It kind of irritated me that he even got on the show! With so many interesting people and inventions waiting to be on the show they let him have air time? Geez! If the argument is that they want to have a few to eat alive I disagree with the tactic, there are still enough negatives about the other pitches to give them fodder.

If I had a camera on my laptop I'd use his product if it was a dollar, I wouldn't want to use gummy things on the computer. But ten dollars? You've got to be kidding. I do wonder how many people were surprised that someone can tap into your webcam and watch you. I heard about this a long time ago and were I to have one it would be a plug in.... Maybe that is part or why it got on the show?

They keep showing reruns I almost didn't watch but was flipping through the guide and discovered it was new.

Remember the woman with the zip up beanbag chair you can stuff toys and such into? I saw an ad for it on tv a few days ago. I wish I had one, put all the winter stuff in there and I could actually find it when I needed it.

She may have a whole closet full of them.

You could be right; I would love to know how they select the inventors. I know many people just use a piece of black electrical tape over their webcam and it looks so awful. I agree $1 sounds about right.

I didn't see the beanbag chair; that sounds awesome!

You'll notice that they film many shows at once. One season, Daymon had the same purple suit with suspenders and no coat for like every episode.

In fact, here it is!

I didnt get that one either and I also didnt get why no one mentioned electrical tape. My wife and daughter have a small strip over the camera and on a black laptop you dont even notice it. Instead all they talked about was Post-Its

Yea, you're right. Some shows have the talent change clothes but I guess this one doesn't. Oh well.

And Mark Cuban rarely invests; he is an interesting personality on his own but I don't care for him on the show. There I said it.

I like him because he often plays the role of entrepreneur's advocate. He feels obligated to let people know when they are getting a bad deal, and he sometimes gives people a great deal just to take them away from the others who are trying to screw them over. He seems like a good guy.

I loved the episode when one guy randomly started called him "Cubes" as a nickname. My wife and I have been calling him that ever since.

IMO the lame duck of the group is Daymond. Not only does he invest even less frequently than Mark, but he has the personality of a wet dishrag compared to the rest of the crew.
