I'm glad Martin got the boot, but Frank annoyed me to no end as well...

I'm shocked that the winning PM is in the boardroom helping Donald fire someone from the losing team. But overall, it looks good, as usual! ANd he could have fired both people tonight. They were both annoying and awful.

I was hoping for a double firing. Maybe Frank will relax and not be so hyper next week.
Does Ivanka scare anyone else?

It was lame. What is this tent-city thing? Is "The Donald" trying to imitate Survivor's Exile Island? It looks to me like he's getting desperate to get his ratings up. I think he just shot himself in the foot with this one! What a shame, this used to be a really good show. Now, it's a joke.
Speaking of jokes, bet Rosie's having a good laugh over how stupid the show has become.
I was quite impressed with Heidi. She really got her team organized and enthused. Heidi knew her market and went for it. It paid off in the end.
I would have fired both Frank and Martin. Frank doesn't deserve to be there.
It was quite obvious from the beginning of the show that Martin was going to get the boot. The producers tend to give the most face time to the person who will later get fired.
The casting directors obviously are pandering to the male audience. Nearly all of the women are gorgeous.. not just pretty, but drop dead gorgeous... and the men... ugh!
And next week, the task is to design bikinis. Are we now going after the Hooters crowd? From what I've read, the reward is a night at the Playboy mansion. Yes, the Donald is desperate.
And before each commercial break, we get treated to that annoying contest about tent city. Ugh. As an aside... Just wondering who is stupid enough to shell out 99 cents per call when you can enter on-line for free?
I miss Carolyn and George. Ivanka is too stiff.
I am not impressed with this season so far.

Me too (about the double firing). Frank reminds me of a candidate from a previous season that could never shut up and would interrupt Trump when he was about to fire someone, but I can't think of who it was. I think it was a female candidate, but I can't remember right now....(eta: it was Summer)
In other news: Los Angeles is pretty warm...how bad can living in a tent really be? The only thing that would suck is that you couldn't iron your clothes nor hang them up. So, they'd be all wrinkled and stuff like that. Also, moving in and out of the house constantly (for winning or losing) would be a huge PITA.

That's the best twist this season. Tent City -- eh. Staying project manager until you lose -- bad idea.
Ivanka -- love you, but you’re no Carolyn
Heidi -- impressive; early bets are on you
Martin -- somebody please tell this drip of water not to make dress shirts out of picnic table cloths.
Frank – For the love of all that is holy, shut up already! They saw "fire." I saw a wildfire just kept spreading with absolutely no sense of direction or purpose.
The Donald – You’re still a joke.

I'm just glad they moved it to Sunday night. I'm usually home that night.
Martin was a big blowhard.

Seriously I would have fired Frank. Frank did a shitty job as a PM and wouldn't shut the hell up. He reminded me way to much of Sam from S1. Not that Martin actually did any better. He was pretty lazy as well.
Actually now that I think about it I would have fired both of their butts.
I really think it is interesting having the opposing teams PM come in and be a part of the boardroom. It definately gives the team an advantage.
I really hope that Frank gets the boot sooner rather than later. Frank is really annoying as hell!

I think it will be nice to see what the tasks will be like. LA is very different from NYC so the nature of the tasks HAD to change. But I agree, staying PM til you lose is bad.

I also was hoping for a double firing. Frank is really going to work my nerves this season. I hope he goes soon.
I'm not fond of the tent city thing.

I thought it was a toss up, either of them could have been fired and it wouldn't have mattered to me. I miss Carolyn!! Another board I am on compared Ivanka to Carolyn and said that Ivanka said more in the first episode then Carolyn would say ALL season. I totally agree with that!!
Do we know if any of the Apprentice's are Greek?

Okay, I finally watched this last night and I liked it much more than I thought I would. The tent thing worried me, but it turned out to be an interesting twist -- although these guys sure are wussy to be carrying on and moaning about spending time at a killer campsite. I mean, you lost and it's not ideal, but holy crap stop your bitching and enjoy this experience that nobody in the world gets to have and check out that view, mmkay?
Where's George?

Everyone in my family (East Coast & West Coast) is boycotting The Apprentice because of Trump's "war" with Rosie O'Donnell. Even my husband, who is not a Rosie fan & DEFINITELY not a fan of The View, will not watch The Apprentice.
So, I have to watch it when it's rerun on CNBC.
Oh, and as for where's george.... www.wheresgeorge.com! hee hee!
