And no matter which charity it goes to, a win is a win for Team Backbone! Most of the women seem to be overly obsessed with making sure they get their credit to make their own self look good and forget that they are supposed to be working as a team.
It will be interesting to see Busey as Project Manager tomorrow tonight and see how it all plays out, with the Meat/Gary showdown. I saw a segment on Extra TV last nite that confirmed that that is supposed to take place this week. Of course i believe Extra TV about as much as I believe what is written in the National Enquirer. Just want Meat to do really well and make it to the final.

Really? Cause it looks like their painting something during the argument, and painting doesn't scream camping to me. Mark looked as if he was the project manager and Jose was absent.

Also, being as its been in every promo for the show, Id think that show down wouldve been featured in the promo for this upcoming episode.

I just noticed you've got your original user name back. I agree, the men seem to be handling it all a lot better, not so much bitching and backstabbing like on the women's side. Like you say they seem to forget they are supposed to be a team. It will be interesting to see how Gary Busey goes as project manager. I wonder who will be for the women, and if she'll get as little support as Lisa got.

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking
Maybe Meat has another confrontation with Gary this week ... which is why Gary tells Meat to settle down

[BostonAngel]

Yes, I have my old user name back!. I get to be me again.
I think Nikki Tayor is the Project Manager this week. I don't know why I have that in my head though. And Star Jones keeps bossing her around. Maybe I dreamed it all? LOL I am going on Celebrity Apprentice info overload. We will find some of it out tomorrow night. And then have a whole new set of questions & speculation

[Wario]

The Harold didnt give away anything, but apperently:

"While the two hours lacks some of the fireworks from the first two episodes, it lays the explosives for the rest of the season. It may just contain the most surprising boardroom firing, though not for a reason you might guess."

http://www.bostonherald.com/entertai...tabloid_sheen/

[CarylB]

"fireworks", "explosives" .. media hype

My take was, and remains, that for Meat to raise his voice to anyone he'll have had good reason. Last week when he was trying to get Busey to focus on what needed to be done and done right away, he used great patience and quiet skill, even in response to a very confrontational "Or what?" from Busey. What we've seen so far shows Meat working hard and well as an effective team member, and as a team leader managing his project through to success, and being a leader his team appreciated. To me that's more noteworthy .. and I'm looking forward to seeing more of that in tonight's episode In much the same way as I concentrate on all that goes well in a concert, rather than watch like a hawk for a missed cue or note He's doing really well on CA so far and I expect to see more of the same, and look forward to that.

Very intriguing .. thanks for posting the link
If the men lose tonight, it's got to be Jose who gets fired ... but if the women lose, I wonder if it would be either NeNe or Dianne who gets fired

Caryl

Very true .. I'm looking forward to that too. But it's still fun to speculate

[realViking]

Can`t watch the show here in Norway yet, but hopefully it will be out on You Tube tomorrow. Better late than never....
I`m so exited to hear about this tonight here on the net. Hope you all will write and tell about the show tonight. I`m waiting

[CarylB]

Yes, but to speculate about what though? A brief minute in one yet unseen episode when everyone was tired and Meat lost control for a moment or two? And something (in fact the one thing in the series) which he was really upset about afterwards? There are 13 episodes, and so far we've seen two in which everything Meat has done has been exemplary. I can understand the programme producers wanting to home in on any outburst .. it's clearly what they hope will happen; and it's the kind of thing the media love to hype. I'm just surprised that here we would want to put so much emphasis on it, and talk about Meat "confronting" as if it's something he does a lot of. I can't help but feel if there were other occasions they would have gleefully released footage of it. Last week Eric Trump claimed (rather inaccurately imo) that Meat and Gary were already "at each others' throats" .. something I didn't see, and if it were so I certainly wouldn't expect them to edit it out.

What I did see, and what impressed me was how well he managed an issue last week with Gary Busey, gently, skillfully and effectively. Meat's all about drive and focus on whatever he's doing. Busey seems to me to be someone whose focus keeps darting off at tangents, which must be frustrating for anyone who's very task-focused, but Meat managed the interaction extremely well. I'm not looking for him to trip up, and on his showing to date expect to see him manage himself through the series really well.

[Vickip]

I'm supporting Meat and rooting for him to do well in the rest of the show ..... just as I was extremely happy for both him and the Painted Turtle last week

I was actually referring to the link that Warioloaf posted. Part of the fun, for me anyway, is speculating on who's going to get fired when, (will it be Jose tonight or maybe one of the women ) and watching how all of the contestants, including Meat, interact with each other. I admit I started watching it only because I knew Meat was a contestant .. but now I'm hooked on the show and have been having fun and enjoying it.

Caryl,

I have a conspiracy theory. We know that they had caught the "confrontation" between Meat/Gary but what if they had that footage then later inserted a convenient Eric Trump "interview" during episode 2 stating that they were at each other's throats already....possibly as a lead in to "THE" episode whenever it airs (as we know it'll be soon)? So far in the two episodes they have led us to an escalation. Maybe that's what makes good tv to them.

Of course, I don't see the "at each other's throats" comment as truthful, I just saw an exchange of problem solving...which doesn't mean they were at each other's throats. BUT the public has seen the promo's blasted all over NBC knowing Meat was angry. Like you said, they probably just fed off of that exchange and trying to highlight ANY moment between Meat and Gary to justify the drama.

What I like is that no one has really commented about the "at each other's throat thing" be it at Facebook or Twitter last week. They were only genuinely touched by an emotion filled Meat last week. To me that's a positive perception of how Meat is winning over people. :) Once this confrontation episode has passed (whenever that will be) then, we can see more of Meat's competitive drive and see where he takes us.

Yeah, conspiracy theory, I think there is much more behind the camera lens. I felt it during last week because of the whole address thing. I felt we were missing some details that lead you to believe Meat screwed up the drop off address. I don't think Meat was at fault, but the edits led you to believe that. But no boardroom mention of it and no harm, no foul. Ah the magic of TV.

Final thought, I think Gary Busey is difficult to manage but not an unmanageable person. All it takes is a different approach to him and Meat did that to get the job successfully completed. He was successful in managing Busey and successful in task.

I'm going on a fun ride with Celebrity Apprentice, trying not to take anything to seriously, because at the very least we know Meat was happy with how he did in the show.

I wouldn't say any of the three of them. only because it wouldn't be surprising if any of those three got fired.

My Money is on Marlee or Hope

Yep. I started watching it last year just so I could see Blago get fired , which, of course didn't take very long. But by then, I'd gotten hooked on it. I would have watched it this season regardless, so Meat being on is a plus.

Good point I've seen pictures of Marlee (with Meat) later on in the competition, so she won't be fired Hope is an excellent possibility though ...

I didn't watch it last year, but after all he went through, I was really glad to hear that Bret won. I've definitely gotten hooked on the show now, and I'll keep watching

since you said that, did a little searching and found this. the day the pictures of meat and matlin were taken, a whole host of other pics were as well:

Sort of gives away who the top six are. So be forewarned when you click the gallery.

But this is a real pleasant surprise:
Dave Luther is on location for an episode!!!

[LisaT]

Couldn't resist it, had to have a little look! Great to know that Meat is still there in the final 6. Not so great to see that Star is still there though!

[BostonAngel]

I have seen that pic of Meat with Dave & Bennett b4. Great pic - love seeing Dave in there!
Yes, I am about to do some speculating here. That pic was taken very close to November 11, 2010. The task had something to do with a comedy show. we know that the pizza parlor task took place on or about October 10th. During the past 3 seasons of Celebrity Apprentice filming has usually taken place over about 30 days. Like i said, I am speculating. However things are looking very good for Meat based on that.

Oh I have no doubt about that. In fact I said when reviewing last week's episode that when Eric Trump described Meat and Busey to camera as being "at each others' throats" it showed very clearly that this is what they want to see happen, and was probably added to the final edit because of the later blip they knew was coming; a case of hindsight being used to vamp up the programme ..

I think there is much more behind the camera lens. I felt it during last week because of the whole address thing.

But no boardroom mention of it and no harm, no foul. Ah the magic of TV.

It's always the problem when you see just small edits of an entire process. I was left with the impression that the real problem was that the women they were to meet were late rather than being sent to a wrong address . but we'll not know unless Meat tells us

Final thought, I think Gary Busey is difficult to manage but not an unmanageable person.

I'd find that constant distraction in in his focus more than enough to test my patience Meat managed it well.

Right you are Cathy In fact I think Meat is the master of ceremonies (possibly even the project manager) for his team's comedy show

[Wario]

The April 3rd Episode (The episode after this upcoming Commercial making one) has been confirmed:
http://tv.msn.com/tv/episode/the-cel...t-of-the-deal/

"The celebrities must create their own works of art and sell them to raise money for charity; one team had a violent confrontation."

Now we know when the Meat/Busey fight is.
