Talk about The A-Team with other B.A. fans.
While The Don hired Piers for a nonexistent job, his charity did walk away with a ton of money, which in the end of it all, was worth all of the no-holds-barred manipulation and fighting.
Hate him or love him, you can’t possibly say this clip of Piers Morgan talking about his charity of choice for Celebrity Apprentice is anything short of endearing.
Sorta makes you want to watch America’s Got Talent, huh?
Talk about the season finale and more over at the Apprentice forum.
If I hadn't stopped caring about the preposterousness that is Prison Break last season then I would definitely throw in the towel now. Apparently after all the hype and the tears and the angst about Sarah's head being cut off and stuffed in a box all Gwyneth Paltrow in Seven style, they've decided to bring her back. Surprise! She's not dead. It wasn't REALLY her head in the box. Are you kidding me with this crap? I'd given up on this show having any resemblance to reality, but this is just unthinkably annoying. What's next, did Abruzzi survive being riddled with bullets? T-Bag discovers that he never really lost his hand, that it was only a phantom injury? Michael wearing long-sleeves in sweltering temperatures in order to cover up the tattoos that are no longer important to the plot? (Oh, wait... they already do that one.) Plus, I can't believe that Sarah Wayne Callies --- who was more than a little bit pissed off when they axed her originally -- agreed to return. I mean, bringing Paige Davis back to help rejuvenate Trading Spaces is pathetic and irritating, but bringing back brooding Michael's love interest from the supposed dead is crossing a soapy line that makes me regret the hours I spent watching this show. They might as well have made the last season a dream sequence with Michael coming out of the shower and crawling into bed with Sarah instead. Oh wait... then they'd have to do makeup work. Forget it.
Discuss Sarah's return here.
Looks like Tyra Banks and America's Next Top Model's photo shoot creative director, Jay Manuel (you know the one with the voluntarily gray hair), are at each other's throats, so much so, that Tyra is thinking about leaving as host of the show. If this means that I won't ever have to listen to her talk about her damn modeling career in Paris, then peace out baby girl, don’t let the door hit you on your way out!
I originally wanted to create a list of potential super models that can replace Tyra as host of ANTM, but come to think of it, after ten seasons and ten has-been winners, does this show really need to continue? There are plenty of imitation shows on the air that can fill in the void: Make Me a Supermodel, America's Most Smartest Model, Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency and A Model Life, just to name a few.
I'm not one to endorse fighting, but Jay -- whatever you are doing to piss Tyra off, keep going at it. Maybe throw in a few remarks about her candid bathing suit pictures and how she isn’t as fierce as she thinks she is. Oh and don’t forget to call her fat… She HATES that.
Have suggestions for a replacement host? Enter the ANTM forum to share.

There was a time in my life where I cared about maintaining my looks and credibility; that is, until I realized being a hot mess with absolutely zero poise was a much better direction, a la Britney Spears. Who knew smelling like B.O. and cheetos would have people like Tina Fey and CBS honchos quivering at their knees wanting to work with you? When I heard Spears was going to make a cameo appearance on How I Met Your Mother, I was absolutely appalled. Yet there I was amongst millions, watching this mess (not even a hot one) attempt to act.
HIMYM got its highest ratings ever with that episode, which pretty much put CBS in a frenzy. The network is now trying to milk Brit-Brit for all the McDonald’s Extra Value Meal coupons that she is worth by giving her a personal sitcom, but not before squeezing her as a guest on a few other CBS shows to see their ratings shoot up. Other television networks are taking notice, too. Tina Fey publicly announced that she would love to work with Britney. Love? Really? 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows, so to read this coming from Fey herself, is pretty much inexcusable. Who else that I respect in television is going to want to work with Britney next? Zach Braff? Larry David? Steve Carell? Ryan Seacrest?
So Britney got to be in the presence of Neil Patrick Harris and Jason Segel, fine, I’ll let that one slide, but knowing that she might potentially get her own television show and grace the 30 Rock soundstage is absolutely ludicrous! It is so ludicrous that I’d rather see Ludacris get his own show than Britney Spears! Plus, what can she possibly offer 30 Rock that it doesn't have already? Slutty receptionist, check. Ditzy security guard, check. Crazy black man, check. Narcissistic network executive, check. Normal head writer, che... well, not if Britney Spears will be on the show.
