"Jersey Shore" airs Thursdays at 10/9c, but you don't have to wait till then to check out the raw footage. Throughout the week, we'll be sifting through the Jersey Shore Dailies to make sure you're getting your fill of the crew in Florence. Check out the latest featured clip below.

What do you get when you put four guys in a car for five hours? Girls!

Vinny, Pauly, Ronnie and Mike are tired of male bonding on the way to Riccione in this "Jersey Shore" Daily, and decide to kill some time by imitating their other-gendered housemates. Who ate my cheese? Will you help me with these bags? How am I supposed to get to my bed with all of my sh** on top? Man, these broads are needy, and you just KNOW they're going to have to stop to pee eight or nine more times.

Check out the video clip below to see how the guidos would fare if they ever decided to take on an amateur drag night. (And just so we're clear on the matter, they weren't talking crap behind anyone's back.Okkkkay?)

As far as "Jersey Shore" pranks are concerned, the cheese-between-the-sheets gimmick was pretty good, and the accidental trip to New York was pure mastery, but Italy has seen nary a sample of such tomfoolery...until now!

Deena is the guinea pig of an all-new installment of overseas trickery as Vinny and Pauly decide to throw all of her sh** (and a couch) on top of her bed! OK, it's not the apex of innovation, but it definitely puts the meatball in between a rock couch and a hard place when she's trying to get ready to head out on the town.

In this sneak peek of Thursday's all-new episode, Team FPC has fled the scene, but Deen is quick to identify Vinny as a party to the prank and corners him in the bathroom to shame him for his bad behavior. Ultimately, though, it doesn't help ease the task at hand--she must still scale the tower of her belongings to locate her outfit's finishing touches. And that's when...well, you'll see. Check out The Tale of Meatball Mountain below.

This deep into "Death Valley," it's apparent that the officers of the Undead Task Force are more likely to stick their fists through a zombie's head than wrap their arms around a significant other. When the threat of the living undead never dies, sex can only ever come in second place. Until tonight! Duh Duh Duhhhh...

What can we tell you? A UTF officer will be one-half of a quite passionate kiss on tonight's episode! What more can we tell you? It will be with someone of the same sex (and state of metamorphosis, we think)!

With absolutely ZERO insight into the love lives of these six people (other than the fact that Pierce is willing to get down with a favorite female/werewolf porn star, and Stubeck is married--but hey, you never know) who do you think will make a concerted hop onto the LGBT train? Tune in at 10:30/9:30c to find out, and take our poll below!

Lissa had a tough episode last week on "Awkward." Jake dished about kissing Jenna in front of the entire school, she didn't get her no-carb chocolate ice cream and then she got dumped. Ugh. Sounds like our favorite airhead could use a few life changes after such a bummer series of events. Luckily, we're here to help, and what better way than with a 'Carefrontation' letter? As some wise person once said (Matty?), "You've got to be cruel to be kind."

Dear Lissa,

As you are now, you could disappear and everyone would go, "Hey! Where did that blonde ditzy girl who lost her boyfriend to Jenna Hamilton go?" If you want to be remembered as a real person and not just as Sadie's goofy sidekick, you need to take control of your life.

1.) Stand up to Sadie! This meanie is not as tough as she seems. Start thinking for yourself (we know it's hard), and you may find things working out more often.

Even Jenna Hamilton is cringing at this one.

A handful of high school students choke on their first shot at a driver's license, but most can say they left the parking lot. Ashley Rickards, sadly, cannot, which makes her "When I Was 17" bonus scene confession all the more "Awkward."

In this video, the actress behind the character behind "The Invisible Girl" blog reveals her deepest, darkest, driver's side secret--her test's instructor gave her a big, fat "F" before she ever hit the open road. Ashley claims the man told her she was headed straight for oncoming traffic, something she adamantly denies. Hey, at least she got the prized plastic eventually, numbering those dreadful days of getting dropped off by her mother.

+ Check out Ashley recounting her four-wheeled faux pas and tell us if your driver's test left you with road rash.

The life of a werewolf comes with constant inconveniences--clogged shower drains, pesky rabies shots and a strange attraction to cats, just to name a few. But the biggest pain about beastlyhood is getting locked in the house--as enforced by the law--during a full moon in "Death Valley." When the only sights to see for a night are the four indestructible walls that surround the man/beast hybrids, basic creature comforts are essential to keep them from ripping their fur out. So, here are five things we think every werewolf needs to stay free of freak-outs during the big night in.

1. Scratching Post: A full-blown werewolf always seems itching to attack, and a scratching post means no living thing will have to suffer for a bout of aggression. And it's got to be good for the nails.

Kristin Cavallari gives "Dancing With The Stars" partner Mark Ballas a peck on the cheek after practice.

After "Dancing With The Stars" standout Mark Ballas split with girlfriend Pia Toscano last week, the rumors that he and partner Kristin Cavallari were dating circulated about as quickly as the couple's feet during their impressive first routine on last week's episode. For K-Cav, though, the gossip wildfires are business as usual.

"I kind of expect [the dating rumors], to be honest," she told People. "But that's what happens when you put two people together."

It probably doesn't help that those two people gave the paps a clear shot of a lips-to-cheek farewell. Think there's any merit to the idea that she and he are them? Hard to say, but make sure to keep your eye on their body language during next week's episode, as we hear the quickstep is a total tell of a pair's chemistry. That and, you know, if they kiss in the parking lot again.

Glad we can put this one to rest! After successfully rekindling the friendship flame between Tamara and Jenna, Ming faced the unfortunate task of trying to explain what a "sex touch" was, a term she had used to lure J and T to the same place under false pretenses on "Awkward." Thankfully, Jessica Lu, who plays the perpetually ski-capped Ming, broke it down for us and now we...think...we know?

JWOWW also took to Twitter to clear the air about her bleeding feet--which are healed, thankfully, after they and she chased Jionni through the streets of Florence on "Jersey Shore." The "Hills" were alive with the sound of social media, as well, as Whitney Port alerted followers to how she fared during a trip to London, Kristin Cavallari explained the science behind her "Dancing With The Stars" glow and Spencer Pratt, a new USC student, revealed that he--for what we imagine is the first time ever--was the first student to class.

He was only in Italy for six hours before he decided to ditch his girlfriend during Episode 8 of "Jersey Shore," but that was apparently time enough for the great Jionni to take Twitter by storm, on which he, himself, was a trending topic until early Friday morning. Maybe he should consider throwing his jacket Snooki's way and storming out of clubs while still jet-lagged more often!

If Snionni's phone calls are considered, we can't say it's a huge surprise that Jionni made a splash when he finally touched down in Italy. And things looked like they were going well while he and Snooks caught up, hugged and kissed (and smushed). But when Snooki's dress went up, and Jionni's temper spiked, so did his popularity in the social media universe. Good or bad, here is what you had to say about the guy Snooks said she wanted to marry:

"Jionni had every right to walk out! Snooki gone get enough of acting like she run the world! #jerseyshore #jerzday" -- @QueenSharion

Every Friday we thumb through your comments from the most-talked-about post of the week and highlight each side of the argument. Check out the latest That's What You Said below and make sure to share your own opinion!

Farrah once carried unbreakable conviction that she and her daughter would never be separated. So, understandably, viewers were a little shocked when the teen mom decided to move to Florida without little Sophia on this week's finale. Further, Remote Control readers weren't sure exactly how to feel, and a recent poll asking if Farrah's choice was warranted or selfish was almost split down the middle. When therapy, a rocky family dynamic and school are involved, things aren't so black and white.

Because a simple "she should've" or "she shouldn't have" hardly does such a complicated topic justice, here's a glimpse into your take on whether Farrah should have left Sophia behind:

Remote Control:
"I think Farrah should stay in Iowa and get her degree elsewhere. Sophia is what matters now and not Farrah's own personal wants and desires. Sophia needs to be in a stable environment and not state-hopping." -- Missy
