Talk about over-exposure. First she had a grating, oh-so-very-staged "reality" television show named America's Top Model - which was repetitive garbage - and the next thing you know she's got a big-budget talk show, complete with a huge flickering sign that says "TYRA!" in the background. Yay! (As if we might have forgotten her name.) Banks is one of the most pretentious, pompous and arrogant people you're likely to ever see grace the television set. Her stint on America's Top Model consisted of constantly reminding all the other models that, hey, she's Tyra Banks! She, like, really cool and smart and stuff! She's a model and she knows who's hot and who's not! If you enjoy promoting materialism and the superficial than by all means, Tyra would likely be your hero. But if you are disgusted - as I am - by watching egotistical, dumb people on television trying to tell other people how they should look more beautiful (because remember, children - outer beauty is all that really counts!), you're likely to loathe this as I do.
As far as talk shows go it is very basic - it's the standard deal with the special guest interviews and such. I just find Tyra Banks to be such a grating figure that I can't even enjoy any part of the interviews. It's clear she thinks so much of herself and often cuts off the people she is interviewing to give her own personal stories that she has been reminded of whilst they were responding to one of her questions.
I haven't seen very much of it, but Heidi Klum has a fashion show as well and I found it far more entertaining because Klum - although perhaps not the brightest person in the world - isn't as presumptuous or arrogant as Banks. Maybe she wouldn't be the best candidate for a talk show, but I'd rather watch her pleasant demeanor than have to put up with Trya's big ego.

But it wasn't good enough.
Tyra Banks is a "female" known for modeling. I remember the game on the website newgrounds when I got to take off her....NEVERMIND....
Anyways...If you seen her on that nasty show called Next top model...well you will know that this show will be a disaster then. Tyra lacks a healthy brain it seems.
The show was borderline liberal. Then again it was a liberal show.
I like how Trya wasn't afraid to speak how she feels. (I'm against censorship). However, her views are not healthy. Her show was an example to why people today are unhealthy and destroyed.
She had tons of race bait and sexists subject, guests and etc.
How she got a show...well Its not about talent its about whom you know. She had a chance and failed.
Verdict: Skip, pass don't watch. I watched it for you so you don't have to.

It's so hard to learn about the guests that appear on the Tyra Bank's Show because she is too busy thinking and talking about what to say about herself over and over and over again. It's painful to see. She even has the audience ask her questions about herself, it's so ridiculous and she obviously loves it!! Someone who is in a position to tell her that she is overly self-absorbed needs to tell her. I know it's called the Tyra Bank's Show but she takes the meaning of the title to a whole new level. For most talk shows the title of the show is usually named after the host, such as The Oprah Winfrey Show or The Montel Williams Show, but they don't have a constant need to talk about themselves at every chance they get. That is the difference between the Tyra Bank's show and all other talk shows. Tyra may as well be her own guest (every time) because that would be her idea of the ideal show to sum it all up.

Some times my flat mate watches this TV show. It is hosted by Tyra Banks. The show is called The Tyra Banks Show, and basically it is a big ego trip for Tyra Banks. The intro to the show is very boring and long, then the show itself is about Tyra Banks having different guests and they talk about nail polish and how wonderful it is to have your guy give a perfect proposal or whatever. This is the kind of TV that will leave you empty and stupid after watching. It is like being hit by a car, or running into an invisible brick wall. You do not know what happened, but you know it was painful.
Anyone who's interested in psychology, especially narcissism, should look at this show. I cannot think of another group of people to watch this horrible show.
It would be an okay show, like a daughter to the Winfrey Show, if it wasn't for the host herself.
I get the creepy feeling that I know Tyra Banks mother better than my own. The word "I" gets a new synonym in this show = Tyra Banks.
The guests are okay, BUT if they are good people, like saving the world or something like that, Tyra wont give THEM credit for that, but to herself because she saved a 100 children or what the hell do I know.
Is it a "bad" guest (stripper, whore), Tyra Banks will do anything in her power to prove to the world that she is SOOO against it. So against it that her mother will appear on the show, talking about what a tough childhood Tyra had, but she never took the down road to stripping blablabla.
Watch it only if your extremely bored. Or if your writing Tyra Banks biography book.

It's the only conclusion I can come to. She is awful, overbearing and rude. A good talk show host does not insert her opinion every 4 minutes and fail to let people talk that are on the show. The show should be about the subject, whether it's strippers or whoever, they are humans and because Tyra claims has all these high-morals and doesn't agree doesn't mean they should be humiliated.
You also gotta love her getting dressed up as a stripper and then backing out. I guess in the end Tyra couldn't force herself to go parading out on a stage 1/2 naked...oh wait....didn't she do that for Victoria's Secret?? Oh, but that is different I guess.
Tyras outfits are ridiculous, her make-up is caked on, and her hair must weigh at least 10 pounds.
But of course she ruined Top Model, so why not ruin this show as well? Hopefully they will cancel it soon and she can find something else to do with her time.
Maybe she can go back to her singing career (LOL).

What a piece of crap! I've only seen bits but even just a few seconds of this show makes me feel like killing myself. Tyra is definitely one of the most annoying people on television today.
I thought 'America's Next Top Model' was bad, but now it seems like some form of high art compared to 'The Tyra Banks Show'!!
Avoid at all costs, unless you want a cheap laugh (though it feels wrong, like those insensitive folks who like making fun of handicapped people) - in fact when I first saw the show I wondered if I was watching one of those comedy spoofs. But unfortunately not, this is the real deal... brain-dead morons hosting TV shows, what'll they think of next?

Reading some of the comments on this site have really surprised me about the "Tyra Banks Show". For me, I really like this show, even though it is not perfect, it's entertaining. I really like Tyra's sense of humor, and she seems sincere in her approach. Remember too, that Tyra is not a seasoned interviewer, but she is holding her own OK. This is her 2nd season, and she has come a long way from the 1st season. Most of the topics are good, but you can tell that it's specifically aimed at a 20-30 year old female audience. A couple things I've noticed on this show is that Tyra will tend to cross-plug "America's Top Model". She will have one of the models on the show or slip something in about the show into the conversation. Although, it is good to cross-plug for marketing purposes, this practice can get pretty tired when it's done constantly. Another item I've noticed is that Tyra will tend to pick sides, especially when it comes to having a show about infidelity or bad relationships. Geraldo Riveira and Montel Williams used to do this too, but it's not a good journalism practice. Technically, you should remain impartial, but talk shows tend to not follow this practice. Even with this said, I still really enjoy catching most of Tyra's shows. She tries to have fun with her guests, and tries to include her audience and the viewer in on the fun. When she had Janet Jackson on, and the Wayan Brothers, Tyra really showed her fun side. She tries to mix-it-up with serious topics like racism, discrimination and bad relationships. The episodes that come to mind are when she had Kevin Aviance as a guest and the topic was about gay-bashing, and another show when Sue Johannsen was on about sex/relationship info. My favorite shows are the ones when Tyra goes undercover. This is something I have not seen on past talk shows. It really gives a different perspective on the topic. Tyra has gone undercover to be an exotic dancer, overweight and even a man! This proves to me that Tyra is willing to go the extra mile to experience the covered topic. It's really nice to see that she is willing to get her "hands dirty", and see what it's like first-hand. I hope that "The Tyra Banks Show" stays on the air for a while, because it is one of the better new shows in a sea of mediocre situation comedies and so called reality shows.

Tyra has proved herself to America. A national Top Model and an accomplished Person in her own right! I really believe that her show is much needed in relation to women, young and old, she discusses many truths and issues that battle young and old women alike. From STD's to Beauty & Glamour,Self-esteem, and courage. She still is young and there is an audience for this show. It's not just about Tyra. She reaches those who Oprah can't reach. The Tyra Banks show proves to women that she made it with hard work, and being in the business of modeling, her show sets the stage for young models, actors and the like to know that the show doesn't stop because you get older.
After seeing hitting footage of what really goes on there they certainly put their agenda ahead of what really happened. Softball questions, lolly pop answers
