From the previews it looks like they bust someone addicted to something, wonder who and what it is.

Tara was on the Today show. She owned up to the fact that she failed the job. Said it was her vision to do the community angle and she forgot about the needs of the client. Good for her.

Yes, good for Tara for taking responsibility. I am sorry she's gone. She is the reason they lost the task, but I think she was possibly the best one there. She seems very professional, smart, etc. I think she would have made an excellent apprentice. DT announced last week that Carolyn was away on business. I was surprised at Craig. Maybe this show was the first time they've really shown him talking. During the task, he wasn't so Mr. Nice Guy as I thought he was. I was disappointed. Nice to finally hear Alex talk! He and Craig have been waaaaaay under the radar so far. I missed the previews for next week. From the description here, sounds strange. Speaking of strange, the partial discussion between Craig and Audrey about Audrey's marriage...why would they even show us that. It did not seem pertinent at all. I wonder if they showed it because it comes up again. I don't understand Craig's reasoning, probably because they barely showed us any of that discussion.

I thought I was missing something about the marriage conversation so figured they edited it down but it made no sense.

I think Craig brought it up to show that Audrey is used to being the boss and doesn't like being told what to do. He said that, according to Audrey, her husband is just sitting at home, which she denied. What I'm wondering is how Audrey's husband reacted to this exchange, especially if he is just sitting at home.

I think they showed the "marriage" conversation because it might have something to do with Audrey's meltdown next week. Just a guess, but the meltdown seemed to be based on "personal" issues...and the marriage conversation was about personal issues... just connecting the dots is all...

So far this season this show hasn't been very good - the challenges have been BOOORING...or however you want to spell it. I find myself fast-forwarding through a lot of it. Could it be that this format has lost its originality? I'm not that crazy about any of the contestants. And I'm pretty sure I won't watch the Martha Stewart edition. Back to CSI for me!

Not to be deliberately disagreeable, I've actually found this season more interesting than the last one. I guess it's a matter of what you like. There seems to be more variety in tasks this year and we actually got through one project without the losing team's project manager being fired.

One thing I have noticed is that it seems the PM is the one to go each week. I think that may have to do with the boardroom seeming less tense. And I like a tense boardroom. Overall though, I still love the show. And it is as interesting to me as ever. ETA, even tho we did go thru one week of the PM not going, that still seems to be the overwhelming trend.

I think I might just be in reality show overload - a loathesome condition of which I should be cured soon...but of course I will start watching TAR next week!

The winning team had a peer group give them a concept. Remember that they did NOT have an idea of what they wanted and the guy leading the team floundered. The input from the street kids/guys is what won the contest. Bling bling, money in a fist etc. The Brainsmart team was noncreative until they were TOLD which direction to go in. Also, they had a great artist directing them. ** this was a weird challenge.

I don't think that Alex floundered in that he was having some difficulty, he recognized it, he consulted the guys on the street, took their advice and used it to win the challenge. Seems like pretty solid project management to me.

I don't think it was floundering since he had the smarts to know he was a bit lost and he didn't just plow ahead but asked for help from the kids.. that turned out to be a winner for them.. AND the fact that they put logos and identifiers in their mural which of course the playstation people liked; you DO want it to be clear what the product is, after all.

I just didn't understand the talk about Audrey's marriage. IMO, not appropriate for the board room. If his point was that Audrey was bossy, he could have just said so. Agree that the winning team was really smart to ask those kids what they looked for and then were smart enough to act on it.

Yes, the talk of the marriage seemed jarringly out of place to me, but then I figured I'd just spaced over something that would put it into context.. guess not.

Agreed. The marriage comments seemed extremely unprofessional. But many of these people have already acted unprofessionally so I guess it shouldn’t be that big a surprise.

There just had to have been some major editing going on there...

so the TEAM was floundering, not the leader. At least he had the ability to get things on track. Completely different method than the other team LOL That team leader had a 'my way is the ONLY way' attitude. I guffawed when that test market youngster made the comment that the Harlem street scene was too cliche'!!! Didnt the team leader go on and on about being from Harlem? Cant remember.

Yes she made a point that she would be a good leader in that she would recognize the sensitivities of the area. OOPS.
