So You Think You Can Dance introduced us to the Top 10 this week and there was some hardcore dancing, some hardcore personalities, some hardcore dissing, and some hardcore overdoing of John Mayer.

Quickly because I leave for the airport in 6 hours and have to sleep at some point… I love having Mia back as a Judge! An Emmy nominated Judge at that! I was psyched to see Wade get his shot at choreographing this new twist in the show. All of the solo’s will be the exact same routine which gives us a chance to critique each dancers take on the choreography. I was psyched to see me some Neil in some tight polyester and I was psyched to just have the show on!

Lacey is one hot sexy ass lady. Her Mormon relatives must flip their lids to see her sex it up as she does. WOW can the girl command a stage. Working it out from front to back, there was nothing wrong with her performance. Flawless. Danny’s as well. She ate him alive, but the boy can move.

Neil and Sara were electric, energetic, and quite the disco duo! Those pants did not disappoint, I love Neil even more now! Hot Tamales!

Sabra and Kameron were good I thought. She was absolutely stunning to watch and he was better than he has been for weeks. I get that he’s still lacking something but you’ve got to hand it to the kid for trying! I still miss Sabra and Dominic together though, don’t you?

Dominic and Jaimie’s Viennese Waltz was soooo not what I expected. It was not the Viennese Waltz we’ve come to know and love. She is always stunning with her lines and all but this was hands down Dom’s worst week. Like Mia said, 1 bad week… not too shabby!

Lauren and Pasha were really good tonight, I hate to admit it. The whole transformers opening and close were incredible to watch and sooooo perfectly in sync. I still don’t like her though. She annoys me.

Remember how I said I was excited for Wade’s choreography? Yeah, it wasn’t his best and to then see it 10 times was a little, how do I say this… TOO FRAKKIN’ MUCH! If I had to hear John Mayer say he was waiting for that world to change one more time, I was going to turn on every light in the house, run every air conditioner and start dumping oil into the Boston Harbor. That world needed to END!

In theory it was a good try. I did like watching how each one was different. Of the girls, I thought Sara, Sabra, and Lacey were the best. Of the boys, Neil, Pasha, and Danny.

So who goes home and who stays? Ideally I want Lauren gone. I worry about Jaimie because her solo was weak and then getting stuck with Dom was not good for her this week. Over on the guys side, it’s gotta be Kameron right? Poor Kam Kam!

Oh and how funny that once again Cousin Heidi got NO LOVE AT ALL? Dmitry’s up there shaking his thang and there’s poor Cousin Heidi screaming LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, I’M ON TV AGAIN! Tragic.

Raise your hand if you wanted to KNOCK ON NEIL’S WOOD?

Write yourselves an email, write it on the back of your hand, send a courier pigeon to your house, call your voicemail, staple a note to your newborn child, do something that reminds you to watch the premiere of DAMAGES on FX tonight at 10pm.

This show will blow your mind! You will not be sorry. Here’s my DAMAGES PREMIERE REVIEW.

Ducky reader MELLIEMEL (hiding her real name for gangsta purposes I presume) was lucky enough to attend the taping of last night’s SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE Top 10 performances. As she promised last week, she’s bringing us all the scoop from inside the house!

MellieMel will spoil you, she’ll treat us, and she’ll make you laugh when we go ON SET WITH MELLIEMEL!

PSYCH Recap
Season 2 - Episode 2: “65 Million Years”
Recap by: Mel

As usual, we open in 1987, where Mini-Gus walks into the classroom wearing a gigantic, hollow T-Rex head that he made. And since he’s, like, 8, you’d probably think it’s all ugly and messy and paper-mache-y and, like, brontosaurus-shaped, right? WRONG. IT’S PRETTY AND T-REX-SHAPED. I love Mini-Gus. Mini-Shawn made -ahem, more like bought- a T-rex, too, which is like eight inches tall and strapped to a remote-control car, and everyone forgets about Mini-Gus. Sad.

Present day, and Lassie is staring down some dude who finally confesses, and apparently this is his eight billionth confession in a row and all his po-po compadres are way proud of him. By the way, Lassie’s first name is CARLTON. As in The CARLTON Dance on ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’?! HA! Remember when they broke William Shatner’s tooth, and Carlton was all, “Don’t worry, Captain. We’ll get you to the dentist, WARP SPEED!” I love Carlton. Anyways, Shawn is feeling cast aside, and hits on Jules some, then follows Lassie to a crime scene on the beach. He sees the puncture wounds on the body, and does his spazzy and constipated psychic schtick, drawing a surprisingly well-shaded and happy-looking T-Rex portrait. Lassie, Jules, and Chief pretty much ignore him, which makes me a little sad. Segue to Gus, WHO IS VERY AND I MEAN VERY UPSET WITH SHAWN, and refuses to accompany him to the morgue to view Dead Punctured Guy.

Wow, we’re into the Top 10 America! So You Think You Can Dance is heating up and its time for the pairings to get a little remix and its time for the dancers to show us what they have when they perform solos each week.

If you want to know the couplings and routines for this coming Wednesday night’s performance, they are revealed after the jump.

As you know, Comic-Con is this coming Thursday and the following week I’ve got some traveling to do as well. That means lots of time on airplanes. To be exact, there are 4, 5 or 6 hour flights in the next two weeks and I need something to watch!

• The Starter Wife
• Bones (Season 1)
• Jericho (Finish Season 1)

As of today, July 23rd Harry Potter himself, actor Daniel Radcliffe is legal. Let the worshipping begin. Good lord, not so tweens just got excited and NAMBLA members just went limp.

The boys had a busy couple weeks. World Premieres of HP5, the release of Book 7, and a Bday on top of it. Hope that $50 million for the final two movies bought him some good times this past weekend.

I’m loving the new Harry Potter but please do not post anything about it on here. I’ll cut ya, put a hex on ya, send Looney Lovegood to your house, or assign Kreacher to you. I beg of you.

This weekend, TVGuide’s Pooper Scooper Michael Ausiello got to sit down with SUPERNATURAL Creator and Exec. Producer Eric Kripke to hash out some of the online rumors that are spreading.

It all began when casting of two female “regulars” was announced. Fans freaked the frak out! How could Kripke introduce two “love interests”? How can they mess up the dynamics of the show? How could they, how could they, how could they? I didn’t think anything because I wanted to know more about these girls. Who are these two women coming to possibly temp our beloved Winchester boys?

Ruby (played by Katie Cassidy) is a demon hunter who’s a bit of a loose cannon. Bela (love the name btw - played by Lauren Cohen) is a sort of demon arms dealer. She works in amulets and other magical trinkets on the black market.

So, what does Eric Kripke have to say about these girls and what does he have to say to all of us rabid fans?

Eric Kripke: First of all, I love our fans. I love them to death. I love how passionate they are. But they tend to worry unnecessarily. They tend to get stressed before they have a chance to judge the finished product. We are so conscious and aware of our fans. We’re making the show for the fans; we’re not making the show for the network. We would never do anything to betray them. I’m not saying we’re perfect. I’m not saying we don’t make mistakes. But we’re very conscious and aware. And when we do make mistakes, we course-correct. So if I can get any message to them, it’s, ‘Don’t worry. We’re making choices based on what’s best creatively for the show.

Kripke: …The trick, we feel, is to introduce them as fleshed-out characters with their own inner lives, and then see what develops. And the other thing is, the girls are very separate and very different. And very rarely are they in the same episode, because they’re each serving very different story lines. Ruby (Katie Cassidy) is this demon hunter, who is ruthless and a little crazy and rough around the edges, and doesn’t share the same moral conscience that either of the boys share. A little unhinged in that way. There’s going to be a big twist about Ruby very early on. As early as Episode 2 you’re going to learn something very fascinating about Ruby.

And what about Bela?
Kripke: Bela (Lauren Cohan) is actually something we never presented on Supernatural before, which is someone who lives in this world who actually isn’t a hunter. She’s a thief and a mercenary. And all of these amulets and magical objects that the boys are always stealing and using to fight creatures are actually worth a lot of money. And there’s someone to buy and sell them. And she’s really not interested in the altruistic or obsessed or revenge-minded motives of hunting. She’s interested in a free-market economy and making a buck. She’s in it for herself. That’s someone they’ve really never come across before. ‘I don’t really care if you stop that ghost, I want that amulet,’ which if she disappears with it, the boys are screwed.
