Default Is it just me?

I'm watching and enjoying, but I kind of don't care about any of them?

I can't even remember half of their names it feels like Week Two where we should still be "getting to know" them.

Maybe they're just boring candidates, maybe it's directed or edited boringly, or maybe it's just me?

I’m bored with it so I don’t give it the same attention I once did. It’s the same old format every time. Rinse and repeat. They don’t get stand out characters any more.
….and why do they do that stupid thing in the mornings - ‘The cars will take you to such and such a place in 20 minutes’. They roll out of bed, shower, the gents shave, ladies do their make up, they dress and all march out in the allotted time looking all pristine and cool and unhurried. As if. It’s utterly ridiculous.

Of course they were never ready in " 20 minutes" ....that would be impossible.I thought by now... everyone figured out they were already up from 2 am or something , after all these years I think the candidates are prepared to be early risers . Everything else is just for TV production.

I remember an ex apprentice star even admitting, he'd hear the girls using hair dryers and getting ready well before they got the phone call.

I always find it takes a few weeks to start rooting for candidates. Although I’ve loved Amber Rose from the start.

Not one of them is a worthy winner imo. Makes the show so entertaining but I feel for Sugar having to pick one of this lot!
