Wow this show annoys the heck out of me this year. Nobody stands out and nobody is accountable for their own actions. A Bridal shop test to a group that has a bridal shop owner in it? COME ON!! Thats like asking a group of men to design women's fashions!! Oh wait, they did that too!!!!!! Aaargh!!! The only people who stood out, Bradford and Raj, got fired. Lame lame show this year.

I guess. Bradford was a fool and got himself fired w/ his mouth. Raj was doomed to go after several unprofessional encounters between him and women. He was also a plain old dink who had bad ideas and thought his bow-tie was 'charming'. A Republican uniform if I ever saw one

And Donald Trump can really judge a guy based on how he is with women?

Probably not. But Raj is applying for a pretty prestigious position, and his interview is being broadcasted to millions of people. You'd think the guy could be professional for a month and tuck it in for his own good.

I'm still enjoying the show this year but the common complaint I share with other viewers is some of the better contestants were fired early, some for the purpose of mere theater.

And wow, did that guy last night deserve to be fired. For a self-described fighter, he's certainly a quitter.

I still think he'd be better than anyone left. I guess its the ridiculousness of the tasks that is bugging me. Men designing womens fashions, a bridal task to a team that has a bridal shop owner on it, and then whoever is PM automatically gets fired. I mean, as soon as you see which team loses, you may as well turn it off because you know who is gonzo.

But didn't you notice that for the first 5 hours of the task while he was on the phone, everyone else sat around and read magazines? I know he needed to delegate, but the rest of his team could have taken some sort of initiative.

He could have said. . . . . "You know, we need to get a marketing plan together."

Really, your kids could have done better figuring out what to do.

In all honesty, the only real advantage I saw last night was Sandy knew that you could send out thousands of e-mails for $1000 to get a crowd.

The losing team basically found their own "Sandy" when one bridal shop owner agreed to help them out.

The difference was really marketing. One team had a strong idea that only an insider might have known about yet they didn't seem to ask their own insider what they might do.

A real botched job.

I have to admit, I was scratching my head at the inequity of having a bridal organizer on one of the teams and then having a bridal studio based contest. Would be like having KevanGuy as a contestant and having the teams try and organize a game of shinny......

Interesting how Jen got tagged by Donald for flying under the radar.... I did like that pink shirt on her..... ;-)

Good googily-moogily that was a nice shirt!

In spite of what Bertuzzied and Clarkey think, Jen is the hottest lass on that show by a country mile.

According to a survey of old fogies.

I find Maria really hot for some reason. Must be the short hair thing...

[Mr. Ski]

Have to say I thougt Elizabeth was pretty cute... apart from the crying all the time, and the general disasterous performance she delivered... Jenn's looking better than I thought at first as well.

Edit: Spelling

[CaptainCrunch]

I don't know, Elizabeth was Hot, but to me Stacy the midget was my kind of girl. I just have a weakness for really short woman.

That's funny.... long ago before there was a Mrs. Ski I dated a girl for a number of months who was about 4'10" and slim... boy did we look funny (I'm about 6'2" and shaped more like your average linebacker).

[Mike Oxlong]

I think Maria is by far the hottest on that show. Some of those outfits she wears are DY-NO-MITE!! Jen's pink top did show off some of her best features last night though.

[calf]

Jen's shirt was very becoming on her...then again...

Maria looks like her contacts are on WAY too tight. And she has the same haircut as most guys. And that really prissy attitude she gives off, ugh, she ain't good at all.

[BlackArcher101]

You guys got it all wrong, Sandy is the best one.
