OH, MWAH!

Joe Millionaire continues to be money in the bank for Fox. Monday night's episode — which introduced the word "Mwah... " into the venacular — attracted more than 20 million viewers and delivered Fox its largest audience ever in the Monday-at-9 pm hour. In case you missed it, Evan gave 25-year-old loan officer Melissa Jo ("MoJo") the boot, leaving just three gold-diggers — Sarah, Melissa M. and Zora — to vie for his affections. We're going to give the edge to Sarah, who disappeared into the woods with Evan and, um, slurped him. Our favorite moment: When Melissa M. outright confessed to Evan that she was a "mercenary." (She meant to say missionary.) Talk about priceless.
