This week I have taken a break from reviewing movies and decided to discuss my new favorite shows. I absolutely love reality tv so I watch all of the dumb shows like the bachelor, the Kardashians, and the Girls Next Door. I have been following the Celebrity Apprentice and it is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. First of all Donald Trump is so funny. He has one of the biggest egos and I love watching him talk about how successful he is at the beginning of each episode before he makes the "celebrities" do their task. This season includes Sharon Osborn, Cindy Lauper, a Victoria's Secret model, Brett Michaels, and the former governor Rod Blagojevich. Sadly Blagojevich was eliminated a couple of weeks ago, but the show is still entertaining. Blagojevich was particularly amusing because he was clearly doing the show to profess his innocence and somehow taint the jury pool before he goes on trial. We got to see scenes of him walking through New York City as people called him a disgrace while he would yell he was innocent. During the tasks he would sit in the corner on his phone with his lawyer about witnesses who are betraying him and if there was any tape of that. Just before I thought he couldn't get funnier, we got to learn that he doesn't know how to type, e-mail, and can barely use the computer. I really don't understand how that is possible when you are a governor but it was funny nonetheless.
The other cast of "celebrities" like Osborn, Michaels, and Lauper are extremely funny to watch. Cindy is clearly crazy and doesn't make sense half the time she is talking. Although she does manage to come up with brilliant slogans or ideas eventually on each task. If you like reality tv, then The Apprentice is right for you as it is filled with ego, drama, and comedy.
I used celebrity in quotes because these characters aren't exactly A list celebs. Luckily I could identify two or three, but the rest I had to figure out who they were.
