I'm so intrigued by this show

I must admit it has sucked me in.

I can't believe they rejected the dvd woman!

I thought her product was pretty spectacular! I am a bit surprised that it was the woman who gave the final no too.

I think what shot her in the foot was the statement that she needed the PR

If she said she needed to take it to the next level and left it at that, the woman wouldn't have voted against her

OMG - that woman is a therapist and created those things for kids?

That was horrible. Adding to what the judges said - I'll say that I don't think kids should be encouraged to turn their anger and agression into "fun". That's not dealing with the problem.

"I'll say that I don't think kids should be encouraged to turn their anger and agression into "fun". That's not dealing with the problem."

That's exactly how I felt. It seemed like the product encouraged negative behavior. No thank you.

Apparently we're the only ones watching this program LOL

Surprising considering the garbage they've been playing on NBC tonight (though The Office is on right now).

1. I only watched the second half.

2. I can't believe two of them voted for that FreshEnd guy to move on!

3. My heart goes out to the DVD woman. I actually liked her product. Luckily, she got on air. That might be all the PR she needs to get started.

4. That kid with the dog invention was hilarious. Oh, how I loved him. I half expected him to go to the judges table and hand out his card at the end.

5. My mom was talking to me and I missed the therapist woman! What exactly was her invention?

I felt the same way as I was watching this. That was so terrible. What was that woman thinking? The kids could sufficate.

I haven't had a chance to watch this one yet but I'll be helping to cast Simon's other NBC show...

a talent search that is American Idolish but ALL talents and ALL ages. I'm still with another project now but I'll fill you guys in on the details of the casting calls and such once I start in 3 weeks.

I loved the dog-air-conditioner kid! And when the judges were all, "Well, why would you put your dog in a hot car in the first place?" I wanted to yell at the TV, "Um, weren't you listening? The dog is already in the car! You're running errands. It's not hot in the car yet; you're driving. You get to where you're going, set up the air conditioner, and now you don't have to worry about the car getting too hot (which it could even with the window cracked open)! Luxury for your beloved pooch! Great idea! Are you STUPID????" Aargh.

awww I know, that kid was brilliant. I felt so bad for him....that was so dumb, why the hell didn't they let him through?! The idea was A LOT smarter than some of the others..

I couldn't believe it when the guy with the redesigned tree-trimmer and the Wizard of Oz act got moved on. Seriously? And the cute kid with the original invention didn't?

yes this show has sucked me in as well.

I loved that kid, his idea was awesome, pet owners would flock to get a product like that because no one likes to leave their dog in a hot car while they run errands, but people love to bring their dog to do the errands, so it would be win win. I hope like pet smart or someone is watching this show and gets that kids invention a shot!

I was cooking dinner during most of it, so I didn't really pay attention.

I did watch Evan and Jaren (sp?)'s pit bowl thing. Kinda weird... something I won't buy.

Oh man... Evan and Jaron were hilarious! I couldn't believe that it was them!

"5. My mom was talking to me and I missed the therapist woman! What exactly was her invention?"

Sorry just got the chance to watch this show on Tivo today.

Her invention was called the Tizzy Tube. You stick your kids in it when they have a tantrum and they run into each other or something stupid like that. The one girl said it was disturbing and pretty much said that she was a terrible mother!

I missed this show. When is it on next?

Everything. Is going to be. All right.

Oh, God. I can't even believe he made it through, but those things certainly gave me a good laugh last night. I can't believe the autobib made it through either. I mean, it is a GREAT idea, but I couldn't get over the fact that it was pretty much just an unfolded napkin. I hope that product becomes more that it is now.

Why is this the first time I've seen this thread? And why haven't I ever heard about this show? This is SO up my alley!

I think it's Wednesdays at 9. Either 8 or 9, on ABC. You've only missed one episode this season so far, so you didn't miss much. :)

Excellent - thanks, Tch! (I love saying that )
