I Want to Work for Diddy (VH1) 9:00 PM EDT
This week, the remaining eleven assistants have to find a series of markers after being dropped in the middle of the woods. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we'll get to see Kim's claims that she would have been able to stay on her feet if she had been in Georgette's shoes (I hope she doesn't turn out to be one of those obnoxious contestants that the show keeps coming up with excuses to keep). And be sure to watch for gay contestant Rob to share some inside dish on the episode later this week when he recaps it from his perspective.

The Mole (ABC) 10:00 PM EDT
Judging from the ratings and the save our show campaign, I guess I'm the only one still watching ... but tonight's finale will finally reveal the Mole and include the usual reunion so that everyone who previously got kicked off the show — including gay contestant Bobby — can scream, "Ah, I knew it!" I keep wavering between Mark and Craig as my Mole pick and considering my record (which includes picking Heather in season two and Kathy Griffin during the first celebrity season) chances look good for it to be Nicole.

    Not quite alone

    Just to let you know, I'm the other person still watching the Mole.

    Us too

    We're still obsessed with The Mole. I'm REALLY curious to see if they touch on Bobby's bizarre performance. 

    To quote Austin Powers, "Moley-moley-mole!" Can't wait till tonite!

    I've been watching too. Late-comer here

    I actually think the show is kind of cool in its own way as the contestants are DOING something other than just rag on one another. I do wish (and maybe I am missing an element of the show) that the show would give us some insight as to who The Mole could be based on results of tests or something as it would make me even more interested. I am going for Mark being the guilty party, but if I were casting the show, I would have made him the mole. Strangely enough, I was rooting for Nicole or the loud mouth New Yorker to take it all as I think I see some coolness beyond their game play. Bobby was tragic but maybe we'll find out that he has some unknown gay-malaise that prevented him from moving ;-)

    It's too bad that I came to the party late and even missed the first episode as that jump looked cool. That's a show that I could do, again if it were not televised. Guillermo's Media Guillotine: Entertainment, journalism, politics, and popular culture.
