Whatever happened to the winner from last year? I still think of the bathroom clip lady every time I am at the mall bathrooms.

Bathroom clip lady was robbed! |

I think the safety capsule is still getting tweaked.

Bicycle hubcap dude was way scary. I felt threatened just watching him on TV let alone being in the same room with him.

Alright just end the show, the firefighter has won. |

The producers have clearly told Peter to Simon Cowell-ize it a bit more this year, so he becomes the standout asshole judge!
Nice to see Sara again...still think she got robbed on Branson's show... Therapy buddy guy was clearly looking to become the William Hung of American Inventor! Quote: Once he made his initial presentation, I yelled out "We have our winner!" |

firefighter has a great concept.
the purpose of this round is $50,000 to develop the invention. and that one dick wasn't convinced firefighter could get a working prototype with $50,000? i'm sure that asshat voted yes on something tonight. does anyone remember? what ever it was it must be better than perhaps saving lives... |

I channeled surfed into this and was hooked.
I loved the therapy buddy guy. His conviction for the thing is what got him through. That voice though sounds like something from a horror movie. So what happens next? And who was the chick judge? She was on Rebel Billionaire? |

I don't get the "firefighter is the winner" sentiment. I think a lot of his presentation was pulling heartstrings. There is no proof that his invention works. If one thinks logically instead of emotionally then this might not be such a clear winner.

I always been fond of that demographic myself....
So are the next phases of the competition development of the inventions? You're right on the possibility of it not working, which is why bearded judge issued a no. I wish they'd given more air to crazy Euro guy with the saltwater engine. I'd have loved to see him go down in flames. |

Quote: i theory, winners of the first level are given $50,000 to improve/develop the idea. and then its off to the next level of judging. (in fact, the judges seem to appreciate more developed products. not great products, just developed products.) i'd prefer this show if folks just showed up with a drawing on paper. and the show would fund the idea. (like that firefighter mutherfucker. give me $50,000 and i could make that idea work.) the ideas of cash starved inventors with a thought is powerful. but this show misses that entirely... |

Sara may have gotten robbed on Branson's show, but trust me, she's doing more than fine. She invented Spanx for goodness sakes. Almost every woman I know swears by those things.

I just googled her and it all came flooding back. The robbed runner-up who I lurved deeply back then; I wondered why she looked familiar.
Really on Spanx? I've never seen them in the wild. The more I think about the firefighter's idea, the more tenuous it seems -- how does he pressurized the water inside that teensey box? How to minimize the potential for a misfire and ruined presents? Etc. |

Quote: amen, i totally agree! but as someone else noted, she is apparently doingquite alright - i think they said her company grossed $150 million last year or summat?! the judging panel is generally better this year IMO... aside from their obvious lapse in judgment over therapy buddy  yes, the firefighter has won, but i'll watch the next couple of "crazies" rounds anyway! |

Quote: simple p'ha. you don't use water. you use that annoying pressurized yellow powder that most fire extinguishers shoot off to douse a flame. ever use one of them inside a home? nasty. but it works. give me $50,000. i will make this work. arrrggg... dude has an idea. what they would be funding is the idea. think about it. christmas tree fires are real. a problem. dude has an idea. he thinks water. maybe the answer is not water, but it does not discount the idea. the fucker has like 10 kids. that can't be cheap to support. give the fucker some money and let's see where he can go with this. or we can go with the chick with the bib for fucks that eat in their car (51%). or maybe that little fuck with the wipes that attach to a diaper... my god... |
