We had guest judges <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/AvrilLavigne/">Avril Lavigne</a> and <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/KatyPerry/">Katy Perry</a>, but those weren't the only familiar faces we saw. During a segment on contestants who were aping <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/AdamLambert/">Adam Lambert,</a> we saw a guy who said that he would be the product of <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/SusanBoyle/">Susan Boyle</a> and Adam Lambert having sex. He seemed familiar, and now the folks behind <a href="http://twitter.com/tomandlorenzo/statuses/8280508861"><em>Project Runway</em> have figured it out</a>: It was former <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/Project-Runway/"><em>Project Runway</em></a> contestant <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/DanielFranco/">Daniel Franco</a>.<br />
<br />
Franco appeared in not one, but two seasons of <em>Runway</em>, and was <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2006/02/28/daniel-francos-not-so-crazy/">made out to be sort of crazy</a>. He didn't win, and is apparently testing out other avenues in the realm of reality television. He doesn't mention anything about this endeavor on <a href="http://www.danielfranco.net/">his website</a>, but then again, he hasn't updated his blog since 2007. It doesn't appear as though Franco got a golden ticket, so we'll never know how his singing ability stacks up to his design ability. More importantly, we're missing out on the <em>Project Runway/American Idol</em> mashup that we never wanted. <br/><br/>]]>

     <title>Top TV Stories of 2009: Adam Lambert vs. Kris Allen</title>

Especially considering Lambert's high-profile persona lately, starting with his <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/11/23/american-music-awards-j-lo-falls-adam-lambert-freaks-out-paren/">sex-filled <em>American Music Awards</em> performance</a>. <br />
<br />
But no, the winner of <em>American Idol</em> was, in fact, Kris Allen, who's seemingly the complete opposite of Lambert. There's no denying they're both great singers, but whereas Lambert is brash, theatrical and loves to knock those high notes out of the stadium, Allen is more low-key, folksy and laid back. The fellow contestants were also roommates at the <em>Idol</em> mansion. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/12/27/top-tv-stories-of-2009-adam-lambert-vs-kris-allen/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

Last night's <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/video/player/0,1000011,FOOD_32079_5962_29182-45503,00.html"><em>Next Iron Chef</em></a> was all about that, and they even had Iron Chef Morimoto as a judge. <br />
<br />
What did you think? The show is down to its final three contestants. Can you picture one of them standing next to other Iron Chefs like Morimoto, Flay, Cora, Batali, and Symon in Kitchen Stadium? <br/><br/>]]>

It was clever, riffing on talk show shenanigans. We've come a long way since then, with clip shows blanketing the network. And then there's the Internet. On paper the idea of a web video iteration of <em>The Soup</em>, as it's now called, sounds solid enough, and G4 is a good place for it, but as Michael pointed out, <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/06/29/too-much-soup/"><em>Web Soup</em> just isn't working</a>.<br /><br />Even though G4 is the place for techie stuff and they handle web videos already, <em>Web Soup</em> still manages to feel outdated and stodgy. And Chris Hardwick, while funny when he fills in on <em>Attack of the Show</em>, is almost mind-numbingly <em>not</em> funny hosting <em>Web Soup</em>. But Chris Hardwick and the gang were not alone in exploring web videos on our TVs. Comedy Central threw comedian Daniel Tosh into the mix with the webbily titled <span style="font-style: italic;">Tosh.0</span>. But which one, if either, is better? <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/07/06/tosh-0-vs-web-soup/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

The question was simple "Who should win the war?" At the time I write this line, 43.3% voted for Joan, 35.4% said Annie, while 21.1% opted for Trump to fire them both. That means 21.1% of you are disappointed this week, as Trump decided to make Joan and Annie the two finalists. <br /><br />No matter if you like or hate Annie and/or Joan, you have to admit that out of the four contestants that were left at the beginning of the episode, those two will offer the most entertaining finale. Now that we know it's officially Joan Vs. Annie, who do you think should be hired? <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/05/05/who-should-win-the-celebrity-apprentice/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

However, poker player Annie Duke and comedienne Joan Rivers are a close second.<br /><br />In the first episodes of the season, we didn't see much of the rivalry between the two ladies but the past two or three episodes have shown them as enemies. The two of them have done and said pretty harsh things about the other. The war between the two is still ongoing so before one of them is fired, it's time we take a few minutes and make our predictions as to who will win the war: Annie or Joan? <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/04/23/celebrity-apprentice-annie-vs-joan/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

It wasn't the best show I've ever seen, but was it the worst Oscars ever as one friend emailed me? I think there were features that worked and features that tanked. There could have been more star power -- where were Tom Hanks, George Clooney, Jim Carrey, Sandra Bullock, Christian Bale, Tyler Perry (he had the biggest box office opening last week!), etc.? Forget about stars from the '70s...<br /><br />Anyway, I had predicted that <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/01/23/six-reasons-the-oscars-will-probably-stink-video/">the Oscars would stink</a>. Well, I was wrong, or half-wrong. Separate from whether you agreed with the winners -- I did by and large -- or you didn't, what about the broadcast? I think if you had seen all the nominees (or at least the Best Picture noms), you probably had a rooting interest and were amused by most of the show. However, the other half was pretty bad. After the jump, what worked versus what did not. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/02/23/oscars-2009-what-worked-vs-what-didnt/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

Well, two things. First of all, they are finally back for the second half of their current seasons on the USA Network. The other is that the main characters have an obnoxious parent.<br /><br />Shawn's dad in <em>Psych</em>, Henry Spencer (played with personality and perfection by Corbin Bersen), is tough on Shawn, yet has a tender side. Michael's mom in <em>Burn Notice</em>, Madeline Westen (played with obnoxious delight by Sharon Gless), is rough around the edges but loves her son like crazy.<br /><br />They are fun to watch, sometimes a little bit annoying, but always entertaining. So who comes out on top as leading obnoxious parent? Who's the biggest embarrassment to their child?

The <span style="font-style: italic;">Twilight </span>ads and trailers seemed to tell the same story <span style="font-style: italic;">Roswell </span>told<span style="font-style: italic;"> </span>more than nine years ago: A sensitive girl is saved by a supernatural hunk who makes it his mission to protect her at all costs. The two fall in love, but the relationship is complicated by his other-worldly circumstances.<br /><br />It's not exactly the most original story in the world. This sort of thing goes back to Bram Stoker's <span style="font-style: italic;">Dracula</span>, (and probably further back than that). Still, after watching <span style="font-style: italic;">Twilight</span>, I was a bit shocked by its similarities to <span style="font-style: italic;">Roswell</span>, especially since <span style="font-style: italic;">Roswell </span>wasn't half as popular as <span style="font-style: italic;">Twilight</span>. I haven't read the <em>Twilight</em> or <em>Roswell</em> book series, so I can't tell you if the similarities persist in print (but my friend <a href="http://thewaterglass.blogspot.com/2008/08/roswell-vs-twilight-teen-love-showdown.html">Stephanie</a> can). I can only compare the big screen and TV versions. <br /><br />From major plot points to character motivations, these two franchises have a lot in common, but one clearly stands above the other. Let's compare, and you'll see what I mean: <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/12/02/twilight-vs-roswell-are-aliens-more-romantic-than-vampires/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

" />Welcome to <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/super-skank-wednesday/"><strong>Super Skank Wednesday</strong></a>. This is where I celebrate the awesomely skanky people on the following shows: <em>I Love Money</em>, <em>Charm School</em>, <em>New York Goes to Hollywood</em>, and <em>The Surreal Life</em>. Basically, I'll discuss the skankalicious shows that make <a href="http://www.vh1.com/">VH1</a> the network it is today.<br /><br />I was left rather disappointed with <span style="font-style: italic;">I Love Money</span> this week. Another one of my "Fantasy<span style="font-style: italic;"> I Love Money</span>" picks went home leaving me with a whopping 140 points. And I was planning on writing a big tribute to Megan's demise but NO! She's still there. <br /><br />I was so annoyed with <span style="font-style: italic;">ILM</span> that I started watching <span style="font-style: italic;">New York Goes to Hollywood </span>again. The show still reeks of artifice with New York going to a nail salon to study Japanese culture or thinking "break a leg" means that the person wants to do her physical harm. However, by the fourth episode, Sister Patterson has entered the scene and is saving the show with her outright rudeness and over-the-top behavior. <br /><br />So I decided to pit the two women I love to hate against each other for a Vs. piece. This Super Skank Wednesday I give you: <span style="font-weight: bold;">Megan Hausermann Vs. Sister Patterson, The Battle of the Hateful Shrews</span>. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/09/03/super-skank-wednesday-megan-hausermann-vs-sister-patterson-v/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

It seemed to have some of the same elements that I liked about <em>Buffy</em>: demon lore, a Scooby gang, a story arc, and a lighthearted, humorous side to a subject that could be very dark.<br /> <br /> So how does <em>Reaper</em> measure up to <em>Buffy</em>? When I actually did the breakdown, I was pleasantly surprised. A very interesting outcome, indeed....<br /><br />%Gallery-23136% <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/05/19/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-vs-reaper/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

I watched all seasons but one so far (I was away for one summer with no access to a TV) and started reading up on the <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/live+feeds/">live feeds</a> last summer. One of the things I like to do when watching is trying to predict who'll be evicted next. So even if Jackie put a "Who will have the jury votes to win <em>Big Brother 9</em>?" in her review of <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/04/23/big-brother-9-final-hoh-competition-final-eviction/">Wednesday's episode</a>, I decided to chime in and give my two cents about both players and make my own prediction.

<p>"Welcome to the war." Ben Linus utters those words to John Locke in one of ABC's <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/Lost-/"><em>Lost</em></a> promos, gun in hand. Since day one, Ben claimed that the freighter folks were going to kill everyone on the island. The show's <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/04/12/its-official-lost-and-greys-finales-get-an-extra-hour/">three-hour finale</a> is only a few weeks away. What do these last episodes of the season hold for the island residents? Can they hold their own against Widmore's team of scientists and thugs? <strong>Spoiler Warning:</strong> Some details from promos, interviews, and podcasts are mentioned.</p>

Either the arrogant Brit or the American Cowboy will hear the words "You're hired." <br /><br />In an unsurprising move, <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/celebrity/donald-trump/71941">Donald Trump</a> decided in last week's episode to have <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/celebrity/piers-morgan/480747">Piers Morgan</a> and <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/celebrity/trace-adkins/365939">Trace Adkins</a> face off during the final task. This decision goes against that of CNBC's Erin Burnett and Jim Cramer, brought on to interview the Top 4 contestants, but The Donald knew better than to have <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/celebrity/carol-alt/1196">Carol Alt</a> and Trace as the final two contestants. Both are really good contestants and played a clean game but, let's admit it, a live finale with Carol and Trace is not as promising as a Piers and Trace one ratings-wise. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/03/24/the-apprentice-piers-vs-trace-video/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

In fact, in the pilot for NBC's <span style="font-style: italic;">Lipstick Jungle</span> -- which looks like ABC's <span style="font-style: italic;">Cashmere Mafia's</span> twin sister -- the Brooke Shields character is a movie executive who learns that her company, which has been developing a Galileo biography for Leonardo DiCaprio, is competing with a rival studio that's also making a movie about the famous astronomer. In other words, these things happen all the time in show business! That's the case on cable TV now with not one, but two shows about a professional matchmaker.<br /><br />The shows A&amp;E's <span style="font-style: italic;">Confessions of a Matchmaker</span> and Bravo's <span style="font-style: italic;">Millionaire Matchmaker</span> couldn't be more dissimilar in style. They're like different sides of the same coin: heads you're schmoozing in a hot tub with a Malibu millionaire, tails you're riding a Zamboni with a guy who works at a suburban ice-skating rink. That's how diametrically different these matchmaking yentas are! Aside from their passionate desire to make matches that work, the only other factor linking the <span style="font-style: italic;">Confessions'</span> matchmaker to <span style="font-style: italic;">Millionaire's</span> is that they share the same name, Patti!<br /><br />%Gallery-16130% <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/02/15/confessions-vs-millionaires-matchmakers-that-is/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

This week, the bruised egos are those of <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/americas-got-talent/223363/main"><em>America's Got Talent</em></a>'s Piers Morgan and of <em>The Apprentice</em> (Season 1) Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth. Since the beginning of the season, both have been strong and opinionated players on their respective teams. Even if they didn't have to work together, Piers and Omarosa were pretty vocal about what they thought of each other. This week, hell broke lose when Trump decided to mix up the teams and the enemies ended up, you guessed it, on the same team!<br /><br />%Gallery-14411% <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/02/15/celebrity-apprentice-piers-vs-omarosa-videos/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

<p>Last week's riveting <em><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/lost/">Lost</a> </em>premiere brought the Jack-Locke conflict to an entirely new level. This time, all of the survivors (including some of the Others) were <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/01/31/lost-the-beginning-of-the-end-season-premiere/">forced to choose sides</a>. It wasn't an easy decision, and there were some surprising choices. Each side has its benefits and its drawbacks. Let's take a closer look at these new teams! </p> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/02/06/team-jack-vs-team-locke/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

Even if they somewhat worked well together on the tasks, their business relationship was pretty much a hate-hate one or at least a "I'm tolerating you because I have to." But in light of the <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/02/01/celebrity-apprentice-piers-vs-vinnie-video/">Vincent Pastore fiasco</a> from last week, Baldwin has had enough and may give The Donald his resignation... or will he? <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/02/05/will-stephen-baldwin-leave-celebrity-apprentice-this-thursday/">Continue Reading</a>]]>
