"Everybody's starting to hate each other." That's the blunt assessment of contestant Daniel about this snippy crew of hair crafters. It was a real dogfight last week when the gang styled the hair of pooches. While Dee ended up being top dog, it was ruff going for loser Nekisa and her "flat" rendering. There will likely be more nasty bites and barks tonight when the remaining five must create back-to-school looks for a group of active 5-year-olds. Later, they shape the hair of their significant others. Which hairdo will be a hair don't?
Project Runway @ 9pm
The remaining dozen designers must create outfits for professional women tonight. And who better to judge designs for working women than a woman who's been working since she was a kid--actress Brooke Shields.
Criss Angel: Mindfreak
Check out the new Las Vegas dance show choreographed by Wade Robson as part of the Criss Angel Vegas show. Should be super hot, dancing and magical illusions!! How does Criss come up with this stuff? This week, he is handcuffed and stuffed inside an 85-gallon drum, which is then stuffed inside a wooden box, before being lifted 100 feet in the air. Now comes the scary part: Once the box reaches the 100-foot mark, it will automatically open and send the box (and whoever happens to be inside) plummeting. Can Mr. Angel get himself out of the handcuffs and the barrel and escape before slamming into the ground?
Buzzin' @ 10:30pm
Cisco and Shwayze travel to the East Coast for a radio tour, but the guys face challenges from the start of the trip when they discover there's a problem with the CD samplers they're taking with them.

After last week's surprising and shocking elimination results that sent the most technically trained dancer home (r.i.p. Will) and found our favorite dancer Twitch second to last and saved by the skin of his teeth-- who knows what to expect from this season! Call us skeptical, but if this was just a ploy to get America to pick up the phone and vote.... well it worked, we're sure to be voting tonight and keep our beloved Twitch in the game. We're digging Katie too. Who are your favorites this season? Were you digging Will's impersonation solo dance?
Project Runway @ 9pm on Bravo
Like previous Runway casts, this season's group features memorable personalities, including leather-loving urban outfitter Stella. And then there's Suede, who refers to himself in the third person over and over and over again. Last week, the colorful clique utilized environmentally responsible materials to create cocktail dresses. It was easy being green for Suede. He may talk in the third person, but he was the first person here, winning with his "effortless" little number. Tonight, Tim Gunn squires the designers on a field trip, with the sights, sounds and styles of New York inspiring them.
Baby Borrowers @ 9pm on NBC
Teens discover they have one life lesson left, and it might just be the most important one yet: Senior citizens enter the scene in the season finale, and they bring along a lifetime of wisdom and experience — and their own little quirks and needs. At the end of it all, the teens look back at their whirlwind experience and reflect on what they have learned, and viewers get an update on what the couples are up to.
Shear Genius @ 10pm on Bravo
Last week, our super cutters went to the shore, but it was no day at the beach: They had to cut and shape the hair of surfer dudes. Overjoyed, cart-wheeling Nicole tallied the win with her snazzy style — pure heaven for her. Speaking of heaven, there's a nifty little reunion between two angels in tonight's outing. Kate Jackson, host Jaclyn Smith's costar in the series Charlie's Angels, appears as a guest judge, overseeing the hairstylists' efforts to reinvent notable looks from that iconic '70s show. Ironically, contestant Charlie appears to be no angel tonight.
