Best Bets: "America's Next Top Model," books on sports figures

A new edition of "America's Next Top Model," hosted by Tyra Banks, starts this week. The CW

(CBS News) When a new season of "America's Next Top Model" premieres Friday night, all the contestants will be students, new faces will be at the judge's table and audiences at home will be able to vote on their favorite models.

Replacing Nigel Barker, Jay Manuel and J. Alexander on the college edition of "America's Next Top Model" will be new judges Rob Evans and Johnny Wujek. And the show's new social media platform will allow for audience voting.

The debut of season 19 of this reality show as well as premiere of "The Inbetweeners" on MTV, based on a British TV series about four awkward high school friends, marks an exceptionally quiet summer week in entertainment.

Other TV highlights include the premiere on TLC of "I Found the Gown" and the start of new seasons of TLC's "Say Yes to the Dress - Atlanta," Syfy's "Face-Off" and MTV's "Ridiculousness."

On the big screen, look for the rom-com "Hit and Run," starring Bradley Cooper, Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell, and "Premium Rush," Joseph Gordon-Levitt's thriller about a bike messenger, both in theaters Friday.

Also opening Friday are the sci-fi comedy "Robot and Frank" with Liv Tyler, Susan Sarandon, Peter Sarsgaard and Frank Langella, and Todd Lincoln's horror film "The Apparition."

Out Tuesday on DVD and Blu-ray are the movies "Bernie" and "The Dictator" and new seasons of "Revenge," "The Closer," "House," "Mike & Molly," "NCIS" and "NCIS: Los Angeles."

Music lovers can look forward to the release Tuesday of "Four," the fourth studio album for British indie band Bloc Party and "The Midsummer's Station," a new album from electronica group Owl City. Tuesday is also the release date for singer-songwriter Trey Songz's fifth studio album, "Chaptet V."

Sports fans can read about the career of NFL star Warren Sapp when his memoir with David Fisher, "Sapp Attack: My Story," is released Tuesday, the same day that "Paterno," about the late Penn State coach, by Sports Illustrated writer Joe Posnanski, is published. Also out Tuesday is Jonathan Tropper's "One Last Thing Before I Go," about an aging musician who refuses life-saving surgery so he has the time to build a life worth saving.
