Believe it or not The Apprentice is still on the air, it's just tucked away on Sunday nights so people kind of forget to watch it. Despite that, Donald Trump is still planning a live finale show where the last two contestants (would they be called apprentici?) will duke it our for The Donald's attention.
Utilizing the region where this season's Apprentice was shot . . . Los Angeles . . . the live season finale will be held at the famous Hollywood Bowl, one of the largest natural amphitheaters in the world and home to the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The theater, which seats over 17,000 spectators, is a fitting place for Trump, who is not known for being too conservative when it comes to showing off. The finale will air at 10 p.m. on April 22nd.
I've been a casual viewer of The Apprentice this season and am just not feeling the love like I did last season. Maybe it's because I'm not reviewing it this time around, or maybe it's due to the feelings I have about this whole 'win, you live in the mansion; lose, you live in tents' scenario. Sure, I guess it helps motivate the losing team to win and get back in the house, but it just doesn't feel right coming from a businessman like Trump. I'm guessing that next season losers will be living in the back of a van, down by the river.

Bleh... I had no motivation to watch Apprentice this season. No real reason.
I liked all the other seasons, tho. Just kinda wasn't into it this year.

The mansion vs. tents thing is working out for "The Apprentice" about as well as the luxury camp vs. absolutely nothing camp thing is working for "Survivor".

Why hasn't this show been cancelled? I don't know a single person who has watched it since the first season.

For the first time I got to watch the show this season. At first I was shocked by the show's compunction to so accurately depict corporate America. For a fact, the kisser-ups and true idiots manage to blame someone else for the groups failure. The three guys who've been tossed, each time, stood up for a belief. It's so sad that the Trump feeds into the madness. It makes me want to hide my business management degree or better, ask for a refund. Not once has a human being with individual talents been singled out with praise. They certainly aren't protected. If the show wants to really impress, they should first allow each participant to prove they are/can be an individual. At least.
