**Lily** – no, no rerun. There is an extra show next week (Wednesday at 8, 7 Central), but apparently it’s a “highlights” show. ---

I’ve missed the pass few weeks, but dayum…that wasn’t debating or arguing in the board room. That was a near cat fight. ---

Can I talk about the previews? WTF is up with Ivana? Or will we only get to see her panties on the pay-per-view version of the Apprentice? That being said, if Donald thinks that was a debate, he knows squat. ---

> [@LilyoftheValley](#): > > So…does anyone know if by any chance this show will be repeated?! I’ll try to read any replies here (while attempting to avoid spoilers), but dropping me an email would also be greatly appreciated. **Lily** , try searching on [www.tvguide.com/listings](http://www.tvguide.com/listings) for repeats. According to my area’s listings, it’s repeating several times on CNBC. YMMV of course. DC ---

It comes on Fridays on CNBC (twice). ---

> [@LilyoftheValley](#): > > So…does anyone know if by any chance this show will be repeated?! I’ll try to read any replies here (while attempting to avoid spoilers), but dropping me an email would also be greatly appreciated. CNBC lists THE APPRENTICE at 7pm (central time) Tuesday. But I don’t know if that’s a repeat of last week’s episode. (Logic says it is, however.) ---

Thanks everyone! ( **DoperChic** , that [tvguide.com](http://tvguide.com) link is pretty darn useful. It’s going in my bookmarks!) Looks like it will be on here on CNBC at 8 Eastern on Tuesday. I’m so excited, particularly given **Shirley** ’s comment! Meanwhile, back at the ranch – I am a dolt. Somehow my “show email address” got unselected. I didn’t even realize it at first when **Mama Tiger** posted what she did. I thought she was joking, because she’s emailed me several times regarding the Doper Mug Exchange! (Does that make it a whoosh both ways? 😉 ) ---

I propose a bonus episode: have Jennifer and Sandy compete to see who can better paint 200-foot walls with paint. Naked, of course. 😃 ---

I watched it! I watched it! Best line of the show was _definitely_ the Ivana Porsche wreck. Hah! Andy, Andy, Andaaay…$100 bribes but no pizza! WTF?! Have you ever had a job? Kelly was never my favorite person, but he’s been growing on me. I’m still waiting for Kevin to zoom up in his yellow Lamborghini and take me away… **Mullinator** , fabu job as always. But I’m wondering: do you put on a bow tie when you type the Raj Ratings? And the best part of this all – only 2 days until I get to see the next episode! Woohoo! ---

> [@Rainbowthief](#): > > They’re not the best, just the best looking and maybe the ones with the most intriguing backgrounds among the best looking. I was telling a friend the other day, how come only attractive people have been on the apprentice? The women this season all looked gorgeous and the guys look like male models. Some of the brightest business people I’ve known were really homely. My manager is going to apply for next season and since she happens to be a stunning knockout, I’m pretty sure she’ll be chosen. > > Andy deserved to be fired if nothing else for the incredibly tacky and condescending act of giving $100.00 bonuses to the design team, especially how he kept saying things like "You’re going home $100.00 richer! (Yay! :smack: ) Sandy has no chance in hell of winning because if Trump couldn’t look past the infinitely more capable Troy’s lack of a college education, he certainly won’t do it for someone who choked on a presentation so badly that she didn’t even seem to speak English. > > Ivana is a useless dolt who had miraculously excelled at one task, so she’s gone, and Jen’s looks won’t be enough to get the teflon queen the job, so it probably will be Kevin vs Kelly and if Kevin breaks into a mad sweat like he did during the Levi’s presentation, Kelly will coast to an easy win. There does seem to be a very strong focus on female lookers in the selection process, and less so but still evident, in the male selection process. I wonder if Trump is making those calls re who stays and who goes re the intial crew. ---

> [@LilyoftheValley](#): > > Andy, Andy, Andaaay…$100 bribes but no pizza! WTF?! Have you ever had a job? That was one of his biggest flubs. Studies have shown that engineers are motivated by a sense of appreciation and accomplishment more than by financial remuneration. I’m inclined to believe that creative and artistic types feel similarly. For them, I think that decent human treatment would ultimately matter more than a mere $100.
