Maybe I'm just naive, but I want to think The Donald gave The Boys instructions to be difficult...at least I'm hoping so I agree Skootz...Bring your own wheatgrass! Trace for the win!! I bet he sings next week

The winner is not going to be an apprentice. This whole season has been about charity. So it really doesn't matter who ended up in the F2, because those who need it most will benefit (the charities).

Maybe I'm not understanding how the final 2 works this season. I got the idea that the winner gets all the proceeds for his charity. I don't recall hearing that 2nd place gets money for his charity. Piers has already won a good amount for his charity. Therefore, since Trace hasn't won any money for his charity, he would get 0 for coming in second.

Oh, we all know Trace is gonna win this--it's all a big set up--even the Back Street Boys stuff. But it's still been entertaining.

Yeah, I don't think TBB would go on camera being difficult like that...and from last nights show, Piers is doing well and Trace is not so much. Piers has won money for his charity and Trace has not. Trace's family shows up.. Hes the fav and he is being set up to win. USA vs. The Brit, good guy/ bad guy ..I agree 100% Holly

I thought he might have been being punked. I don't know enough about the backstreet boys on if any of them where nail polish...thats what they asked for in the previews. I'd love for Trace to sing next week. I don't think anyone will walk away from this without a nice chunk of cash for their charities. Any word on Celeb Apprentices' ratings. I really liked this season.

Me too Lilfair... This has been the best season since the first one. I'm totally loving this win - win - win situation. I hope Trump does this again...

I really loved two of the auction items that Piers had - The shopping spree with Ivanka, and Tea with the Dutchess!! How fun!! I love Trace, but don't want the sports stuff (give me the GIRLIE stuff!! :-)

I gotta say--after seeing Trace with his hat off, I really think he needs to keep it on all the time. He looks much better with the hat!

Didn't Trump say that each person would get what they raised for their own charity? If that is the case,,,they both win.

On today's Reality Remix the rankings for last weeks top rated network Reality Shows 1 AI performance show 29.9 million 2 AI Results show 27.1 million 3 Survivor Fans vs Faves 13.2 million 4 Extremem Makeover Home Edition 12.1 million 5 Fox's The Moment of Truth 10.6 million So Celebrity apprentice is less that 10.6 million.

I had heard that this was getting the best ratings since the very first show. Or, at least, compared to the LA Apprentice fiasco.

I think Trump said they will both win money for their charities, so they're only competing for the "title" of Apprentice. The Backstreet Boys segment was SO scripted. I think they were told to be big PITA's just to mess with poor Trace. DH and I were laughing our heads off. Wheatgrass juice? (Actually it is very good for you. You can get it at any juice bar. It has the vitamins of a whole day's vegetables in one little shot glass--but it tastes like grass. DH likes it, but it gags me. Have to chug some water right afterwards.) I think the best part of this show is the exposure each of their charities have gotten. It doesn't matter who wins. Donations should be up just from being shown on this show. I'm also thankful DT didn't bring back Omarosa for the finale, which I was sure he would just to stir it up. Thank God!!!

Oh, and did no one else notice that Carol didn't try any of the hor d'oervres (sp?) that Stephen was munching away on? I saw a magazine with her on the cover that said she only eats raw, organic foods. No pizza rolls for Carol! No wonder she still looks so fabulous.

But as they run the previews for the two hour finale, it seems there is some boardroom showdown between Piers and Omarosa...maybe it was filmed before she left the show. Lets hope we don't see her mug very long!

I get the feeling that Donald brought Omarosa back FOR the confrontation. On Reality Remix, she said she hopes Trace wins, but see seemed to think Piers would come out on top. She did think Stephen would be happy if Piers lost. I saw in commercials that not only does Piers bring in Sarah Ferguson but also Simon Cowell. The country celebs Trace mentioned.. wow, I think the short time frame killed him, since so many top country stars would likely be out touring and have committments. Ronnie Milsap, good guy but not even close to cutting edge or recent.

Trace should have gotten Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney in there or George Strait and Willie Nelson....

I think the short time frame killed him, It says this weeks show is LIVE. So is the concert LIVE? If so, time frame was more than they are portraying.

Racs, I think the competition was filmed a few months back, but the "reunion" show is live.}

Trump, Piers and Trace were on the Today show this morning to promote tonight's finale. Piers seem very very happy. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but Piers was standing next to Trump, and Trace was on the end. Hope I'm totally off base and Trace wins.

I don't like Trace at all and hope Piers wins. Not that it matters because the charities are the true winners here.

The Celebrity Apprentice has been renewed by NBC, and the show's eighth season and the second celebrity season will debut next January, in 2009. It will follow the same format as the first celebrity season, and "will once again bring business-savvy celebrity contestants together working towards a greater goal - all celebrities will be competing in business driven tasks around New York City, using their fame along with their proven business acumen, and perhaps, their wealthy and high profile connections for an assist in winning challenges," according to an NBC press release. NBC VP Craig Plestis said in a press release, "This revved up installment of 'The Apprentice' has been a game changer for the series. … There's no other show like it to prove your business brain and we are already getting calls from high-profile celebrities who want to challenge themselves in Season 2." Executive producer Mark Burnett said, "Everywhere I go, people come up to me and ask about 'Celebrity Apprentice.' Viewers are clearly connecting, but beyond the terrific ratings, it's really the charities who are winning the most. Our celebrities have raised over a million dollars to date. We are so glad NBC has decided to continue this franchise." The current season will conclude with a live finale March 27 at 9.
