I think Lee is a slippery snake and I would'nt trust him at all.
Tareq was'nt given another proper chance to shine. I think the blonde girl will be the winner. I think we could have a surprise winner - a valedictorian from a certain south coast university perhaps.

Hate that I googled the winner.
I think that Lee is a slippery snake too, but I suppose that is part of the 'game', though I still cannot understand how he has been allowed to miss 2 or is it 3 tasks for Jewish holidays. I would have thought that anyone with strong religious values (not that he shows them in all other parts of the series) would have checked the filming sheduale before taking part. |

I know the winner and it doesn't bother me. There's a trade-off: sometimes I enjoy an episode more if I know how it ends because I can pick up on the elements that led to that conclusion. For this series I am using Wikipedia a lot because I can't be bothered to make my own notes or do my own research. The US version doesn't seem worth it. With the UK version I make more of an effort.
I think Lee goes beyond slippery and is actually dishonest. As I recall, one time he told the others Trump had said he was to be PM, which wasn't true (from what we saw). I'm ambivalent about Ally. Her "blood on the walls" speech was a bit scary, and she's good at organising her coven. And she made some poor decisions as team leader. On the other hand, she's probably the strongest candidate left and I do love competent women. |

Can you remind me what Ivanka said that was wrong?

Ivanka is truthful, she doesn't mince her words. However that is business. People are criticised but, at the same time, if they are good that is also highlighted - and they may be the best candidate for the job.
All the Apprentice candidates will have used to that from day one in their careers. |

I do not like Ivanka.
She misses the point, and always ends up agreeing with her Dad in the end anyway. Although, that's not too much different to any of the other advisors I guess, and one of the things I don't like about the US version. The others are just yes-men to Trump and Ivanka is one of the worst at it. However, she's practically a genius compared to Donald Trump Jr!

Every time she's been on she's focussed on the most spurious of issues...

only to suddenly change tack and agree with her father when he's ended up firing the 'right' person.
As you say, they all do that. It's part of the formula; Trump has to be made to look good.I agree that Carolyn is better than Ivanka, but I don't know that any of the others are (including Trump). And Carolyn can get a bee in her bonnet about something relatively unimportant, too. Eg the whole cheerleader exclusivity thing, which didn't even affect the task outcome. |

It seemed to me she makes some good points sometimes. With Brent, for example, she seemed to have the best chance of communicating his faults to him...

Anyone else find Sean really creepy?
Can't stand his lecherous behaviour towards the women (although I have an inkling he's gay so it may just be a way of covering that). He has the typical city-boy look and a terrible haircut. His accent grates on me aswell.....ok, rant over ![]() Hoping Ally wins

The difference between this version and the British one is how poor the tasks are on this show, and the lack of emphasis on them, it's all about the boardroom, think the British version is more balanced and this is why it's better.

Anyone who ever says during a task that they are really confident about winning means that they are bound not to.

Does anyone know how I can watch the latest episodes that were shown on BBC 1 last night. I set my SKY + Box to tape them, but the hailstones up here knocked it out and ended up with a technical fault.

![]() ![]() Changed my mind about Ally after the last episode, don't think any of them are worthy winners. Funny watching them turn on eachother and squirm their way out of situations though, great for entertainment purposes. |

Ok someone has got it wrong - they either want familiar or innovative. Its going to be a very odd task if the answer is to not change much.

Definitely the hair....something about the mouth aswell. And his creepy faux Americanisms. Ok, maybe I'm being too harsh here!
