I think comedians in general tend to do poorly in real-life high pressure situations, the mask really falls with a thud. Okay, maybe I'm generalizing or it just seems that way because we know them as comedians, but I'm thinking of Kathy Griffin and Joan Rivers when I've seen them under pressure... very sensitive and insecure folks.

It didn't get good ratings this year but I also hope NBC doesn't drop the ball on it. It's a really fun show.

Last night, Clay made me like Debbie Gibson for the first time this season. Clay is just acting like a douche bag which sucks since his charity is a cool cause. Kudos to his teammates-helpers for describing his many ways of being obnoxious last night. And Aubrey deserved final 2 more than Clay and Arsenio put together.

Donald firing Aubrey for no good reason last night was pure BS. I think she is the BEST celeb apprentice cntestant the show ever had. She is really good with her answers and on top of her game. She should have been there over Arsenio.

They need to retool it. The editing on this show is awful. Im not a fan of the 2 hour episodes as alot is filler and it moves so slowly. It needs to go back to being an hour as most of the time I dont see why it needs to be stretched out for 2. Occasionally he'll do 3 hours and thats a killer. I thought last night was going to be the finale but nope its stretched out till next week, making this task 4 hours. AWFUL!

Really? I got the vibe all season that she already thinks she's a legend. Sort of a legend in her own mind. Debbie was definitely cool for a year or two in the 1980s with the Tiffany war, but come on Debbie - get a grip!

But because Clay made me like her on Sunday, let me bring out this gem...

She's conceited and arrogant and, yes, most of her ideas didn't win them their tasks BUT I still think between her, Arsenio and Clay there was no question that she should have been Final 2. She deserved at the least to be in the Final 2. She was fast thinking, always had a reasonably good idea, great speaker (for tasks not in the boardroom with the "Me, Myself and I" lol)...

Let me take this old gem out for Aubrey:

My favorite moment of the season so far was Lisa's firing, hee. I loved that harda-- comedian Lisa cried about 6 billion times and her target - Miss Universe - almost never did.

I thought it was stupid not to have the Finale this Sunday. I don't mind the 2 hour episodes but stretching out the Finale like this was on the ridiculous side.

    • I have this nagging feeling we think of different ones as the best! Care to fulfill my curiosity? Which are you thinking of? 
    • the famous babyswitch. the best babyswitch imo
    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
