T.V Antics

Ahhh, My week doesn't seem complete without a good watch of The apprentice.

This week's episode of the Apprentice wasn't as funny as the last couple of episodes now that Sam and her "bright" ideas are gone but it was still a good watch. I missed the first 15 minutes of the show because I was off fighting malware infections so I missed how they concocted their products. I was actually genuinely glad that Platinum (or is it that other team?) won the task. The concept of buddy is much better than that jug alcomesure thing. Putting buddy on top of the wine to discourage drinking is really nice. It makes sense. Now if they put more facial expression in there like what they did with smilies it could fly off the shelves. But I don't think a non-drinker's opinion counts.

I noticed that the contestants makes an awful lot of small mistakes each week. Considering they're professional with a lot of experience under their belt it shouldn't have happened. Maybe the fact that they're on T.V might have thrown them off a bit or the fact that they have to both work and live together every week might have gotten in to them. Who Knows? Like Ruth for example. She forgot to calculate the VAT rate and it wasn't the first time that happened. But it's understandable. If I was that under that kind of pressure I would've done the same mistake.

I was actually disappointed that Ruth didn't attend the Apprentice: Your Fired after show. I'm sure she had a good reason for not showing up but still. Now, what I really liked was that the host replaced Ruth with a cardboard box cutout. It was hilarious. Maybe that was the inspiration for J.C in our MMP project? I not even sure who came up with that but I really liked it.
