The Donald is back — and this time, he's bringing a bunch of quasi-celebrities with him. Donald Trump's The Celebrity Apprentice premieres tonight on NBC, marking the seventh season of the show and the first since Trump said he was quitting back in the spring.
The 14 candidates came by their fame (or, in some cases, "fame") in a host of different ways: Two are Olympic gold medalists, several are actors, and a couple made their names on other reality TV shows — including Omarosa, the brash contestant from the first season of The Apprentice.

Just when we thought we might be free of "The Apprentice" forever, there's this: Sources say that NBC is about to announce at least one, and possibly two, more seasons of the show.
I'm trying to look on the bright side here; it could be worse. Maybe another NBC reality show could have been renewed instead — say, "The Real Wedding Crashers" or "Grease: You're the One That I Want."

"The Apprentice" wraps up its first trip to Los Angeles tonight, with either Stefani, Frank, James or Nicole getting to hear the magical words — "you're hired" — from Trump himself. I've got to ask: Is anyone still watching? It seems like the show, which was once one of television's biggest hits, finally oozed into irrelevance this season, with its worst premiere ever and lackluster ratings ever since.

This time around, he and the wannabe apprentices (apprenti?) are in Los Angeles, and the twist is that the contestants have to earn the right to sleep in Trump's mansion. The team that loses each challenge has to sleep in tents and pee in portapotties.

New cast member Jenny Slate went from virtual unknown to Internet phenomenon on her first-ever episode of Saturday Night Live over the weekend. She dropped a now infamous "F-Bomb" during a biker-chick sketch that had her saying "freaking" about 50 times — you can barely blame her, it's a pretty easy slip, especially for someone new to live TV. Blogs immediately jumped to Slate's defense, but apparently the alarm was unnecessary.
