Did anyone think Charles was quite vocal last night? I almost thought he was running the show at the end, nudging Martha that it was time to make a decision. (I still can't stand that big old cigar!)

What exactly is Martha's current position with the company? If that Susan woman took her place as head honcho, maybe Charles does have more real authority at MSO than Martha. Kep, I noted that comment from Charles as well. Didn't he say something like Dawna could be a "real manager?" It kind of makes you think they were expecting to give the winner a bogus position. Dawna still has the best record, and unlike Trump it looks like Martha's paying attention to that. Was this the first time Jim was part of a win he didn't manage? I also thought the dinner table would be a smaller one. If they were trying to make it huge for the car, why not also have gigantic utensils? That was silly. The other display was so bare and boring that all they needed for the win was to not screw up, and yet they still blew it. I'm suspicious of that whole business about using that winning display. It was just a car on a platform with a few photos behind it. That took their breath away?

I always find it strange when one refers to oneself in the 3rd person ie cough JIM cough.

Well I was actually impressed with the display and I imagine it would have been quite beautiful in person. The black laquer platform reflected the car beautifully...it really did stand out...almost like the car was resting in a reflective pool... the soft lighting behind the large plasma screens.. .the large "artsy" posters of specific sections of the car were very pleasing... We only saw it in segments... but if you were walking up to it, all these elements would come into vision seamlessly....I liked it alot...

I liked Marcella and Bethany as my favorites right away. Marcella is shrinking, she's like the incredible shrinking applicant. That's a shame because she is such a nice person. She wasn't meant for such a cut-throat process. I still think Bethany has a chance. I would hate to think that the fact that Bethany knew Charles in a previous life may work against her. I don't really like Dawna (is that really how she spells her name?) But I suspect that her personality is more like Martha's. Everyone has Bad Martha stories. Too bad. When a person has worked as hard as she has and accomplished as much as she has, there is little tolerance for wasted time and imcompetance. Of course she should have been picked up in a Lemo. Would you pick up Donald or Gates, or Oprah in anything less than a Lemo...I think not! In fact, just try getting one of them to a little shindig in PA. So what if Martha IS a difficult, demanding betch, she has left most of the rest of us in her dust. I'm not a big fan of reverse snobbery. And Martha has changed. She was humbled by her prison experience. She has learned a lesson in empathy that she couldn't have learned when she was so focused on achievement. Odds are that once some of the sting subsides she will become arrogant again, so what. If anyone deserves to be arrogant, Martha does. Obviously I started this thread because I am a Martha fan. NBC pretty much killed her show when they put some drama in the 8:00 slot, leaving Martha up against "Lost." And Martha was a little too stiff in the first few shows. And a lot of people really don't like Martha. And some of her applicants were pretty boring. And there were a lot of reasons why the show failed. But I still like Martha. I thought the car at the table, the way that Ryan suggested it, was very catchy. The execution failed. I can see that being done with animation. An animated version of the car sitting at the table. I think that would be very cute. Interestingly, I can't recall a car ad that used an animated version of the car. I think a combo of both animation and actual car pics would make a good commercial. The winning campaign reminded me of every other car commercial I've ever seen.

All I know is the cigar has got to go. That guy looked a bit like one might describe as doofish, in certain circles, this week. At the minimum, the cigar needs to be smaller.

Alexis Stewart slept with an Apprentice cameraman Alexis Stewart, Martha’s version of Trump’s Carolyn and also Martha’s daughter, “admitted sleeping with a cameraman” during the production of The Apprentice: Martha Stewart. According to Rush and Molloy, Alexis revealed this “on ‘Whatever,’ the Sirius satellite radio show she co-hosts with Jennifer Koppelman Hutt.” She also talked about the fact that she “experimented with lesbianism” in the past. Perhaps that or her bedding the help explains why on Wednesday’s episode, Alexis was dissed by her mother and was relegated to a P.S. in Martha’s note to the fired candidate. LINK

good ettiquette/good breeding includes being polite even when a limo does not show up to escort one or a hotel to stay in for a visit is only a chain resort.

It sounds to me like Alexis is really trying to push her 15 minutes of fame. I don't see what her sleeping with a cameraman (or camerawoman, for that matter) has to do with anything or why it's of interest to anyone. Apparently, though, she feels it will get her some notoriety and, indeed, she did get on the radio show, so. . . [Insert picture of me shaking my head here.]

Wouldn't you think that if she slept with a cameraman there would be some better shots of her in this show? Like maybe one of her smiling???

Or perhaps even voicing a complete thought? She does tend to trail off in the middle of sentences . . .

Sunrvrose, yes Dawna does spell her name that way as does my best friend.

Can Charles actually talk without taking the cigar out of his mouth, or having a cigar to begin with? Maybe if Alexis tried a cigar, she'd be able to finish a complete sentance too.....

So NBC, a network officially on my poop list, has now made Ms. Stewart's Apprentice finale only one hour long. Oh well.

In flight video for some cheapo airline. Ryan not worried about target audience(women over 40). Going with baseball player in distress. Bethenny & Dawna are ignoring Jim...trying to that is.

Ryan doing acting,directing. Koppelman says Ryan looks good in baseball uniform. Alexis just giggles. BDJ are picking actors. Early on Jim was monkeying around...literally.

Oh man. I hope Ryan goes. I feel so bad for Marcella. WTF was Ryan thinking??? He gets this far and then not only totally ignores the target audience (that was spoon fed to him) but he gets drunk while on the task???!!!! It is blowing my mind!

So much for controlling/ignoring JIm. Jim is crazy enuff without alcohol. Ryan likes the flow of his video. Ryan drinking beers. 7 so far. Editing while intoxicated. This should be good. Doesn't seem like Marcela's totally insync with Ryan.
