I’m a tad bit biased because I cover the show, but I happen to think that one of the most quotable series on TV right now is The Celebrity Apprentice. Granted you could probably say as much for any one of the “look at the idiot ‘celebs'” shows that are currently on, but consider this: The Celebrity Apprentice casts D- List “celebrities,” decades past their prime, who try to shill their fame and rolodexes for their favorite charities … or in an attempt to influence a jury pool. But either way, the entire point is that they need to wipe off all the shame and embarrassment and hold their heads up high — which inevitably results in a ton of ridiculously asinine quotes from a dozen deluded folks.
And Goldberg, who can hurt me a lot so is obviously not included in any of my derisive talk. He’s awesome.
