I thought they dropped this.
This show will be over Quckly... by emeraldboy	Jan 8th, 2009 01:26:26 PM

Jill came down with jittle all over her face! OH!
Who? by Rex Carsalot	Jan 8th, 2009 01:27:56 PM
Annie Duke, Natalie Gulbis, Claudia Jordan, Brande Roderick, and Tionne Watkins -- "celebrity" is really a matter of perspective these days.
Pass by KirkLazarus	Jan 8th, 2009 01:29:22 PM
Joan Rivers? Annie Duke? I can't think of two women I'd rather watch less. Clearly, they just want this to be a complete train wreck. Andrew Dice Clay? Dennis Rodman? It would be hilarious if it wasn't just pathetic.
Ugh -- Embarassed by Rex Carsalot	Jan 8th, 2009 01:29:41 PM
I read the bios, and then realized I did actually know who a few of the "who?" people were.
The Rivers and Green... No WAY I can watch this by chromedome	Jan 8th, 2009 01:35:55 PM

WHO THE FUCK ARE THESE PEOPLE by turketron	Jan 8th, 2009 02:06:40 PM
Brande Roderick, Natalie Gulbis, Tionne Watkins, Annie Duke & Claudia Jordan... WHAT IN THE FUCK? I knew a couple in the article but the ones in the title... NO.
I recognize... by blckmgk13	Jan 8th, 2009 02:22:12 PM
...none of the people in the headline for this article. Not that I give a shit though, this show is not worth my time.
Annie Duke will crush this crowd... by Ninja Nerd	Jan 8th, 2009 02:32:12 PM
Annie is WAY smarter than all of the other contestants. This is a woman who has routinely played poker with the best in the world, many times with more money than most of these clowns have seen in the middle of the table, and hasn't flinched. Trump won't intimidate her a bit. She will win....easily.
Hilarious last time by pumaman	Jan 8th, 2009 02:43:09 PM
I had high hopes for season two. Fucking Rodman is on everything these days.
When Jennifer Tilly enter a poker competition.. by emeraldboy	Jan 8th, 2009 02:51:12 PM
Everyone thought she was a walk over. She won 150,000 dollars. just to prove it was no fluke she entered another one and won another large amount of money. She was leno a number of years ago.
In the uk... by emeraldboy	Jan 8th, 2009 02:57:43 PM
We have Celebrity big bro. One of the contestants is Verne Troyer. as well as Coolio and Ulrika johnnson and ex-word presenter Terry Christian and Mutya Beuna ex girlband person. Dead set is great. by the way. Davina mcCall doesnt have much to do beside acting undead. Her death scene was shocking.
Jesse Jane? by Toonol	Jan 8th, 2009 03:19:09 PM
I was excited for a moment. But no, it's Jesse James.
jesse's ex, Janine! by chromedome	Jan 8th, 2009 03:21:52 PM
would watch if she was on

Clint Black? by Hagakure	Jan 8th, 2009 03:32:18 PM
He must be having regrets right now.
Who, who, who, and who the fuck is that? by tylerzero	Jan 8th, 2009 03:32:57 PM

The fat ass one with the sex tape who's dead behind the eyes.

I am celebrity get me out of here. But first they would have to sign up ant and dec has contestants. that is tv I would to see, those two plonkers eating kangaroo testicals. and nothing would give me greature pleasure than to see them doing bush tucker trials.
I'm Pulling for Claudia Jordan by Jonas Grumpy	Jan 8th, 2009 05:54:46 PM
...and I mean that in every possible way.
no time for AMAD, but this crap... by filmfanatic1	Jan 8th, 2009 05:56:28 PM
I can't believe that this crap warrants even a mention, yet AMAD is going because you guys are too swamped? Total shit!
Go to Youtube and search for Dice CNN.... by Indiana-Joe	Jan 8th, 2009 05:57:23 PM
....if you want to see him tell a news show host to go fuck himself.
Andrew Dice Clay was NEVER funny. by Jonas Grumpy	Jan 8th, 2009 05:58:01 PM
Ever. He was to the '90s what Dane Cook is to the '00s. Stand-up comedy for people who have never seen stand-up comedy before.
Herschel Walker's 6th Personality WIll Clean Up by mjgtexas	Jan 8th, 2009 07:31:55 PM
If he could make his personality G BullDog Pimp stay for the entire duration, Mr. Walker is money. "Trading me to the Vikes gots the Cowboys three gold, nigga!"
haha... former playmates by BizarroJerry	Jan 8th, 2009 08:08:13 PM
It really amuses me when former, rather prominent, Playboy playmates move on to other things and never mention it again. Brande Roderick was one of the more poopular playmates of her time. Playmate of the year, I believe. I know this becuase I used to um, "use" her photos. Funny thing is, they left out her time on Baywatch, too. Has a Baywatch credit become as embarrassing as a Playboy one? You'll also notice any press release kinda credits for Kelly Monaco only mention her soap opera and dancing show... Please. You looked that good once, why pretend you never did it?
The Kardashians... by hiperaktiv	Jan 8th, 2009 09:13:26 PM
are the biggest fucking pieces of shit to ever walk the planet...I just wish they fade out of existence...
They cancelled MY OWN WORST ENEMY, and brought this back?! by Mr Incredible	Jan 8th, 2009 10:09:00 PM
Who the hell is watching The Apprentice? It's old and outdated, like Donald Trump. Get bent, NBC.
I don't recognize any of those names by Xandar1977	Jan 8th, 2009 10:54:05 PM
Celebrity: (n) a famous or well-known person. Hrmmm...
It depresses me... by hillvalley	Jan 8th, 2009 10:59:46 PM
... That I was an early fan of The Apprentice and that I actually bought the concept of the "16 week job interview" for the first few seasons. As each progressive season brought a shallower talent pool and more obnoxious product placement, I moved on. Then I found out that none of the winners, supposedly picked for their business savvy, actually got jobs running one of Trump's businesses and were instead used for P.R. as "celebrities". Alas, this included original apprentice, Bill Rancic, who I really believed was running Trump's Chicago property. I watched some of last years Celebrity Edition out of morbid curiosity and it actually wasn't that bad. There was no false pretense that anybody was going to win a "job", and with few exceptions, the has-been celebrities took their tasks seriously and actually worked capably. But the Diceman? Joan and Melissa Rivers (can't wait for The Donald's blustery proclamation that this will be the first mother-daughter team in the history of the show, "It'll be HUUUGE!")? This batch of leftover leftovers is just sad. Sad for Trump/Burnett, who have squandered all of the integrity of their program if this is the best they can come up with for celebrities. Sad for the contestants, people who were on top of the world 20 years ago and this how they have to do to make a buck today. And sad for the viewers, who remember thinking there was a show about successful professionals trying to work at the next level who now realize that The Apprentice has become what it was destined to become: Competitive "Surreal Life". Wow, maybe I overplayed my indignance just skoach. Sorry bout that.
whoopsy! by hillvalley	Jan 8th, 2009 11:06:16 PM
"...people who were on top of the world 20 years ago and this how they have to do to make a buck today." That "how" should be a "is what". And now back to your regularly scheduled Talkback, already in progress...
Seriously, WHO? by Double M	Jan 8th, 2009 11:48:28 PM
And who watches this crap????
Who, who, who, and who???? by tie3456	Jan 8th, 2009 11:50:50 PM
wtf
For those of you who don't know anyone on the list... by nomihs	Jan 8th, 2009 11:52:17 PM
I just have to say: GET THE FUCK OUT OF YOUR HOUSE MORE! I mean maybe I just have even less to do than the rest of you, but there were only 4 people on that list that I didn't recognize. I didn't watch much of the last season, but what I did watch was decent entertainment. Seeing "celebrities", and I think that is term used VERY loosely with a few of these people, get pissed and combative is great. It makes me feel like maybe I should take their shrine down off my mantle, because they are no different than I am.
Hickory Dickory Dock... by RandySavage	Jan 9th, 2009 12:48:39 AM
To my juvenile mind, Dice's early stuff was gold. Last I saw him he was cussing some CNN interviewer. A similar breakdown is the only reason this show could be worth a glance.
Freddy Got Fingered... by jbristow	Jan 9th, 2009 02:13:37 AM
is in my top 10 best of the decade. I'm not kidding. I'm not high. I rank it up there with Soderbergh's Solaris, Punch Drunk Love, Mullholland Drive, The Dark Knight, The Rules of Attraction, Immortel Ad Vitam, Crank, Zodiac and a title to be named later.
wtf Herc by smackfu	Jan 9th, 2009 03:48:36 AM
It has Clint Black, Andrew Dice Clay (!!!!), Tom Green, Jesse James, Joan Rivers and Dennis Rodman in it...and you picked 5 names I've never even heard of to put in the headline? The ones I mentioned are celebreties. Everyone knows who they are. My grandparents would even know who they are. The people YOU mentioned, I'd guess that maybe 10 people in the whole world would know who all 5 of those people are. And I would guess that those 10 are all fat middle aged men who just sit and look at pg-rated pictures of models all day long on their computer, so much so that they actually know their names. Don't get me wrong, everyone loves a hot model, but NO ONE GIVES A SHIT IF THEY'RE GOING TO BE ON A REALITY SHOW. The last thing one desires of models, is to see them fully clad in pants suits, or hear them talk, or watch a group of them fully clad in pantsuits, talking to each other and trying to figure out problems, which I can safely bet will sound similar to that of 20 hens in an aluminum shed being pelted with rocks. Models in these shows are kind of the same thing as sex-comedies. Utterly pointless and self-defeating. If you want to watch people having sex, commit to it, watch some real porn and fap yourself to carpel tunnel. Mixing it with comedy just dilutes both to something that merely teases you on both fronts. Same goes for models in reality shows. If you want to look at hot girls, you'll get much better mileage from the Internet, or the sports illustrated video that came with your football phone, than you will putting them in a room with Donald Trump and his creepy son.
Watch by mastidon	Jan 9th, 2009 05:03:52 AM
The UK version. It is MUCH better....
This sounds less exciting than Wife Swap. by Uncle Stan	Jan 9th, 2009 05:54:09 AM

Herc I see what you did there... by Fico	Jan 9th, 2009 07:52:20 AM
Putting the 5 unknown "celebs" in your title to show how crappy the show is. I disagree however. Dice + Rivers + Rodman + Tom Green = glorious trainwreck of epic proportions
Where are the celebrities? by Cruel_Kingdom	Jan 9th, 2009 08:20:28 AM
Who the fuck is this batch of losers?
HERSCHEL WALKER?! by Shut the Fuck up Donny	Jan 9th, 2009 08:33:37 AM
God damn, as if University of Florida doesn't already have enough to wave in front of UGA right now, now we have to have our greatest player humiliate himself with reality television?!...
"Celebrity" shows by palooka_boy	Jan 9th, 2009 08:33:41 AM
They really use this word liberally don't they? Can't they call it "D-List Apprentice"? Or "Washed-Up or Never-Was Apprentice"?
""celebrity" is really a matter of perspective these days." by Big Jim	Jan 9th, 2009 11:05:37 AM
Case in point: When news hit that Kim Kardashian's sex tape was "leaked", everyone said "who?". When she got her own show on E (if there is only one channel in Hell, it is exactly like E only they never air The Soup), people said "I think that's the girl who isn't Paris Hilton who did that sex tape". And now her sister, who appears on her show, is considered a celebrity. I think instead of calling it "Celebrity Apprentice" they should just be honest and call it "Anything for a Buck and a Little Attention Apprentice". When Jesse James gets fired will Trump then shoot him in the back of the head? nomihs, I think you have it backwards: those who know who most of these people are the ones who need to, as you said, "GET THE FUCK OUT OF YOUR HOUSE MORE!". I think those that have lives and don't spend all day reading tabloids while Tivoing ET so they can also watch Access Hollywood and TMZ are the ones who will not be familiar with everyone on that list.
Job Interview? by TheWacoKid	Jan 9th, 2009 11:21:30 AM
Every season, even from the beginning, is a fantastic interview for a marketing career. Every "test" is marketing some product to people. I enjoy the show, but all the tasks are all the same. How much can you sell of this, or make this product look better. All marketing. Nothing else about running a business. I like how this show has Tom Green, Dennis Rodman, and Dice. Should be interesting.
TheWacoKid, that's why NBC loves this show by Big Jim	Jan 9th, 2009 11:33:31 AM
It's a gold-mine for product placement. Entire tasks, hence entire episodes, are built around specific products. It's a 30 minute commercial, with commercial breaks, and 10 minutes of Trump scowling at people.
This would only be watchable if they tossed by skimn	Jan 9th, 2009 11:49:05 AM
all these so-called celebrities into a giant pit, and have them fight it out to the death till one remains. Call it Last Celebrity Standing. Seriously, I looked at that headline and said out loud (at work, thanks), "Who the FUCK ARE these people??!!"
Love the press release by skimn	Jan 9th, 2009 11:53:16 AM
"(Tom) Green has continued writing, producing and directing numerous film projects." ...in his basement to post on You Tube...
spoiler info by Homer Sexual	Jan 9th, 2009 02:31:31 PM
I read elsewhere that Melissa Rivers is one of the final two. Clint Black will for sure last a long time because the country guy always gets mucho respect, since he represents a huge slice of the audience. Finally, why call her Tionne Watkins? Tionne is not a celebrity, but T-Boz from TLC, is indeed a legit celebrity. This cast is actually a zillion times better than last season. The names are bigger and the cast is crazier in an entertaining way, rather than just being pricks like Piers and Nely or dull as Trace and Lennox. Marilu Henner was the most entertaining person last time, and that's weak!
Who??????? by Citizen Sane	Jan 9th, 2009 08:23:10 PM
Who the hell are half of these people? And I thought the other half have been dead for the past decade! Hardly qualifies as "Celebrity" Apprendice now does it?
"Howie Do It" by BizarroJerry	Jan 10th, 2009 12:23:14 AM
To bring up an even more terrible show, have people seen the ads for this Candid Camera / Practical Jokes / Punk'd reality show starring Howie Mandel. I want to know if anyone actually believes this show isn't completely fake. The commercials just make it painfully obvious that it's all staged! I fear that people don't even care if their "reality" shows are real or not.
TOM GREEN! by Series7	Jan 10th, 2009 12:27:10 AM
Is awesome. Can't wait. The last Celebrity Apprentice was actually pretty good.
One of Herschel Walker's personalities will be traded for 10 dra by Mr Spork	Jan 10th, 2009 04:41:20 AM
But it's just that damn good. The only "celebrity" I've never heard of is Claudia Jordan. It's because I've never watched a minute of Deal or No Deal. Just like I'll never watch The Apprentice.
^traded for 10 draft picks. by Mr Spork	Jan 10th, 2009 04:42:44 AM
Damn you subject line limits!!!!
"Howie Do It" is definately staged by smackfu	Jan 10th, 2009 11:09:34 AM
You'd have to have a Q-Tip lodged in your brain to not realize you're looking at Howie Mandel in a fucking wig. I mean I'm sure there are some people in the world who wouldn't recognize him. The blind. People that have just woken up from comas they slipped into in the late '70s. People with dementia. Or that rare disease that makes you suddenly unable to recognize common shapes and objects. But the problem is, no producer in their right mind would assume that people wouldn't recognize him. If this show were real, 99% of all the stunts, gags and all around kerfuffles would be blown about 2 minutes in when the other person goes 'hey...aren't you Howie Mandel...oh shit...I'm on that new hidden camera show, aren't I?' and would have to be re-staged and re-shot over and over and over again just to get a single episode taped. They'd waste so much money they'd have to charge Superbowl money for the commercials just to break even.
The greatest Howie moment of all time by smackfu	Jan 10th, 2009 11:20:27 AM
occurred during a broadcast of Deal or No Deal. Howie, being a barely functioning, full blown germaphobe, was confronted during the show with a pair of bodybuilder contestant who gave him a pair of gym shorts they made themselves and asked Howie to put them on. He was obviously flustered and panicked, and diffused the situation by promising to put them on during the break. About 30 seconds later, just as the contestant was about to pick his case, Howie, without a word, turned and walked away, went offstage, back to his dressing room, and told the camera, before receding into his room to have what I imagine was a full blown panic attack, 'we do this sometimes to shake up the contestants'.
Yeah theres a list of winners by SomaShine	Jan 10th, 2009 11:33:36 AM

Funniest thing I've ever read by AirWarrior	Jan 10th, 2009 04:39:43 PM
CLAUDIA JORDAN is a model for NBC's "Deal or No Deal" and currently holds the # 1 box, "indicative of her rise up in the business."
currently holds the # 1 box, by Big Jim	Jan 11th, 2009 11:43:41 AM
Isn't that how Ted Danson got his start? I don't think Johnny Carson ever made it lower than case #17.
A list of people who should have died by liljuniorbrown	Jan 11th, 2009 04:51:35 PM
before Paul Newman and Heath Ledger. Some times life isn't fair. I've never seen this show before but having Dice ,Rodman, Green, and Joan Rivers on the same show will have to erupt in some kind of melt down. If not,Dice and Tom Green have no hope left for the future. This is there time to shine.
