Hey guys,

How are you? Ready for the finale?

I feel like we're ready. We're as ready as we'll ever be. We definitely put the hours. We had 12-to-14-hour days every day. I had a little scare yesterday. My neck started to do a weird spasm. I'm trying to forget about it — mind over matter. It's not as bad as it was last time, but it's there. There are some moves that I'm doing in our freestyle ...

'Dancing with the Stars' Recap: The Performance Finale (BuddyTV) - 4 days ago
Finally.

Up to this point, the biggest surprise of Dancing with the Stars Season 16 has been how rigidly it has proceeded according to expectations: each elimination has been a predictable result of scores and charisma, with nary a bombshell in the bunch. That changes tonight: with a top four this close, banality is no longer an option.

This race is way too evenly matched to call, but that won't stop me from calling it: the Mirror Ball Trophy is going to Kellie. Jacoby has been fun, but his technical shortcomings have left him about a point below the others on average. Aly has shown incredible range and performance ability, but she doesn't command the same rabid fan base as an Olympian as her entertainment industry peers. Zendaya has often been toe-to-toe with Kellie, but the fact that she had prior professional dance experience has left a bad taste with some.

Kellie has Zendaya's skill, Aly's performance, and Jacoby's charisma all rolled into one, and I'm fairly comfortable saying that she has the best partner. Derek isn't just trying to win this thing; he's trying to push the very medium of three-minute reality show dance segments on a weekly basis, and nearly always succeeding. The trophy could very easily go to any one of these dancers, but in the interest of fostering discussion by taking a hard-line stand, I hereby declare Kellie to be the winner.

Oh yeah, there's still one more performance show left. Live blog starts now:

Fox's Glee will be a little less sweet next season now that Vanessa Lengies, who plays Sugar, has landed a regular role on the midseason ABC sitcom Mixology. "Getting to play Sugar Motta was one of the biggest opportunities of my life, and I met some of the most fantastic people, but I was being hired per episode," Lengies says about why she made the switch. "I loved getting to be there and dancing around, but I didn't really have much of an opportunity to act."

Justin Bieber took home two trophies at the Billboard Music Awards Sunday night, but he certainly wasn't a winner when it came to the audience vote.

The teen singer, who's been involved in a number of controversial incidents this year, was loudly booed when he accepted the Milestone Award (for "musical ingenuity and innovation," according to presenter CeeLo Green), the final award of the evening, beating out Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift. The award came after he had performed twice on the show.

The Monday Playlist: Mel Brooks on Masters, Finales (Rectify, Bates Motel), Motive (TVGuide) - 4 days ago

At 86, Mel Brooks is still the life of the party, a consummate ham and peerless joke-spinning storyteller. "I've come to stop the show," announces the irrepressible comic dynamo as he does just that, breaking into song mid-interview and reinforcing why PBS' American Masters titled its latest must-see career profile Mel Brooks: Make a Noise (Monday, check tvguide.com listings). His brilliant career in TV (Your Show of Shows, Get Smart), the movies and Broadway makes him an overdue American Masters subject, and his unflagging comic energy keeps everyone amused — including an intrusively visible camera crew. "I'm head over heels in love with myself," Brooks says, only half-joking.

Ask Matt: Upfront Fallout: 24 and "Event" Series, Parenthood, Bones, Wonderland (TVGuide) - 4 days ago

Send questions and comments to askmatt@tvguidemagazine.com and follow me on Twitter!

Question: I'm shocked and delighted by Fox's announcement about bringing back 24, but honestly, I think this points to the future of television. It's the same thing with The Following: Give us shorter seasons, TV Gods! Seriously, 22-episode seasons just don't work for so many shows, especially the serialized ones. How much filler was there in any given 24-episode season of real-time 24? A ton, inevitably. And every other heavily serialized show you can point to is eventually going to fall back on filler episodes, or extended (and frustrating) wheel-spinning, etc. It's just inevitable, and the best serialized shows are the ones that best manage this reality: for instance, The Vampire Diaries splits its season into three or four tightly focused mini-arcs that pack as much into each mini-arc as most shows cover in a whole season.

'Arrested Development' Cast Picks Their Favorite Moments (TVSquad) - 4 days ago

Ask any "Arrested Development" fan for their favorite moment and chances are they'll come up with the scene or joke in a matter of seconds. However, it's a little harder for the cast, who spent three years living and breathing the show, to pick just one.

Portia de Rossi, Lindsay Bluth Funke on "Arrested Development," told The Huffington Post that she didn't have a favorite episode, but there is a particular gag that comes to mind. "It was the entire episode where you were overhearing extremely intimate conversations and then it would pan out and you'd see they were in the boardroom with like 20 people just waiting for them to stop talking," the actress said in a phone interview. "The episode in the jail where they're talking about Buster and how horrible and terrible he is and he's sitting right there when the camera pans out. It's just silly things like that that are just so funny."

De Rossi has a soft spot for one particular character. "I just love Lucille. I just love that character so much," she said. "I mean, Lucille is just my favorite and some of my favorite lines are things that she said. She's just so fantastic."

Lucille Bluth, the matriarch of "Arrested Development," is played by Jessica Walter. She's known for not liking all of her children, boozing it up early in the morning and loving a certain private eye who has a tendency to show up in disguise. Walter told The Huffington Post that one of her favorite character moments was when Lucille got a facelift. "When I came out of makeup, I scared myself," she said in a phone interview. "It was so brilliantly done, the makeup."

In a Season 1 episode of "Arrested Development," Lucille Bluth found herself home alone without her son, Buster. "Oh gosh, I had so many wonderful scenes, it's hard to pinpoint. Another one was when Buster leaves her, and she's at home, drinking and eating cake, lying on the table, listening to music from 'Gypsy,'" she said.

Tony Hale, Buster Bluth who has an unusually close relationship with his mother, said one of his favorite moments came from the Season 1 episode "Public Relations."

"They said Buster was neither seen nor heard growing up," Hale told The Huffington Post via phone with a laugh. "And I loved that he was wearing a shirt that perfectly matched the wallpaper. He took it as far as his wardrobe. He was like, 'You're not even going to see my body. I'll be standing in front of you and you still won't see me.' He was very, very faithful to the title he was given of 'neither seen nor heard.' It was just a testament to how everybody on the show was on the same page. That was all wardrobe. Obviously the writers came up with it, but it was just kind of fun riding that wave. Just stuff like that was really hilarious and fun."


"Arrested Development" returns with new episodes on Netflix starting May 26.
