hmm I don't know what building they were in but it wasn't the Mattel headquarters, that's for sure. we're near Los Angeles. maybe it's a NY sales office that they decked out.

Crustacean Nation? that is so fvcking stupid. that guy was right, kids need to know how to play with a toy or it will suck.
 
I hate reality TV. I don't watch Apprentice, Survivor, whatever the one with the ppl living in the house is. All of it sucks.

I was laughing my ass off when they got all excited about making a freakin CRUSTACEAN toy. Most kids that age don't know wtf a crustacean is, I barely know what it is.

I never watched a reality show before Apprentice last season, but I do like this one because I learn stuff. You can really pick up a lot of things about how to be successful in business. I'm talking about the traits that help you succeed.
 
Bradford's idea was pretty "bland" but it was the right idea. Cars and Sports sell to little boys. This is something the girls could not get through their heads, "Kids today want a sophisticated toy" and "How about an Easy Bake Oven, but for boys?"

Seriously, it's stupid. I think that Pamela should have been fired because she's a) stupid and b) emotional. You're project manager, you're not going to sell something that kids can't pronounce. Plus, the whole idea of interchangable things with kids 6-8 = not smart. Think about it, kids lose things, sooner or later, all these funky accessories are going to be lost or eaten. I also don't like the way she reacted to the kid who didn't like the product. Instead of understanding that this is a focus-group and kids are explained to express there opinions, when one kid spoke up that he didn't necessarly like the toy, she made jokes about his appearance. Yeah, very professional, insult an 8 year old kid behind a mirror. Those comments were uncalled for, I would have fired her then and there.

And if I were that kid or his parents, to be ridiculed on public television, I'd sue Pamela for emotional damage. I'm sure it must be really nice as a kid to be called fat on national television.

And to think people blame lawyers for the frivolous lawsuits in America . . .

FYI, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress is only a cognizable tort if it is accompanied by physical symptoms.

Hey buddy, imagine if you were at the focus group. If someone behind the mirror called you fat and ugly, then they AIRED THOSE COMMENTS ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, how would you feel?

I'm sorry, but you know you're being filmed, you're supposed to be one of the best and brightest professional trying out for a job under Trump and you pick fun at an innocent kid, this is what you get. It's harrassment, plain and simple.
 
the guys came up with the STUPIDEST toy ever. crustaceans? little boys don't play with crustaceans! i liked brad's idea with the football car thingy, even though the designers shot it down. at least he knew to step away then. apex corp's toy was a LOT better... my gosh that toy by mosaic was so stupid.

so far, not really into any of these people yet, it may take a few eps til i find a favorite like troy last year. the girls if you ask me look like a bunch of ditzes... and yes the female is the lead ditz... some attorney. yeesh. i saw brad and wondered what company he left... and then found out he was an attorney.
 
damn, i wanted to watch, but i forgot. i heard so much about the first season, i wanted to give this one a try. oh well.

DonVito was/is a lawyer... I think he knows what he's talking about.
 
I thought it was pretty good, but I don't know if it will become must see tv. That black chick should change her name to Sybil.
 
Next week's episode loooks like it'll have some quality drama!

The preview shows Donald in the boardroom telling someone to SHUT UP!
