i thought the show was very funny...these people might be smart inthe business world but they will need street smarts to survive the real world ...cant wait to see the last show to see how dumb they feel

Mr N Paul Todd. That's a weird fake name. I wonder if it's an anagram for something.

It was a good show. I LOL'd numerous times. When the assistant was talking about the guys being sexy and needing to feel they were was pretty darn funny.

It is going to be amazing to see what these contestants will take from this guy just to be on a reality show. I knew he was going to go the sexual harrassment route.

Speaking of...what was up with the blonde and her Paris Hilton outfit at the first meeting? In what world is that professional?

Trump is "the boss", that's interesting... Do you mean Ivana or Marla?

this show CRACKED ME UP! The swarmy Boss reminds me of the Host from the first Joe Schmo show!! (but meaner, of course!)

So far I like the premise. These contestants, like the Benefactor contestants, seem like they would DO ANYTHING for money. I wonder if anyone will QUIT

This show seems to be about how long someone will allow their dignity to be compromised...before they act out. But then again, some people can kiss *ss forever and It never bothers them nor their dignity....so Who knows.

All I know is my family thinks this show is FUNNY.}

some peole are speculating anyhting....first off...Mr N.Paul Todd is an anagram of Donald Trump..Others speculate it might be a monkey randomly deciding who goes. My personal guess? I wouldn't be suprised if it was one of the Season 1 Apprentice losers (I think their exclusivity contracts are up).....if it is, I'd say Kwame.

BTW the money the teams begged for was given to a Chicago charity that helps the homeless.

This show was hysterical!

I'm sorry, but it is fun to watch people who come on a show looking for fame and wealth--people who think they are incredibly superior--being made fun of.

What was up with the names they chose for the companies? Considering the task they were given, when all was said and done, they came up two pretty tame names.

I lost it when they gave the contenstant crappy champange and they thought it was the most expensive. I also cracked up when they served them mashed up spam and bologna as expensive duck pate.

And the bed of money as a reward was hilarious. The girls were tossing and turning like crazy.

Also the boardroom was pricelss with the COO's sexy speech "You're sexy..I know I"m sexy...it's important. You should look yourself in the mirror and think 'I'm sexy!".."Why didn't you approach gay male couples?" I about fell out the floor.

When he fired the guy..all that gibberish about suits and then the classic line. Get the hell outta my office.

When is it on again..next Sunday or are they moving it up?

This was fun! There were so many funny weird things said on this show! I am LOL just thinking about it!

I loved when the girls couldn't sleep on the uncomfortable beds of money and one said something like "they wouldn't give a reward like this on The Apprentice!"

I don't think Donald Trump is the secret boss. The doors to the office of the secret boss do look like Trump doors though.

i was crying from laughing so hard at the 'reward' - sleeping on a lumpy bed of money, which of course they didn't get to keep.

can't wait until next week - selling soup in the street on a hot chicago day :-)

much as i loved joe schmo, this might top it for me. the fact i see trump as such a caricature when he's just being himself makes it even more riotous.

What happened here in Toronto? MBFOB wasn't on any of the channels, at any of the times it was supposed to be airing.

Exactly - in Joe Schmo threads we always wondered if they could do a Joe Schmo/Apprentice type show - and here it is!!!

At first I didn't want to watch. But it's like a car accident and I'm a looky loo. Hubby roped me into it and now I'm going to be hooked.

I can't wait for the finale and the reveal about the 'fakeness'.

I fear I'm going to get an evil pleasure out of this show. I've fallen victim to many a suck up in my working life, and have often gotten so frustrated that the boss can't see the suck up for who they really are. So seeing these people getting ridiculed for their game play is going to be so fun!

I laughed when they did the sweeping views & similar music. I told my DKs (darling kitties) this was going to be a spoof on the Apprentice, and it sure was!

All those folks commented on the wonderful and expensive appetizers. Okay when I saw the bologna ...but...when they showed the Spam, I just about snorted my beverage. I once had a true jerk of a Boss and he loved Spam too, come to think of it. Maybe we should draw lots on how MANY of them quit before they are fired.

This was cute but I still prefer the Apprentice. Sorry, I haven't heard either if there will be a repeat. Fox.com didn't look like there were more scheduled.

it probably won't actually....the ratings weren't too good actually, is it finished tied for 4th (ABC won, then CBS, NBC, and Fox tied with WB)

I wonder know if the "boss" is a baby or somthing...remember, the FOB said he only is told by the boss WHO to eliminate, not WHY....so it could be that the real boss can't speak either becoause the real boss is young, or possibly not human...

since they are spoofing Apprentice and trying to make it look like DT is the real boss I think it will end up being a donkey..kinda a joke on DT

Good thought Wilson. Maybe its a personification of J. Fred Muggs or something.

Good call Azlen - could it be that its an anagram for DONALD TRUMP? He-He!
