The Apprentice

Before this show, I didn't think it was possible to create a Survivor-based reality show that didn't suck. But I guess you can, then.

Never heard of the show? I pity your ignorance. Basically, the big real estate man, Donald Trump, needs a new apprentice to help him. So he gets sixteen volunteers which, as you might guess, is too many apprentices for him. So, he's got to narrow it down. How, you ask? Easy: He splits the sixteen people into two teams.

The teams go to work showing off their entrepreneurial skills, performing various competitions such as a "Celebrity's Night Out" charity fundraiser, or renovating an old apartment to rent it for a higher price. At the end of each competition, the winning team gets treated to a special occassion initiated by Mr. Trump, while the losing team meets in the dreaded board room, while Mr. Trump decides who gets fired.

Sounds boring at first, but it's actually quite competitive. And it also provides lifeskill tips for bosses, from not being spineless to supervising your employees correctly. (For you employees, this may or may not be a good thing.)

...don't tell me I'm the only one who watches this.
