednesday. Wednesday is for Josh Gates.)
So Mr. Jay has revealed that HE wasn’t fired. But he objected to Nigel and Miss Jay being fired and so he QUIT.
He is doing a “fictional satire” type of book based on a supermodel having a reality show, and the behind the scenes shit.
I might be able to read THAT book with this quarantine brain.
Oh… totally was wrong about his quitting over Nigel & Miss Jay being fired. He had already told production he was not going to renew his contract.
