Man, tonight's episode was boring.

I don't even have anything to be critical of. It was that boring.

Really? I thought several people really dropped the ball-Nick not researching the companies (even throwing a kind of temper tantrum about being above it all and too good), and Omarosa when she kept suggesting people buy a "few" (or even *one*!). I bet her shins were (deservedly) black and blue after that event! I was surprised that Nick got away as easily as he did in the board room. He seemed to skate through, whereas the female really got hammered. Not to mention the other guy turning on her (Bill?). I didn't see last week, but he seemed bitter towards her about something.

Heck, I thought it was a really good show! Like others have said, I thought Troy and Amy shined. I really did not like Nick or Omarosa this show. Nick seemed to be pouting a little too much.

JMHO, though!

I thought that Omarosa was deliberately screwing up. It seems to me that she wanted to go to the boardroom and hopefully get rid of Heidi. That girl has to go. I cant stand her.

Meggieprice: They had to sell "Trump Ice" (bottled water). Versacorp lost. Ereka was fired.

Highlighter: I wish I had your enthusiasum! Remember when Versacorp went to the club (or whatever it was) and the owner goes, "This isn't rocket science; it's water." He looked irritated and unimpressed. That's how I felt while watching this episode. :-)

Highlighter, ITA that Omarosa kept low-balling. Shoot, I wanted to kick her myself! Doesn't she know the art of negotiation?? And Nick was just running rough-shod over the customer. I wouldn't buy a stick of gum from him!

Bill turned on her because that's exactly what she did to him last week. He saw through her plan to use him to get rid of Nick. I actually thought that Nick handled himself with confidence in the boardroom even though he didn't do well in the mission.

Was Donald being sarcastic with Bill about not sticking up for himself in the boardroom? Got kinda scared for Bill for a second.

Omarosa needs an out of body experience to see how she is acting with that crew because she has no clue how much of a disease she is.

Funny you should say that, Arm. She did an interview in the last couple of days and she said after seeing herself, that yes, she has an attitude problem.

The entire show is one boring yawn. It has turned into an epic commercial for the Trump empire. Sounds like some advertising agency came up with the idea of the show as a form of advertisement for the Donald's ego. He's certainly getting his money's worth, probably rather cheaply compared to the cost of commercial time on TV, too.

I thought the show was great. Finally getting good now that the "goofs" are gone (Tammy, Sam, etc) and the claws are coming out. I think it gets better each week. Glad to see that witch Ereka gone. Saw her on Today and she was really defensive, pointing the finger at Nick.

I will guess the other witch Katarina goes next week. I bet they even out the teams again and that Amy gets picked.

Julieboo, I saw her on the Today show too. I guess it was no real surprise, she's always been the finger-pointing type in this game.

She sure didn't have anything nice to say about Omarosa either. Not that I thought she would though.

I'm looking forward to seeing Katrina go too. Something about that girl just rubs me the wrong way....And I know a thing or two about rubbin'!

I want Omarosa gone next!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe she goes in to sell water and ends up getting her face made up. This girl had priorities all right. The word DIVA comes to mind with this one.

Omarosa is so completely obnoxious that I'm beginning to think she must be a "plant". Maybe she's Obnoxious Fiance Steve's real life wife.

I'm right with you Highlighter. I love this show. I think it's great. These folks really crack me up. I wish he could fire 2 at a time. I was ready for Erika and Nick to go. Katrina amazed me with her mouth diarrhea. All she had to do is keep her mouth shut. But no, she had to bring in the friendship issue. She can go next.

That Omarosa is too much. I would HATE to have to deal with her.


Go Troy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got the feeling DT was pissed Katrina wasn't in BR so he could fire her. I think he despises her for some reason.

I haven't posted here, but I've been following the show. Erika/Katrina are like a single, twoheaded, prissy, humorless, WASP entity. I even had trouble telling them apart at first - they even look alike. I took a great deal of vicarious pleasure in Erika's termination. The only thing that could possibly please me more would be watching Omarosa get axed.
The only ones who actually seem to have any business savvy are Troy, Heidi and Amy.

I agree Adven. Erika and Katrina both need to buy a clue. They are like children trying to play in the big leagues. Definitely not management material. Omarosa seems to feel the need to portray a strong, tough young woman who can duke it out, but she has only succeeded in being abrasive and dismissive and so totally full of herself that she has lost the ability to take a step back, take a breath, and realize that at this stage in her life, trying to emulate someone like Trump is a losing proposition.

He's got the bucks and power that enable him to get away with that behaviour. I wonder if, as a young man, he made his way in the world with that kind of attitude as a starting point. I have a feeling he was more like Troy who seems to have the ability to think on his feet and schmooze when the situation requires it without appearing disingenuous.

The show is now becoming two separate games: winning the challenge and then personal and professional scheming in the Boardroom. True to Life.

I have to say I was disappointed in Nick & my opinion of him went down somewhat

I had a feeling during the final showdown that Erika would be the one to get the axe. DT & Carolyn & George were clearly ticked that she let Katrina escape the chopping block... you know she was the one they saw as the weakest link. Since Erika didn't give them Katrina as a firing option I think they let it bite her.

I'm really liking Troy... how adorable was that with the Statue of Liberty & mentioning his beautiful wife! And he was so great with Heidi & Amy in the copter, they clearly felt comfy in his company.

I noticed on the recap that DT said he 'outsmarted' Katrina, rather than 'duped' her. In other words he didn't characterize it as unethical, but SMART... I think Troy is still on track! :-)

My opinion of Bill has actually gone up a bit. He has *some* business smarts & seems to have an inkling of how to handle himself professionally. I was glad to see him dish it back to Erika Amazing that she could call that 'selling [her] out.' She disregarded his (good) suggestions during the task, then put him on the chopping block (instead of Katrina)... and he's supposed to sit there & sing her praises LOL??

I noticed last week btw with the apartment lease task that Bill said 'it's a woman's world' So I can forgive his 'boy's world' comment, maybe it was pulled out of context & he's fond of the phrase regardless of gender

I was glad that it was Ericka that got fired. She hasn't learned anything since the first show when she was project manager.

I think it will be Troy and Heidi. I just have a feeling that the Donald likes these two best.

Loved loved loved last night when Amy made those comments about Omarosa and her injury and how they were all laughing at her behind her back with the way she was overblowing it. Didn't they say last week that she was hit with a piece of plaster and then Omarosa was talking about how she was hit by a chunk of cement last night! Perception is reality, but puhleezh!

Saw Ereka on the Today show and she said that Omarosa has made statements in the press lately that she was being misedited. Ereka laughed and said that she felt the editing was being too kind to Omarosa and that she was actually alot worse than she was being portrayed. Can't wait to hear all the juicy dirt on that!

Omarosa gotta gosa and soon! Love Amy and Troy and hope they are the final two.
