The Apprentice: It's Not A Game, It's Donald Trump's Version Of Job Interview

Reality Show Review (NBC, every Thursday 8/9 pm)



I watch The Apprentice today. When I saw the first episode, I thought
this reality show is so cool. With Donald Trump as the creative
producer and host, the candidates get more excited and motivated.
Well, the show is actually a kind of job interview which held for 16
weeks. With 16 candidates; 8 women and 8 men, the tasks that would be
given are different every week. From the task of being a lemonade
seller, making advertisement, being a manager,... everything. The
candidates would have all the access they need and try their best to
be the last to stay. To be able to become the last man standing, they
must avoid the board room. The board room is a room provided to
'execute' the 3 eliminate candidates and one of those candidates would
definetely be sent home. Those 16 candidates were divided into 2
groups; the males and females. They are placed in Trump Tower in New
York, New York and able to enjoy various compliments on the way
whenever they win a "case/ task." Hmm, so far I see that the female
group is stronger (The Protege Corp) than the male group (Versa Corp).
I dunno how long does the show had been on tv, but I know that in
Friendster their spesific pages are exist. I felt like can't live
without cable tv anymore ^ o ^

O yes, one thing forgotten... the winner of the reality show (or The
Apprentice) will be president at one of Trump's companies and received
a huge salary for a year. Isn't that intriguing? :)
