I got a little bored with this season's show. The business of the losing team having to live in a tent was just ridiculous. They were professional people interviewing for a professional position. What does a tent have to do with that! The winning project manager holding on to that position was unfair, too. Some of them never got to show their leadership abilities. I do think Nicole and Tim should have put their personal stuff on the backburner. They were there to land a job and it was not too smart to let the potential employer see how personal issues could interfere. Trump has been considerate of family obligations in the past but that wasn't the case in this new lust affair. I was surprised about no final task, too. Being PM for so long, I thought James had it wrapped up, but in the finale Stefani really seemed more professional. She had the best credentials and deserved to win. Whew, I can't believe I got this involved in a show I was bored with!

Apprentice
I loved this show when it first started. I used to be glued to each and every episode but this season I couldn't be bothered. Trump has gotten on my last nerve lately and the candidates this season just didn't hold my attention. Then putting his kids in the boardroom didn't sit right with me either. I tend to like Mark whatshisname though - the guy who thought up all these shows (Survivor, Apprentice, etc.) He is very creative.
Any fans of The Apprentice out there? sm
What did you think about the overall season? I didn't like how they showed very little of the teams at work on each task, had increased product endorsements and at the end did not have a final task for the last 2 candidates. I do think that Stephanie & James were the best 2 to be there in the end. I thought he would pick James since he had been the project manager so much but think Stephanie will do a fine job for him. Also did you pick up on his telling Nicole on the last night that relationships had to come behind working for him? Gees - what a jerk!
American Idol, Apprentice, etc.--sm
I am tired of the diatribe about all these shows. There should be an *entertainment* board on here where people can discuss these shows without making those of us who could care less about them ill. JMO
Anyone out there see Celebrity Apprentice last night notice...sm
that they didn't mention which team made the most sales like they always do - and even though the guys did the absolute worst job with their "sales trailer" they won? It was obvious to my husband and myself that Gene Simmons really ticked off the Kodak people by not coming to their meeting and then the 2 gals he sent irritated them - so probably no matter what the other team did Kodak was determined to not let him win. Plus Gene basically had his adult version of a temper tantrum at the end of being mad that Kodak didn't name him the winner and therefore he named 2 people that weren't a problem with the challenge to take to the boardroom to make Donald fire him.
