The Apprentice

[Joel]

I liked Sam the first week, but based on last night's performance I reckon he should have been voted off. I hope he improves next week.

I think Trump is keeping Sam in the show because he is such a disaster and such good entertainment. It would be stupid to get rid of him this early when he is providing alot of the drama and angst.

 

[dreampolice]

Only reason Sam survived was you can not have two losing efforts by the same team and not punish the leader. Bad sort of precedent to set.Having said that Sam is leader next week which means they couldn't possibly lose 3 in a row, oculd they!
I know who wins but won't spoil it. Best reality show for a looong time!

 

[JUBJUB]

I'm guessing The Apprentice will be moving timeslots in 2 weeks.It might be on at 7.30pm on Wednesdays.

 

[choc_a_holic]

Yeah I watched it for the first time, which was the 2nd Episode I think..yeah it's a very cool show, a much different reality show

 

[Thrawn]

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no" - please, get rid of Sam!

Will they have an Australian version? Me thinks it may be a good idea.

I think Alan Bond is trying to start one.

I've tried watching this show a couple of times, and I just can't get into it. Bores me to tears.

The crap thing is, Ch9 haven't really told anyone when Stingers is going to come back on. Stingers is one of my favourite shows.

Stingers will be back next (I think) Tuesday at 9:30, The Apprentice moving to 9:30 Monday from next week (I know)

Sam's finally been fired!!!! He deserved it of course but the show won't be as good without him. Bet the boys make a big come back soon. The ad for next week's show had the girls resorting to sex appeal again and Trump's woman (Carolyn I think) was not impressed.

well sam's gone... the guys lost again, this time with him in charge... trump had to fire him... the men were really poorly organised for this task... surely the three back @ the tower could've better investigated prices etc... and the women's sex appeal again gave them an edge... they were jumping up and down dancing so the guy would give them $10 off the gold...

Hope they all get screwed over like those sad get rich losers who go on ACA.

The most corruptable one will be the winner of course

Ever the idealist with a chip on your shoulder.

The guys were crap for a few reasons. The organistaion skills were poor. They were dashing around town going here and going there. The Internet might tell them the cheapest price, but will not tell them which shop is the most negotiable. A flow on from the lack of organisation was that they only really had time to go into one, maybe two shops for each item. They really needed more time to be able to play each shop's competition. They were also lousy negotiators. The key to this sort of negotiation is to make out you don't want to buy it, or have a better price somewhere else. They never gave any of the sellers any reason to lower their price. Bunch of chumps basically.

That Sam guy is an idiot. He wanted respect for free.

Unfortunately missed tonights episode as I was sitting here trying to do this ****ing bull**** assignment, (I've written 73 words in over 5 hours)

I'm sad to hear I missed Sam leaving!

 

[myee8]

About time Sam left. In seeing how he was going as the leader, i knew the boys would lose, they have no respect for him whatsover. A team with a leader that noone respects is doomed.

 

[GOALden Hawk]

There is nothing worse than a "leader" who resorts to corporate jargon to attempt to get his message across. All that quarterback rubbish, ludicrous.

Why did they need teams of 3? Surely 2 people researching in the office and 4 checking out 3-4 places for each item would have been more efficient? And any person with even a slight knowledge of the markets knows gold doesn't fluctuate much.

As one of them said, the big spreads were on the wax and the golf clubs, and they bombed out.

Interesting show.

 

[grimlock]

Well, from the moment he became orgasmic after shaking Trump's hand, you knew he was GAWN. Kinda disappointing, because he was entertaining to watch. Can't wait for the girls' 'tactics' to be found out by Trump. Could be an interesting backlash.

oh i found that leg waxing scene very tasy!

 

[TheBloods]

Good thing Sam is gone - he personified what is annoying about Americans!! His coaching strategy and talks were absurd.

Nick dodged a bullet though - if he had been nominated I think he might have been fired for the dodgy advice on the gold.

The girls continue to focus on sex to win - finally something is said next week.

Best player so far is probably Amy (nice looking too) - good negotiation over the golf club.

 

[FIGJAM]

Have there been any Hypothetical Development Analyses yet??

 

[Sydneyfan]

It's a great show, I've been sucked into it since it's began. Sam was a chronic pain-in-the-ass but I'm kinda dissappointed to see him go. He was such a chump you couldn't help but like him, either that or punch him!

Not wanting to know who wins or how far people in the series go. Who do you think has what it takes at this point in time to win?

So far, I've been impressed the most by the blonde, southern guy (can't remember his name) who was the leader of the first task for the men, and Kwame, even though they've both made some mistakes they seem honest and accountable, and I think big Trump likes that.
