I know!! I thought that was a pretty clever comment, actually. Very brave to challenge the Donald like that. Obviously, Trump and Carolyn didn't take it too well.

I agree that Tana and Angie are both doing very well. I don't think that Trump is as impressed with Angie as Carolyn and George are though.

I think this is a much better season than the second season.

I have been an avid watcher of the apprentice since it first debuted...but is anyone else really disappointed by this new one? The book smarts vs. street smarts apprentice has just not entertained me thus far. I have actually stopped making an effort to catch the show...if I happen to see it, fine, otherwise I am not missing much. I hope the next one is better!

Actually, I'm enjoying this season much more than the second season. I didn't think the second season was very good and really didn't have much of an opinion about the candidates until the very end.

So who is everyone's favorites at this point? I've liked Kendra since the very beginning. Very intelligent and doesn't herself be influenced by anyone else. Good decision maker. I'll be disappointed isn't one of the final two. I think she's got a good chance as long as she doesn't do anything stupid at this point. I also like Bren, would like to see him there until the end. As for the rest, Chris needs to go. Tana can get on my nerves sometimes...as can Craig. Don't have much of an opinion on Alex.

Chris Got Arrested!!!

http://entertainment.sympatico.msn.ca/tv/articles/1120077.armx

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Real estate millionaire Chris Shelton, a contestant on NBC's The Apprentice, was arrested on a disorderly conduct charge.

Shelton, 22, one of six remaining contestants competing for a job with Donald Trump, was taken into custody early Sunday at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. He was released after posting $250 US bail.

A tribal police officer said he heard a noisy Shelton in the hotel lobby and asked him twice to calm down before arresting him, said Seminole police spokesman Gary Bitner.
"He was loud and he just wouldn't calm down," Bitner said.

Shelton was peeved over a $20 cover charge for the hotel bar. Shelton "was at the lobby causing a scene," the police report said. "There were several patrons in the area who were visibly shaken by his actions. After several attempts to calm Shelton, he continued to yell and curse, refusing to calm down and stop causing a scene."

Shelton and some friends were staying at the hotel and celebrating his continued success on The Apprentice, Bitner said.

"We don't really have any comment," NBC spokesman Jim Dowd said. "This is clearly a private matter with Chris." All but the final episode has been taped, and it isn't known if Shelton makes it that far.

Well, I highly doubt he made it this far, but if he did, he clearly won't be the winner. Once Donald hears of this, any chance Chris has would be gone. It clearly confirms he's a loose cannon and can't keep it under control. The Donald has said he doesn't want someone working for him like that.

I've not like Chris from the beginning. He showed early on that he has an anger management problem!

I was disappointed to see Angie go. But did you see her on FoxNews today? She's headed for a singing career!

I like Tana too. Bren is definitely a contender but he really needs a fashion coach.

I agree...ever since the first week when Donald asked him something in the board room and he practically started yelling as he was answering. The only reason I think he's still there is either ratings or because he's just gotten lucky with someone else making a really stupid mistake that Trump can't excuse. My guess is ratings.

I was actually shocked to see Trump fire Angie. She did most of the work in this last event and he fired her? She didn't deserve that at all. I knew when he was asking her if she thought she choked she should've answered no. Chris shopped and forgot the credit card. That sums up the vast responsibilities that Chris had. Well, I must admit yelling in the board room can take a lot out of you and does require for said person to perserve all their energy for the appropriate time such as Trump asking you what you think of your team. That would "obviously" make anyone flare out. ;) Alex... well, I don't really recall him doing anything at all. He should've gone shopping with Chris. He could've been the designated credit card holder. I know the responsibility would've been great, but in this heavy of a task, 2 would've been better than 1 :p

Tana is the only real good candidate in this season. Erin would've made it far if only she hadn't relaxed in the thought the Trump would never fire her. I must admit he did surprise me when he fired her that day.



God bless! :angel:

Angie was probably afraid of sounding like a whiner but she really should have pointed out that list of responsibilities. She was given way too much to do! She did not deserve to be fired but I think she's pretty happy with what she's doing now.

I agree Angie probably didn't deserve to be fired last week, and I'm rather surprised they didn't spend more time discussing how Chris could have perhaps contributed a bit more had he not wasted a day waiting for the Best Buy staff to find the credit card. But in any case, I wasn't terribly upset because I really don't like anyone on Net Worth. If Angie hadn't have been fired last week, I'd be hoping she'd be the one out this week.

So there's six candidate left. Of the original Book Smart vs. Street Smart it's still even. Bren, Kendra and Alex are from the original Book Smart team and Tana, Chris and Craig are from the Street Smart team. Even though it's only Chris and Alex on the NetWorth team (aka Street Smart), I'm assuming they'll get to take one away from the other side this week to even it up again. So will they take back one of their street smart members? And then if they take a book smart member, and then Chris goes (which I'm hoping), NetWorth will end up being a Book Smart team and Magna could end up being the Street Smart team. Confused?

I don't know...

You guys all know how tough those actual interviews are once they get down to the final four. They grill you really hard.

I just don't see Tana, Craig and Chris being able to hold out during the interview process. None of them seem to be very well-spoken.
