The Apprentice

[MB MinnieGirl]

Anyone else that has completely given up on this season?

I have tried now for I think 8 episodes & still can't get into it. At first the women were all so catty you really just wanted to smack them. The men weren't anything so great either! Where is the intelligence & grip that last season had? And now, I just think Donald is such a horrible *** in the board room that I can't even watch anymore.

If it gets better - somebody let me know. As for now, Donald is fired from my house.

But, but, but Staci, Bradford, Jennifer and Rob are coming back next week - won't that make things exciting??

Actually - Bradford was my favorite at first, so he should shake things up a bit.

But I agree - this season is definitely el lame-o.....

They're coming back next week?! I missed th last few minutes, so I must have issd it!

We are totally into it We did just finish watching last season earlier this week. We get into things a little late here at our house so we end up buying a lot on DVD I have to agree that the people were so much more likeable last year, but we are still enjoying this year.

I am still enjoying watching each week, but do agree that this season is not up to par with last.

I watched the season premire and just coudln't get into it, so haven't watched it since unless there was absolutely NOTHING else on!

This season definitely is not as good as last. I actually think it's just Donald wearing out his welcome. All those Trumpisms were funny and somewhat endearing last year, but this year, they are starting to really grate.

Plus, I can tell whose going to lose and be fired pretty early on in the show just from the editing. The Bradford show was the last real shock.

I agree that this group is not nearly as likable as last years group. It almost seems they knew how to write their resumes to get to the show, but they can't put any of it into action.

Although, I finally saw some professionalism from one team tonight. They actually worked as a team and Andy showed some decent leadership skills.

I agree that Brad coming back could be interesting...but only if he checks his ego at the door. That big ego got him booted once..lets see if he can contain it this time.

Whoops! I forgot to set my VCR and missed tonights episode. The recap wasn't on the web site yet. Who was fired? Why are some coming back? Will they be contestants or helpers? Thanks in advance for the update!

 

[Beanie]

I forgot to comment on next weeks show and wanted to say that I think it will be interesting with Stacie J coming back since all the girls think she is crazy! LOL

Elizabeth was fired.

Have no clue why the others are coming back - it was shown in a teaser blurb at the very end of the show.

What is Elizabeth's background? No matter what she did, she always came across as totally incompetent. How do they screen and select these people?

 

[orvilleair]

Although the first season's casting was better, I still like the show. I think the challenges (except for the dog grooming one) were entertaining. You got to laugh at Donald with the "his highness" music everytime he walks down the stairs.

I think it's my most favorite show on TV right now.
I think Andy will win. I love all the bickering. They don't seem like they have pulled together as a team as much as last seasons group...yet.
With the others coming back next week, I think the one's there now will work together much more efficiently just to try to get them back off the show.
Donald cracks me up!

I liked last years cast much better, but this season is starting to grow on me. I will say that when the were in the boardroom last night I was thinking to myself "why bother with two others just fire her" and he did!

I didn't like Raj at first but he is growning on me. At least he stood up for his idea - much more than anyone else has. You can tell Trump likes that.

I'm glad Andy's team won - I'm sure that will give him that boost of confidence.

I enjoy watching this show, however the editing and voice overs in the board room scenes are terrible. It really takes away from the professionalism of the show.

I totally agree!! It is so obvious that Donald's voice sounds "different" when he is lecturing them. It's almost as if he couldn't think of the right thing to say just then, so they have to give him a script later and then plug it in.

ITA! It is just sooo obvious that they're voice-overs.

I was glad to see Elizabeth go. She was not a good leader at all. I loved that Donald just fired her on the spot.
