Last night's episode of "How I Met Your Mother" -- which you can see in full above -- may not have brought us any closer to discovering the identity of Ted's future bride and the titular mother of his children, but it provided something equally important: the chance for us to see former "American Idol" victor Carrie Underwood in an acting role. But Underwood is just the latest famous lady to grace the show with her presence, so we decided to figure out where she belongs on the spectrum. After the jump, five "How I Met Your Mother" guest stars who were better than Underwood -- and five who were worse.

How many baseball movies can you stand to see referenced in a single episode of a teen drama? Last night's "Greek" may have tested your limits. The full recap is after the jump.

Last night's new episode of "Greek" did us a solid by, thankfully, resolving one go-nowhere storyline that, on a lesser show, would have dragged on for the rest of the season. Find out how after the jump.

Last night we finally got the exciting conclusion of "Survivor: Samoa," and I, for one, feel ripped off. Four of the five remaining castaways -- Jaison, Mick, Natalie, and Evil Russell -- did a miraculous job of dodging a stiff numbers disadvantage, and look to be in control of the game. But, they still had two remaining obstacles: Brett, the only remaining member of their rival Galu tribe, and the fact that "Survivor" ultimately boils down to a high school-level popularity contest. A recap of the two-hour episode is after the jump.

Now that we're in the home stretch of "Survivor: Samoa," the ex-Foa Foa alliance is running the show. In fact, the only things keeping them from making it to the end together is a loud-mouthed, mullet-flaunting middle-aged woman, and a guy whose name I have trouble remembering, and who weighs 110 pounds soaking wet. So, it seems like everything's pretty cut-and-dried, except for one small thing: Everyone likes the little wet guy, and he's really good at winning challenges. A full recap of last night's episode is after the jump.

Apparently, the producers of "Ugly Betty" thought you might be thankful this holiday weekend for some closure on not one but TWO of the season's big storylines! Make yourself a leftovers sandwich and dig into the full recap, after the jump.

Holy crap, "Survivor: Samoa"! It took ten episodes, but finally, some real, bona fide awesome things have happened on America's favorite "Gilligan's Island" spinoff. (Not really, duh, just go with it.) In retrospect, it was bound to happen: The ex-Galus' patronizing arrogance only goes so far when they don't have the mental capacity to back it up. In other words, as actual rocket scientist John explained last night, their team's full of idiots. Full recap after the jump.

Four totally hermetically sealed storylines that barely cross over each other at all? Okay, "Ugly Betty," if you say so. The full recap of the latet episode is after the jump.

How much of this season of "Ugly Betty" is our titular heroine going to spend regretting the decisions she's made? So far: more than 25%. The full recap of the latest episode is after the jump.

Last night on "Survivor," the tribes finally merged. Will the remaining members of Foa Foa continue losing? Yes...and no. The full recap is after the jump.
