glad to finally hear something on DT's offer to Troy!

I am hoping they have a "where are they now" to see who's doing what now. (from Season 1)

I just received this email from Avon today (I'm an Avon rep):

quote:

ATTENTION TRUMP FANS!
AVON'S ON "THE APPRENTICE"

Don't miss Avon's appearance on the smash-hit Donald Trump reality television show "The Apprentice" this Thursday night -- October 14, on NBC at 9pm EST/8pm CST.

This week, Trump tests his candidates' F.Q. (Fashion Quotient) at an Avon-sponsored fashion show. Avon spearheaded Hair & Make-Up services for the event, so look for Avon branding and signage on the runway and backstage. (You may even spy Andrea Jung seated next to Donald in the front row!)

Over 20.7 million people tune into "The Apprentice" every week to watch The Donald challenge a diverse pack of ambitious, young upstarts to outshine each other in rigorous business tasks - and avoid hearing the dreaded words, "You're fired!" - to win the ultimate title of "The Apprentice."

Enjoy the show and invite your Customers to tune in, too!




Just an FYI for the show this week...

Jen and Julieboo, I'm so sorry, but I was wrong the other day. On CNBC's Apprentice, it is this season's episodes. On my TIVO, it says that the original air date is Jan, 04, so I just assumed it was the last season. I guess that's what happens when you assume something, I feel like an ass, but they are a week behind schedule, so maybe that will help. Sorry again!!

i had to laugh tonight. i got an email (that i didn't open) which had the subject as: "donald trump fired her. now get the expertise of jesse connors". (although usually girls are "jessie", not "jesse"...)
anyway, wasn't she the one with the little pinched mouth, the overbite, and the attitude? no thanks...almost as bad as omarosa!

Please, some simple answers will ya? I’m fairly new to watching the Apprentice (only watched 2-3 ep), but seriously acquiring an addiction. Could someone answer these questions that I can’t seem to figure out?

- Where did Pamela come from? If it was the Boys vs the Girls teams, why/how was she playing on the guys team? Was there something in the 1st or 2nd episode I should be looking for? Did she sleep on the boys team side, or did she know the girls much at all prior to this last episode?

- What is the strategy of the Project Mgr taking 2 VERSUS 3 members into the boardroom? DT always asks if they want to bring 2 or 3 members. Is it because if you take 3 players they would more likely gang up on you, or create more embarrassment by being more spectators watching you get fired? Does 3 members make you less likely to bear the blame?

- Where/WHEN are they doing the boardroom stuff on Saturday’s? I keep checking in my newspaper TV guide and can’t find anything here in Seattle for the Apprentice. Is it fancy cable TV or something? What station or time? PLEASE, I'm begging!

PS - I was tickled that Pamela was fired (jeepers, she had zero respect plus came on like a Mack Truck)! Although, I will admit, she did a LOT to whip these embarrassing little girls into shape, just wonder if they will be smart enough to retain the info. They seem like grade school girlies, so very embarrassing.

1. The teams were very uneven at the start of the last episode (6 and 8). DT made Pamela go to girl team and he also made her PM. Personally I think both moves were unfair to Pamela. I think she did pretty good whipping the whiny bltches into shape..

2. Not sure why they take 2 vs. three. DT used to make a big deal about how dumb it was to take 2 not 3--lessens the chances of PM of getting fired when 3 are taken. (with 2, PM has a 33.3% chance of getting canned, with 3, the chance is 25%)

Maybe you are right about the ganging up thing...

3. The boardroom episode is on the same station as the regular show. Here it is WMAQ channel 5 (NBC). I think it is the same time (8pm) as the regular show.

OK, I screwed up again...It isn't a week behind. I just didn't watch the whole 5 minutes recorded. When I came home last night, I just glanced at the first minutes, and it was about the restaurant episode, not realizing they were showing last weeks highlights. I'm sorry again, and I'm OUTTA here now.

Biscotti, in the first episode, DT had each team pick a person to go to the opposing team. Bradley went to the girls team, but was fired the next week.

Oops. After reading Owl's post, I see that i didn't read the first question right. Owl is right.

It seems that all teams/people live together in same apt. Doesn't really show sleeping arrangements-but maybe I missed something. Anyone know?

I'm pretty sure Pam slept with the women.
I've seen where she was hanging out with the women - like when Jenn C was going on that tirade about the "fat jaded old ladies", Pam was relaxing on the bed and I think Ivana was there and they overhear Jen.

Here in NYC The Apprentice is shown on NBC channel 4 at 9pm (eastern) Saturday nights.
Maybe you can find the schedule for your area somewhere on this website:
http://www.nbc.com/nbc/The_Apprentice_2/index.shtml

Juliboo - didn't DT also make a big deal about taking 3 people in the Boardroom when Ivana did it? I guess if you bring 3, you better have a really good reason for all 3 being there and be ready to justify it.
The downside of taking 3 is that 3 people could gang up on the PM making it worse for the PM. It could go either way. (depends on who these catty women have it out for)
Also if the PM doesn't get fired, they would have more enemies. Only 1 gets fired, so now you have 2 people mad at you instead of just one.

YIKES! ggg

I just checked my schedule and it shows NASCAR racing from 7:10 - 11pm on Saturday!

My DVR (like TIVO) is not showing any repeat of Thursday's episode this week.
Does that mean we won't see any additional footage this week?

Is everyone else's schedule showing this?

Biscottiii, here's some answers for you...

The very first task, Donald asked for one woman to go over to the men's side to be PM, and for one man to go over to the women's side. Both Pamela and Bradford volunteered to go over to the opposite side. Bradford got fired the first show. Pamela had stayed with the men's team until the last episode, when Trump moved her back to the women's team. She, however, did sleep in the women's suite.

The 2 vs 3 in the boardroom is a relic from last season. Last season, they were only able to take 2 with 'em into the BR. This season, they've offered the chance to take in an additional person. Thus the emphasis on "do you want to bring back two or three."

All of the past episodes have replayed on Saturday night on NBC. Looks like this week won't cause of NASCAR, though. They've been great episodes... only about 20 minutes on the task, and the rest of the time on the boardroom. Where we have seen a LOT of the cattiness of the women, and a lot of things make more sense after seeing that extra footage.

Bradford did not get fired on the first show. I think he got fired the first time his team lost. The first show the men lost (the toy one) and Rob got fired.

I thought all the people (men and women) lived together? No?

they all live in "the loft", but I think the men sleep on one side and the women on another side.

I suggest you all tape Life as We Know It on abc which is on opposite The Apprentice. It is a really good show.

We know the walking out of the building to the cab shots are filmed ahead of time (except for Bradford's)
Does anyone think them answering the phone in the morning is filmed ahead of time? Always seems convenient that only one person is there. (In the first one or two episodes I don't think this was the case) Also, I don't think the person ever repeats back what they were told to confirm.

Costacat is really trying to erase the thought of SBG drooling all over Raj, who seems to spend an inordinate amount of time doing his OWN drooling on the show! <wink>

Cinder.....awesome point. Maybe they DO pre-film the morning phone calls. I mean....wouldn't one or two people have the bedroom closest to the phone, so they'd always be the one to pick up?

Also, how do 18 people get ready with enough time, from the time they receive that morning phone call? I have trouble enough getting ready when my roomie and I need the bathroom at the same time. I couldn't manage living with 17 others.

I wonder how many bathroom showers the loft has.

This is probably common knowledge for most, but it was news to me, so for others out of the loop like I am, I just read a yahoo news headline that Trump says Apprentice 3 is now filming.
