Apprentice Season 3, and even Season 2, and Season 1...
OK, I just have to get this off my chest - what's up with this year's Apprentice? The candidates are horrible!
Season 1: Bill Rancik really stood out as being a great fit for the Trump organization. He had a great breadth of experience, was highly capable, and had a super high EQ (emotional quotient). He was able to inspire people to work for him and was a great candidate. Even Kwame was pretty good, though I felt he could be a little passive.
Season 2: I still think Jen M. would have been a better apprentice than Kelly, but both were pretty good candidates. Even Sandy and Ivana were good, as was Kevin. In the end they had some very competent players. What I liked the most was that they were a very creative bunch.
Season 3: One quits, quits! How the heck did that person get selected? Out of 10,000 or whatever applicants one would think they'd select only people who'd rather die than quit. Perhaps this is my bias that there is no shame in failure but there is shame in quitting. Anyway, this group has about as much creativity as a bowl of fruit. Did you see the commercials they came up with? Horrible! I can't imagine last years' crowd doing even remotely this bad. Maybe I'm judging prematurely, but I don't see the creativity and execution and passion in this group that I saw in the last one.
Oh yeah, they have to focus on the drama but at this point we're not even sure if Craig can speak. And whose the other blonde lady in Magna that we see for one minute but never see again? And what about Tara - does she do nothing at all?
Ah well, I guess that's TV and we'll see more of these people as the season progresses :) Even with my missive on how I don't see this group being as creative as one would think (given that most tasks involve marketing and selling a product), I still love the show and will still watch every week.
And...Survivor starts soon... :)
