Randy Jackson Presents: America's Best Dance Crew @ 10pm
This hip-hop dance-off has been prime-time Thursday's highest rated show on cable for ages 12-34 and has already been picked up for a second season. Tonight, Mario Lopez announces the Season 1 winner of the $100,000 grand prize and the coveted title of America's Best Dance Crew. Will the top crew be Boston boys Status Quo or masked crusaders JabbaWockeeZ? We miss Fysh -n- Chicks!!
The Donald means business: He names the winning celebrity apprentice in tonight's two-hour finale. Trump himself calls this an epic battle of good vs. evil, with two very different finalists coming to the fore and facing off. Here, country-music good ol' boy Trace Adkins and Brit mean fiend Piers Morgan endure a taxing quest to create a grand charity event and concert featuring the Backstreet Boys (who come complete with diva-esque demands). The ousted Lennox Lewis and Marilu Henner return to help Adkins, while Stephen Baldwin and Carol Alt return to help Morgan. There are big bucks at stake, too, with the winner taking home a $250,000 bonus for his charity.
Tonight's escaped soul is a woman (Emmanuelle Vaugier) who feels threatened by beautiful females and wants to kill all the women she feels are more beautiful than she is. Now, wait a minute, folks... Emmanuelle Vaugier? They must have her under a ton of ugly makeup or something. Anyway, the next one in her crosshairs is Andi. Meanwhile, Sam informs Sock and Ben they can't be friends with Steve and Tony anymore, and Sock is majorly bummed about it because he's gotten so used to Steve and Tony taking care of him.
Tyson and Niki's 14 posers reassemble for an obligatory reunion edition hosted by Bravo personality Andy Cohen. It's model fodder when the fetching fashionistas opine about the final models, reflect on the catty catwalk dramas of Season 1 and provide status reports on their current lives. Unseen (juicy) footage rounds out the show. Can you believe cutie Tyson is 35 years old?! Hot!

Survivor: Micronesia- Fans vs. Favorites @ 8pm
No one is playing the game better right now than former coach potato Cirie. Previously, she single-handedly gave Yau-Man the boot, and last week she orchestrated Joel's exit. Clearly, being smart and savvy are more beneficial than possessing pure brute strength. Tonight, however, the focus is on Jonathan, who is dealing with a serious infection. Will he stay or will he have to leave the game to get medical help? Meanwhile, Jason unwittingly becomes the victim in Ozzy's fake-idol ploy when he finds Ozzy's hand-carved creation on Exile Island.
Kara and Jimmy go to a totally rockin' OneRepublic concert, and one of the roadies turns out to be none other than former Smallville townie Pete Ross. Unfortunately for Pete, he chews some kryptonite-laced gum and develops a bad case of superpowers. When Clark and Chloe meet up with their old friend, they warn Pete against using his newly acquired powers in public, but Lex gets wind of it. He then blackmails Pete into helping him break into Lionel's safe (man, those Luthors have serious trust issues) by threatening to reveal Chloe as a meteor freak.
One of the beauties of Lost is that when there's a major revelation — last week's was that the vaguely nefarious Charles Widmore owns the freighter — we're not surprised, just intrigued. Messrs. Cuse and Lindelof don't waste characters, so Widmore is merely back in action. We don't know why Penny's dad wants in on the island, but we certainly know why Jin and Sun (tonight's stars) want off: Jin's pregnant; not a good thing to be there. The episode's title, Ji Yeon, is a Korean girl's name, so can we assume they make it? Last week's tease promised that the last of the Oceanic 6 would be identified, so you do the math.
It's a mod, mod, mod modeling world, particularly when the dirty half dozen got hip last week to brand management and vintage looks. They also celebrated hostess Niki Taylor's birthday with a homemade song, featuring the four male models crooning in tandem like a busted boy band. Our pretty "runway projects" try to stay in tune tonight with a jaunt to New Orleans for charity work. It won't be easy in the Big Easy when they participate in a cemetery shoot and a gothic catwalk show.

"Tyra? Are you joking? I’m the only male supermodel there is, the only one who can make a supermodel," he told PageSix.com. "Do you think Tyra can just call up Naomi Campbell and ask her to teach these kids how to walk the runway? Please! You know Tyra and Naomi aren’t cool like that right? And we’re in New York, Tyra's in L.A. Nothing’s going on in L.A. [My models] will go on go-sees, be doing what it takes where the action is, in New York. Please!"
----Tyson Beckford's response when he was asked what he thought about Tyra Bank's show 'America's Next Top Supermodel.
