Three rah rahs and hoot hoots for Marilu who didn't listen to Oma and took some initiative of her own!

Thanks Pamy for your thoughts!! I've also tuned out the Apprentice - it didnt stop me from searching for spoilers!! LOL - and the spoiler was wrong on who got the first boot - imagine!! (there is a betting site with odds to the winner - but again, its been wrong before!!) I have no opinion of Omarosa, nope, none at all!

I enjoyed the first episode. I want Omarosa gone ASAP! The way Carol Alt was is exactly how she is (But I expect her to get more vicious) my husband and her boyfriend played on the same team together 2 seasons ago. She's nice but very standoffish. She never sat with us other wives or anything at the games. Though she was great at team functions. I hope she suceeds

I really like Gene Simmons, he is my pick to win. Loved his line about Omarosa "She's like a cockroach that can't be killed" lol. Marilu Henner is my fav woman, she is smart,savy and while sweet can hold her own. She is my second pick. Omarosa is rude beyond belief-I hate when people talk loudly over everyone else the way she did last night. I do think she is good for the show however would love to see her go soon.

I really think that with the editting we are missing something big here. Because none of the girls said it was only Omarosa's idea to not use their celebrity to sell the hot dogs. It could have went down something like this: O: When I was on the Apprentice, DT didn't want the girls to use sex to sell. Girls: Okay then what is our plan? Probably as a group they decided to not use their celebrity to sell these hot dogs. O: Okay so we are agreed "We will NOT use our celebrity to sell the hot dogs." I think Marilu would have said something if it had been otherwise. Believe you me....I wanted O to be the first to go, so I'm trying to make sense of why the girls didn't defend against this major point.

After DT decided to fire Tiffany, I think any strong comments made about <77> decision not to use their celebrity would have been left on the cutting room floor.

LOL at tigerfan who proudly displays his knowledge of porn LOL!!
If I recall correctly Omarosa talked about playing a 'part' when she was on surreal life. She really was Wonderful with the handicapped Kids/ young adults. It was a wall came down and you could tell she was different. I think it's interesting that so many of you say "Omarosa is good TV" but yet 99.9% of you (me included) can't stand her. That's not good TV. That's being forced to watch someone you dislike because someone ELSE thinks she's good TV. THAT is exactly how I felt about Evel Dick and his 'act' for good tv....which many people loved.

I loved the first Apprentice.. liked the second one... then I gave up on it after that I was never a big Gene Simmons fan till' I seen "School of Rock" .. the reality show he did on VH1 were he schooled a bunch of uptight British kids at at a private school about rock. Loved him on "Family Jewels" the reality show he did with his kids and Shannon Tweed. I have to say he has raised two great kids. He is the reason I decided to watch Apprentice again. I am so glad I did! Not a big Marilou fan.. but I have to admit I like her a lot on this episode. She was the stand out female this week but I have to say I really am rooting for Carol Alt. I like that she doesn't take Omarosas crap and stands up to her. I believe Omarosa should of got the boot.. but of course Trump wants her there to stir things up. In the beginning of the episode he said " No one likes you Omarosa but me.. and I am the one that counts" As for Playboy Bunny not putting up a fight, I think it was edited to look that way.. check out the deleted scenes at nbc( you can also watch full episodes there if you miss a show.) http://www.nbc.com/The_Celebrity_Apprentice/video/#cat=31692 Someone also mentioned earlier on in this thread there is tension between Gene and Trump because of Trumps daughter.. there is a deleted scene that might clear that up.

hmmmmmph, Gene needs to clue in that the younger generation really doesnt give a hoot LOL anyways, that deleted scene #6 was shown on the tv show in total. I thought that Tiff just seemed unable to hold her own and I didnt see anything that indicated she was putting up a fight. shrugging, shaking head and rolling eyes is not 'scoring a point' against omarosa. oh well, I think that this may be a great show due to the Egos involved.

I'm not fond of Omarosa, but clearly Trump likes having her around and he's the one who decides who stays and who goes.

I swear I thought I seen a clip of Tiffany being more assertive.. dang now I cant find it. Omarosa insisted it was all about the product. No 'celebirtism" or having a " sponsor"( Hugh Hefner)no flaunting the womanly goods. Gee.. I guess Tiffany was screwed either way. It made me wonder that maybe because Omarosa is not a real celebrity that she did not want the other women to have a advantage over her?

Well .. if Marilu hadn't sold two bottles of water and one hotdog for 11K ... the women's group would have only sold 6K worth of "product" .. and imagine how that would have stacked up to the 52K of the mens team .. (would have liked to see Om try and get out of that one!) (Would have liked Donald to point that out in the boardroom and questioned Om on it!)

I finally watched my DVR of the show. Can I say that I like Omarosa even less than before? It's quite obvious that she is trying to present a different image of herself (as in "I'm so far above all this") and it comes across as really fake. She really did treat Tiffany with a lot of condescension (and Carol, too). And then she flip flopped... don't use your celebrity, but we lost because she didn't use her celebrity? WTH? Trump should've fired her as PM. Since he didn't, I can only assume that Trump wants to play on her level. And it's a level I'd prefer to stay out of, thank you. <> She is not a "star" and the only "celebrity" she has is not any kind that should be encouraged. Bleah1!!!

one could argue that more people would recognize Oma than most of those women. Looking at the faces I would have only known Marilu. After knowing the names I still am only familar with Nadia and Carol. So for me and I am sure many others Oma is the most recognizable. Maybe Oma didnt even realize that herself. I have decided to watch Oma as if I am watching a soap character, that way she doesn't irritate me, she just amuses me

Once again I find myself ITA-ing a Costa post. Get out of my head woman! Grin. Or should I say great minds and... uh never mind. Just keep on making sense and being brilliant. Although ITA with PAMY that Om is probably one of the most recognizable faces for fans of this show, maybe even the most recognizable. LOL

Since Trump is the only one show likes her (loved his comments), why not have her on the Board? Him, his kids, and wildcard O. I might want to watch that!

Good point Pamy. Omarosa's face is probably the most recognizable. Marilou's maybe, but she has not been on screen much since Taxi and her face has changed since then. And even from the mens' group. The only one I would have known would be Gene S. and that is only cuz of that Jewels show.

I recognized: gene simmons, stephen baldwin, Pierce (america's got talent), Omo & Marilou. I've heard the names of Nadia & Carol but wouldn't have known them by their faces. The rest are total unknowns to me.

FYI they are showing repeats on cnbc on saturdays. just saw the show and quick opinions... potential troublemakers omarosa, piers and vinny. im sure tito cringed on the prenup talk since jenna is mega rich. this show is gene's to lose. do you realize how much kiss merchandise is out there and most of that is gene. he really knows how to market product. very happy to see Jennie Finch on the show, she is a softball legend. final four prediction: gene, tito, marilu and jennie seemed obvious that omarosa was the one to go due to not wanting to use their celebrity but was kept on for drama.
