The excruciating reality TV series known as "Celebrity Apprentice" now wraps up another torturous season of too many non sequiturs and inappropriate off the cuff remarks from the man who would be president.

A season where out of the blue, Donald Trump diverts a conversation by bringing up Lisa Rinna's painful public battle with her lip reduction, and belittles Star Jones' issues with the honey baby chatter from Meat Loaf, a man who cries at the drop of a hat.

All of the season's "celebrities" return for Marlee and John's final battle. Live Season Finale, Sunday 9/8c.

Watch as my pick to take it all, country singer John Rich and Oscar winner Marlee Matlin Duke it out in the nicest way for the win.

John Rich was on a group conference call with reporters including Monsters and Critics. “She’s (Marlee) wickedly smart, she has a great sense of humor and she’s very charming...I consider her like a superhero — she needs an ‘M’ on her chest.”

In the interview Matlin revealed she's a pro at reading people’s faces, and she knew John was firing on all cylinders when she met him.

And what about Gary Busey? The shameless hawker of his celebrity wares who was caught dead to rights trying to line up some work while mid-challenge for Aussie Gold? Rich says, “It is a management situation. Gary, as everybody saw, has these moments of clarity and genius thought. The rest of the time, he’s like a tornado — he tears up a lot. Gary’s really loud and going in all directions at the same time.”
