Re:What does HN think of the show Shark Tank? by BrandonWatson on Sunday August 23, 2009 @03:41PM (#780885)
I like seeing what projects on which people are working, but the investors are ridiculous. There's no amount of diligence presented, they never justify the valuations they pull out of the air, they always seem to want to own 51%, and they act like they are the only way that one of the entrepreneurs is going to make it. It feels almost predatory on the poor entrepreneurs they bring in front of the panel.

Of course, I have it on my DVR and can't not watch it. Someone said it was like a car wreck - more like a blimp accident.
