Comments
This list is as pathetic as the idea itself. I loved the Apprentice when it first came out and have seen every episode, but what do I get for my continued loyalty? This piece of garbage becauswe Mark Burnett was too lazy to make the last Apprentice markedly different from Survivor! What have you done?!?! This is terrible…..I’m so sad….I guess my Thursday will have a little bit more time in it now….
I loved the first episode. I wasn’t even going to watch but had seen every other season so figured I’d look in and see the train wreck. It was actually really interesting and fun. Call me crazy but - I’m all in. Can’t wait for Thursday.
