Well wasn't tonight just delicious!

First off, Nene gets traded and quits, for no apparent reason except.....she no longer had to work with Star? Star wouldn't have a conversation with her? Mr. Trump traded her to the men instead of Star, implying he was backing Star up? Or did she actually just infer that? Either way, bitch is gone. On the one hand, I found myself salivating for her to come back, if only for the sheer drama of it all. I wanted to see she & Star go head to head in the board room AND it resulting in one of the two being fired. I'm sure I'm not alone on that. But alas, it wasn't meant to be- Nene's a quitter, she let Star get the best of her, and she clearly was in it for the notoriety (i.e. for herself) moreso than her charity. I've never watched Real Housewives of Atlanta and she didn't make a fan out of me here. Yes, she serves up drama, but she does it in a manner that is counter-productive to her cause. She frustrates the hell out of me, and I don't equate frustration with entertainment.

Then, in the second half of the episode, Don Jr. shows up with a sexy new haircut just looking hotter than I've ever seen him in my life. My GOD! I'd love to have just ripped that suit right off of him!

But anyway, which brings me to Star and her machinations. First, she's arguing with Meat Loaf about laying out a script, which really, wasn't his responsibility. She easily could have collaberated with he & Marlee to come up with a laid out script- hell, he was clearly explaining what he wanted each scene to accomplish. Then, she gets in front of the camera and is obviously flubbing her lines ad nauseum. She's so transparent it isn't even funny- it was clear she was trying to sabotage the task. If it was to get Marlee fired, I'd consider it brilliant strategy. We'll find out later that it wasn't. But anyhow, bitch is flubbing like no tomorrow when sexyass Don Jr. walks in the door and all of a sudden, she turns into the former co-host of 'The View'(!), rattling it off like it ain't no thing. He leaves, and she's bitching about them getting a shot of the box, which she insists is on the branding disc. Marlee gets the shot anyway and they head to the editing bay, where they execute the finished product.

Lo and behold, they get to the board room and what's the biggest issue? The BRANDING. And Star, who has been on branding in every challenge since the beginning of Celebrity Apprentice time, suddenly doesn't think that every aspect of branding was her responsibility. Oh sweetie, you just hung yourself. And how great was Meat Loaf coming at her like a bat out of hell? (*pun intended) I LOVED how he wasn't having her "I'm above it all so I'm not even going to indulge in arguing with you, especially since I'm lying and know I'm wrong" attitude. FINALLY, someone called her out on all her sh!t at the right time. If only it could have been done more articulately. Either way, it was enough for Donald to decide that Meat Loaf(!) was more deserving of the final four spot than Star and fired her! Watching her not only get fired, but get beat by MEAT LOAF of all people was the richest piece of chocolate heaven I've eaten up in quite a while.

3 hours of my life actually flew by! GREAT EP! And we're getting JOAN next week!! :giddy:

Man, I'm still really surprised that Star got fired. Gotta love the irony because it's like she said, when she took over in the previous tasks she didn't get fired and now that she decided to be laid back she got fired. And the only reason she didn't try to micro manage this task was because she was strategically trying to bury Meatloaf and Marlee as PM if it failed and it backfired. I'm more surprised that Nene quit given all the press she did for the past few months. I thought both would have been a contender till the very end. I get the feeling Trump likes her because he tried to get her to change her mind when they showed the clip of her hailing the cab and he said he never did it for anyone else and he never badmouthed her in the press. Maybe now he would since her quitting has been aired.

I admit... for some reason I find Don Jr. hot as well. I hsould be replused by him... but I just want to screw him for some reason. It was SWEET how in past weeks Star has bleated on and on and on about how she can always save herself with ability to argue a point. Well, honey... your point needs sharpening!

Can't believe NeNe quit!!! :(

LOVED Latoya's walk out of Trump Tower after she was fired. Work it girl!

Can't believe Star got fired! Really expected Meatloaf...

Obviously Marlee or John Rich is winning this thing, with Lil' John coming in 3rd.

Nene Leakes once again acted like Nene..Thank god she's gone, I can't stand her.

Latoya is a Jackson and didn't use her name AT ALL to win that challenge, I knew she was out the door.

I had a feeling Star was going to get fired. She spent a whole season talking about branding in EVERY challenge, and the one time she gets called out on it she tried to flip the switch. Later.

I knew the guys would end up on top as far as players in the finals and I had a feeling John Rich and Lil Jon would make it this far. The guys typically have always worked way better than the girls and have consistently won more challenges.

It was a mostly riveting 3 hours, but yes, SO disappointed that NeNe quit. I understood her thinking, that Donald catered to Star, but in the end she looks like the sore loser who couldn't take the heat especially after telling Star to bring her street game. I was a little bored with the first challenge last night post-NeNe's exit. She's a trainwreck that I *love* to watch! She's always good for some great one-liners ("Go in the bathroom and hide! Go and hide!")

I was FLOORED that Star got fired! SO glad she got fired but at the same time very shocked that she won't be the last one standing. She deserved to be fired but she's been very good at manipulating the situation and placing blame on others, just as NeNe and La Toya said.

La Toya... loved her diva exit! And LOVED when she returned last week, Alexis Carrington style! The entrance! The walk! The stone-cold expression! Straight up soap opera deliciousness!

Meatloaf's crying was just too much. And his ideas were lousy.

My money's on Marlee vs. John Rich in the final episode.

P.S. That gay remark that Trump gave was so full of sh!t. We know he don't like the gays unless they're circus acts entertaining him.

Oh yes... can't WAIT for the return of Joan Rivers next week!!

Yeah, I feel used and I'm kinda pissed. I feel cheated cause Nene quit and I was expecting more. Why the heck did she quit if she didn't have to deal with Star anymore seeing that she switched teams? It makes absolutely no sense. All that trash talk and it amounted to absolutely nothing while Star is the one who actually fought to stay. I'm glad Trump said that Star kicked her ass because it's true. When all was said and done she stuck her tail between her legs and ran.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
    • GH 1976 Pt 8 Heather takes advantage of the situation by asking Jeff to come and look at Tommy. She uses sympathy, compassion, and her own feminine wiles, together with his misery and his pills, to lure him into bed. Later, sober, he apologizes. Learning from Pearson that Monica has seen a divorce lawyer, Jeff confronts her, and she insists it’s a lie. Avoiding his attempts to kiss her, she musses her hair and tears her blouse, then rushes to Rick’s, claiming that she can’t stay with that maniac any longer. They wind up in Rick’s bed, and after making love he confesses he always loved her. Rick replies to her question of whether he wants to marry her by saying he has to talk to Jeff. Monica insists that Jeff not bear any pressure from their problems. As she leaves, Rick gives her a key to his apartment. Jeff, having spent the night drinking, misses his surgical assignment, and Steve, informing him that his personal life can’t interfere with his profession, puts him on suspension. Rick can’t persuade Steve to reverse his decision, but Mark, sensing what’s at the heart of Jeff’s problem, convinces Steve to lift Jeff’s suspension and transfer him to Mark’s service. Rick asks for his key back, telling Monica they can’t do anything as long as she’s under Jeff’s roof. So she has a duplicate made and moves into intern’s quarters, explaining that Jeff’s violence drove her out. She tells Jeff she needs privacy to work things out, and tells Rick Jeff wanted her out. Thinking that this is the preliminary to a divorce, Rick tells her she can come to his place. In New York, Leslie’s abortion is delayed by a mix-up in scheduling, and she calls Terri to commiserate. Rick overhears Terri’s conversation and forces the whole story from her. He flies to New York to stop Leslie, feeling responsible for pointing out how evil Cam was, and arrives to find that she has decided she can’t deny her child the right to live. Monica, meanwhile, expecting that Rick will be home, uses her key to let herself into his apartment and is shocked to find Mark there; knowing that Mark was uncomfortable at the hotel, Rick offered Mark use of the apartment in his absence. Monica is upset to learn that Rick is in New York with Leslie, and Mark doesn’t know why. Mark does advise Monica to play fair with Jeff, but she resents his interference. The next day, while covering for Leslie at the clinic, Monica discovers Leslie’s lab test report and jumps to the conclusion that the baby is Rick’s. When Rick and Leslie return, Monica wastes no time in accusing him. He is dismayed to see that she is still as suspicious and possessive as she was before he went to Africa, and points out that her making a duplicate  key proves she hasn’t changed. Terri encourages Leslie to see Rick in a romantic light and then suggests to Rick that Leslie is interested in him. Rick likes this idea and tells Mark he’s growing ‘unwilling to cope with Monica’s unreasonable demands. But Monica immediately recognizes the threat Leslie represents and decides to attack. She goes to Leslie and tells her flatly that she and Rick are having an affair and he’s her exclusive property. Leslie, who realizes she has been falling in love with Rick, is hurt, and Rick is mystified when he feels Leslie pulling away from him. Monica’s big moment comes when she brings Rick a housewarming gift and seduces him into letting her stay overnight. She is in the bedroom when Leslie stops by to apologize for refusing his dates, and makes a dramatic entrance into the living room draped in Rick’s bathrobe. Leslie turns and runs out. Rick later informs her he’s disappointed in her, because she prejudged Monica and him rather than giving him the benefit of the doubt. Heather tries to arrange another tryst with Jeff, but he replies that he still loves his wife. Heather decides there’s only one way to get Jeff to be pregnant with his child. She manages to overhear Monica putting Jeff down by telling him he no longer turns her on and should look for someone he does. Heather goes to Jeff and tells him that she heard Monica and that she is the one he’s looking for. She manages to get him into bed again, and sweetly assures him this is right. She then sets the stage for future meetings. Steve, meanwhile, offers to help Monica and Jeff work out their problems. Jeff is willing, but Monica turns the idea down. Instead, she presses Terri to convince Jeff to end the marriage. Terri now knows that Monica isn’t a good wife for Jeff and promises to try. But Jeff makes it clear to Monica that he still loves her and won’t let her go. She is bitter and upset, as she has already implied to Rick that she will soon be free. Audrey is upset to find that Florence Andrews has been inquiring about Tommy and herself. She goes to Florence’s home and finds she’s away now. Florence has gone down to Mexico to sign a sworn statement that she purchased a false death certificate for Tom, to protect his son after his wrongful conviction. Tom, learning from her that Steve and Audrey are to be married and Steve is planning to adopt Tommy, tells  Florence not to do anything, as there’s still no assurance that he’ll ever get out. But the judge does accept the statement, and, ironically, on the day that Steve  and Audrey are married, Tom is released from prison.
    • 1976 Pt 12 Final part Laurie agrees with Stuart that Peggy is rushing into marriage to prove that the rape didn’t ruin her life.  She points out that the only way Peg can be sure is to make love with Jack before the wedding. Stuart admits she’s right but points out that he can’t suggest that to Peggy. As the wedding approaches, Peg seems happy that Jack’s become close to the family. However, her happiness is shattered by a nightmare in which her loving bridegroom turns into a leering Ron Becker, forcing her to cancel the wedding. Jack reassures her he’ll wait as long as it takes, and Chris confides that she and Snapper didn’t consummate their marriage on their wedding night because of her own rape experience, but Peggy tells Chris she might never be ready.  Despite her desire to keep Karen as her own daughter, Chris helps a police artist create a sketch of Nancy so it can be printed in the newspaper as part of a search for her. When the attempt proves fruitless, however, Chris asks Greg to file application for permanent custody of the child. Greg points out that adoption is the only way to prevent Ron from returning and claiming the child, and that it will take quite a while. Meanwhile, a nurse in the psychiatric ward sees a resemblance  between the newspaper drawing and her autistic patient, Mrs. Jackson, but since “Fran” doesn’t respond to the name Nancy and no one else sees the similarity, she fears she’s mistaken. Jill is horrified to overhear Kay, when brihging baby Phillip a Christmas gift, telling the child she remembers the night he was conceived. Kay has to then admit to Jill she saw her with Phillip in the bunkhouse that night. Jill is aghast to realize that Kay new the truth all along and put her through such agony in spite of it, denying her baby his father’s name. Lance tells Laurie they’ll marry on Valentine’s Day. He laughs that it’s corny but agrees, secretly wishing it were sooner, as Vanessa has vowed to prevent it. Indeed, Vanessa makes an unprecedented venture out of the house to visit Brad, telling him to rebuff any advance Leslie might make to him, as she’s reaching out to him only from a sense of duty. But Laurie then makes a concerted effort to reach Vanessa. Without being sure why she’s trying so hard, she tries to assure the woman she’s not losing Lance and she, Laurie, will help her find a plastic surgeon somewhere who can help her. Grudgingly, Vanessa seems to be reconsidering her view of Laurie, and Laurie is delighted when Lance offers her a choice between two diamond necklaces, explaining that her preference will be Vanessa’s Christmas gift. Learning from Les about Brad’s blindness, Stuart tells Brad he could have turned Leslie away only out of great love. Knowing that Les is going to see Brad again, Laurie warns him not to bring the baby into their discussion, as Leslie will come back only she’s convinced he loves her, not for the babies sake. Leslie finds Brad disheveled and sloppy, and proceeds to straighten the apartment, stating that she can't respect him if he lets himself go. Realizing that neither Brad nor Les will make the first move, Laurie hurries things along by refusing to help Brad with his grooming, saying he should ask his wife. Then, having learned  that Brad offered Les the use of their piano, Laurie untunes the Brooks' piano forcing Leslie to accept his offer. By refusing to cater to his  blindness, Les manages to get Brad to stop wallowing in pity, and by the time Leslie’s Christmas braille message of her love and her need for him arrives, they are husband and wife again Lance takes Laurie on a business trip on New Year's Eve, and tells her, on board his plane, she won't be  won't be able to call him “Mr. All Talk and No action” after tonight.
