For me it´s at least 80 % about the tasks and how you perform in them. 20 % of the personality and if i like/dislike someone.

This applies to at least Apprentice and X Factor at this point. On BB it might be a different story.

But the bad ones going is the whole point of the show (which is why I'm amazed and frankly almost religious about Selina still being in) so I don't know why that would have any effect on the quality of the series If people get fired unjustly then sure, but I wouldn't say anyone has been so far... maybe Ruth and that's it...

Because a lot of my enjoyment from almost any reality TV series is based around those I'm supporting surviving. If all of my favourites drop like flies, my interest lessens. I don't think that's really that strange.

Like with BBUS, I couldn't give a toss how good / bad someone is at gameplay, all I care about is how likeable I find them.

It's all down to the individual, we all derive enjoyment from particular shows for different reasons.

Yeah, I'm the same but it has no effect on the quality of the series just because people you liked have been fired

(also Sam was nothing without his Elle let's be fair)

But that's subjective. I know this doesn't apply for everyone but I just find it hard to care if I don't have anyone to support.

True, but as long as I know my favourite has no chance, it's fine - it's only when they do and get fired/eliminated unfairly that I think something a bit funny's up (it also depends on who's left, and the current cast isn't half bad for me)

- Joseph wearing sunglasses while playing poker and wearing suspenders with his t-shirt even though they told him he looked stupid
- Charleine is great and it's kind of a shame that he haven't seen her in a boardroom because you know she'd be GOLD.
- Sam <////3 Obviously his time was gonna be up soon but he's such an angel.
- Scott is so insanely hot but he was pretty awful this episode. Not saying goodbye to nicest guy ever Sam is just not acceptable (although the idea that arguably the two nicest people in the process having a rivarly is kinda hilarious)
- The fact Selina has made it this far is nothing short of a miracle but thank God she's still there to cause friction just by existing.

I was loving Scott's ridiculous "um excuse me passer-by, I haven't finished what I'm saying" attitude, but he turned really sour in the boardroom. Poor Sam <\3

I loved Brett and Vana as a duo this week. And speaking of duo's, I wouldn't be surprised if Charleine and Richard make up the final 2. Something has to come of their rivalry, and what better way for it to happen.

Sam going was the right and only choice tbh, he was such a weak candidate.

Loved Brett and Vana as a duo

Well then The Apprentice probably isn't for you

Vana is really going up in my esimations. Hated her in Week 3, really like her now.

Don't get the Brett hate, he's entertaining and a good candidate!

Scott is horrible and was an awful PM.

Next week looks iconic, as has been said.

In fact I am surprised any of them are on the show!
