Apprentice season 3 premeire 1/20/05

Tonight is the start of season 3 of the Apprentice. Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more!

For those who came in late, this season the starting teams are somewhat different. Whereas seasons 1 and 2 started out with men vs. women, season 3 starts out as Book Smarts (college and graduate degrees) vs. Street Smarts (self-made people, without degrees). As the ads say, which side do you root for?

Donald Trump has previously favored the college-educated contestants over the non-collegiate contestants. That implies that the Street Smarts team starts out as the underdogs. But anything can happen in the concrete jungle....

Ben, honey, ya gotta check page two -- did you really think I wouldn't have started a thread already?

Even though Twickster's was first, this one had the date in the title. So, I am going with Ben's. (Ok....I already have this one open....!)

I must say, I don't like "theme" sides. The best thing about these types of shows is that there is interaction between different types of people. I like to see an Ivy leaguer interact with the street hustler.

I hope there is a switch relatively soon.
