The Trumpbowl

The live April 22 finale of NBC's The Apprentice: Los Angeles will emanate from one of the most famous landmarks in Los Angeles - the Hollywood Bowl. That is where Donald Trump changes his weekly line from "you're fired" to "you're hired" for that last person standing among the 18 contestants.

"They see actual ghosts and ectoplasmic emanations. . . . Raines is . . . like Jimmy Stewart when he sees Harvey or, I guess, Big Bird when he sees Snuffleupagus. It's just all in his mind."

Jeff Goldblum, star of NBC's Raines, premiering March 15, comparing his character, a detective who somehow connects with the victims of the crimes he investigates, with the Ghost Whisperer and Medium characters
