This is not a show I have watched the last few seasons it was on, but wanted to check it out with Arnold at the helm. Wow, he is just awful!!!! What the heck is up with him expecting people to call him Governor? Last I checked he's not in that role any more, is it a title he retains forever?? He's very full of himself, his hair is just as bad as Trump's, and he's just not likeable at all.
And the women's team really needs to pick it up or they're in big trouble

I was also surprised about the governor thing. I thought the men should have lost that 2nd round, but I guess both were pretty bad.
Also surprised that he dismisses with "you're terminated" followed by "hasta la vista." One would have been fine.

I saw Arnold on Kelly Live the other day. After his interview, I knew I would not miss a thing by NOT watching. Ugh. He grates on my last nerve.

I feel like this show use to be serious. Now it's just so cheesy with Arnold & they are making fun of the show. I'm not sure why they are going that route. I use to really like this show but now...ehh

I watched the first part of it.
What's with Arnold's eyes? He seemed squinty. His hair color does look like Trump's! Why are these guys afraid to let it go gray? It also looks like Arnold has used the same spray tan color as Trump.
Ok, my highlights are done.......

Just like President Obama will always be President Obama, Governors retain their title too. That said, it's pretty douche-y to insist people call you that in my opinion. I was half interested in some of the celebrities that were going to be on, but not enough to give a ratings click to anything associated with Trump.

DH was watching it. I think that the "celebrities" they have this time is a pretty weak lineup. And what is up with Arnold's hair? I noticed the weird color right off and thought maybe there was something wrong with the tv, LOL.

Nope, not watching, pretty much boycotting anything with Trump's brand.

You couldn't pay me to watch anything with Arnold in it or put money in Trumps pockets.

Ha! I'd actually like to boycott the next four years!

I thought Arnold was a very odd choice for the role. We have not watched it, but I cannot really see him shining in it or being interesting at all.

I watched it, and actually liked it! I think Arnold is a perfect choice. I was confused about the whole Gov. thing too. odd. The Men's team is SOO much better then the women's. Way more experience and talent.

I love Arnold, I won't apologize. He was a childhood hero of mine.
I'm not really into reality shows where the basis is a competition of sorts, but I tuned in because:
1. Arnold
2. Carson (he used to make me die laughing on Queer Eye)
3. Jon Lovitz always makes me laugh
4. Boy George--genuinely curious to see what he's like on a show like this, and I can't help but root for an 80s pop star who made it through 2016
5. Kyle, because I like her
6. Porsha, because she's not too bright but she's pretty humorous and quick with a retort
7. Vince Neil, because see #3
That said, I didn't make it through the whole two hours because I won't watch any show for that long. I liked what the men did with the Tyra makeup line, though. They turned what seemed like a disadvantage (being a group of men largely unfamiliar with makeup) into an asset with humor, plus they did their homework.

Trump still is credited as executive producer of the show. He still profits from the show, too.

I wasn't planning to watch, just as my own private boycott, but dh DVRed it. We both watched and, surprisingly, enjoyed it. Even Arnold. I just figured that calling him Governor and terminating team members were gimmicks.

I have not watched this show since it first aired. Honestly I am watching because of Boy George! Love him!!! If he goes, I go. I thought it extremely rude of Arnold to tell John he needs to be addressed as Govenor. I know it is all for show, but it made (to look) like John felt like a heel.

So who is in the boardroom advising Arnold? His children?  |

Why do you think the celebrities go on this show? The challenges are really hard and not their expertise. They have to call their friends every week and hit them up for money, who wants to do that? The women always leave crying. Kyle is already at peak with her celebrity as the RHBH is on right now, she doesn't need more exposure. She's busy with 6 clothing stores and a small child at home. I'm curious what she gets out of it? Do they get paid for this? I thought the money only goes to charity. But again Kyle doesn't need the money, her husband's career is blowing up. I googled and for the first season each cast member made $25,000, not much for them.
A couple weeks ago when Trump tweeted that this season sucked, that just seemed like fake advertisement to get people to watch the show. Was anyone really fooled by that comment?
