The New Celebrity Apprentice, which I sure you know this, but to be thorough, I thought you should know that Arnold Schwarzenegger has "terminated" is role on the show. In a press release he said, "I loved every second of working with NBC and Mark Burnett. Everyone -- from the celebrities to the crew to the marketing department -- was a straight 10, and I would absolutely work with all of them again on a show that doesn't have this baggage."  That baggage being the pettiness of Donald Trump.

WE TV goes all out!!! or not. They're going to be premiering a few spin-offs...  Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition (premieres on Friday, April 28) and Growing Up Hip Hop Atlanta (premiering later in the year).
