    • 'Scandal' Tweet-cap: What a Girl Wants

      Fitz finally makes his choice, while the gladiators investigate whether Cyrus is the mole.

      This time, the girl did get the guy. But wow, are there going to be serious consequences. Like, maybe impeachment-level consequences!

      After nearly two seasons of back-and-forth, will-they-or-won't-they, Fitz and Olivia finally get back together. He chooses her instead of appeasing Mellie and watches as the first lady goes on national television to out his affair.

      He chooses love, and the cost just may be his presidency.

      Someone to watch over you

      Olivia is highly perturbed that Jake is still following her around on Fitz's orders. He's even watching her swim -- not cool, guy, that's her private time. She calls Fitz and chews him out, but he insists that Jake is going to keep an eye on her.

      Meanwhile, Mellie threatens to give a national television interview in 36 hours revealing Fitz's affair unless he gives up Olivia and asks her to come back. As Cyrus is dealing with this terrible situation, James tells him that he has a new job. He's going to be a TV anchor for BNC. "I could be the next

    • 'Survivor: Caramoan' Recap: Double-Crossed

      Two tribal councils yield a shocking blindside.

      In "Survivor," the moment you start planning a blindside is when you should expect one in return. Call it "Survivor" karma.

      This week's episode is a doubleheader, with two tribal councils. And with just eight people left in the game, the core alliance of favorites is starting to crumble. The first tribal council yields an expected result, with Reynold finally getting voted out.

      But the second one proves far more interesting. After scheming to blindside Brenda and failing to play her hidden immunity idol, a shocked Andrea herself gets the boot. Grinning as her torch gets snuffed out, she acknowledges her alliance's stealthy maneuvers.

      "That's good," Andrea says. "That's really good." Yes it is!

      Balancing act

      With the Three Amigos reduced to two, Reynold and Eddie know their chances are dimming. But ever the eternal optimist, Reynold hopes he can win immunity. Cochran, though, is already thinking three steps ahead. "I'm not the little Harvard nerd that was trembling in the bushes last time,"

    • What Is the Sexiest 'Jeopardy!' Category Ever? [Video]

      Alex Trebek gets steamy for a special category.

      "Jeopardy!" got down and dirty Tuesday night with a steamy new category called the Sexiest Potpourri Ever.

      "Potpourri" is a grab-bag category of miscellaneous answers. And for this provocative version, each clue was accompanied by sensual, jazzy music, and host Alex Trebek did his best Barry White impression, reading the answers in a low, come-hither voice.

      "Let's turn the lights low and give thanks to this man who also gave the world the first industrial research lab," he intoned suggestively, as the contestants giggled.

      Contestant George correctly answered, "Who is Edison?"

      Trebek was clearly having a blast with the sexy category, adding flirtatious murmurs here and there.

      "That's right, baby. In 1534, Suleiman the Magnificent conquered Iraq in leading this empire against Persia," he read. When contestant Larry gave the correct response -- "What is the Ottoman Empire?"

    • The Duggars Wear Unusual Outfits While Snorkeling on '19 Kids and Counting' [Video]

      Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar don't wear typical swimsuits.

      Even when they go snorkeling, the Duggars preserve their modesty.

      The stars of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting" are famous not only for having so many children but also for their strict religious beliefs. That's why they went swimming fully clothed while snorkeling during a trip to Puerto Rico in Tuesday night's episode.

      As Michelle explained to People magazine, "Bathing suits are pretty and colorful, but it's not our thinking that it is OK to be naked some places and not other places."

      "The eyes are the windows to the soul. And we are trying to keep our hearts pure, which is a struggle," she continued.

      "Everyone has their idea of what is modest, but for our family, we try to avoid situations ... like the public beach or swimming pools that can make it a challenge to keep our minds pure."

      This isn't the first time they've swum in Wholesome Wear swimsuits, though the family generally avoids swimming in public. And the Duggars

    • 'Scandal' Exclusive Sneak Peek: 'Call My Bluff' [Video]

      Mellie threatens to expose Fitz's affair to the entire country.

      Hell hath no fury like a first lady scorned!

      Last week, Mellie (Bellamy Young) packed up her bags to move across the street after she learned that Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) was visiting Olivia (Kerry Washington) in the hospital. Her departure was kept secret, thanks to underground tunnels, but now she's ready to blow the top off the president's affair.

      In this exclusive sneak peek at Thursday night's new "Scandal" episode, Cyrus (Jeff Perry) tries to talk her down -- though calling her childish doesn't seem like the most persuasive argument -- but Mellie isn't budging. "I am the child? I'm not the one stealing the car to make out with my girlfriend," she retorts.

      Fitz has 36 hours to apologize and recommit to his marriage, she tells the chief of staff.

      "If he doesn't, he will have the pleasure of seeing the first lady of the United States call her husband a whore-loving bastard on national television," she warns.

      "You wouldn't!" Cyrus

    • 'The Good Wife' Season Finale Recap: What Did You Think of Alicia's Big Decision?

      Lockhart Gardner goes to court on Election Day, as Peter awaits the results.

      In the season finale of "The Good Wife," we expected Alicia to make a big decision -- Peter or Will?

      But it turns out that the big decision was something else -- Lockhart Gardner or Cary's new firm. And Alicia chose Cary. Florrick, Agos, and Associates is open for business!

      After some Election Day ballot shenanigans, Peter wins the race to become governor. Alicia leaves the celebration to meet someone at home. We think it's Will, but when she opens the door, it's Cary. "I'm in," she says.

      Choosing the new firm is actually her way of choosing Peter over Will. "She's leaving Lockhart/Gardner because she needs to create distance between herself and Will," creator Robert King told TV Line.

      The surprise ending delighted fans and critics.

      "The revelation that it was Cary, and not Will, at Alicia's door was the perfect note to end

    • Exclusive 'Falling Skies' Season 3 Sneak Peek: Rage Against the Machines

      The 2nd Mass battles Mega Mechs to free a group of captives.

      Just when the humans of "Falling Skies" think the tide has turned in their battle against the alien skitters, they come face to face with the Mega Mechs.

      When Season 3 of the TNT sci-fi drama premieres June 9, the 2nd Mass is executing raids to save their fellow humans.

      "The 2nd Mass is now tasked with rescuing as many of the harnessed kids as possible, and they've literally been going all over the country doing these rescue missions," executive producer Remi Aubuchon said at WonderCon in March.
