The Donald is doing a "Deal" (http://\"http://www.thefutoncritic.com/cgi/pr.cgi?id=20060203nbc01\")...Nothing like cross-promotion, eh?

Look at it this way, at least they haven't done "Celebrity Newsmaker Deal or No Deal." However, I really don't want to jinx it.

Personally, I'd rather have Darrell Hammond impersonating Trump as a special guest.

Hammond as Trump: "Yeah I'll take case 26...open it up, Apprentice, gonna be HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!  HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!  You're fired!"

This isn't a celebrity episode, it's a cameo by the Donald. You're reading WAY too much into it.

And Jim, it's a good thing I caught the beginning of your message when I reread it...I was afraid you meant a certain other Hammond for a second (too many beers during the Super Bowl party tends to do that to you)

And it's nothing more than when Alex Trebek used to do a walk-on on another NBC game show to plug his new show.  That's all it is.

I would've been expecting NBC to do something like "Howie and The Donald--The Art of the Deal--NBC Mondays" to promote the new lineup.
