The reality TV show that made Donald Trump a celebrity household name has begun streaming for the first time since its 2004 premiere.
Amazon Prime Video announced Monday that viewers would be able to stream all seven seasons of “The Apprentice.”
The first season of the Mark Burnett-produced competition show, which also made a star out of contestant Omarosa Manigault, hit the platform Monday — with the remaining six seasons rolling out weekly through April 27.
President Trump said in a statement, “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!”
With 16 contestants performing various business-related challenges in pursuit of a $250,000 job at the Trump Organization, “The Apprentice” became a ratings juggernaut for NBC. Trump, then known as a real estate mogul, gained fame with his signature catchphrase: “You’re fired.”
The Emmy Award-nominated series spawned several spinoffs including “The Celebrity Apprentice,” “The Apprentice: Martha Stewart” and “The Ultimate Merger” — a dating competition where eligible bachelors vied for romance with troublemaking Trump protegee Manigault.
His three eldest children, Ivanka, Don Jr. and Eric Trump, appeared as advisers through the franchise, which drew celebrities such as Joan Rivers, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brett Michaels, Dionne Warwick, Arsenio Hall and LaToya Jackson.
