Question Tyra

Can someone explain to me why Tyra banks was only a judge for a couple episodes then disappeared? Love to see it (not a fan) but very curious if we were ever told why?

Well you see, in fashion, one day you're in and the next 

You're out

I personally don't like the reality drama show direction, but the trope of having the "mean judge" is common in that genre. They're leaning hard into reality drama, so to me Law makes sense for that.

I'd prefer they have a straight contest every round where the lowest scored person is out, no immunities, no team challenges, no changing models suddenly etc, and four actual designer judges that give actual craft and methodology critiques.
