'Celebrity Apprentice' Not Coming Back to NBC

So long and farewell! NBC likely won’t bring back Celebrity Apprentice for another season.

The news comes five months after Arnold Schwarzenegger, who served as the hit series’ host when it was revived this year, announced that he will not be returning for another season. “I learned a lot, I had a great time, it was a really great opportunity. But under the circumstances I don’t want to do it again. even if asked I would decline,” the former California governor told Empire in March, before explaining that President Donald Trump, the show’s original host, is to blame.

“When people found out that Trump was still involved as executive producer and was still receiving money from the show, then half the people [started] boycotting it … and had a bad taste and I don’t want to participate as a spectator or as a sponsor or in any other way support the show. It’s a very divisive period now and I think this show got caught up in all that division.”
