Who's going to be watching?

I'm quite excited for this year's intake - and haven't got into watching a weekly TV show for quite a while!

It's always cracking every year. I am so excited as always for the new series.

Actually last years was crap compared to the year before, it just lacked a Stuart Baggs. I will be watching though! dum de dum de dum de dum de dum de dum de dum dummmmm

Me, me, me, me, me! I will be! Well excited, love the Apprentice - for all the wrong reasons, admitedly. But, gotta love the posh-nobs making idiots of themselves. Mwhahahahahahaaa!

It's the one thing I like that I would normally turn my nose up - I don't know why... but generally speaking, if these people really are our up and coming captains of industry, we should be worried. But they're not, of course.

I'm looking forward to it tomorrow. Last year's definitely wasn't the best but Jedi Jim did help improve things a bit. We need a proper arse this year to hate.

I only watch the show to see Nick give his disapproving looks.

I haven't watched the last few series, but my 'rents remain avid fans. Is the prize still to be Alan Sugar's apprentice or has it changed?

It's £250k investment or something.

Which means if there's someone with a really good business idea, and is hopeless at everything else - they'll win.

I remember that guy, he seemed a bit mental. I had no idea he won though.

You people are insane. Its Big Brother with suits on. Utter crap.

That is the fundamental flaw with this show now. I will still watch it but I wont give a damn about the competitive side of it because it is highly likely Sugar will have decided (or at least narrowed it down) who is going to win pretty much before the series even starts.

I'm only 10 minutes in but this is already just as brilliant as always!

Afraid I'm with Yuds on this one.

* The Apprentice.

I'll stick to my endless Netflix watching, thank you very much! Breaking Bad vs The Apprentice...wow, tough choice

I don't find it interesting enough for me to watch for a whole hour.

Yeah, it was. And he was right to get rid of that gob-shite lass, she did my head in.

by **chrysostom** » Thu Mar 22, 2012 9:49 am

I can't believe she talked her way off the show! She wouldn't have been fired if she just SHUT UP.

Both teams were absolutely appalling - and the screeching hareem did my head in. The women they get on there tend to be SO bitchy towards each other!

by **dimtimjim** » Thu Mar 22, 2012 9:57 am

I know, the boys team (although they won) were ruddy terrible. The designs they went with were jus' pure piszle. Couldn't believe it when they won! And by 4 times the ammount, too.

I love the fact that these people have made it all the way to BBC's The Apprentice, a shot at a £250,000 investment and expertise from Shug's himself, yet mention 'margin' to them and you're greated with blank expressions.... These people NEED embarassing on national TV, knock 'em down a peg or two.

Course you are... * head.
