We Did Come Here To Make Friends (S01E01)

It’s the inaugural episode of Resting on Pretty! This week Erin and Cassie introduce themselves and discuss the America’s Next Top Model pilot episode “The Girl Who Wants it Bad.” They try to make sense of the rather odd and circuitous method to Tyra Banks’ model selection madness and witness the first of many tearful eliminations. Also, Erin tries (and fails) to wrap her head around one of Tyra’s more confounding catchphrases.
