Carmen Electra's Manhunt Set To Debut Tonight

Archive

Eye candy for the masses may be the best way to describe this latest reality show from Bravo: “Manhunt” is heavily laden with testosterone.

Men from all over the United States (and abroad) compete for an IMG modeling contract, cash and the title of America’s Most Gorgeous Male Model.

The competition is intense, yet unlike the female counterpart series on UPN, from which this outing was no doubt derived, there is a certain rawness to the proceedings.

Highlights include host Carmen Electra who shines in this offering, though it’s the men most viewers will most likely tune in to see.

Model Bruce Hulse also turns in a noteworthy performance as a judge who jump-starts the show by operating a model boot camp of sorts. He even has the guys line up in their underthings. Later the contestants skydive clothed only in Calvin Klein briefs. The show suggests one answer to the question, “What do women want to watch?”

The show premieres tonight at 10 PM Eastern on NBC.
