Did Tyra Banks & ANTM Film on the Tram Before Residents Got to Ride It?


According to a TV Blog's post of earlier today the models of Tyra Bank's TV reality show America's Next Top Model, in this week's episode, each took a spin on the Roosevelt Island Tram with a male model to test how well each model broke the ice with a new colleague.

When was this filmed? I sure hope it was not recently as RIOC and POMA test out the Tram. If it's a new episode would they be only playing an episode now that was filmed prior to March 2010? That seems strange. So maybe they did film this recently? Seems improbable at best.

  1. They filmed it earlier in the year, before the original tram went out of service. I believe the episode first aired this past April. I remember seeing a clip of it back then, but I can't find it now.

  2. Thanks Paul. That makes sense. Most shows are showing original content so at first I thought this was new. A repeat episode explains it. The TV blog should have made that clear.

  3. Actually it was a year ago. The Roosevelt Islander blog has an item from last November saying they were filming on the tram.

  4. This was filmed ages ago. If you watch you will see the old tram and the kiosk before it was restored and painted the new color.
