Charisma Carpenter to be an Apprentice?
Cordelia Chase has always been one of my favorite characters on Buffy and Angel; she was a great comedic relief. Since the end of Angel, I've tried to catch all of her TV guest appearances because I knew I was always in for a fun ride.I watched her play a seer on Charmed, an opinionated young woman getting involved with an older man on Miss Match, a trophy wife and schemer on Veronica Mars, and, this week, play a member of the national chapter of Zeta Beta on Greek.
Charisma's roles have been entertaining but will Charisma Carpenter, the woman, be as fun to watch? We may find out soon as the word on the street is that she will be an apprentice on the celebrity version of NBC's The Apprentice.
TV Guide Online reports that reliable sources confirmed that Charisma Carpenter will be one of the job applicants in the upcoming season of Donald Trump's The Apprentice. The sources told TV Guide that "Charisma is ready to make like Alexis Carrington and bring out the claws if need be." I could totally picture her in an Alexis-type role since that was pretty much her role on Mars but this is "reality" TV, will she really be able to bring out the claws against other celebrities when she is playing... herself?
NBC doesn't want to officially confirm the casting right now. They are probably waiting for the complete list of participants before confirming anything. However, TV Squadder Bob released the names of a few of the participants a few weeks ago. Would you watch The Apprentice if Charisma was on board?
