The Best Possible Vegetable Porn With A Gay Twist! - 
by B-side
Ultimately, Trump came down harshly on Kristen for not keeping her team together. After all, he noted, Magna had to deal with Michael who's a schmuck. At this point, Michael put his hands up in the air as if to say "Guilty as charged!" Magna burst into laughter and I'm surprised they all didn't laugh "He IS an asshole. But we love each other. (Please don't fire us)." They had nothing to fear though as Kristen eventually got the ax. Back to the Surreal Life for you, Chyna.
It should be noted that after this entire fiasco, Dove premiered its very own commercial which was bookended with glowing words from Donald and Carolyn. The spot itself wasn't anything better than anything the Apprentice people did, just a little glossier. I mean, it had Miss Piggy in it for crying out loud. Afterwards, Trump praised the ad by saying "Now that's a great commercial!" Of course, he was simply referring to his own program.
What did you think of the commercials?

On another site (I'll not mention the name) I referred to Erin as a "70's porn star refugee" last week when she busted out the funny about The Apprentice and kindergarten.
Wow!
I feel like Kreskin.

GREAT recap, I've been waiting all day. I've been thinking that Erin looks like Morticia from The Addams Family.
Was it just me, or was the cheesy overdubbing back last night. Trump said one line in the boardroom about Dove being sold in one billion countries or something, and the audio was a little off, plus all you saw was the back of his head. Did anybody else notice?

yeah, the overdubbing was back - i noticed it definitely at one point, maybe two. it seems like they've tried to tweak the audio a little bit so it's not quite as obvious, but it still stands out. and seriously, what was with that 'are you not a homosexual' bit? it was so jarring and bizarre, yet they edited it in like it was just business as usual.

Morticia? I'd say Erin looks more like Wednesday Addams or Samara Hughes from the Ring. God...that hair!
Oh yeah...and Chris is a major 'tard for that remark. Clearly homosexuals don't use that many hand movements. ;)

Dude I have been waiting for this post all day and I was not let down as I dissolved into silent screams of laughter at my desk.
What a great episode. I love to watch the mightily stupid fall.

Actually, you're right, it's Wednesday, not Morticia. And they did improve the dubbing, it wasn't as amateur hour as last year (so they must have noticed the criticism). But still ... why?

"We were like zombies: so disappointed." Is that a thing with zombies? They get disappointed? "Look at me. Eating brains. Is this what I've resorted to? Mother would be upset."
Can't beat laughing out loud at work. Nice work as usual, B.

"He then accused them of worshiping Say-Tan and yelled "Can you hear me Jesus? I say, can you HEAR me Jesus!!!"
I broke up with my girlfriend yesterday and I've been feeling down, but this recap really lifted my spirits, thanks a lot B.

NO!!! Erin looks like Alberta from the TBS reality show "She's A Lady". I swear to gawd - it's such a resemblance, it's scary!!! People who watched the TBS show, support me on this please!

1. Tana looked like death warmed over when she answered the phone
2. This episode was a slaughter. I loved it!
3. The porno commercial was just BAD. They took the other commercial's good idea and slaughtered it with bad video toaster wipes.
4. Kristen was this season's Maria, but no monster-sized corsage.
5. Did you see the fro? Oh yeah
Wow, looked like the bumper for the "real" dove commercial was professsionally filmed, complete with mood lighting.

I though that the commercal was funny and creative. I liked it.

As I watched this episode of the Apprentice I played my new favorite game - "Guess which moments TVGasm will mock!" I'm delighted to see you noted Tana's intense game of solitaire (too bad she never focuses that intently on the actual challenges) and I would have been very disappointed if you hadn't mentioned Alex's hands stuffed so weirdly in his pockets (methinks he was pondering the cucumber). You never let me down!

Excellent wrap-up. I agree with everything. Regarding the wanna-be commercial actress who was a total biatch: I think the whole thing was her idea to get as much tv time as possible. "Hey,if I cause drama, I'll get much more screen-time than those two boy-actors they hired." Well, unfortunately it worked. But at least it probably effectively ended her very short commercial career at the same time.

I love Trumps phony “I’m too busy to be there with you” bits. Just love em. Also the “I’m wearing a tux cuz im on my way to a fancy dinner and just stopped in real quick to fire someone” bit. And don’t forget the fake “meetings” where he fake berates people with nothing but a stream of Trumpism. “Get it done!” “Make it happen!”
Awesome.
I alos enjoyed how Erins entire screentime this week was her giving a model a handjob. Mark Burnett, I love you.
WHen Kristen kept talking about her boyfriend I jsut kept thinking a how amazing it is that there is a human being out there willing to have sex with Kristen.
I liked Rightwing republican Bren talking about how the gay cucumber dildo porn ad that was all his idea, is really against all his moral beliefs. No really.
And every Friday when he gets rammed in the ass at the local gay bars, he thinks that it is a disgusting act and totally disapproves of it.
I think Donny Douche didn’t give Net Worth enough credit. Whens the next time your going to see a soap commercial use Bukake as a selling point? (Yeah thats right, Bukake gets capitalized in my world)
Ive seen every episode and this was a first time ive ever noticed that there was a black guy.
Thanks for the wrap up B-side. Freaking hilarious.

Why did they care so much about what the bitch actress thought? Like she was the only actress in all of mahattan that could spend an hour jerking off a cucumber?

A man walks off with another man and leaves a woman with a cucumber?
Did that really happen?
And is there anywhere I can find the commericials they did & view them?
Posted by: Genevieve | February 15, 2005 8:55 AM(#16 of 18)
I heard you can view the commercials on yahoo. Haven't checked it out myself tho
Posted by: PartyGirl | February 15, 2005 11:40 AM(#17 of 18)
If you search "apprentice commercials" on yahoo you'll get the link. Well worth the effort.
