Hukdon and Wendo: I just bought a big bottle of Trump Ice tonight. It is 1.5 Liter (50.7 fl. oz.) and it was $1.00. So I think that is a great price. It was at Jewel. It has a picture of Donald on it and he looks like he just said "You're fired!"

Speaking of pricing.....I just bought 4 Mr. Clean Majic Erasers. The same item the women sold last night. Price was 3.97. There is nooooo way I'd pay 1.00 per item on QVC especially when you have to pay shipping and handling on the item (I'm assuming here, I've never bought from QVC.) And 30 sponges is ALOT of sponges! I might have paid 19.99 for that many, but 31 as Pam suggested.....no way.

I checked QVC's web site to see what price they had the sponges priced at-- 17.62 special introductory, normally $19.50 The grill the men sold they normally have at $76.25 but they are on introductory price for $69.24

I posted this earlier in the thread, but just in case anyone is interested and hadn't read it yet: the QVC broadcast will be shown 10:00pm - 11:00pm (Eastern) on Monday, Oct 11th. The segment is called "The Apprentice" (according to my online guide) btw - here is a link to the guy's item QVC - panini maker

I wonder how much more they will show tonight. The boardroom was pretty quick. All the women went into the boardroom at 6:25pm (you could see the clock). Don't know what time - and for how long - the 3 women were sitting in the waiting area. But the 3 women went back into the boardroom at 7:00. Pamela was waiting at the elevator around 7:20. So all that took place in less than an hour! Usually it's at least a couple of hours. It's like they could show us the ENTIRE boardroom tonight

I just checked out the video clips on the Yahoo website I'm sure most of it will be shown tonight, but if you care to check it out before or after the show airs, here is the link: http://apprentice.tv.yahoo.com/ The guys egg on the women to get rid of Pam - especially Raj! Apparently, they didn't like her too much. I hope they show it tonight because it was rather interesting to see the guys getting involved in the women's plotting!

WOW! I really like the boardroom so far. It's VERY different and lots of added footage. They layed into Ivana. And ALL of the women were questioned (unlike Thursday) I didn't realize Jennifer M was also an attorney.

I wish they showed some of the meetings with the QVC people. It sounds like they met with them and discussed pricing. And didn't DT say that QVC hated the set design? (or something like that) I will say once again - I really wish we could see the Dossier like last season. From the boardroom footage, it sounds like they had to chose between only these 2 items. (I wonder what would have happened if they both wanted the panini maker?) And Stacy commented on the page full of legal issues "on the Dossier"

When did their QVC stint originally air and was it touted as an Apprentice thing? I have seen the panini maker on there before but I havent seen the two groups. I was just wondering how that happened in real time but no spoilers picked it up along the way somewhere. That had to happen months ago. Why no gossip about it on the net?

Didn't they say they were going to sell their product live on 10-9???? Did anyone see it?? Fab..my guess is that they didnt say it was Apprentice related and we didn't know what any of them looked like months ago.

Fabnsab - I would think that when they did the ORIGINAL airing at QVC for the competition part, it would have looked like two regular guest hosts to the regular public. And when did this competition go on? I think over the summer right? So I'm thinknin' if any TVCHers were actually WATCHING QVC over the summer, I don't think anyone was paying attention enough to memorizing guest hosts for reference 3 months later. That's the reason I THINK none of us picked up on the original broadcast of the items. I could most definitely be wrong though. Were they introduced on TV as the competitors from the Apprentice? I didn't watch this weeks episode closely enough for it. On another note, now I see why Pamela got fired this week. She wasn't this helpless little mouse in the boardroom like the Thursday episode. I love the extra scenes. I didn't know the QVC people hated Sandy. Interesting to know. But I still don't like Maria and little Stacey. Grrr!!

I'm thinking the original aired in August because wasn't it during the US Open - which is why Anna K and John McEnroe were there?

To me - it's no wonder the guys wanted them to get rid of Pam. As long as the women keep in-fighting the guys have a better chance at the win.

Boy, the boardroom stuff on Sat. night sure helped me understand why Pamela was fired. I was really rooting for her on Thurs. night and thought the firing was unfair. Not anymore! There was a lot of coverage of the performances/assessments by all the female players and it sure helped put DT's choice into perspective. I look forward to the next episode as I, too, would like to see Carolyn laugh hard. She is always so serious, yet I sense she has a soft, fun side to her. I like her.

I say Elizabeth or Sandy will be next on their lynch list. Elizabeth for crying during the restaurant task. Sandy because they see someone who is possibly disliked by Trump/George/QVC/restuarant decorators etc. They will go after her, because it won't take as MUCH convincing to get her out if she's already got stuff against her.

Does anyone else besides me find that his/her opinion changes regarding who got fired on Thursdays after you watch the Saturday episodes? The Saturday episodes are literally a completely different show when you have 45 minutes of boardroom. While I didn't disagree with Trump firing Pamela on Thursday (because Thursday's episode kind of led you to believe she was fired because she was ultimately responsible for the pricing), after watching Saturday's episode, I realize she was fired because she completely mismanaged the team, made terrible decisions and didn't use everyone to their fullest capabilities. SATURDAY BOARDROOMS ROCK!!!

I find it usually reinforces my feelings from Thursday. I thought Trump made the right decision in firing Pamela. Some thought that Stacy should have been fired because she didn't take the initiative. Stacy was the first one to say $19.99 (which was a fair price) and then Pamela started to complain and intimidate everyone. Pamela had the final decision on the pricing - even admitted to wanting to price them even higher. (and let's not forget her horrible management style) The added footage showed how the whole team wanted the product priced lower. Trump said they failed because it was priced too high. Pamela had to be fired. I don't know why anyone would still disagree with that.

It's the first time I saw a Saturday episode. Much better with more boardroom. I guess if I didn't see the regular airing with more of the task I wouldn't appreciate Saturday's show. Pam wasn't a good PM the first time and didn't improve the second go round even with Trumps warning to lighten up after her first failure. Carolyn cracking up was the best. It looked like it was in response to Raj or one of the guys dealing with fabric. I wonder how fair this next task will be. I have a feeling it'll be good and maybe we'll see more of the guys team...I'm sick of the chicks.
