Reality (winner) TV

Laurel, L.I.: I’m so upset with myself for falling back into the grips of “The New Apprentice.” After the Supreme Court episodes of several weeks ago, I swore off watching. As episode 545 has come and gone, the writers of the new episodes have brought me back. “Hugs in Helsinki,” and then “Would, Wouldn’t” had brilliant hooks. I couldn’t resist, and I am back devouring the reactions, denials, and the preview for the fall episodes of “Putin In the White House” (or is he already there?). I’m back and can’t wait for tomorrow and what could (or couldn’t) happen next. Jim Underwood
