THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING WOMAN: It seemed to me that this week's ANTM was designed to be a week in which someone would be cut on the strength or weakness of the whole package instead of their performance in the week's challenges. I mean, two people are selected for "featured roles" in a Gael Enrique Iglesias video based solely on whether they sufficiently resembled Goth Vampire girls (no surprise as to one of the selections, given Tyra's "Tim Burton" comments during the School of Non-Hoochie Sex segment), and then the 2-5 second video clips were the sole determinant of who would be ousted? No way. The oustee was never ever ever going to win, but I was truly hoping that this would be the week in which Chantal would hit the road. I didn't really need to hear her "I was born to model. Look at this face. Look at this body." speech for the 700th time unless it was coming directly from the "lack of self-awareness leads to ironic downfall" page in the Reality TV Scripting for Dummies book.

I also thought that we had finished the Bianca bitch-redemption arc during last week's clip show, but apparently we are heading into round two. Are we being prepared for a Heather/Bianca final two?
