YOU'RE FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!! (The Apprentice)

[bigsierra]

I wish they would have shown more of the actual interviews and started the playoffs in the next episode.

 

[wvmtnkid]

Whew-everytime they do the interviews, I am thankful that it isn't me in their shoes!

How does everyone else feel about Jennifer and Sandy's behavior in the board room? Specifically the way the fight with each other. I have been surprised that Trump has allowed it to go as long as he does. I think any boss I have had would stop the bickering fairly quickly.

 

[bigsierra]

Why not put up ropes and sell tickets? hehe

I think he lets it go on longer than a normal boss would since it play out pretty funny on TV. With all the cuts back and forth, it seems like we even miss a lot of what was said... err yelled... umm said loudly.

I agree completely. Cheap clips of questions and answers. Playing like the audience is too dumb to appreciate it perhaps?

I thoroughly enjoyed the Jennifer/Sandy argument. I have to say, even though I am not a big Jenn fan, she completely TROUNCED Sandy in the boardroom. VERY impressed how she knew all the stats about Trump's company. You'd think though, that they all would have taken those steps. I would have had to give in to Jen just for the way she fought her way in.

As to the playoffs, BOTH of them seem to be doling out tasks and their teams seem to be not at all concerned with winning. They have to be provided with some significant incentives. Jobs perhaps?

 

[Savedsis]

I think the only reason Jen got in the top 2 was because she out-debated Sandy, not because she did better work...
She came to the boardroom ready to claim a place, and she took it..
She did her homework and studied the company..

 

[bigsierra]

I can't believe the PM's on this last challenge are really trusting the "lame duck" players. Jen needed to be calling the NBA from the beginning and making their laborers do menial stuff.

I wonder if Jen wins, since Donald said it looks like it's going to be Kelly and Jen looks like shes floundering on this challenge. They love to fool us.

 

[Savedsis]

I know they love to fool us.....SO...And also I thought last year was a man and they probably will have Jen to win......Who knows...It is a game...

 

[JC 101 FM]

I know the hot blonde will win! Blondes rule! Just ask my wife.

 

[MsAnne]

If Jennifer wins I will have lost all respect for the show.
Yes, she out-voiced Sandy last night, but so far, I still can't tell you what Jen is good at - well, other than looking like a Barbie. Looks can definitely help you in the corporate world, but you need integrity, drive, and intelligence to back it up.

 

[mathias1979]

That boardroom the other night drove me and my wife insane. First of all, the arguement between Jen and Sandy seemed almost artificial in that toward the end, I felt like there was a lot of audio editing that went on to make it sound like they were constantly yelling over each other, even though they may not have been. Secondly, it just came down to who could talk louder. How was Sandy supposed to get a word in when Jen was screaming. Her voice just over powered Sandy's...how can you fault Sandy for not being as much of a loud mouth. Jen drives me insane. I hope Kelly wins this.

Bingo!

The only episode I've ever watched was this weeks. And I must say... Kelly is going to win. From what I saw and heard, Jen is going to get destroyed. She seems like a power-hungry person who really can't take charge or responsibilty (talking to the execs or whatever about the basketball game and asking what they want done, how they want it, etc. It seemed like she was at a loss and needed help. Not a good thing). Then again, I didn't see much of Kelly's planning for the polo match, I was cooking my dinner I think during that part, so I can't compare the two. Oh well.

 

[wvmtnkid]

I have to go with Kelly too. I don't care much for Jen's style. The two board room arguments, in my opinion, just were not very cool. Look at Carolyn-she gets her point across without resorting to screaming at the contestants. Of course, I have a feeling if they did not respect her-they would be gone fairly fast.

Anyway-that's my prediction.

 

[jenelis]

I liked Jen from the beginning. She was all business and I thought Donald might really like that. The arguing and screaming at Bridal salon girl looked bad. That and the delegate everything style have done her in.

Kelly is the clear winner.

I just hope that next season they can get some better competitors.

And, for the record, the Virgin Airlines show <-- or whatever it is-- is a pathetic knock-off of The Apprentice. I watched it tonight for the first time because I heard that an old high school fellow cheerleader was on it.. and she is. Despite the fact that I think it's cheesy... GO SARA!

 

[HeatherJay]

I'm rooting for Kelly all the way. But I can't wait till it's over...boring season, I thought.

I tend to agree. Last season was more exciting. Probably partially because it was a new idea for a show. But I also think the candidates this year didn't seem to be as qualified and several were probably picked purely based on possible entertainment or drama value. If that trend continues into next season, I may end up watching the show less.

[bigsierra]

In Feb., when the next season starts, they will have MBA's vs. HS graduates, which should be interesting.

 

[wvmtnkid]

Tonight's the night!

They had all of the "losing" contestants on the Today show this morning. They seem to get along pretty well and even commented that they had better relationships with each other then what is portrayed on the show. Trumps was also very complimentary on all of them.

I still wish Bradford would have been able to have a longer run then he did!

 

[Savedsis]

Tonight is the night....I am ready...

 

[CelineDion]

Did sandy get voted off?

 

[patjhynes]

I've been bitter about it since he kicked Kevin off the show. I thought he had the most integrity.
