As I was watching parts of last week's eppy, I was thinking..you know...Tana is going to win...she has it all together...lets hope she just keeps it together.

I like her and the guy with the glasses...my prediction for the final two

Two interesting Apprentice articles from Reality News Online:

"Apprentice 3" Finale Cut to an Hour, Viewers Breathe Sigh of Relief

and

First "Apprentice" Winner Bill Rancic Hears "You're Hired" Again .

I heard on the radio last week that there were 4 to 1 odds in Vegas that she(Tana) would win right behind Alex. The local media tends to keep up on her since she's from West Des Moines. Her husband is a weatherman on one of the local CBS station.

potential spoiler:








































I've heard that the final 2 are women. One from Magna and one from Net Worth so that would leave Tana and Kendra.

I keep hearing this theory, and while there may be something to it, I don't really buy into it, at least not at face value.

What he has to do is choose the best candidate, without regard to whether that person is a man or woman. If he doesn't do that, the basic credibility of the show (such as it is) is shot.

Bill and Kelly were clearly the best candidates in Season 1 and 2. This season, for my money, Tana is the best candidate (at least so far), so barring a major screw up, she should win -- because she is best, not because he needs to hire a woman.

As for Kendra, what exactly has she done so far? I haven't been (favorably or unfavorably) impressed.

As long as Carolyn Kepcher is sitting at the table next to Trump, I don't see much reason for him to worry about being labeled sexist because he hasn't hired a female Apprentice, unless a woman is clearly the best candidate.

Well, Tana and Kendra are the only two women left anyway. And technically, they're both Magna now, although Tana started out on Net Worth.

Go take a look at the show website. Tana started on MAGNA and is still on MAGNA, not Net Worth.

Tana does not have a degree...I believe Net Worth were the people who do not have a degree

You can see the weekly tracking of each candidate from the beginning - Tana originally began as a member of Net Worth, then switched to Magna in the "corporate restructuring".

Well, it's about time his ass got fired.

Let's talk about Kendra. I'm really not impressed by her -- I don't think she has good leadership skills AT ALL, but she did make a killer brochure.

No, Tana started out on NET WORTH (the non-degree team).

Remember how she had to go to that shabby apartment/travel agency to pick up the plane tickets for Las Vegas? That was for the "wild west" contest with Burger King that Net Worth won.

The website shows what team they are on RIGHT now, or what team they were on when they got fired. After all, Erin is shown as being on Net Worth (high school, nondegree team) and she is a lawyer. So the website does not show where they actually began.

My apologies! Silly me, I looked on the "Candidates" page & believed it! She is so sharp that I couldn't believe that she didn't have some college educatin'! Lord help me, it is hard to keep up! Thanks for the info.

I'm with you.

Kendra's brochure was great, showing very good marketing instincts and skills. But I saw little leadership ability -- she didn't lead her team, she did it herself, largely because she couldn't lead her team. A good leader would have (1) gotten her team on board with the concept, (2) seen that they were fading late at night (early in the morning) and dealt with it -- maybe by letting them get in some naps in shifts -- instead of just doing her "I appreciate your honesty and I am offended" schtick, and (3) wouldn't have been complaining that Tana was "hogging" the presentation because she would have already worked out how the presentation was going to go beforehand.

I was disappointed in Tana's "I'm used to getting sleep" routine, and her leaving the building. I expected better from her. But if someone isn't used to staying up to work all night, it's up to the PM to provide the motivation.

ETA: The other alternative available to Kendra, with regard to working through the night, would have been for her to tell Craig and Tana, "If you leave, don't bother coming back; you're off the task." Would have been risky, but I think Trump, Carolyn and George would have respected it.

Instead, she just shrugged her shoulders, rolled her eyes, and whined about getting no respect and doing it all herself.

I know I am posting this a little late...my computer is fried!:mad:

How disappointed was anyone after all the previews saying it isn't the boardroom but what happens afterward with someone saying "OMG!"? Was it just the fact that Chris cried or somthing else. I hated that....

Not disappointed, but only because I've learned not to put any trust into Apprentice teasers.
