Cinema Science

Survivor creator Mark Burnett is adapting Dragons' Den, a Japanese show in which wannabe entrepreneurs try to convince moguls to invest in their ideas. The U.S. version will be called The Shark Tank, and, according to Burnett, will play like the early episodes of American Idol, with contestants presenting their ideas to a board of established business titans. This sounds like a good and interesting idea but so did that show American Inventor, and I never watched more than five minutes of that show before I became bored.
