Object of the game:
14 players are divided into two teams
The celebrities are playing to raise money for charity
Each episode the teams are assigned the same task
Each team chooses a project manager (team leader) who leads the team
The team that earns the most money (or in some cases critical praise) for the task wins
The project manager (team leader) of the losing team selects two other members of the losing team to meet with Donald Trump
Each pleads why they should continue on but Donald Trump eventually eliminates one (or more) of them
Theme song 'For The Love Of Money' by the O'jays

Why Apprentice 7 - Celebrity Apprentice might be annoying:

Almost every task was based on using contacts to raise money rather than creativity and business savvy.
Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth verbally and physically assaulted Piers Morgan.
Gene Simmons purposely got fired ny refusing to bring the correct people into the boardroom.
It teaches that winning is more important than sportsmanship and ethics.
It is truly sad to watch a then 25 year old, billionaire daughter Ivanka Trump berate the candidates.
Firings are somewhat arbitrary and completely at the whim of Donald Trump.
Vincent Pastore got upset and walked off the series.

Why Apprentice 7 - Celebrity Apprentice might not be annoying:

Lots of money was raised for the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, Food Allergy Anaphylaxis Network and other charities.
Annette Dziamba, the winner of My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss, was Trump's assistant.
Erin Burnett and Jim Cramer chose Carol Alt to be in the final two, but Trump ignored them and put in Piers Morgan.
Despite trying to make the finale Brit vs American, the British guy Piers Morgan was raising money for injured U.S. soldiers.
The show's popularity grew since Apprentice 6, with 12 million watching the finale as opposed to 8 million.
Piers Morgan dominated and made the show interesting.
