Title: The Apprentice
Post by: Ginko on September 16, 2004, 08:27:46 PM
Did anyone else watch tonight\'s?

That was definitely a tough decision to make as to who to fire but I figure Donald knows he can get to the others later.  

Ivana is clearly not management material and Stacie seems like she belongs in a rubber room.  

Bradford deserved it though, he gave up the advantage of being exempt to simply boast.  It was impulsive and wreckless.

Anyone else find that bowtie guy to be annoying?

Bradford got fu\'d, but that is what he gets for being a cocky son of a bitch.  His reasoning at the end was good though - he wanted to show he would put his neck on the line for the team, but he forgot he was answering to another cocky SOB - Trump.

Stacie is another Omarosa - she is nuts.

That Kevin guy - who came up with doing the Leukemia charity is pretty smart - he is another Kwami.  

Finally, that Maria chick from Virginia is hot.

That decision by Donald was completely producer driven.

A) SHowed the viewer to expect the unexpected.

B) Keep Ivana so now everyone will hate her and her incompetence will make for good viewing pleasure in later episodes.

C) Omarossa II will not get the boot for a couple more weeks.  Just too much good material for them to let her go.  It\'s really sad how the show two seasons in a row has shown black women as being insane bitches.

The show didn\'t have to put much effort into that.

Omarossa had a history before the show and she\'s a liar.

Stacie is a head case, she was freaking out in last week\'s episode...she\'s a spazz.

I was shocked when Bradford got the boot. He was being cocky but Trump blew it WAY out of proportion.

I, personally, wanted Ivana to be fired. She clearly was at fault in that competition. I also hated(as well as admired) the fact that she turned everyone\'s scorn towards Stacie. Also, WTF was up with everyone walking away when she walked in? That was very childish.

Stacie should be gone soon. When she started spazzing out during week one I was confused as hell and then she starts calling temps in week two?!?! She is bat-shit insane.

Raj(Bowtie Guy) seems like a REALLY smart guy. I wouldn\'t be surprised if he won it all. He may prove me wrong in the coming weeks but something about him oozes common sense. Kevin(Token Black) is a cool customer too. I don\'t know if he\'ll go as far as Kwame did last year but he definately has his shit together.

That chick Jennifer(The one who Trump told to shut her mouth in the boardroom) is IMO the best looking chick on the show.

BTW, That Carolyn chick is a bit testy this season. Maybe she can see through Ivana\'s facade.

"WTF was up with everyone walking away when she walked in? That was very childish."

Completely agree.  I was blown away at how much of a pussy they all were.

I don\'t think that Jennifer chick is hot at all.  Her bangs are funky.

I do like what NBC has done with their re-air on Saturday.  Rather than taking the easy way out and just re-airing it, they\'ve changed the show up and increased the battles in the board room.  Very smart of them.  Gets regular viewers to watch the show a second time.  Plus the people that didn\'t see it the first time already probably know what the competition is and who wins anyway, so it\'s no big whoop that they get that part shortened.

Jennifer seems to be very hit or miss depending on when they catch her. But her hits are better than the other chicks. Most of the chicks seem just \'meh\' nothing special. Its not like last year where you see a Katrina and go "wow!".

Elizabeth isn\'t hurting in the looks department though.

Is it just me or were a lot of those chicks overreacting?

Scared to death? Hiding in the corner? Horrified? Come on now. These girls don\'t have a scapegoat anymore so its going to be interesting to see them rip each other apart.

Real World is the shit...although the new season is disappointing to say the least.

Jennifer got fired:p

She had way too much of an attitude and she\'s all talk.  It was only a matter of time.

Post by: GigaShadow on September 30, 2004, 05:50:17 AM
That was the easiest decision I have seen Trump make.  The women are self destructing - the guys on the other hand are kicking ass.  

The part where they wanted the best looking guy to wait on the table of gay guys was some funny shiznit.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: Black Samurai on September 30, 2004, 06:43:59 AM
^^^Yeah. Pure Brilliance. The gay guys were in love with that kid.

BTW, Its great to see the men whooping ass after the ass whooping they got last year.

I agree BS, the women think they are playing Survivor LOL - that is what is doing them in.  The guys are just taking care of business.

The Jennifer chick got fired from her real job. Oh shit, now I owe trump 20 bucks.  I meant to say she was let go.

If this isn\'t the ultimate insult for having your 15 minutes of fame end in a blaze of uh... criticism?

"It wasn\'t just the remark... It was how bad she looked in general," a Elliman source told The Post

:laughing:

I thought Jennifer was cool up until last week\'s episode.  Her attitude changed almost instantly after getting selected to be the project manager.  She let it go to her head, the way she treated some of the other women was just wrong.  I could never work for someone like that and I wouldn\'t want to do business with them either.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: GigaShadow on October 15, 2004, 04:54:29 AM
The guys were set up last night.  I guess Trump was feeling bad for the women.  The task:  market women\'s clothes :laughing:

If the women didn\'t win that one, they would truly be hopeless.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: Black Samurai on October 15, 2004, 05:42:35 AM
Yeah, the guys were set up for failure in that one.

If you are going to give a challenge that is basically a slam dunk for the women at least put a woman on the men\'s team.

BTW, My new frontrunner is Kelly. That guy is ridiculously on point. There would have to be a MASSIVE nose dive for this guy to not win.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: GigaShadow on October 15, 2004, 05:46:02 AM
Yeah Kelly is looking strong.  I though Raj was a joke at first, but he has actually been ok.  

Last night was just not the men\'s night.  I love the scenes for next week though - looks like Trump is going to shake things up a bit.

One thing I\'ve never understood.  Drama queen @ssholes in 1 house arguing about trivial stuff on a network labeled Music Television.  Boggles the mind, body, and soul. :clown:

Post by: Ginko on October 15, 2004, 06:11:53 AM
I thought the women did extremely well last night, they didn\'t just win they slaughtered the men.  The women just got along this time and did their job, getting Elizabeth away from the group proved to be a smart decision.  Now that the majority of the trouble is gone I think they\'ll start to do much better...

Agrees about Kelly, he\'s definitely the strong leader type.  He always steps up in every challenge without over doing it.

I\'m not sure what Trump was referring to when he said that Andy has potential.  I haven\'t seen anything that suggest he\'s capapble of running Trump\'s company.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: GigaShadow on October 22, 2004, 02:01:12 PM
Finally, Trump split up the original teams.  Why the hell did Wes give away Kevin?  He should of given Andy away.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: Black Samurai on October 22, 2004, 02:20:00 PM
Yeah. I would have easily taken Chris or Kevin over Andy.

I\'m glad Stacy finally got fired. She should have been gone a while ago.

Post by: Ginko on October 22, 2004, 04:06:11 PM
Anyone notice how quiet Elizabeth was this week?  I didn\'t see her complain or cry...unusual.

Anyway, I thought Jennifer was a great team lead.  I imagine she\'ll make it to the end.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: videoholic on October 22, 2004, 04:28:29 PM
Elizabeth would be so sexy if she would just keep quiet.

Maria has the legs... I am in love.  Though her constant blinking is irritating.

Post by: Ginko on October 28, 2004, 06:48:01 PM
Wow, Elizabeth turned out to be the easiest decision to fire that Trump\'s ever made.  

First of all the military approach was the absolute worst idea, I\'m very suprised most of the team was behind it.  Too bad Elizabeth doesn\'t have more of a backbone to make an executive decision and stick with it, at least then she could have had some chance of pinning fault on some team members had they not done what they were told to do.  Oh well, that\'s why she went home.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: GigaShadow on October 28, 2004, 06:53:36 PM
She is probably good at whatever she does... but being a leader surely isn\'t it.  Andy on the other hand had was outstanding as the project leader IMO.  He really surprised me.  

Something strange happening next week - some old castmembers are coming back.  Should be interesting.
Title: The Apprentice
Post by: videoholic on October 29, 2004, 03:28:48 AM
She screwed up from just being too damn nice.  She would get eaten alive in Trump\'s organization.  

It\'s too bad because she was completely right in her direction for the commercial.  What they came up with was horrible.

That said, I\'d still let her drool on my tool. If my wifey allowed it.
