I don't mind the cigar as long as he doesn't light it up, those things stink! Jim is very good at graphics and if they would have said nothing it would have been better than what they did say/try to sing? I think he will land a good job as a result of this show but he won't win. Stacey, the PM, was so incompetent last night that I wondered how she made it this far. Carrie gave us accounting people a bad name. Jeez, I do all the financials for our company but I have other responsibilities as well. I really like Marcella and at this point, I hope she wins.

I like Ryan, Howie, or Jim. Marcella seems too meek for the MSLO. The woman who won yesterday is not attractive enough (I hate to say). Bethenny is too feisty, she's going to get in trouble. Plus, she dated Charles's son, so she can't win. Jim has too much of a bad name. It is nice that he has been given the time to redeem himself on TV, but he's looking thin and ragged, he may go next week. Howie will be done in by his temper or machismo. I could also see the Cancer survivor (what's her name?) making a run for the prize. She's attractive, classy, business-like. Good FIT for the MSLO.

Yeah, we are getting her name wrong. But she was forgettable, which is why everyone's calling her other names.

Stacy was the name of Two apprentice DT girls from another season. That is why we have it foremost "in our memories. I think Sarah and David were casting mistakes. Both were too young and inexperienced for the Apprentice position. I do like Jim's creativity and graphic ability however he is definitely brash and borders on unprofessional in the Boardroom (eye rolling, blurting out snarky comments while others are talking) I like Howie but he seems to be fuming with Frustration a fair amount of the time. If he blows Again he is going to ruin his chance at the position. The Eye cancer lady really seems pleasant. She often has a very friendly smile on her face and is good at communication. I can see her as at least final three. Who will win? Havent got a clue but I like that MS chooses her OWN contestants to come back to boardroom. It really gives this show more legitimacy than DT version.

When I watched last night I was so shocked- and it is because when Zachy (our son , zachyd here) was in New York in May he took the attached photo! They told him no photos but he had already taken this one- he also got a Tide To Go sample and the photo was among the 400 he took on his trip! He was so excited last night to realize that it had been part of MS Apprentice. He had no idea at the time.

That's really cool, Meggieprice. I agree that Howie is too much of a powder keg to win this thing. He might be able to make it to the final 2 without this being brought to Martha's attention, but by now she's seen this side of him on tape and may keep it in mind when she picks a winner (assuming she's choosing the winner live like Trump does). Bethanny and Jim are both a bit too immature in the way they deal with people. Maybe that's why they support each other. They have the same antagonistic style. Since none of us can seem to remember her name but think she's a contender, I looked it up and will commit to memory that the cancer survivor is Amanda, Amanda, Amanda. Now let's hope I can remember that. I think she, Dawna (long, blonde hair), and Leslie have the best chance among the women. Ryan is my pick among the men simply because the alternatives are Jim and Howie. I think Jim did the best job in this last task because it required creativity, and at this point he and Bethany are the only creative types on the team. Sarah should've kept that in mind and made the most of it during the brainstorming process.

Like Cdbga, I was stunned when Sarah (Did I get the name right? you know ~ the blond who bites her nails like a 3 year old)announced that they would brainstorm silently. The looks on the faces of the others were hysterical, especially the moment she left the room and they started instantly TALKING about ideas. Then to listen to her and Carrie talk about being the only worthy ones on their team! . . . . . Sweet justice last night! You know you've done badly when you make Jim look really really good! Go Howie!

Oh yeah, I forgot about the nails. She was chewing on them in almost every scene.

I finally watched this. And this will be the last week I watch. But I gotta say... I was pretty much appalled at the leadership of Sarah (or lack thereof). SILENTLY brainstorm? Had no ideas, but then shot down the one good idea anyone had (Howie at the prop shop and the boxing gloves)? The only thing I saw her do was walk around and pat everyone on the back for doing a good job. But honestly, the event she put on was seriously out of control. I, too, would've been aghast had I been Tide. What was the message there? Sarah says she's an event planner? So creating buzz means to get rid of all the freebie samples? Huh? That doesn't mean anything other than people love to get free things. Create buzz by creating a lot of movement? Again... HUH? I know I'm in the minority here, but these show is completely underwhelming to me. I'm glad Lost comes back next week!

Costa - your post reminds me of that old WKRP episode where they wanted to create a buzz around Thanksgiving, so they dropped turkeys out of a helicopter. LOL About as effective as Sarah's team.

les nesman! the ultimate nerdy newsman.. That was a funny show. geesh that was a long time ago, Eeyore! I loved that show when I was in school. Completely offtopic here but I watched Billy Jack (the original movie) and was very surprised to see a young Howard Hessman(sp?) casted in it.

Actually, it was Mr. Carlson (Gordon Jump) who thought turkeys could fly. His famous line from that episode, "As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." Les Nesman did an "on the spot" coverage of the turkey drop, and did a Hindenburg type coverage. He even had an "oh the humanity" line in the episode. I thought I remembered it all, so I went looking for a description of that episode and actually found I remembered it pretty well! Turkes Away episode on WKRP. Also discovered the Turkey Drop was loosely based on an actual event! Turkey Drop. Poor turkeys! OK....I guess I should get back on topic, eh? Umm...not much to add of my own observations. How sad is it when the task fails so badly, your star is Jim!! LOL! And Sarah actually saying she's not concerned about what the product is when trying to come up with a plan?

Just FYI (and Sunshyne, I am not doing this to stalk you but to educate you)... "casted" is not a word. The word "cast" is a verb and is used to mean both present and past tense. Still OT... I loved that WKRP episode. It was another one of those "ohmygawdwhatweretheythinking" shows and was a total crackup! And Who? Thanks for reminding me... I was truly amazed that Sarah kept saying the product wasn't important, and that movement and creating a buzz was. Ack! If your audience doesn't know what the product is, then you are only creating a buzz for the movement. Which, well, doesn't really sell product, now does it?

Costacat, If you were seriously trying to educate me I'd be appreciative. However in many places throughout TVCH I have stated that I am a chronic pain patient who is on strong meds which affect my ability to put coherent sentences together. A reference to meds is even in my profile Sorry if my cognitive disability offends you but a typo error is no reason to embarrass me when I see errors in other's posts as well as yours. I just ASSUME that they are typos or errors of punctuation.

Sunshyne4you, I am absolutely certain that Costa had no intention to embarrass you at all. She is a kind person, she gives all of us belinis for every occasion. I agree that it feels yucky when someone corrects something we have posted. But people are just people. Live and Let Live, right. Costa didn't mean to hurt your feelings, honest. Okey Doky, let's get back on track. I still like Bethany, Marcella or Howie to win this.
