Just curious what you think or have seen a new show that has been on a for a while- The American Inventor. BTW, that show is produced by Simon Cowell.

There are 4 judges on the panel (3 men, one woman), and one of them is a "know-it-all." If I understand correctly or incorrectly, there is one man who is a judge from the United Kingdom.

There are a few that are worthwhile going on to the next round from my perspective, but most of them all are quite ridiculous and shall I say, pitiful.

To move on to the next round, it requires 3 "yeas." At times, I find the disputes, bickering, debating among the judges funny to witness.

I hate that guy! All he says is "I've done research in blah blah blah"

Still haven't decided if I like the show though. Seeing what comes out next is fun, but usually a disappointment. The ideas just are not that great. Maybe they are just waiting till round 2 to show the good stuff. Also all the emphasis on the crying, and I put my lifes savings into this is getting old quick.

p.s. the pet petter thing was ridiculous. all my dog would do is bark non stop at the thing :roll:

Amen to that! Dogs would rather have human hands pet them, not the mechanical thing. Cats would even scoot away from the pet petter, yet they still scoot away from the owners and strangers anyway.

This show is a rip-off of the show that aired on the USA network just a few months ago. I dont even understand how they are getting away with this. However, I vote for the "Fart pad" (I cant believe I just said fart on the air) and the portable urination privacy curtain that can be used on any street corner. Ewwwwwwwwww LMAO

David Sedaris does a hilarious bit about something called the "Stadium Pal" on his live at Carnegie Hall CD - too funny!
