We knew there would be a high level of intensity in last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice after last week's cliffhanger. The final four are interviewed by Erin Burnett and Jim Cramer and asked about their respective charities, their performance throughout the show, and why the other candidates aren't deserving of the Celebrity Apprentice title.
Even though Erin and Jim both pick Trace and Carol as their favorites, Donald chooses Piers and Trace to go head to head in the final challenge that will be a celebrity auction.

NBC is obviously showing off its business sense by kicking off the network's new reality series earlier than planned. With so many of the regularly scheduled shows cooling on the back burner until the strike is over, reality TV will rule the airwaves in the new year.
Tonight's first episode of The Celebrity Apprentice brings together 14 celebrities who seem to have only their fame in common.

The first season of The Celebrity Apprentice ended last night with its final boardroom firing and I must say, it was probably my favorite episode of all. Maybe they should consider doing all episodes live because everyone seemed much funnier to me last night, especially Trace. It also could be that high stress levels make him loopy, and I can very much relate to that!

Donald Trump described last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice as the "biggest slaughter in the history of The Apprentice." Empresario, under the leadership of project manager Omarosa, raised only $7,000 to Hydra's $164,000 in a challenge where the teams had to pick artists and sell their work. This was truly a personal victory for Piers — as project manager of Hydra he claimed that Empresario's failure proved Omarosa isn't a real celebrity because she had no connections to call and buy her art.

In last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice, Donald Trump showed us he's still the same tough businessman he's always been — except am I the only one who thought he looked abnormally broad, like he was wearing extra shoulder pads? I think the old Apprentice got a surge of new life with its celebrity twist. Maybe it's because my expectations weren't too high for the first episode, but I was thoroughly entertained the entire hour.

So, now that the first season of The Celebrity Apprentice has come to an end, are you thinking what I'm thinking — will Omarosa make it back next season?! I enjoyed my Thursday night dates with The Donald and his competitive celebrities, and enough viewers tuned in to the first season that the show was already signed for a second one. Of course, I'm already wondering which celebs will make it to the boardroom.

In last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice, the final five were challenged to create a Quizno's flatbread sammie and sell as many as possible in two hours. This challenge differed from the others in that it was all about speed and sales because Donald banned them from calling their contacts this time.
Hydra's sammie concept was "The Champ" named after project manager Lennox Lewis, and Empresario's concept was "The Cowboy Club" named after project manager Trace Adkins.

Last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice was more of the same old, same old: Piers was condescending, Omarosa used "son" at the end of her sentences, Stephen Baldwin was bossy, Lennox seemed a little sedated (still love him though), Carol barely spoke, and Trace was the charming hero.
So what was different about last night's QVC challenge? Well, Marilu seemed a little kooky, no?

The only thing that saved me from turning off the TV during last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice was that the challenge took place in Central Park. I love Central Park more than I hated listening to Omarosa and Piers Morgan go at each other's throats, as if they were contestants on Tila Tequila's A Shot at Love. Insults were thrown around for the episode's entirety, like Piers telling Omarosa she's "a disgusting little tramp" and Omarosa constantly berating Piers as a father and telling him, "I ain't goin' nowhere son!"

While last night's episode of The Celebrity Apprentice wasn't nearly as dramatic as last week, I liked the challenge this week and now that the group is smaller things are definitely tense among the candidates. Omarosa brought Nely Galan and Marilu Henner back to the boardroom, though I think Donald wouldn't consider firing Marilu unless she made a big, obvious mistake. The Trumps admitted in the past that she's Empresario's only hope.
