Benji Shows Why He's Your "Favorite Dancer"

What with the flawless, energetic performances, the "Marry Me" signs in the audience and the endless praise from the judges, it was no surprise that Benji Schwimmer won Fox's So You Think You Can Dance last Wednesday. But the 22-year-old swing dancer from Redlands, California, says he "didn't comprehend it" when host Cat Deeley read his name. What we can't comprehend is how Benji performed in the finale, hopped on a red-eye flight to New York, appeared on a couple of TV shows, and still managed to be such a gosh-darn nice guy when TVGuide.com caught up with him on Thursday morning.

Big Brother Cuts the Jase

Since Big Brother 5, Jase Wirey has settled down with his girlfriend Heidi (not the annoying Holly who he had a "showmance" with in the house) and has become a father figure to Heidi's daughter, Caleigh. Pretty impressive changes for the wild and crazy leader of the Four Horsemen alliance. But not everything has changed for the Big Brother 7 all-star — there was still the mandanna, his obsession with the man in the mirror, and his wild temper. TVGuide.com caught up with the new Jase to ask him about his recent stay in the BB house and about his unanimous eviction. Turns out he is a man of few words.   TVGuide.com: Good morning. You sound tired. Jase: I'm not too thrilled about all this.   TVGuide.com: You seemed to hint that you'd be back — do you

I'm wondering why, in this ...

Question: I'm wondering why, in this day and age, if a game goes into overtime, it messes up the TV lineup for that station. Heck, we can put a man on the moon, but we can't seem to figure out how to do this. It's insane. I love to watch Cold Case, but it's rarely aired on time because of some game before 60 Minutes and Cold Case. Isn't there something that can be done so this doesn't happen so often? Just hoping, I guess. Thanks for your time.Answer: There's actually a very good reason it's done that way, Deirdre: a 1968 game between the Oakland Raiders and New York Jets known in NFL lore as "the Heidi game." And you may be annoyed with the current system, but I guarantee that your irritation is nothing compared to the fury genera

Project Runway I know it's not...

Project RunwayI know it's not unusual, but it's so unfortunate that the finalists had to pull an all-nighter right before the biggest event of their career so far. Even after sewing all night, Daniel had what looked like either the show's assistants or the models themselves sewing on buttons backstage. But onstage you couldn't tell any of this, especially when he did a happy little jig for his family. I am still drooling over the white coat and the shirt with the dipping back. And I hope his and Chloe's dresses with pockets (along with Amy Adams' and Sandra Bullock's Oscar dresses) are the start of a trend. On the other hand, the first jacket looked like a couch, and when Rebecca tripped away in that brown dress, I could see M
