Martha Stewart to Host new 'Apprentice'

This just makes me want to puke ... a network is going to hold this conniving FELON up as an example that people should want to 'be like'? Disgusting.

The final words will probably be a little more decorous than "you're fired," but Martha Stewart will soon join Donald Trump in crowning a new generation of young moguls on her own version of "The Apprentice," NBC officials announced today.

The show, which will begin production sometime after Ms. Stewart is released from prison in West Virginia in March and while she remains under house arrest, will feature Ms. Stewart as a less brusque but equally imperious business legend in search of an assistant to help run part of her company, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.

Mark Burnett, the creator of "The Apprentice" and the producer of a new morning show for Ms. Stewart, said he had discussed the idea extensively with her before she went to prison in October, and both he and Mr. Trump, his partner in the "Apprentice" franchise, considered her a perfect counterpart to expand the show.

She's getting her own version of the show, not the actual Apprentice. But yeah, that's pretty disgusting.

I'm so sick of 'Reality' TV. This is just part of Martha's image restyling once she gets out.

I know I'll take shit for this, but I watch The Apprentice, and in most cases enjoy it. I find the tasks interesting, and when the show's good it's good, and when it's bad it's at least fun to hate Trump.

Forgive me, for I have sinned.

Dude, without Martha Stewart I wouldn't have eaten today, so STFU.

Well, I would have eaten, but it wouldn't have been very good.

Hey, I'm perfectly happy if she does a food show from her home detention, no problem .... but an apprenticeship??? That is just too fucked up.

If we're going to have a reality tv show with Martha, let's see her hanging out with her fellow inmates and find out who's 'apprenticing' her.

Are you seriously saying that your ability to procure palatable food somehow requires Martha Stewart?

Meh, who cares?
I still say reality shows are shit and I won't watch them until they start doing The Running Man or live Gladiator Combat, to the death of course.
