Next in Fashion (2020–2023)
Would have been interesting if not so heavily biased

Warning: Spoilers
The judging of this show is atrocious and makes one question the credibility of the hosts, the main judges also judge and base their decisions on how well the team members get along which isn't the point at all.

The guest judges are easily swayed by the majority, I've noticed how Tan France and the female judge try to influence the decision of guest judges during the runway, they tell them about how there's so much friction is between certain teammates and also about the inspiring background stories of the team members they seem to favor, I think this beats the whole point of "unbiased" judgement.

The judges harp on and on about breaking out of the box yet their favorite team is the girls who've yet to show they can design something more than a formless dress. They have the most repetitive design and it's frustrating to see them get favored over so much more talented and risk-taking designers.

Also it would've been better had the judges rationalised their decisions more other than using repetitive phrases like "it's giving drama" or "it's giving bad bi*ch", I would've loved to hear more "professional" logic behind their judgement and not some overly used buzzwords of people who seem like they're pretending to know what they're doing.

The editing is mid, I think it would've been better had the chaos been minimised a bit, the anecdotes of the judges failed to captivate me and they received excessive screen time imo. There was more emphasis on the childhood stories of the designers than their recent progress which also was a bit bland since I would've like to see a bit more fashion.
