What would be fun is to lock NaDonkey from Survivor Nicaragua in a room with Monsta and tell them that whoever's left standing gets an unspecified prize, then watch them have at it. NaDonkey would be calling Monsta an Al-Qaida terrorist, and Monsta would start prosecuting NaDonkey for impersonating a civilized person. I think Monsta has the reach on her, but NaDonkey is scrappy. Could be very entertaining, especially when NaDonkey starts spitting and pulling hair.
OMG, rep points to you for this one. HILARIOUS!!

They give contenders on reality shows psychological tests for many reasons - one of which is to find an 'entertaining' mix of individuals. There are frequently red herrings thrown in that nobody expects to win, but are there for amusement purposes. People love to laugh at the afflicted, it seems. I think Dave has real problems, but not enough to come back and try to shoot up the place so they added him to the mix.
Top Chef, Pastry version, had another such character. Sad, really. You'd think they would be provided (at the least) some sort of psychological counseling when they are booted off.

I'm glad that Alex found a job. I thought that was awesome!

I like the hour format because there was too much unneeded drama on the two hour Celebrity Apprentice shows. This shows me the task, the group dynamics, and the arguments made in the board room that lead up to the final decision.
You know, I think you're right. I was basing my opinion on a first impression when she just started. I like her, now, except for the overblown boobs. That grey suit that she had on in the beginning of the current episode was just gorgeous. I wish she would stick to that sort of wardrobe rather than some of the dresses, but that's just my own preference.
Yeah, she seems much more relaxed lately. Maybe I'm just a tad jealous, too.

James - actually sucked at Project Manager. When you're whole team doesn't respect you, nor likes you - it's a wake up call.
Business people are usually accustomed to team play. I don't think most lawyers have training in it. Business schools try to develop leadership skills while many other disciplines do not.

First of all the woman's team video was simply a commercial - nothing more. The only one who realized that was sent packing. Oh well.

I too hope David and Mahsa are around long enough to be placed on the same team. Can anyone imagine how that will go?

Yeah, that would be hilarious if David and Mahsa end up on the same team! I think those two might literally strangle each other...lol

This is just a thought, but maybe the Donald does not have enough high paying job opening in his businesses to allow for many consecutive non-celeb Apprentices.

I would also like a followup on each of the Apprentice 'winners' who got jobs at Trump's org. - are they still there, what they did while there, why they quit, what they are doing now, and do they feel it has been a great help in their lives or just a waste.

An empowered bi*ch is still a bi*ch.
I was wondering why she mentioned her job so much.

I speculate that they planned to let her go before she signed up with Trump, OR she may have been turned down for a promotion or pay raise and this was her way of teaching them. With all the publicity perhaps she thought they would not fire her because it would make THEM look bad.
