Well, well...one day out of the gate and already we get to see nude shots of one of the women. (But the jpg is incredibly small. Where do people find that stuff?) Thanks, as always, Wilson.

Realfan: I think Bersacorp sounds more serious and gives the impression of being more solid and no-nonsense. This could be a good thing. Protege is much more flashy and memoriable.

Protege sounds like a Cosmetics Co or Clothing Line

Or a euphemism for mistress. Disappointed me that the women came up with that one.

Just a note about Kristi Frank, in today's paper. She owns two residential properties on the beach in Santa Monica as well as a trendy restaurant. She is 30 and resides in Bel Air. I thought the show was terrific..as entertainment. With knowledge of Trump's wandering eye, I'm sure all the ladies are using the feminine tactics to their advantage. The men, however, are bound to follow their leader and wear the suit, tie and white shirt, which can make them more noticeable (and rather "stiff" looking) in different parts of the City. As the article I read in the paper stated...this is one of the classier reality shows to feed the fad." Some of these people are already making a Mllion...now they're looking to make a Billion. On the local news last night Katrina Campins (who is already in the top 3% of RE agents nationwide) was seen watching the show in a Coral Gables restaurant. I doubt, if she were the winner, she'd be hanging out in So. Florida.

I predict that the "girls" won't last very long. From what we saw from the edited show last night I didn't see any true leadership qualities in any of the "girls". A true leader is adaptable and isn't threatened by someone having a turn at leading a project. These girls were rude to one another and showed very little class or maturity. Whereas the guys for the most part happily propped up the chosen leader for this particular mission. I think the guys realized that everyone will get a turn and that this would set a precedent of cooperation and team goals for the future leaders and missions. It was disheartening to see how quickly the girls turned to flirting and sexuality to sell the lemonade. This wouldn't get then very far in the boardroom. Since each team has a chaperone I'm sure Trump will get the nitty gritty low down. So far this group doesn't strike me as very savvy. I didn’t get the same sense from the guys. Sam could be entertaining in very very small doses. None of the guys stood out except for Sam and I’m not sure it will work out for him in the end. They guys did much better managerially compared to the girls. I understand that the dollar and cents is the bottom line but in this case it was a distorted reality and the girls better have some sense of this fact.

Loved this show! Wasn't gonna watch, but did and loved all the dynamics about it. What amazed me is that once the project manager was decided and the task was at hand, the women reverted back to high school. Cattiness, Crying, and Bickering all within the first 15 minutes. I was amazed. It just seemed like the guys (although the location was just awful), had a better plan, but not all the necessary tools (if ya know what I mean). I am curious to see how the women handle the next task at hand. Sam was a riot. That being said...don't like the guy. I deal with men like him all day long...It was like deja vue watching television. Guys like him are the sole reason I hate to receive phone calls at home. On the flip side, he had that man intrigued with the lemonade proposition and he also had the right idea with the woman selling lemonade He just picked the wrong man to try this out on. The whole apartment was over the top. My exe's uncle is a Forbes 400 from old old money. Their home in Dallas is absolutely georgous, but not over the top. Very toned down with a few peices that are incredible. They don't flaunt their money. It reminded me of one of the old Rockefeller Mansions with all the furnishings shoved into a space a fourth of the size. I will be watching but will have to decide on AI III or this (or I could just TIVO).

The Donald should have watched the Queer Eye episode where the straight guy threw away his toupee. Or his can afford to buy a really good one.

Thanks Realfan. Both names sound good in their own way. They kind of each fit the group that they belong to.

Ha Ha! LOL Vsmart! I like the show, the worst thing about it is Trump's hair! With Trump remarking on Regis and Kelly this morning that he was having a bad hair day today, he HAS to know his hair always looks bad! I heard that his comb-over takes 1 1/2 hr. to do.

I just loved this show! I think the the guy who wrote the column about 50 messages back on this list has it all wrong ... we still admire success, even if it wears a funny toupee! Ah, wouldn't I like to see DT in the morning, when he has a good case of bed-hair! The young entrepreneurs are intriguing ... all successful in their fields, now thrown into the ring to compete ... it'll be fun to watch them.

I don't think Protege is a bad name at all. Isn't that what everyone is trying to win? The right to be DT's "protege". Pretty smart if you ask me! Versacorp sounds rather bland IMHO! It doesn't explain their goal nor their product. They are "protege's"......Well, some of them!

well Mark Burnett knew about Kristi's past...in fact, he told a reporter from "Inside Edition": “You putting it on TV can only help my ratings....I wasn’t sure how long it would take you to find out. I should have called you myself.” Speaking of ratings, the show drew about 27 million people....It won the 8:30-9 timeslot, lost to CSI from 9-10....but had better demographics.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned that quick shot we got of Sam taking pills before the board room meeting. Maybe he was taking Advil or something, but considering the way he was acting once he got in front of DT, I was sure he had taken an extra dose of some sort of medication and that he better cut back on the stuff.

could have been valium for all we know. We may have been treated to the kinder gentler Sam.
