Tonight's Top Pick is the fall finale of Grey's Anatomy, "Drop It Like It's Hot." Every episode this season has been named after a song, and this one actually comes from 2004-05, when Grey's premiered. And yet, in the course of nearly 440 episodes, they've never named one "Heat Wave."
Here are today's contestants:
- Mehal Shah, a software engineer from Seattle, Washington;
- Elizabeth Little, a writer from Los Angeles, California; and
- Mikey McCullough, a librarian from Baltimore, Maryland. Mikey is a one-day champ with winnings of $18,200.

Tonight's Top Pick is Defying Gravity: The Curtain Rises on Wicked. Hold on until Friday, folks. We're just a little ways away from the end of the great Plug-A-Thon from NBCUniversal.
Here are today's contestants:
- Jonelle Lonergan, a product manager from Boston, Massachusetts;
- Amy Fleenor, an attorney from Cleveland, Ohio; and
- Paul Clauson, a tax analyst from Madison Heights, Michigan. Paul is a one-day champ with winnings of $15,201.
Tonight's Top Pick is The Making of Gladiator II, which CBS is airing behind four reruns. I'm guessing this was a relatively last-minute acquistion. Compare this with NBCUniversal's prolonged campaign to make us all well aware of Wicked. Like I said Friday night, if you're not interested in either of those movies, or Keke Palmer's Master of Me, or Paul Reiser's Life, Death, and Rice Pudding, don't watch a talk show this week.
St. Denis Medical provides most of this week's excitement, with -100 for impressive premiere ratings, but also +200 for Wendi McLendon-Covey being problematic. I'm also taking away 100 points each for Happy's Place and Lopez vs. Lopez having extra scripts ordered.
