Watch with Kristin

Andrew Eccles/BRAVO

Welcome back to Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel's exclusive blog about The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Bethenny's blogging exclusively for E! Online every week, dishing about the craziness that goes down with these Jersey girls. Here's her new installment, for last night's "Lost Footage" episode.

Take it away, Bethenny...

________________

This might possibly be the best episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey ever. I think it is because we got to see the ladies interact with their families more, and in completely organic situations. Just really enjoyable and fun to watch!

With that said, here I go again with my schizophrenic analysis of Teresa and Gia with regard to being a stage mom. Lip glaaaawsss and hot pants? Truth be told: They both love the attention. Gia could be the future Italian Shirley Temple. I made my own doctor's appointments at the age of 7, so I am not one to talk. It all seems a bit JonBenét to me.

Seriously, this is not just a big plug for our network. The Soup is...happiness.

It's no secret that we here at Watch With Kristin are a bit fanatical about good TV, and we tend to make our love of certain things widely known (think of Kristin's future husbands or Lost, etc.), so today we're here to hard-sell you on a show you are...no doubt already aware of: E!'s The Soup.

Our obsession with The Soup is partly the result of our undying love of resident E! stud Joel McHale, but it's also quite simply because of the greatness of what they're doing over there. And while we do happen to have inside knowledge of and/or the privilege of knowing the extremely hard-working people behind the scenes, we can only stress to you that that inside knowledge makes us think the show is that much more incredible.

So are you already an avid Soup watcher?

Do your Friday nights revolve around a hearty bowl of Chat Stew?

No? Then you are absolutely missing out on one of the best TV shows around. Read on to find out why you should watch and see some of what you've been missing!

Ugh. Bad news...

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Maura Tierney needs an "eight-week medical evaluation" of some kind. (NBC: "We are unable to release further details and ask that you respect her privacy at this time.")

This means that Maura's upcoming NBC drama, Parenthood, produced by Ron Howard and Jason Katims and costarring Peter Krause and Mae Whitman, will be pushed to midseason. Mercy, the Michelle Trachtenberg series about nurses, will premiere in Parenthood's place.

But the schedule switching is obviously not the point. Maura Tierney is a visibly awesome woman whom we have loved since NewsRadio and all the way through ER, and whatever she's going through right now sounds awful.

Hopefully, this will turn out to be nothing, and Maura will be back to full capacity as soon as humanly possible.

After a break (argh!) for the July Fouth holiday, HBO's cult-hit drama True Blood returns this Sunday with a brand-new ep, and to celebrate, we've got a veritable bloodbath of dish.

Read on to see two sneak peeks of Sunday's ep, and check out three exclusive new True Blood interviews, including a chat with breakout star Deborah Ann Woll and a talk with hilarious series creator Alan Ball, who shares some awesome wisdom with us, including, "If you're a vampire, you're not going to want an all-white house."

Megaceleb Katie Holmes is guesting on So You Think You Can Dance in two weeks in support of the newly established Dizzy Feet Foundation. But how did the "Get Happy" performance come to be, and what inspired someone to ask alleged prisoner of Hollywood Katie Holmes to perform a classic song by alleged prisoner of Hollywood Judy Garland?

Well, we just spoke with SYTYCD judge Tyce Diorio about the number he choreographed for Katie, and he told us all about his true inspiration...

The Tabitha- and Napoleon-choreographed "Seven Nation Army" group dance that kicked off tonight's So You Think You Can Dance top 12 elimination show was enough to make a girl pledge allegiance to the White Stripes.  (Wow!)

Sadly, it wasn't all zippy numbers—we also lost two well-regarded dancers. Who went home and why? We've got the scoop, straight from the set...

Oh noes!

Are Denise (Catherine Bell) and Frank Sherwood (Terry Serpico)—our favorite couple on Lifetime's military melodrama Army Wives—really, truly over? Now that the divorce papers are signed and Denise has found a new gig in stupid Colorado, fans are asking, "Are Denise and Frank done? Are the Sherwoods leaving the show?"

Well, we just chatted exclusively with Ms. Catherine Bell herself, and she gave us the scoop on her future with the series and what's really in store for Frank and Denise!

Seriously, the Entourage boys are finally back. Promise.

With last season having been (dare we say it?) a bit lackluster, we know this might be hard to believe, but on our honor, cross our hearts and hope to die, Entourage is back to the roots that made it irresistible in its heyday—remember way back in 2004?

If you want a quick overview of how Entourage has bounced back, think of the good ol' days when the HBO hit was a guys club, where Ari Gold's fast-talking rants had you rolling on the floor laughing and four Brooklyn boys took Hollywood by storm.

Check out your first sneak peek above and keep reading for two more. Plus, find out what Vinnie Chase, E, Turtle and Drama are up to this year...

So You Think You Can Dance is officially getting brutal. The newest couple, Kayla and Kupono, came on strong during the top 12 competition, making it even harder to decide among the remaining dancers, including the five couples that have been together since day one.

Want to know what happened on tonight's performance show, including what you couldn't see on TV? We've got your rundown right here...

The news of Andrea Bowen returning to Desperate Housewives for the season-six premiere is sparking debate that her homecoming means Susan Mayer (Teri Hatcher) is at the altar, behind the veil and getting married to Mike Delfino (James Denton).

Spoiler Alert: We're giving you every chance not to peek inside at the evidence we've compiled because all signs point to one Wisteria Lane resident over the others.

Here are the five reasons to support who we think is under the veil...

At last night's So You Think You Can Dance competition taping in Hollywood, executive producer and judge Nigel Lythgoe told the crowd that season-three star Travis Wall (who was sitting in the audience) and many other standouts from seasons past would be doing guest performances on the 100th episode of the show, airing Thursday, July 23. And that got us thinking...

If all the dancers from SYTYCD seasons one through four were compared, who would stand out as the best? Forget "America's favorite dancer" for a second. In terms of raw talent, training, technique and sheer star power, which dancer is the very best of all?

Two shows down and only 50 more to go on the American Idols Live Tour 2009. Starting today, we'll be catching up with each of the American Idol top 10 once a week to get the lowdown on the tour.

Anoop Desai, who came in sixth, kicks things off with a chat about the tour's first stop in Portland, Ore., on July 5.

What was the vibe before the first show?
It was sort of an eerie calm. I was more anxious than I was nervous. Once I got out there onstage, the energy of the crowd kept me going. It was easy to perform for everyone because they really want to hear you. To stand in front of that many people and be appreciated and do well was just great. We're lucky our first show went really well.

Who had the most preshow jitters?
I know Kris was pretty nervous right before he went onstage. I think we're all learning how to channel it in a very positive way now. I get nervous, but I'm more excited.

Did you go online and read the reviews or look up the YouTube videos of your performance after the show?
Yeah, I think most of us did. Luckily, people seemed to really like it. I think in all these shows we're as eager to see the YouTube videos of ourselves as everybody else. We want to see our performances, see what we did right or wrong.
