Tonight the top 8 dancers performed on season 7 of So You Think You Can Dance. Alex Wong was sidelined because of a ruptured Achilles tendon, so he will automatically be in the bottom three this week.

What did you think of tonight's performances? Who do you think did the best? Who's going home tomorrow night?
Man, I love pizza, and I am well aware that the ooey, gooey slices I see on television commercials are never what actually shows up delivered to my door. Apparently some people are not so pizza savvy, so to clear up any confusion the folks at Domino's Pizza have produced a behind-the-scenes look at just how they make those perfect pies on TV.
"You know those beautiful, sizzling pizzas on TV, with the perfectly placed pepperoni and the symmetrically melted cheese? Fake. The golden crust? Fake. All of it: fake, fake, fake. As reported by the blog Gawker, the behind-the-scenes commercial shows the multitudes of people with titles like "key grip" and un-food-like tools like tweezers that it takes to style the food for its closeup."
Check out the video:
I find the whole idea of food styling to be fascination, but the hottest piece of this video was Margaret, the professional hand model. Listening to her describe how to do the "perfect cheese pull" is magical.
Here's a fun way to ease yourself back into the work week after a long weekend that may be challenging for even the biggest Seinfeld fan.

Hey, people! Posting may be a little light over the long weekend and into next week because I am undergoing to nightmarish task of moving.
It's going to be 95 degrees in NYC this weekend, perfectly illustrating how hellish moving can be! The good news is that I'm moving to a beautiful block in a very cool new apartment. Here's a sneak peek:
Every Friday between Memorial Day and Labor Day I'm going to be featuring guest bloggers as a part of my "Summer Fridays" series. This week's entry comes from a fellow television-obsessed fan like me, Matt A. who takes on an imagined look into the future of some beloved TV characters.
After Sex and The City 2 left me feeling violated, I began to wonder the fates of other beloved characters from television shows long since gone. Where exactly are they now? I mean, when Sex and the City went off the air in 2004, I instantly thought, "Abu Dhabi! Clearly what is next for these women is to have comic hijinks in Abu Dhabi!" As burkas were the most logical progression for the girls of SATC, I thought it would be interesting to imagine where life took some other television icons from dearly departed shows.
Saved by the Bell
After getting married, Zach convinced Kelly that they should become swingers. They’re into threesomes and swapping partners… unless they're named Jeff and they're the manager of The Max. Slater became morbidly obese and is now the spokesperson for Alli and the jheri curl. Jessie never got into Stanford because she became addicted to caffeine pills and failed her math test. She currently lives in Las Vegas under the pseudonym "Nomi Malone." Lisa stars in Bravo's The Real Housewives of Bayside. Her new single, "The Sprain (Injury Is Learned)" hits iTunes next week. Screech never left town. Yeah, he's that sad pathetic guy who stayed in town in order to live out his glory days, which sadly for Screech, involved stealing Betty Crocker’s spaghetti sauce recipe. He can be seen at the local bar, humming "Friends Forever" under his breath and drinking alone. Tori became a lesbian and I dunno… changed her name to Kara Dioguardi so she could ruin some other show.
