03/18 - Passions is a top-rated show! HA!

[Tabby Lavalamp]

Yes, when Trump called the recently cancelled Passions a "top-rated show" for NBC, I literally let out a loud, quick "HA!" Granted this show was obviously recorded before the cancellation notice, but Passions has never been top-rated. Heck, it's never been middle-rated. But why let that stand in the way of Trump's hyperbole?

Heidi, Heidi, Heidi. Despite all your team's losses, it wasn't until tonight that we saw a chink in your armour. I understand the desire to be diplomatic and not hurt people you like, but you need to be able to make quick decisions, even if they're painful. I actually got worried that The Donald was going to fire her at one point.

Of course I love Heidi, and she was great in the commercial. With clearer dialogue, it would have been far superior than the other lame one.

True, Heidi couldn't give a straight answer. But Trump really couldn't even call her out on it, anybody else and he would have shut them down immediately (like the second Angela started to say something other than give a name). And I found that pretty interesting.

Was the winning PM even in the boardroom? Didn't really notice.

Kristine should have been in that commercial instead of Muna.

I'm sure you've noticed, but it's now a weekly feature on my blog... How Did The Winning Project Manager Compare to Heidi?
I'll actually give James credit in that he spoke up once without being prompted by Trump, something not all the winning PMs can say. Even though Kristine didn't do that last week, she looked more comfortable sitting next to Trump than James did.
Heidi set the bar, and nobody has come even close to it since.

I noticed that feature, and I'm pretty sure nobody will come close in the future either.

Of course Kristine should have been in it, and it's her own fault for that. Even if Muna did want to act, it wasn't her decision. There didn't seem to be many elements to this task, it was acting and a little behind the scenes...nothing else. In fact, it seemed that Muna was fired for her performance in the video...hardly something that she can be blamed for.

I've got no problems with Muna's firing. She was a pain in the ass for the last two tasks.
Plus it helps that I'm now a Kristine fan (in addition to Heidi). To go on national American television and to say what she did about God and the Bible took guts, and I loved every moment of it. :) There are often people praying and praising, but rarely someone speaking out like that.

Tabby, The Donald probably still thinks The Apprentice is a top-rated show too.

Even with a fantastic recap from Screampillar there are like 5 comments on the main page. I think there are about 150 people left in America watching this show.
