Some People Got To Have It!! NBC & Trump Planning A CELEBRITY APPRENTICE!!
I am – Hercules!!
At NBC’s Television Critics Association event on Monday, new network co-chair Ben Silverman announced that Donald Trump would be back on the network with 13 weeks of “Celebrity Apprentice,” which will be played for charity.
From a report by TV Week’s James Hibbard:
As for which celebrities will participate, Silverman said one of the first calls he made was to the staff of “The Office,” which he produces. The idea of actors who play office workers on TV competing with business tasks in real life had its appeal.

...makes dolls that do not look anything like the real people.
-
pretty please?
-
I guess enough $$$ was given to help him get over it.
Let's get Isiah Thomas in there. -
Stanley for Apprentice?
-
Really, is this "cool news" worthy?
-
all the talk of how bad the ratings had been this year and how they were given the lovely sunday night slot, i thought this meant it wasnt coming back....life is mean
-
The circle will be complete, when she arrived she was but a turd, now she is the Asster. Seriously though, the cast of "the Office"?! Unless NBC literally holds their feet over the fire you may see Oscar. But this will probably just be the regular throngs of lame ass Reality stars like Brady Bunch Guy, his Whorey wife, that drunk douche bag from (insert show here), and obnoxious Bostonian alpha male from (insert show here).
-
Bring back some of the great contestants from the FIRST SEASON that was TV magic.
Bring back Nick, bring back Amy, bring back crazy Sam...
Nobody wants to watch Apprentice with "stars" that will end up being Danny Bonaduce and Bruce Jenner.
-
"You're fired!"
-
Her 'replacing of stallone' didn't bode very well.
-
"You're fired, Isiah!" "You're a faggot, Trump!"
-
I'd watch that
-
The actors from the office compete in Apprentice as their characters in the show. I mean how great would it be to see Dwight go at it in this show.
-
Martha Stewart and Rosie O'Donnell should be contestants.
-
I remember that first season, trump was going around on all the talk shows saying he didn't want to do it unless sit was a top rated show.
The show was raw and exciting that first year, downhill ever since.I didn't even bother last season.
The only appeal of the show is the boardroom, where people have their futures on the line. How are you going to capture that with celebrities?
Stupid idea. Let's hope when this new season tanks, NBC cancels and keeps it canceled. -
i thought season 1 Apprentice was great... but yea after 1 it was over imo... how many Apprentices can he have? its just milking it and boring... i dont wanna see these fools running a rickshaw in Manhattan...
-
Babawawa (the ass kisser)
Rosie (the ball breaker)
Dina Lohan (stage mother/enabler)
K-Fed (has been)
Larry King (geriatric turd)
MArk Cuban (trump hater)
-
NEVER BREAK CHARACTER. Imagine Trump versus Michael Scott. TRUMP vs. Dwight Schrute. Awesomeness.
-
...did this a while back. It was shit. The normal non-celeb version is also shit and yet apparently extremely popular. I weep for society.
-
They aren't going to get any of the "major players" from The Office and getting the guy who plays Creed would be cool.
-
Hayden Christensen, Steven Spelbergo, Barry Bonds, The Hulk, Jeb Bush, the monster from "Cloverfield", a pair drunk midgets, Steve Bartman, Mr. Monopoly, Leonard Shelby, and Jesus. Now THAT is a fucking Celebrtiy Apprentice cast! I defy you to think of a better one!
-
That's right. All I could manage was a sigh.
-
...criminals. Corporate white collar criminals vs art thieves and drug smugglers.
-
Haven't seen anything in here.....
-
To be on this. Silverman said Trump asked him to extend an invite to her, which she declined.
I just think NBC has lost their damn minds with this move. Further proof is they have a deal with Norman Lear to have an hour long "dramedy" next year. How long has that guy been outta the loop?Craziness.
And they're going to have Isiah Washington in a 5 story arc for Bionic Woman. Maybe he'll call her a fag and she tears his arm off and beats him with it? -
They are like a peacock running around with its head cut off. This idea reeks of desperation. They see shows like Dancing with the D-List Stars pulling in big numbers and decide all they need to boost the ratings of the craptacular Apprentice is plug in a few celeb-wannabees and has-beens.Using cast members of The Office makes sense seeing as how the new top guy at NBC was a producer for The Office. Most of the cast owe their new-found careers to him. The past few years of The Apprentice have been little more than hour-long commercials for the product the teams are competing to best market. Now what? An hour-long commercial for a sponsor's product and for shows on NBC. This show has long been a joke, but now it seems it has become a disgrace. NBC, save whatever dignity you may still have and end your relationship with this show and that arrogant, pompous, buffoon of a man, Trump.
-
I think tonight at 8:00
-
...they mean the same caliber as those on VH1's surreal life or whatever the hell it is: Real World has-beens, former WWE showgirls, and that guy who was in that show that one time. Oh, and Vanilla Ice. Who will tell the Donald to "drop that zero and get with the hero!"
