The Apprentice 10 - episode 10...

First off, I have to say, this has been my absolute favorite season of The Apprentice so far. While the tasks haven't been as entertaining as they usually are, the contestants have made the show. This was a great bunch of people for the most part. The ratings might not be as impressive as they used to be (based on what I've read at least), but that's definitely not indicative of the quality of the show.

It was kind of saddening to see the full show opening last night. All those awesome contestants and unfortunately not many of the stand-out ones are left. But hopefully some of my favorites will return to help with the final task.

At this point, I think it's Steuart's game, but we'll see in a few weeks.

The highlight of this episode - Stephanie's Director of Photography and his annoyed expressions, which increased as the task went on. I couldn't help but laugh every time he was on screen as his expression became more and more agitated. I felt bad for the guy, but it was funny.

I also feel bad for Liza, as she always seems to be unhappy with what her team comes up with. And it is true that her opinions are almost always disregarded. She had a chance to show off her skills as project manager a few episodes ago in the Broadway task, but her team lost that time.

And it was yet another loss for her team this time. While both commercials were impressive considering the extremely limited time they had to put them together, it was kind of obvious which one would win. The one with a family atmosphere, an AT&T Store, and even an NBC Today Show logo was the easy winner.

The boardrooms are getting more interesting as Donald Jr. and Ivanka are expressing their opinions a lot more often. Maybe they always have been and it just wasn't getting shown. But their questions to the contestants are sometimes the best parts of those segments. I'm sure happy that's being included now.

Mahsa also got a mention this episode when Steuart made fun of Stephanie trying to shut Liza up with "Mahsa hands". That was entertaining and made up for not hearing "we had no choice" this time.

I was very surprised when Donald Trump fired Stephanie - I really didn't see that coming. I thought for sure she'd make it to the final two. And Donald Trump must have been impressed with her as she's now working for his company. Firing her was a strange decision on his part.

Don't forget to listen to Tyana's RealiTyana Talk podcast to hear more from Stephanie later this weekend!
