Our "Dancing with the Stars" correspondent Lenni G has thoughts on the latest dancer sent home from the show.

Lenni G: Really fantastic opening to the show last night featuring pros and the troupe in an "outer space" routine choreographed by Mark and Derek. The staging was amazing as was the dancing.

We also had entertainment from The Band Perry, Selena Gomez and Kerli. Yep, that Kerli! And Kerli's hit song also got the benefit of some great choreo from one of the best choreo people around, the incomparable Stacy Tookey who we first met on "So You Think You Can Dance."

On to the results - Kellie and Derek, Zendaya and Val, Jacoby and Karina, Aly and Mark, Sean and Peta, and Andy and Sharna were declared safe, leaving Ingo and Kym, Victor and Lindsay, and D. L. and Cheryl in jeopardy.

After Ingo and Kym went to safety, Victor and Lindsay (again) and D. L. and Cheryl (first time) were in the bottom two. And then, somewhat surprisingly, D. L. and Cheryl were eliminated from the competition. Have to say that, though his "dancing" never really improved from the first week, his attitude certainly did. Super turnaround, my friend, and, glad "you had a ball."

I'm really looking forward to next week when we have the first team dances. Team captains, Kellie and Zendaya, will each choose three other couples and then each team will dance together to either a paso doble or a samba. And, since it's Stevie Wonder week, the music for the paso will be "Higher Ground," and the music for the samba will be "Superstition."

Clearly, next week's show is appointment television!

Suburgatory (8pm, ABC) - Season 2 ends with two new episodes. At 8, George breaks the news to Tessa that he has sold their house. At 8:30, Shelia pushes a chastity campaign in Chatswin, and Tessa moves out when George buys Dallas her dream home.

Also, Lydia tracks John's kidnappers while becoming more intimate with an old friend and Sammy draws closer to robbers. Nothing is official, but it's looking like this could be the final season for "Southland" (several stars have signed up for new series). If it's really over, I'll miss it like crazy -- it's one of the absolute best shows on television -- but I'm also so grateful TNT picked it up after it was dumped by NBC.

Our "Dancing with the Stars" correspondent Lenni G has a recap of last night's show.

Lenni G:

As I said last week, this week's format was "side-by-side" which I was a bit confused about. Well, last night we learned that a star and his/her pro partner would be dancing "side-by-side" with a pro and his/her pro partner. Credit for this unique idea, which I thought worked well for some, not so much for others, goes to Coach Len.

Our homie, Kellie Pickler, was one of the stars who benefited from having a female pro on her team. She and Derek did a fox trot which was Kellie's first strictly "ballroom dance" of the season. She was obviously nervous and Derek was not happy with her in rehearsal. Pro Anna, dancing with Pro Henry, stepped in with some fabulous advice that resulted in a terrific performance.

Carrie Ann called Kellie a "million dollar dancer." Len said she turned the fox trot into the "hot" trot and put the "oo" in smooth. Bruno thought she had all the glamour and humor of Jean Harlow. I have to think that only 60-somethings and above -- and Bruno -- would know what a comparison to Jean Harlow meant but, as a 70-something myself, I can assure you that it was very good comparison. Judges scores - 9's from all three for a total of 27.

The hidden camera prank show has changed much since the days of "Candid Camera" and that's mostly because of "Punk'd". Now, Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg, the minds behind "Punk'd" have created "Who Gets the Last Laugh" (10 tonight, TBS). This time, instead of pranking celebrities, celebrities prank regular folk to win money for charity.

More specifically, three comedians or comic actors dream up pranks, then play them on unwitting folk. An audience votes by cell phone on which scenario they think is funniest. The winner gets to give $10,000 to a needy group.

Donald Faison ("Scrubs," "The Exes") hosts the trio; in the first few episodes, comedians include D.L. Hughley, Bill Bellamy, Andy Dick, Cheri Oteri, Aries Spears, Kunal Nayyar from "The Big Bang Theory" and Danny Masterson. ("The 70s Show" and TBS' "Men at Work").

I suspect the charitable aspect was put in place to offset the fact that some of the pranks are pretty mean; if a target starts to cry, the prank may have gone too far. That happens during one prank, in which the target, on the first day of a new job, loses $100,000.

That's the change I was talking about; TV pranks used to be something you could truly laugh at. Now they can be about laughing at someone's pain.

Each prank gives you a glimpse into each of these comics' sense of humor and sensibility. Bellamy's prank involves poop; Oteri has a naughty one that gets the target involved in cheating children, and then being confronted by their parents. That means most of the pranks aren't particularly funny, but some of them are pretty clever.

"Who Gets the Last Laugh?" won't be the pop phenom "Punk'D" was but at least you won't feel like the joke's on you.

I don't know if I'm a geek for liking "Defiance" (9 tonight, Syfy) or if I'm not enough of one to properly judge it. But I was entertained, and in the end, that's the point.

"Defiance" is the name of the city we call St. Louis. It's the town former Marine and wanderer Nolan (Grant Bowler) stumbles upon after he and his adopted daughter Irisa (Stephanie Leonidas) escape some thieving biker aliens.

OK, let's explain the alien thing. Apparently, in the near future, seven alien races come to Earth, sparking 30 years of war. Inexplicably, all the humans weren't wiped out. The post-war Earth, now forever altered, features aliens and humans trying to build new civilizations and peacefully co-exist. It doesn't always go well.

Nolan, a hero in one of the great battles, has adopted Irisa, an Irathient, and they go along making money however they can, unless Nolan blows it on women or in some reckless way. When they get to Defiance, they're broke, so they've got to stay around awhile.

That puts them in the orbit of Amanda (Julie Benz), the new mayor of the mining town; Datak (Tony Curran), an alien mob boss and his manipulative wife Stahma (Jaime Murray); Rafe (Graham Greene), Datak's archenemy and the owner of the town's largest mine; and Kenya (Mia Kirshner), the town's madam.

"Mining town" and "madam" should give you a clue that "Defiance" is essentially a Western and that's not the only classic the show borrows from. Shakespeare gets some love in a few ways; for one, Rafe's daughter and Datak's son are secretly involved.

No, "Defiance" isn't original in terms of plot or character. Certainly, the conceit of aliens and humans trying to co-exist has been done before. The originality is supposed to come from the fact that it's both a TV show and an online game that are interconnected. What happens on the TV show causes a shift in the game. Of course, I won't be playing the game (and neither will most of you reading, I suspect) so that doesn't have anything to do with me.

What does matter is that the pilot of "Defiance" was fun; there's action, humor, story lines with potential. Bowler is a fine anti-hero, Curran and Murray, intriguing villains, and Benz works as the town's the heart and good soul.

Unlike it's plot, "Defiance" may not be building a whole new sci-fi world, but it does a good job refreshing some old themes.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!

It's the eighth leg, and because they won the seventh leg, Bates & Anthony get to leave for Zurich, Switzerland first. Anthony notes how great it has been partnering with his brother Anthony because they didn't get to play hockey together that much when they were young.

Because of the fast forward from last week, when they leave they are so far ahead, no team could possibly catch them without their total collapse. So of course, the plane to Zurich doesn't leave until the next day, ensuring all the teams will be on the same flight.

Our foreshadowing moment comes tonight via the Mullet & Wynona. They say that being on the Race hasn't pulled them apart; after a rough start they are friends, not fussin' and fightin' anymore. We'll see about that.

After the plane, the teams must travel by train to a town; everybody gets on that too. While on board, the Blondes and Bates & Anthony joke about being boyfriends and girlfriends; it's their two-week anniversary. Anthony points out they haven't gotten any action, not even a kiss. Exactly what kind of action do you usually get after two weeks, Anthony?

At the next stop, the teams can't get the clue until the next morning, so all the teams are together again. When they get the clue it says take another train.

That train takes the teams to the base of a mountain and a meeting with a bunch of St. Bernards with those cute little barrels around their necks. The teams have to travel by train with the dogs to the highest railroad station in Europe, deliver the dogs and search for the next clue.

Bates says their dog isn't friendly. Seems St. Bernards are a bit stubborn. The Blondes find that out when they can't get their dog on the train without Anthony's help.

The next clue leads to a roadblock. One team member must climb across a high and very vertical rock wall, pick up the Travelocity gnome and then climb into a window with the gnome. Bates is thrilled; continuing on his quest to get some sort of endorsement deal, he says he loves the gnome and can't wait to be with him.

Just a thought: Bates & Anthony Battaglia, the new Bachelors?

Bates takes on the roadblock, and although he says it's kind of high and the highest he's ever climbed is to change a light bulb, he manages to do the task pretty quickly and Bates & Anthony are in first place. Their reward is the chance to get on another train to get the next clue.

The next clue leads to the switchback, which is a task that's been done on the show before. In this case, it's the infamous cheese-and-the-hill task, the one that left many teams rolling and falling and getting run over by wheels of cheese as the locals laughed.

This time, it could prove even funnier since the hill is covered in slippery snow. The teams must use a sled to transport 200 pounds of cheese (or four wheels) to the bottom of the hill, and then transport it to a shed. While Ms. Newlywed slips and slides and holds up the other teams, Bates & Anthony make it to the top quickly. Guess all that time on ice has been useful. They also come up with the idea of letting the cheese on the sled push them down the hill rather than trying to push the cheese. The method works really well; they get the next clue and head to the pit stop in first place.

It's a hat trick for Bates & Anthony; their third win in a row. This time they win a trip to Bora Bora. Bates is shown wearing a Hurricanes shirt.

While all that was happening, the Mullet is transforming from lovable hairdo to evil mop top. Wynona has moved from words of conciliation to 'Screw him!' because she can't run as fast as the others, putting she and the Mullet 12 seconds behind the other teams (she counted), and the Mullet chiding her to tears as a form of motivation. Later, when Wynona has to cross the rock wall, the Mullet tells her that if something should happen he won't remarry the first month after her death. When Wynona struggles, then makes her way across the wall, he doesn't have praise for her efforts. Instead, after she says she wishes he would say 'good job,' he says "Good job, I'm glad you made it. The kids need a mama." And then, when they are doing the cheese task, he delivers this gem: "I can't do both of these sleds and your ass," which, out of context, can have all sorts of meanings, none of them very nice. It's clear that the one job he didn't have at Walmart was greeter.

To make matters worse, Wynona comes up with the idea to roll the cheese down the hill rather than use the sled. It works well; they finish quickly. And when the YouTube stars get lost on the way to the pit stop, it looks like Wynona & the Mullet are going to steal the last spot.

But the rolling cheese idea is a violation; the rule was the sled had to be used. Wynona & the Mullet get a 30-minute penalty. Then they get eliminated.

The Mullet says he's proud of her and says they are glad to have seen the sites they did. Oh, now he says he's proud. Wynona, it's time to upgrade to a Target man.
