I thought the Chock Full O Nuts video of the housewives fighting and in bed was tasteless, could not believe it won.

A head scratcher for me too...

Leeza is turning out to be my favorite of the remaining contestants. I agree about Donald's children. Ivanka is especially wonderful.

Re: Celebrity Apprentice 1/19 Joan Rivers - **COULD BE SPOILERS**

I vote it was tastless too. I thought for sure they'd say, "Inappropriate". I guess the key was that they wanted it to go viral (I still don't know what that means except I think it means a lot of people will see it, whatever.

I didn't catch all of the show. I only saw a tiny bit of her (Joan). I can't stand Geraldo. When he comes on Fox, I change the channel. He has his brother working for him and sending "Craig" (I think that's his name) out everywhere.

That fish captain (I've never even seen him before) and he barely says two words. If that guy wins, well it will really be a stupid show. He doesn't do anything. He doesn't say anything. He is really flying under the radar (so to speak).

Has Donald even said two words to him? I really think if he does speak up, he'll be gone. Donald Trump likes to have the lively ones at the end of the show.

It's a little like "Dancing with the Stars". In the beginning they always have the old people and the people who can hardly put on foot in front of the other in order to stretch out the show. They are the first ones to go and then it get to the people who can dance.

Similar (in a way) to this show.

Yes it was tasteless but as we know unfortunately ""tasteless"" sells. Even someone on that team mentioned that the executive didn't look pleased after viewing those scenes with Brandy and Kenya. Ian is proving to be almost as condescending and overbearing as Geraldo. Perhaps that's why they don't like each other; they have many of the same personality traits. I was sorry to see Lorenzo leave especially because I thought his final product was superior to the other team's.

I thought that the commercial with Brandi and Kenya was so, so tasteless. As an older viewer( and I wonder what the typical age of Celebrity Apprentice is) , I was so turned off by them winning. I know that it really doesn't matter but I probably will never buy their new K cups or, for that matter, their coffee anymore because everytime I would use them, I'd think of the horrible ad.

I have never seen anyone more in love with himself than Geraldo Rivera.

Geraldo and Ian both get on my nerves, they are both such know it alls, and want everything to be their way and all about them!!!!!However because they both have such strong personalities, they will both probably be on for a while!!!!!

I suppose as far as the request for "viral" went, I could see the winning commercial getting a lot more views online.

Lorenzo's commercial was more like a standard TV commercial that could be shown on TV. Chock Full O Nuts should buy it and use it.......except for the one weak point.

Geraldo!

He was soooooooooooo bad in that commercial. He is no actor and certainly no singer. No dancer either. Lorenzo should have directed and starred in it himself.

Kate was fine in it. I thought the hair drama was just that, drama, and maybe even staged by the producers for the show to show a little tension.

It's not very interesting if everyone gets along perfectly, LOL.

I loved seeing Joan. I did think she seemed very subdued. However, there may have been a lot more footage that they just did not show due to her passing. They may have thought it was in better taste to keep her appearance low key.

Sunala, I agree about Trump's children. They are accomplished individuals who are dedicated to their families. It appears they are loyal to both parents. So glad to hear Trump gives their mom credit for her devotion to their children. My guess is Trump would not be allowed to express discouraging comments about their mother.

I thought maybe Lorenzo would rise to the top, but now I'm thinking Leeza. Oh, I hope Geraldo doesn't win. I won't be able to look at him the same after his appearance on this show. We may be surprised at how well Johnny Damon may do.

Just the thought of Geraldo winning makes me sick to my stomach.

I have a bad feeling that he might win. I sure hope not.
