The Apprentice 2005 ~ You're Fired!!

[snoochface]

When the thing about the brochure came out, Tana's reaction was sickening. I mean, come on, toot your own horn much?! If she had pounded her fist into the air and shouted her own praises any louder, I think the audience would have booed her off the stage. NOT gracious in the least, and I think if Trump had chosen her after that display of self-back-patting, it would have been a major embarrassment. The shape of the brochure was not the only thing that made it a success. Tana went to sleep while Kendra stayed up all night finishing the product, and Tana's excuse for doing that was "I have an exemption this week."

I was rooting for Tana for a long time. But if I had still been rooting for her last night, I would have totally gone in the other direction when I saw that little display. I think she shamed herself last night.

I personally don't like Tana I like Kendra better

 

[BarbaraJean]

I completely agree with you-it was embarrassing to watch her. I have been a Kendra fan since week 2 or 3 but I have always liked Tana as well and would have been happy with either woman winning until her display last week and that nonsense this week. She looked really foolish and arrogant doing that.

If Kendra hadn't stayed up all night, they wouldn't have HAD a product to hand in! Tana's attitude stunk.

Kendra wasn't flying under the radar- she was doing big stuff from the beginning-for example, getting the thousands of dollars off on the furniture for the motel task. And for me, the thing that impressed me right away was that she was the ONLY person on her team to have the guts to NOT pick on the obvious weak spot, Danny. THAT tooks guts that nobody else had. From then on, I liked her. I'm super glad she got the job. She is confident but humble and a caring and inspiring boss. We should all be so blessed.

By the way, did anybody else think that the winning jobs are a lot smaller scale than the previous two?

Anyway, I feel almost exactly the same way that Mathias1979 does.
I like Kendra's guts to take a stand and not conveniently go for Danny as the rest of 'the pack' did. It bugs the heck out of me when people go for the outsider so quickly so as to save their own sorry butts. It was also smart of her because it wasn't Danny's fault that they lost. She called it and that will be remembered and will go a long way for her. (It might work against her though IN the team.)

I guess it was actually week ONE that I took a liking to her....

I definitely wouldn't call standing up for an obvious outsider and being the ONLY ONE to do it flying under the radar.

As soon as she started pumping her fist, I imagined Trump thinking: "Great - I need THAT at one of my board meetings."

 

[mathias1979]

I was disappointed by the finale. It was rather boring. But I'm glad Kendra won.

I really didn't understand the whole thing about Tana coming up with the shape for the brochure. I mean seriously...wow...a circle! She's a genious! And yes I'm being sarcastic. It took her all of what, 5 minutes to decide on the circle...it took Kendra all night to put the brochure together! Saying that they shape of the brochure won the task was utterly ridiculous! I'm pretty sure Kendra had the idea to put a CD in the brochure, so I'm thinking the circle design wasn't such a far stretch.
