You know it's nearly the end of the year when The Apprentice swings back around again to sort out your Wednesdays (not Thursdays this time) 'til Christmas. Given I forgot the show started Wednesday, and it's also kinda poo poo, the OP is lazy. Sue me I guess. The number of red ties here is an interesting statement Firstly enjoy the wonder that is Apprentice Bingo. I'd suggest a card per episode this year, because OH BOY do these candidates look ready to stamp. Also if you've been here since the start, the candidates are basically all younger than you now, so enjoy that headache. Here's what we need to deal with: Andrew Brady, 26 For: Seems to realise he's a weirdo creep ? Likely candidate for topless hair-styling if you have that bingo square Against: He's a weirdo creep Red tie Anisa Topan, 36 For: Already has a business in fashion Against: Her self description sounds like every 16yo's first CV I got bored of her video at the half way point Bushra Shaikh, 34 For: Business owner (in fashion again) Good at selling (perhaps) Against: Generic GOOD AT SALES person Charles Burns, 24 For: Looks really punchable Business experience Against: Looks really punchable He sounds as irritating as his face is Danny Grant, 32 For: Business experience Does not look boring Against: A lot of you will find him irritating. Fast. Elizabeth McKenna, 39 For: Business owner, as per usual, on this show about wanting to start a business . . . Against: Oh gee lady, you want to tone down that whole thing Every cliche about SAY WHAT I THINK Mid 90s curtains as attire Elliot Van Emden, 31 For: Seems accomplished Against: Tory boy Harrison Jones, 27 For: Looks normal in like, that one photo right there otherwise ... Against: Red tie Most likely to axe murder the other contestants Actually that's maybe a for Jade English, 25 For: Seems quietly confident Against: Manages a reasonable facsimile of Karen Brady's dead eyes at all times James White, 26 For: Guaranteed to be the best salesman ever Against: Vapid idiot Red tie Jeff Wan, 28 For: A more unique personality for sure 'Hip hop dancer' so expect some fun tasks pratting around Against: Accent changes 3 times in his 53 second video Like wtf dude Joanna Jarjue, 23 For: Some actual personality (??) The only nice person to look at this year Against: Thinks she can sing Michaela Wain, 33 For: Well, she won't bore you Against: Has the look of someone trying to dress poorly in a 'before' role and I think this is her best efforts Seemingly wears those glasses to hide her nose They don't hide her nose They look bad themselves Ross Fretten, 29 For: Likely to make issues happen Against: Someone saying they're seen "as a bit of a creep" because they are "ruthless in pursuing what I want" does not parse well dude, holy poo poo Sajan Shah, 24 For: Another one with good alliteration this year Owns a company Watchable Against: Is a cliche factory, but who isn't Sarah Jayne Clark, 25 For: Seems pretty reasonable Against: Most likely to check "PM ignores subteam leader" box Sarah Lynn, 35 Compares herself to Thatcher, so can't be arsed Siobhan Smith, 34 For: Super active, likely good tasker Business owner Against: Needs to see someone about her eyebrows Elizabeth or Elliot to leave week 1. Oh, and there's You're Fired on BBC2 after the show, which was watched by 5 people last year. Finale will be around Christmas. If you're going to iPlayer this, you need an account now.

I'd love to buy random uncooked burger pattys off the street from hysterical, desperate people, labelled only "beef".

Pissflaps posted:It's easy to compare the two teams however they do it you just count the money. There's a lot of flexibility in some, later, tasks, but I rather think this is intentional in the first week(s) to make an edit that makes sense. It can cut between sub-teams and you know what's going on by location alone and can focus on the nonsense they're saying. Later episodes have the narrator bookend scenes to explain what each team is trying to achieve and how. In the little freedom they had we witnessed people running around bridges trying to sell uncooked 'beef' to complete randoms leaving work, so I don't know what kind of madness you'd see if there wasn't some structure.

Gyro Zeppeli posted:How can you say this like it's somehow a bad thing? Chaos is why we watch this drat show. Chaos is good, but the task segment of the show is ~25mins and if half of that is explaining why some twit has sent 5 people out into london in a star formation we'd have less of the payoff. They're given just enough rope to hang themselves with. The tasks aren't perfect but they'd have to change things up a bit with the format at the same time to give a really open approach.

Taear posted:What was the profit margin anyway? I really don't understand how they decided who won that task. It seemed like it was "Both rooms were poo poo, the women's team spent less making it look like poo poo so they win". Kinda a poor edit on the film on that one. The boys only had a couple of things going for it more than the girls (luxury furniture) but even less cohesion and my goddddd those walls.
