The Apprentice: Martha Style!

kddani · #1 02-03-2005, 12:43 PM

What does everyone think of Martha Stewart being the new Apprentice boss?

I think it's a good change, I think the novely of Trump was wearing off, and there will be a freak curiousity to see if she's gone even more off the rocker after getting out of the pen.

I'm all for it, I like Martha.

I love Martha! I've never really watched the Apprentice w/ Trump, but if Martha was on there I would watch.

I was under the impression that they're launching a new series with Martha, and that the Donald would keep on being the original boss.

That sucks, Martha should get to fire people.

But I think it's a great idea. I mean, if Martha ever goes to jail again, the apprentice can take her place.

Good idea, I'm getting tired of Donald. I'd like to see one with Oprah Winfrey.

Alright, who watched this last night?

I hate MS, but I watched it to see what it was all about. I ended up liking it.

I really liked the task they did, and am sooooo glad Jeffrey got sent home. He got on my nerves.

Mr. AXiD670 pointed out how compared to the other Apprentice, this one was all upbeat and happy, whereas the regular one has these dark undertones. I told him it was like Susie Sorority got her own Apprentice series.

I'll keep watching. I don't have a favorite contestant yet, but I'm sure that will change soon.

Jeffrey and Jim both got on my nerves. I was hoping one of the two of them would leave and was glad it was Jeffrey. Honestly, if I was working on a project with him, with the way he was not letting anyone get an opinion in, I would have thrown something at him.

ME TOO!

It was so funny how Jeffrey got annoyed that Dawn was so...laid back (to put it nicely), but yet they're on the CREATIVE team. Mr. AXiD670 works for a marketing firm, and we were talking about how the creative people, in general, just don't have that urgency to rush around, and that they're just out there personality-wise. Dawn definitely fit that stereotype.

I like her.

ETA: I did NOT like the "corporate" team name -- Primarius. Ick. I really liked Matchstick's name though.

We really enjoyed it -- Ms. MysticCat more than the Trump Apprentice, I think.

Jeffrey definitely needed to go, and Jim -- who would get on every one of my last nerves if I actually had to work with him -- needs to go next week.

We were commenting that this one has more potential for false senses of security among the contestants. With Trump, his egomaniacal blather is pretty much up front -- what you see is what you get.

With Martha, she's all about the hospitality and the friendliness, which can make the contestants forget she is also a very good business woman who's not going to fool around.

The task was really interesting. Funny how the "corporate" folks did much better than the "creative" team on this very creative task. I do like the name "Matchstick," though not caring to much for the people who make up "Matchstick."

We were howling at the "Dear Jeffrey" letter at the end.

RedRoseSAI · #12 09-22-2005, 10:42 AM

I missed it.

Anyone know if it will be on again?

AnonAlumna · #13 09-22-2005, 12:47 PM

I missed it too! I had to watch the ANTM rerun! I can't stand Martha, but I think the show would be more interesting to watch then The Donald one! I'll have to catch it next Wednesday!

tunatartare · #14 09-22-2005, 12:50 PM

I was so glad that Jeffrey got fired. He was so annoying. Hopefully Jim will be the next to leave.

Argh that was the one part I didnt like. I know that every new reality show needs its one charactistic component but a letter are you kidding me? I liked how they are using it in the ads too.."and who will get Martha's letter next week?"
