The Apprentice

And I'm eternally grateful Tarek got fired because the boy grated on my nerves. He's now on TWoP where he posts long things in his own thread about the show and his performance.

Does he? I'll have to check that out. While I didn't like his personality, he was kind of cute.

I admit it, I watch!

IMHO, Tarek and Michael were the only male "eye candy" on this year's show. You could make a case for Sean but his bottom lip was a distraction.

Your kidding? What is TWoP?? I have to check it out.

No comments after last night's cliffhanger?

Blood! coming out her nose! coughing up blood! The drama!

I think Lee is totally going to screw this up, but I hope not. I guess I'm rooting for the underdog.

I honestly think both of them are useless weenies, but I have to say after last night, I'm rooting for Sean. Lee seems to have "Tana Syndrome" whereas he thinks the whole event will run itself. And if he thinks that, then he deserves to fall on his ass. And Pepi? Hell, George and Carolyn didn't even remember he was on the show! Lenny's a tempramental train wreck, and Roxanne's the only one on the one on the team with her head screwed on straight.

Sean is not only working hard and taking more details into account, but I liked the way he told Andrea not to even worry about the event, to just go and take care of herself. I like a person who can put someone else first, no matter how huge a task at hand. He could stand to pay a bit more attention and not play footsie with Tammy quite so much, but he's got a far better team in Tarek, Tammy and Andrea (if she comes back).

Loved how when Andrea was shown walking down the hall crying about coughing up blood the announcer voiced over congrats to the $10,000 winner. How tacky was that?

Jesus. It's a nose bleed. You sometimes cough up blood with said nosebleed. I can't stand her. She is so dramatic. I'm surprised she even HAS blood. She looks like it has been all sucked out of her.
Yeah, Tarek is hot, but lacks, I don't know, something.
I like Lee and how he is "Brown Noser Extraordiare". He does it in a very graceful and maniupulative manner. Not too over the top. It's endearing. But he picked a lame team.
But Sean? Looks like he should have a hook in his mouth. And the smugness bugs.

Sandypants you obviously weren't listening she was coughing up pieces of her lung mixed in with her blood.

The women who Lee was reporting to was sure cracking the whip. "Remember you are talking to someone who has put on this fundraiser for 5 years in a row" I loved it. Lee is an Ass.

I like Tarek.

Lee is an Ass.

I gave up this show to watch 24 and seeing Lee in the final? Made my decision worth it. But apparently, he's more well liked that Sean if that bogus phone poll is to be believed? Lee is totally clueless—and I feel sorry for the charity that got saddled with him.

However, I will say, before I stopped watching, I LOVED Lenny and was glad to see him picked last night, even by Lee. Please don't hate me.

Tarek looks distractingly like Orlando Bloom. Or, to be more specific, Orlando if he were more manly and looked less like a boy.

As for Lee, I don't think I've ever seen a Final 2 candidate who was less qualified to be there. (And I'm not including the educated/non educated season because, frankly, that was a scary experience all around and total garbage). But amongst the supposedly qualified candidates, all the Final 2 have had some reason to be there.

Not Lee. He's been carried through all the tasks when he was PM by other people. On more than one, it was as if Tarek was the PM, not Lee. Lee had no ideas and he's skated on other people's coattails, plus his own pragmatism. Plus, if he hadn't skipped 2 projects, who knows what would have happened.

He's not only clueless but he's the furthest thing from a leader. He lets himself be dominated by people who are either more effective (Tarek) or more vocal (Lenny.) While I like Lenny, I question his choices and also his astuteness. On more than one task in the past, he simply had no ideas.

In fact, none of Lee's group has EVER been creative, imaginative or able to take the initiative. They're *all* followers, across the board from Lenny down to Roxanne. Combine that with a leader like Lee, who needs other people to carry him and make all the substantive decisions..... well, you end up with a mess. It's no use having loyal people if everyone is waiting for someone else to come up with an idea or with a direction, but no-one's smart or capable enough to do it.

Carolyn's giggles at the choice of Pepe and her inability to even remember his face, let alone name, cracked me up. I shared her disbelief. But it wasn't close to my disbelief at the stupid online poll thing which put Lee's choice of teams ahead by some huge number. Totally illogical, imo.
