I'm so glad I didn't come across the info you posted about who would win this week's Apprentice, because that information would have "spoiled" it for me.



Knowing that Lee and Sean would win, didnt spoil it a bit for me.

In fact, it made it even more intriguing.

Seeing how bad their display was, and seeing that they did not even begin to put it together until 2 hours before their presentation, seeing how crummy their display was,
made me wonder just how they will possibly win with such an amature and scruffy looking presentation.

Knowing that they were definitely going to win, was so tantalizing in finding out how the judges would reason to pronounce them the winners.

The only clue I had, was how they added other Walmart accessories with prices very handy to purchase at each display.


Anyways, again, it was NBC, Trump, the previews, and Hollywood that publicized who would win in advance, not me.

Ditto for the other earlier show when they showed the winners in the golf reward in the preview, Andrea missing, etc..

My advice to everyone who doesnt want to know the ending, is not to even look at the previews, and stay away from the NBC Apprentice website.

Fine. Discovering it on other websites is no problem since a person makes the choice to get the information. But here is different. Let's be respectful and considerate of those who haven't seen and don't know by using spoiler tags or white type. That way a poster can decide if they want to know in advance. Thanks!

Here is the thread that states the rule for using spoilers with instructions.

http://www.christianforums.com/t103206-please-use-spoiler-tags.html

We've had a thread to discuss The Apprentice every season. It's always been something I looked forward to - coming here to discuss the show. It's always been fun and even though we often disagreed, the thread never became a debate or argument.

Perhaps next season we need two threads - one to debate and argue about the show and another for a friendly discussion. :thumbsup:

Thanks,

Nobody else would tell me anything about spoilers.

I wont say any more about who is going to be the final winner of TA5.

As far as arguing, I didnt notice anyone arguing, guess I missed that.

Anyways, I didnt like TAmmy getting fired last nite.

Trump should have fired Roxanne and Allie for not doing much of anything, and for sabatoging Tammy's chance of winning. It was clear that Roxanne and Allie were not going to do any more than they "had" to for Tammy. Roxanne's sign was no more than she had to, tiny and unnoticable.

Sean and Lee were a team, the girls were as uncooperative as they could be.



( P.S. ... and here is the movie, as mentioned by NBC, and by Trump, in the prior week's preview: "Over the Hedge", starring Sean Yazbeck and Lee Bienstock: )


(like I said: dont!!!!! watch the previews if you dont know what is going to happen)

Here is an example: (just remove the space in the first spoiler tag)
I saw the previews for "24." It looks like [ spoiler=Spoiler-Click Here]So and so[/spoiler] is going to be killed in the next episode.


Ok, I went to your link, and I am trying it.


This is a test:

"The Apprentice" is produced by Mark Burnett Productions. Mark Burnett, Jay Bienstock and Donald J. Trump are executive producers. Conrad Riggs and Kevin Harris are co-executive producers.



Thanks!

I have to agree with you entirely! I honestly can't imagine how Roxanne is still here. What has she really done?

I didn't think Tammy's idea was THAT bad.

Trump tends to beat up on the losing teams more than they deserve.

Goldrush had a really shabby display. The only thing that saved them was having those priced items, thus incorporating Walmart in the scheme.

Actually, Roxanne has been pretty strong all along with good ideas, until last nite.

For example, Roxanne won the "redo" of the Cruise ship episode by having the best commercial with a black and white beginning over the objections of her team mates.

We saw many times how spitefull and vengefull Allie was before , but not Roxanne until last nite.

I agree! And as usual, his daughter and Bill both fall in lock-step with the Donald on all his decisions. Now, it's easy to see why. Did you catch how he reponded to the comment, "it's not personal"? He went on to lecture everybody that it is personal and that he never gets over it. Apparently, his enormous, fragile ego is still very much intact.

I think that having the girls lose was strategic.

Trump always wants the final 4 to be 2 guys and 2 girls.

If I walked into a store with two Xbox 360 displays, I'd first go to the one that looked good from the outside. The external visual must first catch my attention before you expect me to walk to it (and inside of it) to see the Wal-Mart price tags that are sitting INSIDE of the display.

The girls should have won that one.

Oh, yes, I forgot that she had such good input on that episode. But I still think that she lacks something. Not sure what it is, maybe just personality. ^_^

If I were Trump's daughter I'd be very annoyed with him. That's the second time he's disagreed with her like that. Nothing wrong with disagreeing but he just isn't very diplomatic about it.

I didn't think Tammy did that bad either.

After the executives trashed her display, I thought that maybe, just maybe, we were going to have one of those "you were both terrible, so nobody wins" things.

The guys' display looked "third grade," with the wrap stuff falling down.

Isn't the motto of the show: "It's Not Personal, It's Just Business!"?

I think hiring the guy to build their display was a mistake. My husband and I both said no way we would trust this guy to deliver when they first hired him. I think the display was too important to their project to just hand it over to someone else, they had too narrow a time line. Haven't they watched previous shows?
The girls project looked better but also looked more like a place where someone would go to just sit down and get off their feet after shopping, which is what one of the judges mentioned.
What saved the guys was putting merchandise that could be used with the XBox 360 along with the prices.

I really hated the way Allie and Roxanne treated Tammy. They knew what she meant by them rolling their eyes, I'm glad Bill mentioned it. When she said it was all about her, I understood her to mean that the PM will be held responsible and it is that persons opportunity to look good in front of Trump and that is true.
