Jovonnie and Charlie kick off Cycle 2 with Episode 1, in which a new crop of "hand-picked" contestants arrive in New York City and go directly into competition. As always, we cover our standard segments Judging the Judges, ANTM Contribution to Pop Culture, and Cringe of the Week, and we premiere a new segment, One Smize to Live, where we round up the episode's interpersonal drama.
