If you've seen the original with Donald Trump, there is scarcely a need to view this carbon copy. Read full review

Like "Martha," in which she is required to appear interested in celebrities and to whip up the crowd, "The Apprentice" is not a perfect fit. Read full review

NBC's teasers for The Apprentice: Martha Stewart had hinted that she would make heads roll and grown men cry. But the premiere episode was a gauzy tribute to her life's work, an evening-wear version of frilly, fun-loving "Martha," Ms. Stewart's new daytime talk show. Read full review

There is no fear in this show or any of the doom, shame, ignominy or flat-out reprobation that comes with getting one's head handed to one by the Donald.... Without fear, there is no danger and without danger, no drama. Read full review

This version to me is much better than Donald Trump... I think people expect her to be like Donald, but she is not...She does things with class and I like that...

This show is lame lame lame. Donald Trump, who is an unabashed pompous ass, provides some drama and flair in his show and appears to at least be a GENUINE pompous ass.

Donald Trump, who is an unabashed pompous ass, provides some drama and flair in his show and appears to at least be a GENUINE pompous ass. Martha, on the other hand, appears to be faking it - badly. She tries to appear human and personable but it comes accross as an insincere attempt. Martha is generally unpleasant to watch or listen to. I recommend if you can't be real, at least take some acting lessons.… Expand

I never liked this show. Even though I've never seen, I've read about in TV Guide. This is a total rip-off of Donald Trump's "The Apprentice". Why did Martha Stewart have to do this? Why couldn't she have gone back to her cooking show or something. Martha should be I never liked this show. Even though I've never seen, I've read about in TV Guide.
