We expected there to be some uncomfortable moments in the Season 2 premiere of The Real Housewives Beverly Hills, given the recent suicide of Taylor's husband Russell Armstrong, and there were. But somewhat surprisingly, some of them had absolutely nothing to do with Armstrong and Taylor's relationship. Good for the other insanely rich ladies for really stepping it up this season and helping to spread the wealth of uncomfortableness and ridiculousness all around.

We understand that Bachelor Pad is a melting pot of venereal diseases, but normally a lot of the sexual encounters are left to the imagination... or at least happen when the cameras aren't around. We're not prudes or anything, but we watch this show to see what kind of hook-ups happen, not to be horrified at how they unfold. We might be scarred for life after last night's episode... not that it will stop us from tuning in for next week's finale or anything, though.

On last night's episode, we finally got resolution on the nail-biting cliffhanger from the week prior. Big shocker: Jake went home instead of Kasey. The former Bachelor graciously (and delusionally) stepped up and gave a speech about forgiveness and how he was really glad to have met Vienna's new boyfriend and that he felt good about the whole experience. Did we mention he was a bit delusional? Or possibly under the influence of some happy pills? But after his exit, things took a turn for the worse and we spent most of the episode trying to crawl out of our own skin. And that's not even counting the unveiling of this fall's Dancing With the Stars "celebrities." The first time Nancy Grace does a dirty rumba, we're so out of there. Here's what grossed us out the most at the Pad:

MTV hasn't been doing much to promote its newest half-hour reality series, and it's understandable why: Cuff'd is the kind of show that finds you, most likely when you're flipping through the channels late at night looking for something half-dumb, half-exploitative to watch. It's the genre I usually expect to see from Spike TV and I'm frankly surprised they didn't nab it first.

If I had only two hours left to live, I would spend it watching last night's episode because it just would. not. end. Thanks to all of the unbearable moments below, I'm wondering if it's possible to have permanent douche chills.

Well, that was a bummer. It's one thing to celebrate truly talented finalists and not eliminate anyone for say, a week (Top Chef All-Stars did it effectively), but to have two winners and two half-winners is just... I don't know, un-American. Un-entertaining. Un-freaking-fair for Hannah. And since it looks like there's probably going to be another season of The Glee Project, we're devoting the last of our energy for this show on coming up with ways to make it better next time around.

We're at that point of the summer where Big Brother has become less of a guilty pleasure and more of a thrice-weekly chore. But it doesn't have to be that way. The show could definitely improve and manage to entertain us for a whole summer, if only producers were willing to improve it. Here are the things we'd like to see fixed before next year.

While the first episode of Bachelor Pad mainly focused on Kasey, Vienna and Jake, the second episode had some genuinely dramatic moments... sandwiched in between more awkwardness between Vienna and Jake. Here are the craziest highlights:

Lifetime is trying really hard to expand by adding a host of new reality shows, but while Dance Moms and Roseanne's Nuts are fun shows, and Project Runway is classy, Russian Dolls is neither. It isn't compelling in any way, no matter how many stupid quotes are doled out in the teasers. It's tedious like Mob Wives, but without the constant phone calls to jail and ridiculous feuds. Still, there were ways that this show could have been good, but it missed out, at least in the series premiere.

When the concept of The Challenge: Rivals was introduced, it seemed like it was going to be one hell of a season. Not only would there be the regular intense physical challenges and alcohol-feuled fights and hook-ups -- the teams were going to be eight pairs of rivals as old as MTV itself. There was no way it wasn't going to be just amazing. Obviously, that's not exactly how it's turned out. While there has been drama, it's just more... lackluster than we had hoped or imagined. We want some blood! That's not too much to ask, is it? So we've thought of some fictional TV rivalries that would have given us a better -- certainly a more dramatic -- season than CT & Co. have. Seeing these pairs have to work together would lead to some amazing TV -- if they didn't kill each other first.
