33. The Apprentice
It’s hard to believe there was a time when American president Donald Trump was just a billionaire TV host. ‘The Apprentice’ introduced him to a younger audience and subsequently began a search for him to find proteges to help run some of his businesses. The show might have been a hit at the time of airing, but since Donald moved into the White House a lot of behind the scenes stories have started to surface. As it turns out, Trump often fired contestants without consulting producers, which meant that they had to tailor and edit the footage to make certain contestants look unfavorable before their big exit. From a purely aesthetic perspective, the boardroom the series filmed their dismissals in was as fake as it gets, and even the shots where contestants leave the building in a taxi were staged.
