"Never, in my entire life, have I heard anything quite that bizarre," David Letterman said last night after hearing Jake Gyllenhaal describe his Love & Other Drugs sex scenes with Anne Hathaway. Elsewhere in late night, Russell Brand discussed his dual attraction to Katy Perry and the Queen of England, Jimmy Kimmel asked viewers to unfriend their Facebook pals and Movieline buddy Tom Bergeron talked Palin.

Now that Lifetime's Project Runway is over, Bravo's reclaiming its fashionista flair with the stellar The Fashion Show: Ultimate Collection. Legendary fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi sits on a distinguished and fearsome judging panel on the design competition series, bandying opinions with no-nonsense supermodel Iman and the shrewd Laura Brown. He even mentors the competing designers at the top of each episode. Now, Movieline will catch up with Mizrahi each week about what we don't get to hear on The Fashion Show -- his full arguments for and against the fashions that end up walking the runway. Join us as the enlightening Mizrahi talks about House of Nami's "creepy" collection and Emerald Syx's "crowd-pleasing" melange.

Mark Zuckerberg is headed to NBC's Parenthood... sort of, but not really. Allow me to explain: Anthony Carrigan -- last seen in ABC's presciently titled Christian Slater-led thriller, The Forgotten -- is joining the sophomore drama as Adam's (Peter Krause) new wunderkind-esque boss.

Erin Andrews started our weekly Dancing with the Stars recap interview with the following greeting: "Um. Hello?!" It was appropriate: We've officially reached the finale of the most insane DWTS season ever. Join us as we chat with the ESPN heroine about last night's elimination, her feelings about the final three, and the flood of (unjustified) hate-Tweets she's received about the outcome.

Trauma actor Cliff Curtis is joining the cast of ABC's Dana Delany-led midseason drama Body of Proof in a recurring capacity, sources confirm to me exclusively. Curtis -- who also appeared in The Last Airbender as the evil Fire Lord Ozai -- will play Derek Ames, a top forensic consultant for the FBI and a potential love interest for Delany's divorced medical examiner.

Gwyneth Paltrow upstaged every member of Glee's ensemble cast last night while playing the cool substitute teacher to the New Directions. She sang well, proved that it is possible to white-rap without being altogether embarrassing, kept up with Lea Michele in a complicated Chicago song and dance number and fleshed out what could have been another one-note character at McKinley High. If Mr. Schue wants to take a sabbatical (maybe to try out that cruise ship entertainer career he's been fantasizing about), I'm sure Gleeks would be more than excited to have Holly Holliday fill in long-term. Until then, let's take a look at the highs and lows from last night's episode "The Substitute" -- and remember, there will be a pop quiz.

During the sixth season of Weeds, which ended with a shocking twist on Monday, the Botwins assumed aliases, toured America in an RV filled with sex toys and realized that Silas's biological father (spoiler!) was still alive. But there were much stranger events that transpired during the latest iteration of the Showtime series. (Yes, even stranger than the time Andy impersonated his dead brother to access a bank account.) Let's review!

For the second week in a row, Jimmy Fallon trumped his late night competition thanks to an inventive musical act. This time it was a haunting rendition of Willow Smith's pop hit "Whip My Hair" with Bruce Springsteen -- who stuck around the entire episode -- and Jimmy Fallon as Neil Young. Elsewhere, Harrison Ford appeared to be either drunk or high on Conan, Stephen Colbert parodied Sarah Palin's Alaska and Craig Ferguson paid tribute to Doctor Who to the best of his budgetary abilities. Best night of late night ever? Let's find out!

The A-List: New York treated us to a beatdown last night. I mean us, literally. We were beaten down. The A-List: New York's dimwitted cast was Mike Tyson and our hard-earned intelligence was Michael Spinks. I'm spitting out teeth I thought I lost as an infant. Oh, and Rodiney got smacked around too, but his brain is still shaped correctly -- the lucky bastard. Let's pool our gelatinous, oblong neurons together and work to remember last night's A-List.

We've had Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews try to make sense of it, but the bottom line is that Dancing with the Stars' 11th season is confounding. Frontrunners have departed early (Audrina Patridge) and last-place hoofers have survived (Bristol Palin). Who of last night's four remaining finalists won't make the final three? We size up the odds after the jump.

Viewers who have been tracking Mike & Molly's burgeoning relationship (and BMIs) were in for a treat last night when the super-sized sweethearts reached a very special milestone in their corpulent couple-dom: They said "I love you" to each other...and then had passionate make-up sex while wearing snakeskin boots. But who cares about the plot! Onto the fat jokes.

An interesting thing about The Event is that sometimes the arc of the episode contributes so little to the overall plot that we might consider it a sort of hybrid-procedural-conspiracy show. "For the Good of the Country" was one of those cases. We basically ended up right where we left off: Still scratching our heads, trying to figure out how it got a full-season order. Regardless, let's pull back another layer of this ramshackle conspiracy.

It took four seasons -- well, three seasons and nine episodes -- but the Gossip Girl creative team finally produced their worst hour of television ever. Well done, Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage! "Witches of Bushwick" was everything a terrible episode of Gossip Girl normally is -- stagnant, convoluted and boring -- but with the added bonus of having the three worst characters come out on top. Yep, if you watch Gossip Girl for Vanessa, Jenny and Juliet, this was the episode for you! Wait, no one watches for them?

Harry Potter stars were out en masse on the late night circuit last night to promote The Deathly Hallows, Part I. Over at Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Daniel Radcliffe revealed that he is having a difficult time coming to grips with the end of the franchise. Meanwhile, Emma Watson discussed adjusting to American college life, Craig Ferguson visited Lopez Tonight, Kathy Griffin impersonated Justin Bieber and B.J. Novak disappointed George Clooney fans.

Sarah Palin's a big fan of the ol' Twitter (and Alaska, in case you forgot), and she just tweeted a bizarre, abbreviated, and accidentally hilarious preview of her daughter's routines on tonight's Dancing with the Stars. Her 140-character splendor -- in all its unedited, Mel Gibson-tinged glory -- is after the jump.
