Must-see

The Apprentice, 8 p.m., Channels 5, 22 and Dateline, 9 p.m., Channels 5, 22.

NBC will be terribly disappointed if no one watches Thursday's Apprentice finale. With that in mind, it has a sort of two-hour preview.

First is the regular Wednesday rerun of the previous week's episode. We'll see Donald Trump winnow the field from four people to the two who compete in a partly live episode Thursday.

Scheduled to follow is a Dateline hour, taking a behind-the-cameras look at the show.
