New York � February 1, 2008 � More Janice, more antics! Oxygen announces the addition of the popular UK series "Janice & Abbey" to premiere one week following the season three finale of "The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency." The series follows supermodel Janice Dickinson and "Britain's Next Top Model" runner-up Abbey Clancy as Abbey proves she's got the guts, the drive and the steely determination to make it in the fashion industry. Originally debuting in October of 2007 as a web series on Oxygen's broadband channel, "Janice & Abbey" premieres Tuesday, February 19th at 11:00pm ET/PT with six, half-hour episodes.
"Our audience simply can't get enough of Janice. She's the biggest draw to Oxygen.com and of course, she's always popular on our air," said Lauren Zalaznick, President of Bravo Media and Oxygen Media.
To assist Abbey in making it on an international level, the legendary Janice Dickinson mentors her in all aspects of the trade and shares her unique wisdom on how to rise to the status of a top model. Janice spends two unforgettable weeks with Abbey in her home town of Liverpool and in London before whisking her off to America for a whirlwind month of castings and meetings with the best in the business in Los Angeles.
"Janice & Abbey" was originally produced by UK-based Whizz Kid Productions under the title "Abbey & Janice: Beauty & The Best" for LIVING.
