The Apprentice Season 8: Joan Rivers Declared the Winner

TV Add comments

Joan Rivers wins Celebrity ApprenticeWOW. Talk about Donald Trump making terrible decisions this season, his latest one definitely takes the cake. In what was called a battle between good and evil, yet again, just like the finale last season, between a cowboy (Trace Adkins) and the devil (Piers Morgan), this time it was going to be a battle between Hitler (Annie Duke) and whatever you want to call Joan Rivers. And sadly, the more undeserving won and became the 2nd Celebrity Apprentice.

I have been a big fan of this show for a long time, but this season was quite sub-par, with the exception of the 2 episodes mentioned in the previous blog entry. The decisions made in the boardroom were quite bad and without basis sometimes (firing Chloe, keeping Clint) and it’s really quite disappointing. And that last one, when Trump decided to declare Joan Rivers as the winner, was not only a shocker to me, but also quite unfair, especially to Annie Duke.

I think it can be agreed that Annie Duke played the game unbelievably well. She outclassed every single person there was and it wasn’t even a contest. She was right when she said she brought in the most money for charity, which was really the true concept of making it a Celebrity Edition. She also rose up to all the challenges she was faced with especially that last one where she and Brandie totally killed Clint Black and Joan’s team in their own forte. And definitely, she worked the hardest and was the most consistent every single episode. Sure, she was bossy, and irritating at times, but she got the job done, just like Piers did last year. What was the difference? Well, apparently Donald Trump likes Joan Rivers more, and that’s about all there is to it.

Annie Duke

Why doesn’t Joan Rivers deserve to win? First, because she took things too personally and started attacking Annie Duke in so many vile despicable ways it’s hard to even imagine how she got to the end. Second, because she’s a sore loser, just like her daughter who went berserk when she got fired. And lastly, because she was completely outworked and outwitted by a very gritty Annie Duke. So why did she win? Because Donald Trump liked her, and since she was 70+ years old, her effort should earn her the title. I didn’t know there was such a category in winning this contest, but apparently there is. Well, sure she won 3 out of the 5 challenges in the last task. But note that Annie Duke brought in $460k to Rivers’ $150k too, like it’s a SMALL difference. Again, it is SO inconsistent of Donald Trump, as he declared Piers as the winner last year because of what he did throughout the duration of the season, not just on ONE task, irregardless of whether it was a tie last year, which it was also clearly not. They just totally missed it this year. Tsk.

If you ask me, the decision is preposterous and is an insult to how hard Annie Duke worked all season. There is no question who the Celebrity Apprentice for Season 8 is, and it definitely isn’t anyone with Rivers as a last name. You can download the sad ending to this season below, he he. Enjoy to all the Joan/Melissa Rivers fans… booo from all the Annie Duke fans!

    I think the Donald got it wrong. Annie was clearly more talented, motivated, self centered and achievement oriented. Not all of them are good traits but if I was hiring, I would not hire an insecure person that resorts in every episode to personal attacks with no basis in fact.

    They commented that Annie was playing the game and implied that she was insincere, I would argue she was just too much about i i i i i – if you know what I mean. She was clearly the best.

    I’ve been a fan of the Apprentice. But I got really disappointed when DT announced JR as the winner.
    I really dislike DT take the ending too personally.

    Hey Stewart, I guess it’s an ongoing thing these days where popularity wins over who is really deserving. Same thing happened in American Idol too.
