Now that Top Chef has taken their knives to Chicago, it’s only fitting (as well as predictable) that the first quick fire challenge will be a signature deep dish pizza. But of course, being the fancy-schmancy chefs that they are, instead of things like pepperoni and cheese, they’re throwing in ingredients like Asian pickled vegetables. Mmmm…just the way we like it!

In a recent video created for Logo, T.R. Knight, Janet Jackson and Ashanti are among the many celebs showing their support in a new anti-hate video, shortly after the much scrutinized murder of Lawrence King. King, only 15 years old, was found dead last month after a student allegedly shot him because he was gay.Your take: What are your thoughts on the PSA created in honor of Lawrence King?
Today’s Video Break: InterventionEpisode Title: “Peter and Renee”Season: 1Year: 2005Why we love this episode: This particular episode of the poignant documentary series opened our eyes to the fact video game addictions are very real—and very serious. For Peter, the 21 year-old gamer featured in this episode, 17-24 hours of playing video games is just another day to him. And his family has no other choice than to resort to an intervention, and hopefully help him get back to a normal life. Watch the episode.Your take: Which episodes of Intervention do you remember most?
She may play a tranny on TV, but after seeing her latest photo shoot, Rebecca Romijn sure ain’t shy about showing off her all-female assets for the camera. The actress (and once supermodel) recently posed for the 2008 spring campaign for Bebe clothing in a place that really will get people doing a double take—the bedroom! And let’s just say her poses on the bed aren’t exactly G-rated.
Got the need for speed? Then you probably won’t be disappointed with the new trailer for Speed Racer. Not only does the big screen adaptation of the animated series have an awesome cast (Emile Hirsch, Christina Ricci, John Goodman, Susan Sarandon and Matthew Fox), visually, the flick looks like it’s going to be a mock-speed ride bursting with more colors than a Crayola factory.

As yet another season of Beauty and the Geek ensues, another batch of brilliant (wink, wink) women and socially-challenged men embarrass themselves in front of America. But one geek in particular caught our eye. Perhaps it's his tuxedo t-shirt (which clearly says "I want to be formal, but I'm here to party”), or the shifty-eyed delivery of his touching poem. Whatever it is, we definitely are putting our money on that guy! Go to video close-up now!
Project Runway winner Christian must really be big-time now because the writers of SNL have donned him worthy enough of his own sketch! In it, the 22-year old fashion phenom stars in his own fierce reality show where he…uh…well, we’re really not sure what goes on besides him berating some chick's wardrobe. All we know is that it's "Tranny fierce" and won’t bore Nina.
Look out Jason Bourne, there’s a new kid on the bad-ass block, and he goes by the name of Waldo… as in, Where’s Waldo? And now that his identity has been stolen, he is pissed off! This is one intense, action-packed thrill ride that will make the Bourne trilogy look like a Saturday morning kids’ show. Why? Because bad things are about to happen when top agents go up against Waldo! Can anyone find that stealthy bastard? Must be the inconspicuous outfit he wears.
We know what you’re thinking, “Oh sweet, another lawyer show.” But don't write off Fox’s latest series Canterbury’s Law just quite yet. Not only does it star ER’s alum Julianna Margulies as a hard-ass lawyer, but we love how she works that “I defend bad people and sleep just fine at night” angle. Watch it now! | More online videos
Today's Video Break: Perfect StrangersEpisode Title: "First Date"Season: 1Year: 1986Why we love this episode: You'll always remember your first date — especially if it entails sheep jokes and the "dance of joy." When cousin Larry decides to double-date with Balki for Balki's first real outing with a female, he bestows a few pointers on the Meepos native. Honestly, we were kinda feelin' Balki's dropping-at-women's-feet tactic — definitely don't see that at the bars these days!Watch it now!Your take: What's your favorite Larry and Balki moment?
Bet you thought the whole Anna Nicole storm had officially run its course now that the one year anniversary of her death has passed. Oh, but you’re forgetting one little thing—the movie of her tragic ending (starring DWTS' Willa Ford) has yet to come out. The only entertaining part of the trailer was when it dubbed itself “the most anticipated trailer of the year.” Oh wait, they were serious? Our bad.
Ah theme songs, they really just aren’t what they used to be (minus The Simpsons who we give three gold stars for creativity). Nowadays, all you get is some instrumental indie song crunched into ten second span of pretty faces and some crafty CGI flashing across the screen. So in honor of the good ole’ days of theme songs that actually told a story, we’re treating you to one our personal favorites— The Jeffersons’ “Movin’ on Up.” Permission granted to sing along. Watch it now! | More online videos
After yet another failed attempt to find Teyla, Sheppard returns to Atlantis. But for some reason, he can’t help but wonder if something’s up. Perhaps it’s the fact that, oh say, the city is completely deserted and is now surrounded by sand instead of water?! Uh oh, looks like someone’s accidently traveled thousands of years into the future. Watch it now! | More online videos
Today’s Video Break: Samantha Who?Episode Title: “The Virgin”Season: 1Year: 2007Why we love this episode: Granted this freshman series has only aired a handful of episodes, we have to say we are big fans of this particular episode. Not only has Samantha been traumatized enough trying to live her life with zilch in her memory bank, but the poor thing can’t even remember how to kiss let alone have sex with a guy. The best part, though, has to be when she goes to Mama Newly for ‘the talk’ about the birds and the bees (or as she calls it, “the happy touch.” (3:30-5:23)Go to video close-up now!Your take: Tell us your favorite Samantha Who? moment!
As if seeing Heidi Montag flailing her man-hands around on a beach wasn’t traumatizing enough, now we’re being exposed to Tila Tequila in a corset and fishnets getting a lap dance from another chick. And it only gets worse in the reality star’s new music video entitled…wait for it…“Stripper Friends.” What is going on with the music industry these days? Who’s up next for a mainstream music video? A Kardashian? Seacrest? One of the Girls’ Next Door?
Honestly, we're not really positive if this commercial aired anywhere besides the web, but we do know that it’s definitely, well, different. We were convinced we stumbled upon Idol scandal-gold here because the first 20 seconds resembled a homemade porno! But alas, the country girl was merely pushing an electric toothbrush. Bummer. And check out Kristy Lee’s previous music video!
Reports have now been confirmed that 55 year-old actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The Dirty Dancing star is currently undergoing treatment and is reportedly responding well thus far. Unlike earlier reports that Swayze only had weeks to live, the good news is that the star's doctor says his chances are, "considerably more optimistic.”
When you really stop to think about it, Lost’s resident smart-ass, Sawyer, has rarely called anyone by their actual name in the series. He’s actually used so many nicknames for the other characters that someone (with a whole hell of a lot of time on their hands) strung together every one from the past three seasons into a web video. “Well it’s about time, cowboy!”
Today’s Video Break: How I Met Your MotherEpisode Title: “Slapsgiving”Season: 3Year: 2007Why we love this episode: Ever since Marshall won five Barney-slaps to be used at any time, we’ve anxiously awaited seeing how Marshall would strategically dole them out to the unsuspecting sap. But so far, number three has been the best smack yet—not only does he nail Barney right across the face with only seconds to spare on the ‘slap countdown clock,’ but Marshall also composed an entire piano number to commemorate the wondrous occasion that is “Slapsgiving.” (18:55-21:00)Go to video close-up now!Your take:What's your favorite HIMYM moment?
By now you’ve all heard of Idol wannabe David Hernadez’s stripping gig before making it to Hollywood. But have you heard about his foursome? Yep, him and three other guys, a dark auditorium and a night of crazy… a capella singing. What? You thought we meant the other kind of… get your mind outta the gutter! Check him out performing “For the Longest Time” in the Vinyl Four. Your take: Thoughts on his performance in this video? Or better yet, do you care that David was a stripper? Are you glad he's not getting the boot from the execs?
With another cycle of Top Model comes the episode that we all wait for with baited breath. It’s time to bust out the hair bleach and weaves because the makeover episode has arrived! But rather than announcing which look each girl is about to receive (and watch the tears start to flow), Tyra has decided to be exceptionally evil this season by sitting each one in a chair without telling her little minions what to expect. Yep. So the ones that are getting all their hair chopped off won’t even know it until they look in the mirror—love it! Watch it now! | More online videos
You can always count on one thing every year at fashion week (beside the Olsen twins in oversized glasses and carrying bags they both could fit in comfortably). Yes, fashionista Vicky Beckham will be present to observe. But rather than sitting in the audience and pursing her lips for photogs, Posh will be joining the judging panel for the Runway finale. Hate to admit it, but we’re secretly rooting for Christian. Your take: Who do you think will take home the victory at fashion week?
