The ad executives clearly had no sense of humor, not the slightest idea of what a viral video is. Nor does Donald Trump. So why did they combine wanting a laundry detergent at aimed at housewives, produced in a format that doesn't really apply to that demographic? Sure housewives see videos, but I'd have to guess they're not a huge percentage of that audience. The simple fact that one team couldn't stop themselves from laughing at the other team's video showed there was a clear winner. It's why I really don't watch this show. The "firings" have always been totally arbitrary and total bullshit. And that was the problem. The Ad executives refused to give any clue as to what type of thing they wanted. They basically just sat and said, whatever would insult her when they were asked clear questions as to what was appropriate instead of saying yes or no. They purposely wern't clear about their wants. If they'd said nothing that would be offensive in the meetings at least one team would have changed their video. They didn't really want a viral video, they just wanted a funny commercial. Firing T-boz was absurd, she didn't volunteer to be fired, she volunteered to go into the board room which many players have done in the past. Firing Chloe if done seperatly would have been fine, but not after the task in that way. And Trump allowed one of his players to be drunk on the job without being fired and that was somehow acceptable. And he could have figured out a way to get rid of Chloe and justify it if he'd gotten her to say that she didn't understand the video. Throughout this season Trump has consistantly fired the wrong person if keeping the person with the drama in was acceptable. Dennis stayed weeks longer than he should have, Tom stayed longer than he should have because they brought the drama. Those two were fired because he needed two girls to go and he needed borring people to go that didn't bring on the drama.

She has done her time and is attending her classes what in the world does it have to do with his show to bring it up on national t.v. No....she clearly hadn't "done her time".....she still had stuff to do. Her mistake interfered with his job because she had to miss a task because of it. She exposed HERSELF to national humiliation by being on this show.

She exposed HERSELF to national humiliation by being on this show. I can't believe she tainted the noble Kardashian family name

He went for the dirty joke that men would laugh at. Now if you want a mom and housewife to pass it along try this: Hubby calls suggesting doing the dirty laundry. His thought bubble shows wifey in sexy outfit. Cut to wife who's thought bubble shows hunky hubby bare chested in jeans standing over the washer, bottle of ALL in hand doing the laundry. Purring voice over "He gets it!" Next scene hubby arrives home, plops in his easy chair and calls out "Honey what's for dinner?" with a replay of his previous thought bubble. Last scene, hubby enters bedroom "How about that dirty laundry?" Cut to wifey in her flannel pjs, with a neatly folded little stack of laundry, All bottle propped in front of it and a cucumber lying on top of the stack of laundry. Wifey looks up from her trashy romance novel and says "Oh honey, that's okay it was a small load. I did it by hand." Now all my mom friends (smack in the middle of the demographic) agree that's a video we would pass along!

All 3X Concentrated Small and Mighty Stainlifter was given one of the worst ratings of all the products they tested. Maybe it isn't surprising that such clueless executives would be associated with an inferior product. For top-loading washing machines, it was the second worst detergent tested, with an overall score of 62 out of 100. Not only are competing products more effective, but some of them are cheaper as well! Obviously the videos should have used as a source of humor the idea that anyone would buy that crap. This proves one thing: ALL MIDGETS ARE STUPID!!!!

How did it rate as a masturbatory lube? I can provide anecdotal evidence that it dries up too quickly.

Like it wasn't ridiculous enough already. Trump manages to even Trump himself and fire two completely random people for no fucking reason. Tionne was there just because and Khloe had a legal matter she needed to clear up. That's the short version. It didn't matter if it was a DUI from before the show. Trump had no business bringing that up in the first place, let alone make a huge production of what a horrible human being Khloe is. Trump is a fucking sadist. I also agree with Vic about double standards because Trump has always enjoyed casual lasciviousness. Blatantly. It's how he is but he acts all puritanical when it comes to ads. WTF? Those ad managers are the sorriest examples I've ever seen. They clearly have no idea of the creative side of the business and couldn't create a proper brief if their lives depended on it. Got to love how inept their answers were when they were asked questions. They were clearly conservative had their very fixed idea of what they wanted yet told the contestants that they were leaving it up to their taste. Stupid. Their comments abot the two videos was even more telling because they were complete morons and simply did not understand that they were given what they asked for with the one with Jesse. Clint's video was just crap. Even worse than cucumber porn. And also have to love how they added in the voiceover about Dennis when he was talking to them at the start. Hilarious. And such bullshit. He just had to keep going with that drinking message from last week.

So the whole "Khloe was missing work time" excuse doesn't fly.

It was pretty terrible. I thought the "real" All viral videos on their website are terrible as well. Joan's was awful - Melissa's....I chuckled a couple of times. But neither of them were viral videos. They were just long commercials I agree - the execs were CLUELESS about what a viral video is. They just heard other people talk about them, and thought they'd appear cool by suggesting ALL do one too My housewife friends and I think that Clint't team had the better idea, just poorly executed. He went for the dirty joke that men would laugh at. Now if you want a mom and housewife to pass it along try this.......blah, blah, blah-blah, blah, blah Nope - sorry, that's boring and vapid and frau-tastically unfunny

Duh...WOMEN buy detergent. I love this show and Trump is comedy gold. But. He flip flops, saying "well, you have to support your team and be loyal yadda yadda", and then completely shoots down T Boz for doing that very thing. Bogus.

My many housefrau friends and I all have our files of downloaded virals. Believe me, more than a few of them revolve around hot, half-naked men and household chores. Many have suggested that the ALL's target doesn't do virals - we sure as hell do! Last night's videos failed for two reasons - 1)the company representatives had no clue what a viral video is and could articulate what they really wanted to either team and 2) both teams missed their target audience. One team a late teen/early 20s type and the other targeted older men. Perhaps you didn't find my version funny because you're not a frau?
