I swear I think it's gonna be Annie. She's such a POKER PLAYER! But, I'd like to see JOAN KICK her ASS BIG TIME Cause I LOVE JOAN!

Did Joan come back?

I'm rooting for Joan.

Besides, Annie's such a snarky, deceitful, wretched being...who wants to be around that 24/7, just waiting for her to stab them in the back with the knife she sharpens every night and keeps at her side?

Nope. Joan all the way. Besides, I've always loved her. Her personal story has always been an inspiration to me. What I loved about her being on this show,is that it took how we usually dismiss older people in the workplace, devalue them, and totally sent that concept to hell.

At 76, she was the one who was most knowledgeable, so wise, so connected, always rose to the occasion...the others, though younger and bright, were always wrapped up in ego and instant gratification issues. This old broad has been through so much personally and professionally, she's been knocked on her ass enough to give her a backbone of steel and skin like Teflon...yet she understands the need for ethics and (when appropriate) compassion. Team Joan all the way for me!

I like Joan too... I have a feeling though that Annie will win it. Look at Pierce he was the most hated, but he won last time.

Joan. I really hopes she wins. Annie has a deceitful and stuck up attitude.Annie is very cunning, so that might push her ahead in the end. I still think Joan has a real chance of winning.
I thought it was silly that Brande said she wanted to faced Annie in the final task than Joan or Jesse James.
I like Jesse James but he didn't stand out in the end.

Loved the fight scene between Joan and Annie, it left us with some trulyclassic lines...


"Your people give money with BLOOD on it...!"

"YOU are a POKAH PLAYAH...! "

So camp

It's a game, I don't know why Joan hates Annie so much. Was it because Annie at one time told Joan that she was going to bring Brandy into the boardroom but she later changed her mind. I think if so then she was just using strategy to win. I think this is a game of strategy as much as brain power.

Also don't forget Joan and Melissa at one point were on one team and using team power to win. They were using strategy as much as the next person.

I think Annie will win but I like Joan better.

I liked Joan during the Hotel challenge; T-Boz did great delegating as team leader (and I like how just because she was team leader she wasn't afraid to put on that housekeeper uniform and whip those rooms into shape). Joan absolutely ROCKED it as the hotel concierge, though...she took service back to the old skool style, and was awesome! She was working the s*** out of her resources to solve problems with total poise and charm. I remember the boys' team couldn't even get people matching glasses in their rooms for wine




Her 76 year old ass tracked down a peep show for her guests when they wanted it

I think Joan although I didn't follow it anymore when Brian Mcknight went off that's my dude.

He seemed like a very level-headed, task-oriented guy. That hotel assignment between Dennis Rodman and him ended up a total fiasco, though.

Strategy is one thing, but Annie is an obnoxious jackass to boot.

Ottensen said:

he completely gaveup and seemed disinterrested after he went home for 2 days.

I want Joan to win. Though I'm not a big fan of Joan's, I think she is so right about Annie. She is manipulative and talks constantly.

NMuzakNSoul said:

Yeah, I didn't like it when Brian left either.

Brian would have been perfect to compete in the songwriting task last night. Clint Black's song sucked. He didn't even consider the audience that would be purchasing Chicken of the Sea. He wrote something he would want to sing. I'm glad his ass got fired.

Go Joan!

Clint did the same thing when they had the food task for creating a healthy new choice meal for Schwann's Foods (which I incidentally give as random long-distance gifts to my family in the US ). He made the advertising campaign all about himself as a spokesperson, when maybe he may not have been the best choice for the entire demographic. It was very self-plugg-ish.

As for Brian...yup,I think he went home and realized he simply had other things to do...and in all sincerity will assuredly come up with his 250,000 for his charity through other donors without having to do the whole Donald thing...make no mistake, there's nothing wrong with it all, but I definitely think some personalities are more suited to the drama and rigamareaux of this sort of show than others.

Like I said before....I'm allll about Team Joan, I'm rooting for the Grandmaw, in all her 'Russian Jewish Famed Neurosurgeon Daughter Dark Comic turned Business Mogul that Was Birthed, Bred In, and Breathes the Streets of New York, Having Lost Everything and Rebulit 3 Fortunes-Chutzpah!'I'm riding for the 76 year old that can find a peep show for her guests years after Gulliani sweeped the streets of Gotham...I would have no doubt that her connections hooked her up with something straight out of "SHORTBUS"

It will be Annie because she's a fake evil. I'm rooting for Joan though

Ottensen said:

Just like Joan said, Annie will stab you (the blonde) in the back. As soon as Trump gave Annie the option, she didn't choose blondie.

Ottensen said:

I didn't know they did a Hotel themed episode that was so fun watching that! Dennis is crazy

daPrettyman said:

I couldn't agree with you more. I got so happy when Joan was describing Annie cause thats what I was seeing. Annie is nothing but a "snake in the grass"
who'll do anything to win.

Go Joan!

So Joan won it, I must agree she was nicer than Annie. I would call both of them Whore pit vipers tho...
