Oh, forgot about the interviews. OK, I'll keep watching! That'll be worth it...

Agree that Craig needs to be b*tch-slapped, for cripes sake, he's driving me nuts! Arrogant, condescending, and one of those guys who's communication overreaches past his intelligence and vocabulary: I also heard made-up words, and I think he's just threatened by Kendra and the other "book-smarts" players. He's just sad. Fortunately, he's going to tank in the interviews. I HOPE...

That table idea was pretty sad, can't really see any of them being Apprentice material to be honest. Is it me or does anyone else find Carolyn hot?

Is this the weakest applicant pool ever or what? Was there anyone as mentally undeveloped as Craig in the final 4 in the previous seasons? Can you see Craig competing against ANY of the 4 in the last season? ALso, notice he makes up words when he talks. I didn't tivo it, but someone should check. I think throughout the episode, he used 3 or 4 words that i know do not exist in the English language.

Dude exactally, what the hell were they thinking with this bunch? From the very start it was VERY VERY clear that most of these people just werent what the show has had in the past.

Trumps tirade about how he squashed Cuban and Branson was a little annoying.

Maybe this will be the first time that there is no winner. I think he should just fire all of them.

I've said the same thing for weeks.

It was hideous, and completely unimaginitive. The desk needed some improvements (as George said, what about just making the baskets under the glass into drawers...an obvious solution), but it showed much more originality and promise.

Especially since it only applies to the television shows, and I think a hour of video of a hampster running around in his wheel could've beaten "The Benefactor" in the ratings.

I guess Mark Cuban could mention that his involvement in professional sports team ownership hasn't resulted in the near single-handed destruction of the League like Trump's foray into professional sports team ownership did.

I've never watched the show before this season, but it does seem to me that the candidates are not all that awe-inspiring.

As much as I like Tana and wanted her to win early on, I think the "I'm going home and sleeping. You can work if you want" stunt with Craig was a REALLY bad move.
If Tana makes it to the final two, I think her "going home to sleep" stunt will come back and bite her....too bad she did that. I like her much more than Kendra who seems to be unable to work with anyone. She always has that pouty attitude. I have a feeling Kendra will win because she did do an excellent job on the car brochure and she did it alone. Alex is a cookie cutter of the past two winners and seems to be becoming very snobish. Hope he doesn't win.

In regards to the book smarts ppl, they took far worse contestants than last year. The colleges are all average like Arizona State, Villanova, etc. There are no top 25 colleges (Ivy League colleges, Stanford, Duke, etc.)
US News ranks Villanova #1 among Masters in the north. I wouldn't call Nova "average."

Do any of these tasks even measure anything having to do with leadership and business? If managing a Burger King or designing a desk accessory or brochure shows who is the strongest leader, I must be missing something.

Let's see the schools:
Verna: Jackson State University
Bren: The University of Memphis (BA & JD)
Danny: Cleveland State Univ & Boston Univ
Todd: University of Miami
Kendra: University of Florida
Alex: Jerusalem University, Seattle Pacific University, & Seattle University School of Law
Stephanie: Arizona State University
Erin: University of Miami & Villanova Law School

Ok, so Villanova is the only decent school but Erin only went to UM for undergrad.

Thi is a far cry from Princeton, UPenn-Wharton, Harvard Business School, etc.

I don't disagree with you. Just giving some credit to Villanova.
