Appreciation for Nick rightly supporting Susan.
And Susan saying that neither Glenn or Jim have started their own businesses.

Ewww but I couldn't stand all that booing and hollering on You're Fired, it takes the show one step closer to Big Brother's Big Mouth. bleurgh!
However it was great to see Susan cheered, whoop whoop.
Although Zoe was only cheered because Glenn was there, so it kind of threw everything off.

Still not sure why Natasha gets booed so much, she hasn't really done anything nasty that I can put my finger on. This episode she was rather stubborn and single-minded in getting her idea used though.

Be interviewed by Margaret?
and address her as Margaret

USP? Urban Dictionary to the rescue again - number 5 anyone?

Perhaps they could amalgamate the two magazines as Codgers' Todgers?

Your suggested name would make it a male only magazine. As women live longer than men it would be a dying market before it's started.

Audience booing Jim in the race...rightly so. They boo Natasha too

Surprise, surprise, they like Susan and and Zoe..
I think they gave Zoe a better response than they would have out of consideration for Glenn.

Tom, Susan and Melody seemed to be the popular ones, which is what the poll on here also found.

I think Jim should have been fired instead of Glenn. He failed totally to negotiate and made Zoe's original concept worse by changing the presentation.

Really? I think they would have a good guess. The producers aren't idiots - they know when they've either got a character like Stu Baggs or someone who is likely to somehow polarise opinion.
But, they can easily manipulate the edit to create such a character so the ratings do not rest on Jim's shoulders. And they have been so obvious with the edit this season. Edna was front and centre for the first two episodes then we barely hear a word from her till the episode that she is fired. If Sir Alan really wanted to fire Jim, there are other characters - Zoe, Natasha, Leon, standing by to take his place.
