It's compulsive viewing especially when the losing team are in the boardroom assasinating the characters of the others in a bid to survive.

Never seen it but after seeing him on piers Morgan the other night he looks like quite a funny character. Might give it a go.

That's an excellent article!
"The Apprentice is a brilliant live action cartoon, a kind of mini-Olympics for morons."
"The brilliance of The Apprentice rests on the vast gulf between the contestants' Gordon Gecko acts and the reality of their inevitably Mr Bean-esque performances in the challenges."
"The Apprentice is as predictable as a Wile E Coyote cartoon. Just as he'd light the ACME rocket wrongly and end up with it exploding in his face, we'll watch The Apprentice wannabes bicker, backstab and show the negotiating acumen of a piglet in a slaughter house. The enjoyment rests in how low they can go, the vast difference between their pre-show claims about being "hyper-achievers" and the boardroom grovelling for a second chance."
Let the games commence!
(Let's hope they all give it 110%.)

..one of them is currently being done for fraud IIRC. Not known at the time the programme was made, tho.
Surprised it took so long to happen really.

I'll be watching. It's hilarious watching how utterly clueless and useless they are after the bigging up they give themselves.
Some of the job titles and business experience they claim is often utterly false: two years ago the winner was supposedly running a property empire, which turned out to be him renting his flat out. Mind you, his demo on one of those TV channels selling cheap tat to the gormless was priceless. He was screwing the legs on to a small exercise trampoline, but he was doing it right in front of his groin and it looked like he was playing with himself!

AMS was speaking about the new series this morning. He said that they are still making the same mistakes. He added that they obviously haven't bothered to watch the previous 5 series.
Tonights is making and selling sausages. Could never be as funny as the one where they bought cheap cheese in Makro and then tried selling it to the French.

Not for me. I can't bear the back biting, and general incompetence.
I'll admit that Strictly Come Dancing has wormed its way into my head, on a 'I'll watch it if I'm in' basis. At least that shows people learning to get better at something. Although I don't enjoy the judges comment bit, too formulaic. And Brucie makes me cringe.

I dont like this show, it used to be filmed in my town upto two seasons ago yet it was constantly showing london landmarks like citygroup and canary wharf then cutting to inside a building making you think the offices where there.. when they was really in Essex.
then at the end after they got fired they walk down the stairs outside the building and got in london cabs and drove away in the city centre?
shoulda shown them get on the train into london then got in the cab like they (probably) really did. xD

i always think there should be a mole of a normal person of average intelligence but with no business experience (masquerading as one such person) who could show how stupid the rest of them really are.

This isn't new but if you haven't seen it before I can pretty much guarantee it'll raise a chuckle - enjoy:

You had to love Dan's alpha male management style. To be fair, that's what many male sales managers are like. They equate motivation to yelling at people and telling them to work harder.
