Deadliest Catch star Elliott Neese was conspicuously missing from the Season 9 premiere, causing fans (and cast members) to wonder about his whereabouts.

Scott Campbell, Jr., a.k.a. Junior, the captain of the Seabrooke, was quoted saying about the MIA star: "Elliot should be here. He should be ready to go."

Northwestern captain Sig Hansen had a different take:

"In all honesty, I’m kinda not surprised Elliott isn't here this year … No owner is going to let a guy run a boat and not produce. You're going to lose your job."

It's no secret Neese had a hard time of it last season, struggling at sea and back on land. But absent from Deadliest Catch with no explanation at all?

What Would Ryan Lochte Do? A new E! show asks that very question, and the result looks completely ridiculous, even for a network that employs Kim Kardashian.

"Don't duplicate," the Olympic swimmer urges. "Just recipitate."

And with that, we give you this amazing extender trailer:

What Would Ryan Lochte Do Trailer

The nearly-five-minute What Would Ryan Lochte Do? preview shows him showing off his "Lochte edge" shoes (whatever that means), partying, training, etc.

In addition to gratuitous ab shots and footage of Ryan hitting on girls, we're also treated to pearls of wisdom from the athlete, who has his own catchphrase.

"If you say it like how it's spelled, it's 'jeah.' But that's boring. No one wants to hear that. So you really have to put that enfidence on that 'J.' JA-EAH."

Consider yourselves smarter for having experienced this.

Jurnee Mroczek (name not misspelled), one of the stars of Oxygen's new reality show Too Young to Marry, scored a cool $5,000 to appear on the show.

Totally worth it for a decision you'll totally never regret.

Too Young to Marry Clip

Jurnee, 17, is also required to do voice-over work for her segment, and is contractually barred from getting married again on some other reality show. 

Marriage is forever, so that clearly won't be an issue.

Jurnee and her husband, Don Atkinson, 21, met at a volleyball game. Her folk had to sign off on the union before she could walk down the aisle.

Unlike the Teen Mom cast, she's not pregnant ... yet.

It came down to Kristen and Brooke on last night's finale of Top Chef: Seattle, guaranteeing viewers would witness the crowning of only the second female champion in show history.

Did she deserve the title? Debate now and then head over to Food Fanatic for an extensive review of the Top Chef finale.

The 20 contestants who will have their will and spirit broken by Gordon Ramsey on Season 11 of Hell's Kitchen have been revealed.

Who will crack first? Whose tomato soup recipe will you wish to copy? Who will come out on top?
