Survivor Richard Hatch is heading off to jail but a powerful friend wants to help him.

The Celebrity Apprentice contestant turned himself into U.S. marshals on Monday to begin a nine-month prison sentence for failing to re-file his taxes. But, the host and powerful figure behind the Apprentice shows says he wants to help.

"I don't know what it is with him," Donald Trump tells TV Guide Network's Hollywood 411. "I like him, he's a nice guy. I thought he served his time and now he's going back to jail. ... I'm going to have to sit down with him and talk to him."

Hatch previously served three years for failing to pay taxes on his Survivor winnings. He was released and ordered to re-file his taxes.

Trump also claimed that he came to respect Hatch after working with him on Celebrity Apprentice, adding: "He wasn't loved on set because it's a competition but I will say he was respected.

"[Helping him is] something I'd think about. He's been a great character on the show. If he makes it to the finals - and I'm not saying he is - I'm sure we can get him time off for good behavior."

What is so "nice" about Richard Hatch? He's an arrogant, bullying SOB. He treats people with contempt. In the 2nd episode I didn't even notice him. I think he's going to stay under the radar for awhile especially after the way he treated David Cassidy. And then they lost to the women by 50%. They only made half of what the women pulled in.

On this show, Trump is looking for cutthroats. Not that they'll win, but he seems to want 2 alligator types going after one another. And that's why he kept on Richard Hatch.

As far as the women this week, I wish they had thrown off Dionne Warwick. She is an obstinate bitch. I couldn't believe it. She should stick to singing "Walk on By" or "Do you know the way to San Jose?" She takes offense when there's no offense meant. She thinks she doesn't have to obey the Project Manager. Also, the way she is dressed -- is she living on the street? Talk about poverty. She's impoverished 2 ways: as a team player and apparently money-wise.

Richard Hatch has been ordered back to jail, although he'll miss at least the last show, where everyone is reunited. He has to return to prison this Monday March 14, 2011. He was also told he was under supervision and should not have been in the game show, Celebrity Apprentice.

I guess what goes around, comes around. During the men's project, a burly Richard Hatch literally pushed David Cassidy away from him twice. In the famous Board Room, David Cassidy said he wasn't small, delicate, etc., which Hatch maintained he was. Then Cassidy said he was 5'8 and 140 lbs. I have to say, he's no 5'8. He looked very small next to the other men. I would say he's 5'3.

In the limo home he said he could have punched Hatch but that's not his style. I think Hatch would have annihilated him. And that's why Trump fired Cassidy. He was small and he'd come against the men again in much the same way. Donald Trump could have fired Hatch because everyone hates him and he lost. But I think, although Cassidy has a following, Hatch is more likely to stir up trouble and there'll be more displays of emotion caused by him. Better ratings.


I have a 10 minute video of David Cassidy in a recent live performance. Enjoy.
