Don't sign up for "Modeling Agency"

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency" documents the one-time supermodel's launch of her own agency. Think of it as "Zoolander" without the self-awareness.

Dickinson is all brass and rant and in-your-face aggression in this 10-episode series of half-hours. Those who will likely find the greatest success in her new agency are the ones with the greatest tolerance for verbal assault.

Armed with three young blonde assistants ("One for each mood swing," she says, though that seems a bit conservative), Dickinson embarks on her new career as a combination agency mogul/supermodel finder/drill sergeant/earth mother. Whatever warmth she allows to seep through is marinated in a certain smugness, as when she rescues what we're told is a homeless young woman (named, uh, Teresa Cutie) and gets her runway-ready. We see her audition aspiring models -- male and female -- and put a few under her tutelage, snapping their photos and dressing them down before dressing them up.

The concept naturally will sink or swim on Dickinson's outsized tough-love dynamic, and being that she is an acquired taste, that may be a problem. "I've got two words for people who don't want to work with me: ANAL SEX!" she intones during the premiere. It's already one word too many.
