The walking toothpicks of Make Me a Supermodel reunite tonight but will it be a lovely-dovey gathering like on Project Runway or a knock down catfight like those heinous Real World/Road Rules reunions? Aside from the occasional battle of the sexes and Prison Ben's impersonation of a homophobe this show has managed to remain pretty hatred free so I'm expecting cuddles and kisses instead of hair pulling and chair throwing. I guess that's a good thing...

It's been one hell of a season and I'm so glad to have played host to all of your comments so let's not disappoint tonight. Even though there's no catwalk competition or photo assignment, it doesn't mean we can't be Mean Girls and dish the dirt on the models we've grown to love and loathe over the last 12 weeks.

I don't know about you but I've switched faves more than BritBrit's switched personalities (her personal best being that receptionist gig at the tattoo removal office) and I've gone from Dom to Shannon to Ronnie to Perry all the way to Holly for the win.

I've made my love for Perry and Holly well known over the last couple episodes and as much as I want to cheer on our gay fave Ronnie Kroell, I just don't see him as a high fashion model. Sure he's adorable, sweet, and determined to win but my heart and my keen catwalk censors tell me Perry and Holly have it in the bag.

None of this matters because tonight it's all about looking back on the last 12 weeks (and barely hearing from wallflowers like Dom, Katy or Jay) and praising our Final 4 Models: Ronnie, Prison Ben, Perry and Holly.

The Make Me a Supermodel Reunion Special liveblog begins now...

On Survivor, the reunion specials offer the pleasure of seeing people who clearly loathe each other pretending (badly) that they don’t any more, as well as after-the-fact insights into the hugely misguided thinking behind their failed strategic decisions.

That’s something Top Chef can’t really replicate -- how interesting would it really be to hear reflections along the lines of “I guess in retrospect I really should have cooked that chicken all the way through” -- so the only real interest I had in watching the second reunion special this season was confirmation that it wasn’t just a horrible dream and Hung had in fact won. (Part of me was hoping we’d actually get a “do-over” challenge here, because it’s not like this show has proven itself above that kind of blatant disregard for established procedure.) Oh, and I also wanted to see if Dale is still cute. Happily, the answer is "Yes," but sadly, it’s also "Yes" to the Hung question as well.

The reunion kicks off with this very topic, as Bravo Andy (a.k.a. “Brandy”) asks if the right chef won. The only one to answer is tellingly the person who spent the least amount of time with him, Sandee, who says, Hung was “the one to beat,” apparently forgetting about the other 13 cheffersons she also wasn’t able to beat. Brandy pushes the point and directly asks if Hung should have won and is met with a show of hands. These are not, I suspect, hands raised in support of Hung but more likely requests for permission to leave the room and barf.

I was hoping that in an hour of television that managed to find time for such urgent topics as which person Gail would like to cater her wedding, Brandy would ask Hung if there’s a special someone in his life and of what gender, or at least clarify his “I can go both ways” comment from his audition tape. No such luck. Instead, Hung is given yet another chance to defend his strategy of being an a-hole. Hung blah blah blahs about not letting feelings get in the way of competition. And Dale, bless his bandana-ed heart, pipes in here that it’s also about the kind of chef you are and says he’s the type of chef who’s going to help out the person next to him, whether it’s in the restaurant kitchen or in a competition.

• In case you missed Neil Patrick Harris' chat on Ellen, the full appearance is now online over here.
  

• Here's a ridiculously thorough listing of what kind of swag various stars gravitated towards, with mention at the bottom that Rex Lee and Neil Patrick Harris were fans of Christie's fedoras. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

• "I guess I'm just a turtleneck kind of gal!" (Jack McBrayer, best known as Kenneth the Gay-Seeming Page from 30 Rock, doing his best Diane Keaton)

• Mario Cantone may not have approved, but Joan Rivers' Barcalounger Emmy coverage had a few fans and a good barb or two, including this one: "Note to Kate Walsh: That’s what you get for hiring a straight hairdresser."

• The very straight Steve Agee refers to his gay Sarah Silverman Program namesake alter-ego as "one half of the greatest gay TV couple since Ernie and Bert."
