On yesterday's Thanksgiving themed episode of "Top Chef: New York" 27-year old Richard Sweeney was eliminated from the competition. The episode began with the fourteen chefs preparing a recipe from the "Top Chef Cookbook". Ten minutes into the challenge, however a twist was added and the contestants were told to turn their ingredients into soup. Leah won the challenge with her white asparagus soup and was awarded immunity. She also was able to pick six people to be on her team for the elimination challenge. Those two teams were then told their challenge was to cook Thanksgiving dinner for the band The Foo Fighters. The teams traveled to the arena were the Foo Fighters were playing and saw there were no freezers, fridges or stoves. They had to prepare the whole meal in three hours using only microwaves and toaster ovens. When they were done the judges and the Foo Fighters tasted all the food and decided Leah's team was the best. The bottom three on the losing team ended up being Danny, Richard and Jeff. The judges didn't like Richard's banana s'mores and he was eliminated. Who will be eliminated next week?

Brooke Burke Wins "Dancing with the Stars 7"
Last night Brooke Burke beat Lance Bass and Warren Sapp to become the winner of "Dancing with the Stars" season seven. The 2 hour season finale saw the return of all thirteen stars from this season as well as performances by Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keyes. During the show the final three performed one last time, each dancing their favorite routine of the whole season. Brooke got a perfect 30 for her Viennese Waltz, Lance got a 28 for his jitterbug and Warren received a 27 for his hustle. When those scores were combined with the viewer votes, Brooke Burke was unsurprisingly crowned the winner. Warren came in second, and Lance in third. This season may have just ended but don't worry, a new season with a whole batch of new stars is only months away because season eight starts in March!

Andrew and Dan Arrive Last on the Second Non-Elimination Leg of "Amazing Race 13"
On last night's "Amazing Race 13" Fraternity Brothers Andrew and Dan arrived in last place. However, they were spared elimination thanks to the second - and final - non-elimination leg of the season. The episode began with the four remaining teams flying from Almaty, Kazakhstan to Moscow, Russia. Once there they were instructed to go to a monastery and light a candle to receive their next clue. That clue told the teams to travel to Kolosok Camp, a military base where a Detour awaited them. Nick and Starr got stuck with a bad cab driver, causing them to drop from first to last place. Toni and Dallas arrived first and had to choose between learning a military parade march or serving borscht to 75 Russian soldiers. After failing at the march Andrew and Dan switched to the borscht while all the other teams completed the march relatively quickly. When the task was done the teams traveled to a bakery where they found a Roadblock. To complete it, one person had to transport fifty 55-pound bags of flour from a delivery truck to the bakery. Then the teams could go to the Pit Stop, Neskuchny Sad Park. Toni and Dallas arrived first and won a trip for two to the Dominican Republic. Andrew and Dan came in last and will have to perform a Speed Bump in the next leg in order to avoid elimination.If you missed one of the shows, CBS has full episodes here!

Randy Bailey Voted Off "Survivor: Gabon"
On last night's new "Survivor: Gabon" Randy Bailey found out a fake immunity idol couldn't save him and he was voted off. The show began with the traditional "Survivor Auction" where each castaway was given $500 and the opportunity to bid on luxury items. Randy won beer & peanuts, Sugar won peanut butter & chocolate, Susie won a bath & clean clothes, Kenny won the ability to send someone to Exile and Corrine spent her entire $500 on an advantage in the immunity challenge. Kenny decided to send Bob back to Exile knowing he wouldn't find the idol. At the immunity challenge Corrine learned her advantage was that she could sit out part one of the challenge and go straight to part two. The rest of the tribe competed in part one, a race across balance beams, and Matty & Kenny won. Those two then faced Corrine in part two, where each contestant had to arrange domino-like pieces while avoiding trip wires. The first person to successfully have their pieces fall like dominoes would win immunity. It was a close game, but ultimately Kenny won. Back at camp Sugar approached Bob about giving his fake idol to Randy so he would use it and make a fool of himself. Hoping it would prolong his stay in the game Bob agreed and gave Randy the fake idol. At tribal council Randy and Corrine were shocked when Jeff tossed the idol into the fire, revealing it was fake. The votes were then tallied and Randy was voted out. Can anything break up the powerful alliance of Kenny, Crystal, Sugar, Matty and Susie? Keep watching to find out!

Terrence and Sarah Eliminated from "Amazing Race 13"
On tonight's all new "Amazing Race 13" newly dating couple Terrence and Sarah were eliminated from the game. The show began with the remaining five teams traveling from Old Delhi, India to Almaty, Kazakhstan. While the teams took different flights to Almaty they all regrouped at the Al Agro Chicken Factory and had to wait til it opened at 7:30. Once inside the teams faced a Roadblock. One person had to search among 30,000 chickens for a golden egg. There was also the choice of a Fast Forward. Nick and Starr & Terrence and Sarah both raced for it and when they arrived they were told to eat a Kazakh delicacy, fat from the rear end of a sheep. Nick and Starr ate faster so Terrence and Sarah gave up, a move that ultimately cost them the game. After completing the Roadblock the teams traveled to Kok Tobe arch and found a Detour. The teams chose between playing a folk song for locals, earning $1.50 in tips or traveling around in a two person cow costume. All of the teams chose the cow costume. Arriving first at the Pit Stop, Old Square, were Nick and Starr and they were awarded two wave runners. Even though Andrew and Dan broke the rules and had to redo part of the task, Terrence and Sarah still couldn't catch up and they arrived last, eliminating them from the game.CBS finally decided to post full episodes online, so if you missed tonight's episode or any previous episode you can watch them here!
