Tyra Banks doesn't have to worry about the future of one of her TV projects - network bosses have given the green light on a new season of her hit show America's Next Top Model.

The supermodel-turned-TV presenter is facing a raft of cuts to her daily talk show as U.S. networks feel the pinch of the global economic downturn.

The Tyra Banks Show is to move to CW network's afternoon slot and will see the production schedule cut from 34 weeks to just 26 in a bid to slash costs, after it suffered a nine per cent ratings slump since last year.

But the star's modelling contest, which completed its 11th cycle earlier this week, will be back in spring 2009.
