my only investment in the show/series is this thread. Even if Trump were to be the ball tossed between 2 porpoises, I'd have a hard time sitting though an ep.

Did they mention Penn's charity? I'm interested to see as an atheist libertarian american which charity he chooses, but I don't think it was mentioned.

charities here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_App...U.S._season_12)

gobsmacked penn hasn't mentioned atheism or bob dylan yet

Amazed that Trump got rid of Gotti with her being such a troublemaker. You'd think he'd save her for a few more weeks.

Dayana looking so fine in this latest episode. I'm glad with the result tonight.

LOL anyone who has this DVRd- look at Victoria when she leaves the boardroom, then gets into the cab. Her hair goes from being totally flat to curly in the elevator.

Trump just killed the show for me, he fired the best lady in the entire show. Bad move Trump, You're Fired!

Lisa Lampanelli was on Adam Carolla's podcast a couple of weeks ago and they said that the walks out to the cab are filmed all at once at the beginning.

Smart move by Arsenio when asked who he'd fire, he knows Penn won't hold it against him.

ya dayana is ridiculously beautiful

i couldn't believe the mid-evil thing

a 50 year old "writer" couldn't get the diff between mid-evil and medieval

that was pretty shocking

the 110% was cringeworthy too he started to sound like tyson

the women's team is a mess they better hope lou gets to be project manager soon

Wow Lou was being a huge bitch about being mentioned by Penn. Props for Penn for being so apologetic even though he didn't need to be, he has to be the most impressive celeb ever on this show, right?

Pretty good point by Clay pointing out that Aubrey feels insecure not being the prettiest one on the show (at least in her mind).

Don Jr. had some funny comments esp. the one about the kid who preferred the motorcycle to Dayanna, but he'll realize his mistake later. He seems way cooler than Donald or his brother Eric.

I'd love to see the record of the men vs. women in the history of Apprentice, seems like women can almost never coexist peacefully on a team without men.

She's a "writer" in the sense that she's had a ghostwriter write some books for her. Her entire history is mooching off others and never lifting a finger in her life.

Lou being a bitch is not terribly surprising and might have been unintentional good strategy. People might think twice before blaming him again, especially when thy have nothing on him, like Penn did.

They sure must have cut Michael Andretti out of the editing. The only time I saw him was at Mid-Evil Times when they announce him as "oh yeah, we have Michael Andretti here!"

Pretty disappointed in him and surprised he is staying this quiet.

The women they pick for the show almost always are catty annoying types and this is intentional. I think it's all based on who they select. They could easily make a team of women that worked well together but its boring TV. They are stuck with has-beens, reality tv stars, and other non-celebrities who never have done anything in their life. When Lisa Lampanelli seems to be one of the most accomplished of the group, you know it's gonna be bad.

I would have fired her for her top 3 women in comedy speech.

To be fair, there aren't very many funny women for her to compete against.

+1

I already knew she wasn't funny. I didn't know she was a bitch in real life also.

Penn's got to be about 97% to win this.

I missed the start last night, what was the reasoning Adam Carolla wasn't in the episode?

This is so true. Look at the men and then the women. Almost all the men are well accomplished in their field and built their own success. Women's team this is somewhat the case outside of Gotti, but the fields are modeling and reality TV.

Women have no chance, unless its a fundraiser task and they hit it big. After they lose this coming week for 3rd straight time, the Donald should switch the teams up IMO.

Penn is running away with this right now.

he was hosting a wedding at his house

Still, I think she shouldn't deserved to be fired imo. They lost because of less votes which was Lampanelli and Aubrey's concept. Everyone worked equally hard, Gotti needs to attack her rather than defending herself too much in the boardroom she has every chance to get her sacked as she was the losing PM, very disappointing.

I think Penn handled the "who you'd bring back" question better than anyone else in the history of the show. Very well done.

What was the name of Penn's charity? It was for people with low I.Q.

Look at those smug bastards.

The alternative was to get rid of Lisa and that wasn't going to happen. Lisa's drama is much louder and more passionate. Gotti is passive-aggressive boring. Her method of trouble making is to withdraw and pout. That's exciting. Not to mention as everyone agreed, Lisa is a much more valuable team member to an already struggling team. The reason they lost the task is because the men won the task. It was a task where celebrity was going to matter quite a bit and the men have edge there. It was a task which was also sort of masculine in nature. The women were really going to have to do a great job to make up for the task being more geared towards the men. Shaking boobs at a bunch of kids was just not going to get it done. Frankly, I'm not sure they had too much of a shot.

LOL at the Hulk. I liked Penn's method of just agreeing with everything the irate guy is saying in order to diffuse the situation. I'm surprised it didn't work by itself without other team members having to step in and tell Lou he was out of line. Pretty insecure.

Trump is glad he didn't have to google medieval either.

After Trump forced Dayana to admit she'd fire Gotti, the next shot of the women shows Dayana and Gotti leaning away from each other.

LOL... 2 hours? WTF?

There has never been a more smug, pretentious douchebag in the history of television than James Lipton. "I'm a French Knight - let me say it for you in French." His PASSION speech. Dear god, what a complete tool.

Thank god Victoria is gone. Useless ****.

Diana is incredibly beautiful. Every time they show Aubrey my IQ drops ten points by osmosis.

First guy fired has got to be George. He's not contributing.

Donald's reaction to Lipton's pomposity was pretty good.
