EAST LANSING, MIThough she'd lived in denial for nearly a month, toy-store manager Ellen Cranmer admitted Monday that the reality show The Apprentice has finally sunk in. 'Normally I never watch those stupid reality shows, and I certainly don't integrate them into my regular week,' Cranmer said. 'But since around the time of the Trump Ice challenge, I've been passing on social events so I can be home Thursdays at 9 p.m.' Cranmer said that she was shocked when she realized she hadn't missed a single episode, and saddened by her belief that Amy will win.
