“The New Celebrity Apprentice”

I have a long history with “The Apprentice”. When I was running a job club for folks who were not familiar with business issues, I used to encourage them to watch it.  Of course, the first few  years  were very different from what’s being shown now;  They actually had sort-of-celebrities then.   Most of the time was spent on solving their business problems or issues;  As time went by more and more of the time was spent in the useless Boardroom transactions- no educational value whatever.

This season the “celebrities’ are a joke. And as for Arnold Schwarzenegger, he is a parody of himself.  Sorry, but saying “You’re terminated” instead of  “You’re fired” just isn’t exciting.  I fell asleep.  I won’t be watching it again.   Get a glimpse  while you can.  This show is so bad it won’t be around long.

  1. Maybe you should read Jerry Mander’s 1977 book “Four Arguments For the Elimination of Television” (still in print) for edification and enlightenment.
