True; however, the ratings are being garnered now when the show airs, and that's where the ad revenue is generated.

True, although I was referring to calls that the contestants should walk away, which is trickier to do now ;)

Star looked as if she'd just been shot when she was fired. I think Trump saw right through her attempt at playing the "sweetie" card. In fact, I need to watch it again, but I thought I heard him call her that or something similar when he let her go. :lol: I liked George's comment as well.

Pierced through the heart! And yes, the "sweetie" card was transparent as sheet glass, particularly whe played by someone who had called Meat "baby" on the same task, and who had laughed along with Trump when he was commenting on the glamour of her ass a week or so ago. It was all she could grasp at as she sat there with her original strategy shot to pieces because the clients weren't impressed with her brand imaging, so she was as vunerable as any of them.

For the first time, I really thought there was a good chance that Meat might get the axe, but he chose his words carefully and stood his ground, and Star got taken down as a result. Great job, Meat! :D

He was ready!! .. and I think started the play outside the boardroom, where his refusal to let her walk away gave her no opportunity to regroup and think up another tactic .. plus he pushed her buttons, so her emotions were running close to the surface when they returned; her icy calm deserted her, and the straw she grabbed at was just that, and seen to be. Meat was superb in the boardroom. The man knows how to design a game play and carry it through faultlessly. :D

I do agree though, that there was cause to fire any of the 3 of them; I think Marlee got off easy due to the conflict between Meat and Star.
|
Yes, she did. Viewed logically she should have been held responsible. Either she agreed with what Meat and/or Star did, in which case it was down to her. Or she didn't but failed to exercise control and change things .. in which case, ditto. But far better that Star was left wthout a strategy and found her ass on the pavement ;)

As for LaToya, she did accept her second firing gracefully. ;)

Yes, I've seen now, and she did. :-)
