'Pants' Poll: Does Partying Your Blues Away Ever Work?

Posted 2/16/12 11:30 pm EST by in I Just Want My Pants Back, Top TV Shows

Ever since Brett deemed Tina unfit for pre-midnight activities at James Franco's ravioli party, she's had a difficult time both coming down from her carb high and dealing with the loss of her booty call. And since misery loves company (and young Brooklynites), she found comfort in her best friend, Jason, who lost a job, internship and decent pair of denim all in what seemed like the same week. During tonight's episode of "I Just Want My Pants Back," the unhappy twosome tried to drown their sorrows in a joint and jams, but just when it seemed as though their mental escape was coming together perfectly, a bachelorette with penis straws ruined everything.

+ Jason and Tina had a good idea to go out and occupy their mopey minds, but Tina's sorority sister threw a wrench in their plan. Can you ever really party your sadness away, or was their gloom unavoidable? Take the poll!

Does partying ever really cure sadness?

  • Absolutely! It's the best medicine.
        41%
  • Nope. You're always bummed after the night ends.
        59%

Kenny Santucci Offers A Creative Cure For Snooki's UTI [Video]

Posted 2/16/12 10:55 pm EST by in Jersey Shore, Top TV Shows

After the Chef Boyar-Meatballs finished baking an apology cake for Danny during tonight's episode of "Jersey Shore," Snooki took a time-out from the kitchen to address her womanly problem in the bathroom. The culprit, of course, was that same pesky UTI she's been dealing with all summer, but we were beside ourselves when Snooks revealed that this was her 10th infection in the past year! Girlfriend needs to put down the pickles and start sucking on some cranberry supplements.

During her trip to the clinic, the physician handed her a prescription for antibiotics, and she left with firm orders to limit her boozing to just one alcoholic beverage per night, which she then completely ignored. In the below clip from this week's "Jersey Shore Hook-Up," host Kenny Santucci puts Snooki on the spot and asks--quite boldly, we might add--why she gets so many friggin' UTIs. "Ear sex," she jokingly (or maybe not) responds, before explaining that neglecting her postcoital scrub-downs is the real cause. That, and the fact that she really likes her alcohol, which blocks the medicine's effectiveness. "You should've taken some of the booze and just poured it right on the UTI," Dr. Santucci suggests. Watch the video to see if she considers his advice.

Chelsea Heads Toward Her 20s With Renewed Confidence [Bonus Scene]

Posted 2/16/12 12:02 pm EST by in Teen Mom 2, Top TV Shows

For the first half of this season's "Teen Mom 2," it truly seemed as though Chelsea's progress in life was at a standstill. She reinjured her knee, was forced to spend a lot of time off her feet and was just generally stuck in an unproductive rut. But something finally clicked, and she found the drive to get back on track. The aspiring hairstylist enrolled in a GED prep program and passed the first test, and even got a job at a local tanning salon.

In this bonus scene from the finale, Chelsea proudly sits down with her friend Erika to update her on all of the exciting news. The young mom finally feels good about herself and is relieved to be moving in a positive direction. While it looked like Chelsea was leaning toward getting back with Adam at the end of the episode, we hope that doesn't sidetrack her from completing all of her goals.

'Exes' Poll: Should Paula And Ty Hook Up?

Posted 2/15/12 11:00 pm EST by in The Challenge, Top TV Shows

Paula may have kicked off tonight's episode of "Exes" by playing matchmaker to Camila, telling her that she and Johnny Bananas made a cute couple, but she probably wasn't expecting ol' JB to return the favor. While the pent-up Challengers were bumping and grinding at the local watering hole, Paula rubbed her beer goggles long enough to discover that Ty, the guy she'd been dancing with, was "not ugly to look at." Their flirting piqued our interest as it did Johnny's, and he quickly dared Ty to bury his face in Paula's rack. So, as the green strobe lights flashed and Diem body-rolled for her partner, Paula stood still and allowed Ty to take a shot out of her tatas.

+ Paula has a boyfriend back home, but do you think she should forget about him and give in to temptation? Take the poll, then check out a clip from this week's "Ex-ual Tension," where Ty and Paula get a chance to clear the air. Paula justifies their behavior by saying that Ty stopped being such a sucky person for once and she was enjoying his company. Be sure to watch the second video, though, because Paula confesses that her boyfriend specifically asked her NOT to get in bed with Ty prior to coming on the show. (He didn't say anything about body shots though.)

Should Ty and Paula hook up already?

  • No, she has a boyfriend!
        61%
  • Yes! They totally want each other.
        39%

Paula Calls Robin Cray-Cray For Getting All Undead [Video]

Posted 2/15/12 10:59 pm EST by in The Challenge, Top TV Shows

As the "Exes" cast glued on their finest whiskers and grabbed empty Sparkletts jugs to use as drums for their inaugural animal party, veteran player Robin was more interested in dressing up for a different sort of occasion--Halloween, perhaps. Her costume of choice involved head-to-toe black fabric, intense eye makeup and a bit of fake blood to boot. "I'm a f***ing vampire, bitches," she said when her fellow partygoers questioned how her getup fit in with their wild theme. Catfight!

In a clip from this week's "Ex-ual Tension," Paula, Cara Maria, Leroy and Ty relive that night and say that Robin's blood-sucking ensemble wasn't surprising to them at all. Paula just comes out and puts it bluntly: "Robin's crazy." But Ty tries to defend the immortal in question, stating that the two shared some heart-to-hearts while in the Dominican Republic, and he felt connected to her in a different sort of way. They talked about California, or something.

Snooki Meets Fellow MTV Star And Jersey Girl, Angela Simmons [Photo]

Posted 2/15/12 3:58 pm EST by in Jersey Shore, Top TV Shows

Angela Simmons and Snooki demonstrate MTV's far-reaching family tree.

This morning, as we were deleting reading all of our emails, we came across this darling photo of Snooki and former "Run's House" resident Angela Simmons. Snooks, who was fresh off her role as The Insider's investigative Grammy correspondent, grabbed a chair next to her MTV cousin during last night's bebeBLACK show at New York Fashion Week. Was this an act of a smart seating guru, or were these two Jersey girls (yup, Ang is from The Garden State, too!) desperate to compare notes about the gorillas in attendance? Who knows, but their outfits certainly complement each other.

Could this be the start of a beautiful friendship? Let's review the facts: Both gals apparently like cobalt, two-toned 'dos and Bebe, so it seems they have similar taste. As expert photo examiners, we think Snooki and Angela have enough in common to warrant a joint shopping spree at the mall. Wonder what Rev would have to say about that...

5 DIY Fetes As Obscure As James Franco's Ravioli Party

Posted 2/15/12 2:08 pm EST by in I Just Want My Pants Back, Top TV Shows

Similar to the way bodegas are unique to the New York City landscape, DIY parties like James Franco's ravioli-making shindig are equally as representative of the culture in Brooklyn. Having a hard time understanding why anyone (here's looking at Jason and Tina from "I Just Want My Pants Back") would attend such a random event? Well, aside from getting the chance to stuff their faces for free, the experience offers something different from the average night out at a bar. And in Brooklyn, different is the only way to be. Here, five other quirky fêtes the borough's cool kids have been known to throw.

Rubulad Party
Get invited to one of these bad boys and you better come with an open mind because the food is sourced straight from the garbage. Dumpster-diving get-togethers are all the rage for the freegan community!

Water Tasting
Make a date to hydrate! This epicurean adventure helps guests navigate their way around a variety of H20 brands such as Figi and Evian. Partygoers put their taste buds to the test by drinking from label-free bottles and trying to guess which is which.

Film Projector Screenings
Got some spare wall space? This makeshift movie party is quite cozy, even though image quality can get a little shoddy. Be ready to fight for that Pendleton Woolen Mills blanket though, as it's unlikely there's enough to go around.

'Teen Mom 2' Poll: Should Leah And Corey Have Tried To Save Their Marriage?

Posted 2/14/12 11:30 pm EST by in Teen Mom 2, Top TV Shows

No matter how much we rooted for Leah and Corey, tonight's season finale of "Teen Mom 2" saw their marriage officially come undone. When Corey read in the local paper that Leah had filed for divorce, the reality of the situation finally set in for him. Everything began to move in fast motion, and before we knew it, the young parents were divvying up their belongings. After a tense discussion about who should get ownership of the washer and dryer, Leah found herself all alone, sitting on the floor of the trailer in which her once happy family recently celebrated Christmas together.

Do you think Leah and Corey should have tried to make their marriage work, or was there nothing left to say or do? Take the poll, then check out a clip from this week's "Teen Mom 2 After Show," where Leah tells SuChin Pak she felt like she had no control over the way things were going, and if given the chance to do it over she would stay. Unfortunately, neither of them could swallow their pride long enough to hit the pause button as it was happening.

Should Leah and Corey have tried to save their marriage?

  • Yes, they just gave up.
        76%
  • No, Leah cheated. It was clearly over.
        24%

Chelsea Longs For The Day When She No Longer Loves Adam [Video]

Posted 2/14/12 11:27 pm EST by in Teen Mom 2, Top TV Shows

Chelsea's been focused on passing her GED and doing well at work, but during tonight’s season finale of "Teen Mom 2," she got thrown off course when she spotted Adam at a car show. Seeing him made her vulnerable, and the idea of repressing feelings for him just seemed impossible. When Adam came to pick up their daughter days later, Chelsea caved and agreed to hang out with him, excited about the possibilities.

In the below clip from tonight's "Teen Mom 2 After Show," Chelsea tells SuChin Pak that she hadn't seen Adam in months before bumping into him at the car show, but right away she felt butterflies. Despite Adam's predictable behavior of coming in and out of her life, and the fact that he never delivers in the way she hopes, Chelsea continues to give him opportunities. "I know I'm going to find a great guy and [Adam's] going to wake up one day and be so sad," she explains. "That's why I'm giving him chances--take it now, one day you're going to regret it."

Check out the video to hear more from Chelsea on her struggle to get over Adam, and share your own advice for her in the comments.

The 3-Second Rule Doesn't Apply To Team Meatball's Munchies [Bonus Scene]

Posted 2/14/12 2:59 pm EST by in Jersey Shore, Top TV Shows

Ever spotted a squirrel at the base of a Spruce tree, foraging and hiding its nuts in the ground? A bushy, disproportionate tail flops around like a golden retriever's while its tiny little head remains still. Why are we getting all Animal Planet on you? Because in the "Jersey Shore" Episode 6 bonus scene below, Deena and her jovial meatball-in-crime behave like a pair of squirrel monkeys in the wild.

Take a look at the clip, in which Deena rips open a highly pressurized bag of potato chips and stands motionless as each innocent grease wafer crashes to the floor. In Seaside Heights, the 3-second rule does not apply to snack foods, so instead of eagerly gathering all of her munchies and placing them back into their bag, Snooki joins her on the ground for an impromptu picnic. (Guess if you can leave a UTI untreated, surely you have no probs eating off a hardwood floor coated in days-old Ron Ron Juice.)
