The Apprentice

The Apprentice

The Times looks at the beautiful partnership that is reality TV guru Mark Burnett (a former nanny too!) and Donald Trump, what with the reality show, The Apprentice, about aspiring moguls vying for a job with the Donald on deck. The most amusing part was research that compared the Donald with celebrity entrpreneurs: "Mr. Trump was considered less appealing to see in a reality show than Oprah Winfrey or Ted Turner, but more engaging than P. Diddy or Martha Stewart."

How awesome would it be to see Ted Turner in a reality show. There'd be Southern style cussin', some skirt-chasing, and Yosemite Sam (but richer) style antics. And trips to get the lithium. We sort of already watch Oprah's reailty.

I can think of at least one thing on this show that will not be reality based, and it sits right atop Mr. Trump's head.

Ha! That's so true. That's how I knew this was a Donald approved logo - his hair is very lush in this graphic interpretation.
