Hail our glorious leader

BITCHES! The Janice Dickinson Modelling Agency, Living TV, 9.00pm

We're very impressed with Living TV for managing to get this on the air so quickly after it aired in America - we were under the impression we'd have to wait years for it to get its British TV debut.

So, since Tyra fired Janice from America's Next Top Model, Janice is in need of another source of income. Why not put all of her knowledge of the fashion industry to excellent use by tutoring and managing thousands of other potential supermodels (and if she happens to steer a couple of brilliant ones out of Tyra's grasp, that's just a bonus)? Basically this is all the trashy fun of America's Next Top Model with one significant bonus: male models. Lots of them. Repeatedly in various stages of undress (well Janice is in charge, what do you expect?).

We're kicking off tonight with two episodes, where Janice organises a casting call on MySpace and fires her extremely annoying triplet assistants. And she tells a whole bunch of people to lose weight, and recruits a girl who's homeless, and she infringes on the personal space of countless others. Everything you'd expect from Janice, and then some. Watch out for the secret star of the show: Janice's teenage son Nathan, who mumbles so much he has to be subtitled.

(Also, don't forgot to watch That Mitchell and Webb Look at 9.30pm on BBC2, which we'll look at more closely next week. And don't forget to click here if you want the latest Veronica Mars update.)

About Us

According to Marxist theory, cultural forms such as opera, classical music and the literary works of Shakespeare all fall under the heading of high culture. Low culture refers to a wide variety of cultural themes that are characterised by their consumption by the masses. We might not be Marxists, but we do know we loved Footballers Wives. If you do too, you'll know what this is all about.
