Does anone else watch this show? If not it is a show where people that make a product can come in and show their product to billionaires and get a loan in exchange for a percentage of their business to try to get it popular. For example the pillow pet started on Shark Tank I beleive.

I watch it once in a while, and it's kind of cool but I don't like how that one bald-headed millionaire is such a jerk all the time. I'm not sure if you ever saw it, but this one show, American Inventor, was pretty cool. They canceled it, though D:

I watch Shark Tank. It's like Dragon's Den (a show of a similar concept that's in countries like Canada and the UK), but just with a different title. I sometimes laugh when I see an idiot try to pitch an idea to the Sharks, then the idiot keeps making invalid arguments to the Sharks until security comes. But the show also has some cool ideas being pitched as well.

Love the show! Some people come up with some really stupid things to sell though.

And that's why the Sharks are here.

They over dramatize it a bit, but I love the show.

My favorite guy was the one who had this offshore hurricane maker, who used hurricane energy to make power... and the discard is gold.

I couldn't agree more. Sometimes I think he is Bill O'Reilly's posh cousin. I mean, their stubbornness is outstanding in bad way.

I like the show...but sometimes I really question the Sharks. I've seen episodes where a person comes in with a great and original product (which the sharks acknowledge as it being so) and they all pass. Another person comes in with a product that obviously won't take off and one ends up buying it

Oh and then the bidding wars sometimes haha

I'll pay you $100,000 for 20%
Alright...I'll one up him and give you $50,000 for 30%, and I'll even give you advice (disclaimer: Advice will be very rare and will most likely just be calling you asking where my profit is)
