Apprentice: LA
by nate

We finished watching the first episode of The Apprentice: Los Angeles tonight. It has been such a long time since the last season of Apprentice that I wasn't all that excited about this one. There are a lot of new twists in this season.

  • George and Carolyn are gone, replaced by Trump's daughter, Ivanka.
  • The project managers remain project managers until they lose.
  • The losing team lives outside in tents while the winning team lives inside a mansion.
  • The winning project manager joins the Trumps in the board room to fire one off the opposing team.

I think this will make this season more interesting and worth watching. The first board room alone made the episode worth watching. I think Trump changed his mind at least three times during the free-for-all. I was rooting for Martin for most of it. I don't really like Frank. He's too loud and abnoxious. I thought he was a very poor speaker, always interupting Mr. Trump and tripping over his own tongue. Martin was calm and collected, but a little too sly for his own good. He was probably the "evil mastermind" of the group. I'm interested to see who takes over as project manager from Frank and if they can get out of the back yard.

Donald Trump's son is a "carbon copy" of daddy -just as ingnorant and obnoxious. I don't care how many billions Trump is worth, he's rude. You can fire a person, fine, but to add every time, "GET OUT, LEAVE" is just too ignorant.

He may be rich but he'll never grow manners.

It surprises me that educated people would allow themselves to be degraded on national television. What has happened to "self esteem"? Donald Trump obviously has non and he continually feeds his ago and his own low self esteem at the expense of these sad people who allow themseves to be humiliated each week. Donald Trump needs to spend a night in the tent and then we will see what kind of a man he isn't. I am no longer watching the show.
