I have never quite gotten 'in' to the show The Celebrity Apprentice until this season. If you're not familiar with the show, it can be considered within the reality 'genre' of television shows. Donald Trump is the owner/boss/firer, and the show consists of a cast of celebrities. On the show these celebrities are split into two teams (men vs. women), and are given 'challenges' to complete. The team who initially loses the challenge is then brought into a meeting type atmosphere and one member is ultimately fired from the team, and leaves the show. The celebrities also can use the status of themselves to help them in some challenges, ecspecially where they have to get regular individuals involved. (Who would not stop on the street if Joan Rivers comes up to them asking for their help)
I think this show is not only entertaining, but rewarding as well. While one team member each week is chosen as the teams 'captain' or 'manager', this can be bad if your team happens to lose the weekly challenge, but this can be extremley rewarding if your team ends up winning. The captain of the team who wins, gets money donated to their charity of choice (and it is usually a very large amount of money).
I think that this is rewarding because the celebrities are not winning the money themselves (not like they need any more money!). But, instead they are winning the money for a particular cause in need, which I feel is wonderful!
So, in the end I hope the winner of this Seasons Celebrity Apprentice will be.. Brande Roderick (Playboy Playmate) or Hershel Walker (I think he's a football player)!
OH..and P.S. I am very dissapointed TOM GREEN went home last week, because he is hilarious!

I don't watch the show religiously, but I do watch episodes here and there. The other day I watched part of the episode where they had to sell wedding dresses and Dennis Rodman got really excited that he would be able to model the dresses. haha. I liked seeing how each team developed their own marketing and advertising techniques to sell their dresses. I also agree with you that its nice to see celebrities giving back by donating money to charities and whatnot. It's just an added bonus that we get to watch them make fools of themselves on national television while doing it...
ReplyDeleteI wanted to watch this season for Dice, but ended up missing it. I feel like there are so many shows where I'm like, "Hey, I wanna watch that!", and then totally miss them, lol.
ReplyDeleteOh, and if Joan Rivers came up and asked me for help, I would stop solely because of Muppets Take Manhattan.
I also like when celebrities do things for causes on shows. This also happens with Celebrity Jeopardy! (the non-SNL version).
