The Apprentice -- 2/10/05

Yay! It’s Thursday!

The task tonight is to film an ad (for what?) – and one team’s ad offends the Donald mightily. Worse than Raj’s “go to war against the scummy criminals who infest your city” ad? Hard to imagine.

So – whaddya think. Book smarts or street smarts?

Well, since the ads would seem to indicate that he pulled both teams into the BR for lambasting, I’m guessing they both screwed up. The Donald has no problem pointing out your mistakes and shortcomings in front of others, it’s not his typical MO to deliberately bring in extra audience for the sole purpose of witnessing your humiliation. In that case, though, I’d have to say that one team screwed up way worse than the other (they can’t both have the most disgusting thing Carolyn’s ever seen, after all). One team leaves the line three states behind, the other team is toeing it hard.

That, or the ad is grossly overinflated and calling the teams into the boardroom is just for the standard four-tasks-in reshuffling. Really, my money’s on the reshuffling, but the idea of both teams doing badly enough for the Hair to ream them out just sounds so dramatic.

They would NEVER trick us with ads. What are you saying?

I’m not ready for the teams to be split up. :frowning: I bought too much into the Streets vs Crypt–I mean, Magnas.

It sounds like another chance for Michael to obsess about beautiful European models again.

Body wash? Oh man – we’ve got oodles of room for seriously inappropriate here!

Body wash?

Oooooo… I’m thinking one team films a naked male model rubbing rubbing it all over himself, then pastes Trump’s face over the model’s face for the final ad.

Tagline: “Dove Body Wash. It’s Yooge!”

Yanno, zut, these peeks into your fantasy life are sometimes … oogy. :wink:

Anyone else seen this little frivilous lawsuit?

Bump!

Doesn’t seem like a frivilous lawsuit to me.

Looks like no one set Danny up…They truly hated Michael. That’s strangely re-assuring.

I liked seeing Michael get sorted out by Bren. He needed that.

I thought Erin was going to start fucking that model right there in front of the cameras.

I really like Bren. But I can’t see any way that they can keep him after that porn. Bah humbug.

The running joke was funny – wasn’t it that he looked fabulous at the finish line? Too bad it got crappy. And the actress was right – it’s BODY wash.

Language, dear.

But yeah, she did seem a bit … enthusiastic.

Okay, maybe I’m not up on Hollywood, yo, but… Why didn’t they fire that actress and use Angie or something? I mean, maybe if they had Play or Pay contracts, it might be a loss, but man, she was a bitch.

Raj’s tribute to fascism is looking pretty good.

And Donald decides to mess with the rules and bring both teams in to the boardroom.

The porno team deserves to have someone fired. The marathon ad was, I think, a good concept; they just didn’t pull it off. But the porno ad was completely idiotic. Really, what were they thinking?

God, you’re right. How sad that I miss the good ole days of the NYPD.

“I don’t want that product, and I don’t think I want my husband to have it, either.”

:smiley:

Honestly, I thought both were excellent concepts, poorly executed. A good re-shoot, especially on the runner one, would work.

Wow.

Is it me, should Trump just cancel this whole season right now?

Man, double suckage. John is right to be pissed that they booted his original joke like that, and Bren…I like him but how could they have thought a porn angle was the way to go for a mass product like that?

Wow, since they both sucked, maybe there’s hope for Bren yet. He sure saved the day with that actress.

And I TOLD them the actress was right about the face!
