Default The Apprentice

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone will be watching the new series of The Apprentice tomorrow night and what your thoughts are on the program?

Cheers

Claire

Not me. Not much into scripted soap operas, I'm afraid.

Yeah, it can be pretty scripted. I still like to watch it for the tasks and think how I would respond to them

I love it - some of the tasks are quite interesting but my favourite parts are the looks that Karen and Nick give in the background when the contestants make a complete b**ls up of something.

Haha their faces are priceless! I think it is the utter look of distain that makes it so funny! My partner and I love to watch it for various reasons. We enjoy the tasks and like to give our two cents worth and of course we love seeing some of the arrogant mofos crash and burn back down to earth from their dillusions of grandeur!

Yeah, I always keep a mental note of how often my hubby says 'oh, you t**t at the tv'!

Ironically, my daughter watches a similar programme on CBBC, similar idea but with kids of around 11-14 I think - and they are brilliant!!

Another reason to turn the TV off. Awful programme.

I don't watch it at all. It's not a business programme it's an entertainment show. The scenarios they are put in a manipulated and true to life, a lot of the show is scripted and it's most certainly all edited and if anyone thinks these are the brightest young business people in the UK, then god help our economy in the future.

Oh and i forgot to add, anyone who follows Sugar on twitter will be aware of what a complete loon he has become and how infantile he is.

Terrible show, terrible people, time for a complete revamp and something real.

Although i do think the 'mofos' are arrogant and are deluded as to their ability, their really arrogant and boastful claims will be entirely scripted. The show wants to create characters so the public can love them or hate them. You'll tune in to see if the one you hate gets canned won't you. If he/she doesn't you might tell your mates about how you couldn't believe it, put it on twitter or on web forums and therefore spreading the world about the show.

Priceless advertising isn't it?! Everything is for a purpose and they certainly know what they are doing!
