Things really picked up on the show after tonight.
It's the best Apprentice since season 1.

For one thing, since it's all for charity and not really a serious job audition this time, you don't really mind the inaninty of some of the low brow tasks they're assigned, unlike in previous seasons.

Also, since it's not a job audition, the peculiar personalities and peculiar Trump decisions, the latter often designed to keep the strangest people around rather than the best candidates, are now irrelevant. If anything, Trump has been playing this unusually straight-up instead of trying to create entertainment.

Piers Morgan is turning into something of a perfect villian. He also appears to be a genuine A-hole. That's always great for an audience which keeps tuning in wanting to see him finally get whacked.

Great season. It might have rescued the franchise after the disasterous LA diversion of last year.
