Comments on: Apprenticed http://wolfangel.calltherain.net/archives/2004/09/24/apprenticed/ this is a wolf angel & it eats the people it's supposed to help. A wolf angel is not a good angel to have looking out for you.

I'm with you about the bowties, and you're quite right that there must be a lot of smart businesspeople who aren't attractive. At the same time, it seems to me that the contestants aren't as attractive as last season's, especially the men. I can’t help watching The Apprentice…I lurve it!

They're less charming, or less friendly, perhaps, which might make them seem less attractive -- but I actually find they're more just plain physically attractive than last season. But I found most of the friendliness came off as smarm last time anyhow. I can accept the attractiveness, vaguely (although if it's unnecessary on Survivor -- not that they're all unattractive, but they're not all attractive -- I submit it's probably unnecessary here too), but not grouped with (almost) everyone being white. I have this disturbing feeling that it will come down to "white guys, token minority, token woman", with "white guy" winning again. Yes, I know that Carolyn's existence suggests he thinks highly of at least one woman, but . . . I don't know. I'm just suspicious. The men, maybe; I don’t find the women any less attractive, overall.
