Anyone watching Celebrity Apprentice?

15 years ago

Surprised to see Richard Hatch go home. I didn't think it was fair, but not sad to see him go either. Richard busey has grown on me, but think he would be difficult to have around. Don't like star Jones and hope she isn't in the final two. So far, John Rich and marlee Matlin are my favs.

I watched the first one and felt that Richard should have gone home that night but decided not to watch any more of the shows.........

Gary Busey would drive me crazy but he is brilliant. I'm really impressed with John Rich and Mark Magrath (sp?) I only watched the first season of Apprentice but for some reason this group made me want to watch this season. Meatloaf would have frightened me with his anger, glad he got it under control.

~Celebrity Apprentice...It's SOOOO Unfair!

Trump put Omarosa on the show for one reason, and one reason only -- ratings. Each season of The Apprentice had gone steadily downhill in ratings, and ratings were in the gutter for the season that took place in Los Angeles. NBC had canceled the show. The ONLY reason it was brought back is because it's a celebrity version and viewers always like seeing celebs "in real life;" that is, not acting a role. So, NBC agreed to give the show another shot, but Trump knew that it could be totally yanked mid-season, just as that "Pirate Treasure" show had been. So, to ensure that folks would watch, Trump brought back Omarosa because he knows the public hates her and would tune in for no other reason than to see her get her "come upins." And we keep tuning in because she's still there and we want so desperately to see her get gobsmacked into a mudpuddle.

I tivoed it like I do everything then I stayed up too late watching it! I was hoping Dennis would get axed; he didn't try to use his celebrity to raise a penny! How about the arrogance of Andrew "Dice" Clay?! While that Annie person was bossy; she got a lot of cupcakes done. I do find it hard to look at Joan Rivers; her face looks like a mask. Never mind that she's in her 70s. I still think Clint Black is handsome - Herschel Walker is still handsome, too. I thought that was the Jesse James that Sandra is married to.

Angela nor calif - Claudia did get credit, finally, but I think it was more than a "skeleton" that MR called it - it WAS the whole idea! Yeh, MR didn't like not getting all the credit!! I didn't understand why they didn't use Joan for the script but I guess it came out okay since they won! The thing about Tom is that NO ONE else was coming up with anything and he was throwing ideas out there, including some good ones, only to be ignored. Scott didn't assign anyone specific tasks. To hear him talk, he was the world's greatest manager! I thought it was funny when those geeks (focus group) left, Claudia commented about them all being virgins! Haha... At this point, I don't know who might be the "Apprentice" - I've not seen any clearcut winners yet.

I went back and watched the rest of the show. I think Bret deserved to win even without a sympathy vote. His diet drink is entirely marketable and he just helped to attract attention to Snapple for diabetics which would help increase market share and also create a niche in a tough market. Trump made a big issue of it being a diet drink and not tasting as good, but more and more people are starting to pay attention to what they put in their bodies. Holly's drink is just another drink out there with a lot of competition. It has passion berry..so what. If I buy it today will it be there three months from now or will it be replaced by the competition. Bret's drink may have another a different flaver in six weeks, but if diabetics know they trust Snapple to produce more diabetic drinks, they may be returning customers. Without tasting the drinks, based on what we saw on tv, I think Bret was Snapple's favorite.

I've been watching and was glad to see Richard H finally out of the way. Meatloaf -did- frighten me! Never seen anything like that but I was somewhat confused on whether Gary had his stuff or it had been misplaced and found later. Or maybe Gary had some of the stuff and rest of it was misplaced? It was good to see any apology issued, though.

I'm a big John Rich fan, so I hope he wins. He is an amazing entertainment and a kind and generous person.

Meatloaf did go nuts--I don't think Gary had his stuff at all; it was just lost. I'm glad Meatloaf was man enough to apologize to Gary. I was happy to see Richard go--I have never liked him.

Meatloaf did find his stuff later.......and I loved his apology to Gary. I think Gary is still having concentration problems from his brain injury but he has some of the most amazing insights and thoughts.
I am glad Richard Hatch went home, too.
I was happy to see the women come together and decide to send someone of Backbone's team home. Hope Jose Conseca's father is being kept comfortable but am not unhappy Jose had to leave.

I'm rooting for John Rich. He's a real smart cookie and has class.
Star has to go. I'm thrilled that the bit*h diva Warwick went home last week.

Gary Busey is surprising me. I didn't like him at all the first night but he is quite capable. His painting was funny, and I'm glad someone bought it.

Gary Busey ironically did the best painting because he was the only person who actually tried to paint. His artwork cracked me up. My first grader is a much better artist than that, but we don't all have the same skills. His artwork could become a collector's item.

I didn't like this challenge because it doesn't really reflect the skills of celebrities. IMO, Richard Hatch has more business skills than a lot of the others. He doesn't have the really rich friends. Mark Burnett produces both Survivor and Apprentice so he can't really go to him for money. I didn't see the first season of Survivor so I didn't see how obnoxious he was there. I'm still not really sure he should owe taxes on the Million dollars. If you are on a game show or win big at the casino, taxes come off at the front.

Star needs to go home. She is smart, but just seems like an awful person.

LaToya seems like a genuinely sweet person. I don't think she is destined to be the Apprentice, but I like her.

The Playboy centerfold is off the radar. When they start actually giving her screentime, it will be her night to go.
