I'm always on the hunt for new reality shows and I'm glad to report that I found one worth watching. Model City chronicles the ups and downs of 6 male models at Red Model Management. It's refreshing to see the fashion industry thru the eyes of a male model (especially black male models) and unlike other shows out there these guys are legitimate models booking major gigs. The show airs on Centric TV (owned by BET) Thursday nights. If you're like me and had no clue what Centric TV was, click here to find out if you get it in your area.
My favorite model is Ibrahim (pictured left, center). Not only is he a vet in the game, but he has a gracious, humble nature about him that I like. My other standout is Salieu (pictured left) who is a newbie but quickly learning the ropes.
I've been anti-BET for quite some time but it's nice to see them stepping up their game. This show is entertaining and the quality is nice. I've had issues with other BET reality shows being slightly bootleg with their production quality, but this is definitely doing big things.
The season premiered Feb. 18th so I'm definitely late. Has anyone been watching?
