Donald Trump's 'The Apprentice' Makes a Comeback on Prime Video
Well, folks, here’s a blast from the past—Donald Trump’s iconic reality show, The Apprentice , is back and streaming for the first time ever on Amazon Prime Video. That’s right, the show that turned Trump from a real estate mogul into a household name is making a return, bringing with it all the drama, cutthroat competition, and, of course, the legendary “You’re fired!” moment.
Amazon announced that The Apprentice will be rolling out in stages, with the first season already available and the remaining six seasons dropping weekly. This business competition series originally premiered in 2004 and quickly became a cultural phenomenon, drawing millions of viewers each week. Created by reality TV mastermind Mark Burnett, the show pitted 16 ambitious contestants against each other in various business challenges, all vying for a coveted position within the Trump Organization.

For many, The Apprentice was more than just entertainment—it was a look into Trump's no-nonsense approach to business. The show played a crucial role in shaping his public persona, one that he would later leverage in his political career. His children, Ivanka, Donald Jr., and Eric, eventually joined as advisors, adding to the show’s allure. Over the years, The Apprentice spun off into several versions, including The Celebrity Apprentice , which featured high-profile names like Gary Busey, Omarosa, LaToya Jackson, and Lisa Rinna.
Interestingly, the return of The Apprentice comes at the same time as The Apprentice biopic, a controversial film starring Sebastian Stan, which explores Trump’s early business career and the influence of lawyer Roy Cohn. While the movie sparked backlash from Trump himself, the reality show’s return to streaming has received an enthusiastic response.
Trump himself seems excited about revisiting the show that helped cement his celebrity status. In a statement, he expressed his enthusiasm: “I look forward to watching this show myself. Such great memories, and so much fun, but most importantly, it was a learning experience for all of us!” Mark Burnett, the show’s creator, also chimed in, calling it one of the best projects he’s ever produced.
Beyond just nostalgia, some speculate that Amazon’s move to host The Apprentice might have political undertones, as the streaming giant, owned by Jeff Bezos, has had a historically tense relationship with Trump. Whether this is a strategic business decision or just a play to attract more viewers, one thing’s for sure—fans of the show now have a chance to relive the boardroom drama all over again.
So, if you’re ready for a trip down memory lane—or if you missed The Apprentice the first time around—Prime Video has got you covered. Grab your popcorn and get ready to hear those two iconic words once again: You’re fired!
