Shark Tank, anyone? I enjoyed it. It moves comparatively fast. Promo for next week got me.

I liked the show. Some ideas were good, others not so good. The guy who mortgaged his house twice, drained his kids college funds, wiped out his 401K and maxed his credit cards was clueless. I didn't get his idea and neither did the panel. What more can I say about the "bluetooth implant" guy except YUK! A surgically implanted device that you recharge nightly by sticking a needle in your head????? I don't think so.

Right, Bombaycat. Has he had the surgery? Does it work? If not him, anyone else? Yeah, right. Would a doctor do it? Ha ha.

I recorded this and will catch it when I can. I thought it looked kind of good.

Ok, I got to watch this last night and I really enjoyed it. Like Color said, it moves quickly.

The woman Shark--she looks so familiar to me. I know her smile reminds me of Annie Lennox, but it seems like I've seen her somewhere before.

Smokey, I believe she's on the Today Show from time to time to discuss the economy and real estate.

This show reminded me of America's Next Great Inventor, even though they weren't all inventions.

Hey, remember the winner who invented the Anecia Survival Capsule? It is over 3 years and I haven't heard about or seen it.

Bombaycat, thanks for helping me realize where I've seen her before. That must be it.

I just watched my recording of this show. I really enjoy it! I think it's a great show and really interesting to see just what these money geniuses think will be a lucrative business. I was a little surprised at how excited they all were over the Pear lady, the gourmet stuff. I think it sounded good, but not great.

I loved the English teacher's ideas. I hope he makes good money from it.

I was screaming at the seatbelt guy to take the million!!!!

The english teacher was cute when he said 'may i take notes??' when they were making so many different offers. I am glad he took it.

i guess he was afraid he would be known as the guy who sold 'post it notes' for one mill...wouldn't bother me none. why not counter back??? he acted like he was afraid they were competitors and going to buy it to keep it off the market.

Don't like the one shark -- "You are dead to me if you turn around." That's trite.

Frankly, I could live pretty well on a mil for the rest of my life, so I would have taken it. :-)

Colord, I don't like that either. Sounds like a bad mafia movie.

I watched this on hulu and I like it a lot. Like Smokey said it a fast moving show. The "Sharks" seem to move it along at a nice pace....easy tv watching.

None of the businesses sounded that wonderful. I hope to see a product or business that makes me say...WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT....but so far nada.

Those college guys with the 'foxes packing boxes' thing were stupid. They just wanted free money to start up another piece of their current business, and didn't get that the investor would need collateral in the form of the business?

Seat belt guy was dumb for not taking the million. He didn't want the thing to "sit on a shelf", so instead it's going to only be available to Vegas people who happen to hear of it by luck and want to spend the $299 at an after-market shop.

The folding guitar was genius. Too bad the guy wasn't willing to bend (ha ha, pun intended) and make a deal. He'll never make money until he sells the rights to the neck-hinge to a company that can mass produce and sell them.

I caught the show for the first time last night. I enjoyed it. I thought the playpen cover was a good idea. But I would have a hard time giving up 40% of the company and patent rights.

The grafitti guy came up w/ a good idea for a business, but the sharks were right that since he didn't own the patent for the cleaner, everyone else can copy him and the manufacturer can start selling it retail at anytime.

Did anyone watch last night?

I saw Cactus Jack pitching his push-up thingie. I missed whether he accepted the Sharks offer. Anyone know what happened?

Last night was a rerun. The lady shark offered him the money if he would use his own equipment and lose a certain amount of weight doing so (maybe 30 lbs, I can't exactly remember). He took the offer and left. The other sharks said she's not going to lose her money because Jack probably won't lose the weight.

Thanks, Kookliebird!

Karunna, They kept running an advertisment last night to catch the show next week in their new time (Tuesday's at 8). Since this is only the 2nd time i caught the show, I was confused since it was already Tuesday at 8. Since it was a rerun, I guess that explains it. lol!

Was this past Sunday's show (the 13th) a rerun, too? I've recorded it but not watched it. The Cactus Jack one was actually on a week ago last Sunday, the 6th, for the first time.

Smokey, I don't think Sunday's was a rerun, I had not seen it before.

They gave an update on the guy with the pies who took the deal early in the season. They really delivered!

Sunday's show was new. Last night was a rerun.

I really enjoy the show. Sunday had a guy that used to be a venture capitalist. I don't remember his product, but the sharks wanted to offer him a seat at the shark table when he was done. He was really good.

Kook, the VC guy was selling health bars that people could create for their individual palates via a website.
