Manhunt (2004 TV series)
Manhunt: The Search For America's Most Gorgeous Male Model was a reality television series hosted by Carmen Electra on the Bravo network. It followed a formula similar to UPN/The CW's America's Next Top Model, but with two differences. One, all the contestants are male, and two, there is a spy among the men. Also multiple contenders are voted off each time, unlike the single-elimination structure of America's Next Top Model. Jon Jonsson was the winner.
