be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,

posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Apprentice #6 Episode #1 East Coast Spoiler Thread" |
LAST EDITED ON 01-07-07 AT 10:36 PM (EST)Let's do a quick pre-season review. Number of threads in the main forum discussing the new thrilling, exciting, unbelievable changes to the show's format and gameplay, along with their effect on how things might actually play out: one. Total posts on that thread, including the starter: nine. Number of people interesting in writing a summary detailing all these new, thrilling, exciting, and unbelievable changes, not to mention the sparkling personalities who'll be dealing with them: according to the sign-up thread, zero. Predicted post total on the premiere ECST, given all of the above: one. Including the starter? You betcha. What Estee will be doing if this series isn't new, thrilling, exciting, and unbelievable in the non-svck way within the first ninety minutes: watching the first season DVD set for Avatar: The Last Airbender. And why? Because it has something Donald hasn't had a handle on for several seasons. Interesting, complex, and likable characters. Oh, and the plotting's about a thousand times better. Do you know who'd make a great Apprentice? Zuko. Not Aang. Too young, too impulsive, and the first time he tried any airbending, half the contestant's skulls would collapse.

So according to Donald's latest geniuses, West Hollywood is a very homosexual neighborhood, and the best way to get people in for car washes is to send a group of shirtless men out to walk along the curbs with cardboard signs advertising free lunches. Gee, let's hope that's not code for anything.Oops. Police officer. Guess it was code. Well, at least Heidi's team is getting some (hoped for) high-volume, small-sales traffic. Frank is stuck up the river without a paddle, rowing on a boat made of his own signs. So it's about eight and a half by eleven inches. And sinking fast. Someone does point this out, and he dashes off to get signs -- but that just means he's not there when Ivanka shows up to ask questions. Yes, only Ivanka. Trumpian #2 is out of the budget. Meanwhile, Martin is exhausted. Putting on that sweater really wore him out.

Yeah, we're in sync on this one. By tribe standards, they're starting eight Rewards up. And they're still complaining about it. Wimps.

I agree. It's as if they've never camped in their life. They are on lawn in LA, for crying out loud. They aren't exactly in the back woods!

And as expected, Heidi's team -- still no corporate name, even if it was in the credits -- wins, but by a smaller margin than expected: around a hundred dollars. Still, it's enough: Heidi is PM for the next task, will sit in on the loser's Boardroom and give Donald her ignored opinion, plus her team lives in the mansion until they lose. Frank's team lives in outdoor tents with flashlights, porta-showers, non-draining sinks, grills, and lots of other stuff any Survivor contestant would kill for. They'll also get shot in black and white, whether they like it or not. Tim, in a night discussion of the task, thinks Frank should be fired. Sadly, he made the mistake of telling Frank, who is ready to go. Now. He meant 'into the Boardroom'. Really. Oh, and for some reason, all the members of the winning team will share a single indoor bedroom. Well, so much for hook-ups...

As Ivanka shows why she's an improvement on her father. In paraphrase, 'Look, they knew each other for five minutes. They're not sure of each other's capabilities. Given that, how well would anyone have done at this?' It's the Question Of Questions for a first task, and it's about time someone got it out in the open. Well done, Ivanka.Frank, however, is drowning. You can actually see prior boots reflected in his face as he gives up the gasps, especially in the pleas to Donald for another chance. He's bringing Tim (for calling him out) and Martin (for being Martin, who's already been IDed by Donald as being on the pompous side) back to the Boardroom with him. Most of Frank's team thinks Frank should go. Stephanie's okay with pretty much everyone going. Donald promises one firing -- unless, of course, he changes his mind. Heidi may not be able to convince Donald of anything, but she's getting some major insights into her rivals right now -- and that may be the best Reward of all.

17. ""Get your a$$es back in here"" |
Donald calls the boys back in the boardroom.That Frank dude is crappin his pants LOL. He sounds like he's going to start crying. I'm kind of enjoying this, after not watching since season 1. Is it just me, or are Donald's eyes really bloodshot? Ivanka seems pretty bright. Her boobs were well done. She has a very sexy voice. Rolly made this.

So who's fired? Martin. Why? Because the silver platter has a hole in it. Tim gets dismissed early when Frank says he wouldn't fire him, so the ESPN interest is saved for another week. Ivanka listens to Frank flounder horribly (including complimenting his rival's intelligence), then notes that Martin, for lack of better words, remains a pompous (bleep). Pompus (bleeps) are not welcome in the Trump Organization. Unless they run it. And have the right hair. Frank does have energy, he does have dedication, and he's willing to sign over all free will to Donald. Martin will probably want tenure. Oh, and there's something about Martin wanting to hit the bathroom during introductions that was in the first segment, but there were eighteen people being introduced in three minutes and how much do you want me to tell you people, anyway? So Martin's fired because Donald listened to someone else -- he calls it a hard decision, but you know, we have to consider the source and track record. No shot of Frank walking into the tent and zipping the door behind him. And Martin, in final non-taxi confessional, thinks it's better to be out first than third or fourth.Martin is a professor. Obviously not of math... Next week: swimsuit design, contestants wearing them, and the winning team is -- exempt from the next task? Really? Then who does the losing team compete against? Raro? Verdict after ninety minutes: Show: unimproved. Ivanka: may be better than Carolyn. Contestant pool: still mostly stupid. Series to date: feh.

Quite simply...Frank is ANNOYING. Frank is LOUD. Frank is OBNOXIOUS. You know, I had to turn down the volume whenever Frank spoke. UGH...why oh why am I still watching this show? I miss NYC. BTW...Is Ivanka a femme bot? Got Tribe? I did! Are you on the list?
