Ok guys, this will be the official thread for this season's CA. You can feel free to post your thoughts after every weekly episode (Every Sunday night on NBC, 9-11pm EST).

I find this show quite fascinating for so many reasons (drama included) and think that tuning in is also a great way to learn professional business tips, tools, etc. "The Donald" might be an ass but no one can deny that the man knows how to do business and most (if not all) candidates definitely walk away having gained better understanding of how business in general, should be conducted.

The first episode aired this past Sunday, March 6th, and I predict this season by far will be the most interesting/explosive due to the heterogeneous "band of characters" that have been cast and the relationship strains/compatibilites due to their astrological influences (I'm already seeing the tension building between the Aries and the Cancers!).

Ok, CA 2011 season's cast members are as follows:

Hey there!

Don't forget "underdog"...GRRR...seriously, if it wasn't for ratings and the 'drama factor', I'm sure Donald would have fired Richard but sadly, firing the tyrant who bullies little people on reality TV is not the popular way to go. *smh*

Richard is definitely out of his league and WILL be fired eventually but I also realize that Donald despises weakness and it is only fair to say that Richard had the stronger personality of the two (out of him and David that is), and if you look at Donald's track record in the boardroom, the 'weak ones' always get the ax first even if they didn't do anything to warrant being fired in the first place.

Trump is a meanie but he's def. got a good 'sense' of people. Never in a million years would he hire someone with David's personality to work for him. At least not for an executive position that called for 'tude and spirit(!). He's a sweet guy and much more of a man than that filthy Richard would ever be, but it was clear that he wasn't making the cut.

I'm going to invite some others to come by and share their thoughts weekly (or whenever), in the thread, because I've got a good ole feeling about this season. LOL.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Nene is a mess! Those folks in the background were laughing their asses off! Star is a strong spirit so methinks she needs to watch her back. I smell jealousy...what are your thoughts PurrHiss?

lol @ that clip Purr. Nene is just too entertaining but I can't stand her when she's really going nuts. Also, if I had to let Dionne Warwick run the cash I would've had an ulcer.

I was too busy laughing to analyze at first, haha. Although I must say that I've heard several celebrities say that Star Jones is an awful person. It seems like she pisses people off a LOT, and celebs seem to ignore their publicists or managers to point out that they think she's horrible. I'm definitely not jealous of her now, so I can't imagine being jealous of her if I were a celebrity. But what do I know? *shrugs*


Oh I've heard the same. That her uppity attitude can be really off-putting. That's basically what Nene was saying in the clip but I still think that Nene is a bit jealous. Just my take.

For some reason, I'm thinking that Meatloaf and Marlee Matlin will go far in the competition.


You might just be right...about Marlee...LOL...but Meatloaf?...hmmm...maybe I'm underestimating him right now. I also think John Rich (country singer Cappy) is a strong contender.

As a sidenote: Jose Canseco is a true Cancer. He really has that 'sweet' vibe going on and you can tell that he likes to protect others whom he feels are being treated unfairly.

And I have to say that I understand Star's approach, and can also understand why others don't like it. I have an Aries (paternal) grandmother and an Aries (maternal) grandfather who are very much like her in terms of communication. When I was younger, I took offense to their bluntness. Now, I understand it, and actually appreciate it tremendously. I like the fact that they're very "no bullbutter" when you talk to them. That's such a rare quality to find in a person, and it's nice to know that what you see is what you get with them. This is actually probably the quality I value the most in a person these days. It's so tiring to deal with all the phonies on a regular basis.


I know but I def. see how compared to a Cancer the Aries bluntness can be irritating. Like your grandma and grandpa, I had an Aries co-worker who was just the same. Straightforward and to the point but she wasn't mean or crude, it was all really innocent, actually.

You could definitely be right about Nene. It'll be interesting to see what triggers their big fight!

Haha, I don't know why, but I just have this gut feeling that Meatloaf will do well. I could be totally wrong, though. Marlee seems like a very intelligent woman who can work well with others.

I was thinking the same thing about Jose while I was watching (that he seems like a pretty nice guy), but was disappointed to read that he has a history of domestic violence.


Now who am I to argue against the intuition of a Cancer? treetrunk yeah Meatloaf is gonna do well.

I can't wait to see what transpires between Nene and Star. I know star can be a pain in the tuckus but Nene seems like a hater.

Jose Canseco is a sweet guy but the DV tidbit doesn't surprise me in the least. Maybe it was the steroids???

PH you're adorable! I love talking to you!

Haha, I'm glad you enjoyed the clip! I was cringing when Dionne Warwick was struggling with the cash register. Icon or not, if you can't run the cash register quickly and efficiently, you need to do something else! The goal was to make the most money and sell the pizza quickly. Even Star didn't want to stand up to her. She should've gone outside to take pictures with people and attract more customers instead of being so stubborn. I would've put Hope in charge of the cashier.


LOL. Dionne played herself. Why in the hell would Star make a call like that? I was so annoyed. She was moving slower than a snail and then had the audacity to get pissy with Star when she told her to try and work a little faster to get the customers out....I was thinking "LIKE WTF? Can somebody please get this geriatric off the cash register STAT!"
