I've seen plenty of stuff being filmed in NYC, but I've never seen any of the Apprentice filming either, and I live in Midtown on the west side!

Watching it on CNBC right now... doesn't seem to be any different than Thursday's episode.

I just read some of the info. on the apprentices at the nbc website. I found it interesting that of the 7 people that have been fired, 6 of them are single. There are 11 left, 3 are single, (one of those being Andy, who at age 23 I would expect would be single.)Sandy may be single, the website doesn't say. The others are either married or engaged (Kevin and Ivana), for Kelly, the website says "in a relationship."

Also, Elizabeth has quite an impressive resume. I am surprised that she isn't doing better on the show.

I know Sweetbabygirl drools over Raj...but, does anyone else believe he is "Flying under the radar"? ....He seems to be to be doing the 'less strenuous' tasks of the challenges....gives a comment or two (positive or negative) based on how that task is going...and then seems to drop hints to the current Project Manager about other teammates so as not to be brought into the board room....(or even considered a contender...)...

Oh Brother!

Especially after the Katie comment: 'You asked me to ask you, if you're single', Stacy sure seems focused on getting a date.

• Dating Lessons Learned from the Apprentice

• Dating 101, Dating Tips for Young Professionals

She's supposed to be Age 26, maybe hearing that tick, tick, tick
(NO, I'm not talking Captn Hook!) of the biological clock.

Pamela did a great interview with some interesting behind the scenes info at the Fishbowl. There is also a funny little clip on the donut ice cream.

I wonder if Trump/Burnett is bringing back fired contestants as a way to throw off spoilers.
When filming in advance it would be easy to tell who had been fired if a person happened to catch a team doing a task.
but if fired contestants were brought back...then an observer trying to spoil would not know who had been fired and who had not.

Familiar Ghosts Return for 'Apprentice'
(Wednesday, November 03 08:59 AM)
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) "Sometimes in life you have to work with people you don't like," says Donald Trump.

Preach on, Brother Donald.

That truism, known to nearly every working man and woman in this nation, will be the theme of Thursday (Nov. 4) night's episode of NBC's "The Apprentice 2." Rob, Bradford, Stacie J. and Jen C., the first four candidates fired from this second season, will return to the show to wreak their particular brands of havoc on the remaining members of Apex and Mosaic.

n case you're blanking, Bradford was booted for giving up immunity, Jen C. mocked two elderly Jewish women and wouldn't shut up, Stacie J. put her faith in a Magic Eight Ball and Rob, well, he must have done something silly as well.

NBC publicity reports that both Jen C. and Stacie J. return to the game guns a-blazing for a challenge that involves renovating dilapidated homes in Long Island. Bickering over renovations didn't make for interesting drama on FOX's "The Complex," but perhaps "The Apprentice" will be luckier.

The only person who's safe in the boardroom is Andy, who led Mosaic to victory last week.

For the season, "The Apprentice 2" is averaging 15.42 million viewers, more than 3.5 million below the audience for the first installment through its first six episode.

My local radio station had on Rob and Jen C this morning. They said that the boardroom is highly edited and that Trump even does voiceovers *after* the fact so that he comes across as eloquent. Jen C said that the time the short girl was fired, Trump basically said something really rude and to the point like "you talk all the time and you're really obnoxious-you're fired", or something like that. Jen C said she thought it was so great and she was really looking forward to seeing that on tv, but that it was edited to say something different (from what she was saying, more mild). She said that Rob's humor did not come across and that this year's show seems to be more for drama (girls bickering, etc) and big elaborate ridiculous projects than character development.

I think you can easily tell when those voiceovers happen. There is a slight change in his voice and the background noise is not the same. The biggest giveaway is that they show the "contestants/apprentices" and not Donald while he is talking...

It doesn't surprise me that she said that Trump has voiceovers done - because it was obvious a few times! You could hear the difference (it was even discussed in one of these threads).

The voice-overs threw us off when John was fired, yet there was a voice-over when Trump was talking to Kevin.


Why aren't they giving us extended episodes anymore? I liked them. :-(

Did anyone else get that email from NBC inviting you to take an online survey about the Apprentice? Well, I did and I took it. I'm thinking they've gotten alot of complaints about this because the questions were pretty revealing. One question was do you like this apprentice more or less than the last one, and another asked if you liked this apprentice less because of the personalities of the contestants. Another asked my opinion of Trump, George, and Caroline, whether I thought the challenges were stupid, etc. It was very interesting.

Hmmmm I would be interested in looking/taking that survey. I wonder if it's on the website?

How did they find you Ladytex?

Ladytex...lol

Now you have me curious....what are you complaining about?

I myself haven't bonded with any of second season contestants. Plus I feel it's too staged. I feel like if you become Manager you're asking to get fired because hardly anyone supports you on the team. Like they're setting you up to fail. Just my 2 cents.

I've complained about their olympic coverage, about their mishandling of last comic standing, stuff like that, lol

I agree about these contestants. I don't care for any of them, and I know it's the editing. I've listened to a radio interview with Pamela Day and she is hilarious! She has such a personality and they didn't show any of that on the show. I told them on the survey that I think it's all about the drama now, they've lost something from the first season.

Ladytex, I agree with your last statement 100%. The choices for firing seem based more on a story line than on what DT would do in a real business setting.

Most every week when he asks his two helpers who they would fire, he ends up firing someone different--then they both tell him he made a great choice.

If they sucked up any harder, all of our TV's would implode.

Ladytex, I took that survey. I had to laugh because after I gave Trump a poor rating the next question it shot at me was a paranoid "Why did you give Donald Trump a poor rating?" I expected it to then ask me "Would you like to reconsider your rating of Donald Trump?" I also thought it was funny that some of the choices regarding him went something like "He's annoying, but I like to watch him," and "He's annoying and I don't like to watch him." Apparently someone is aware that he can come off as annoying.

I do feel that I'm more hooked on the show this season and told them so. When asked for a reason I said that it's just funny to see successful, well-educated people resort to high school behavior when forced to live with their competition. This year's teams are more dysfunctional than ever.

A few of the guys were in Fishbowl chat last week. Bradford is doing very well for himself, he says. He says that his law career has really taken off since the show. He's driving a new Lexus right now because one of his clients is a Lexus dealership (he was teasing the other guys). John W. isn't doing as well. He's in sales/marketing and had to quit his job to go on the Apprentice. He still has not found a new one. He is currently in San Francisco looking.
