Shark Tank



Shark Tank is an American reality television series which premiered on ABC on August 9, 2009. It features business pitches from aspiring entrepreneurs to a panel of potential investors. It is part of the Dragon's Den series of reality shows, itself based on the original Japanese Money Tigers.
The show features a panel of potential investors, called "sharks", that considers offers from aspiring entrepreneurs seeking investments for their business or product. The entrepreneur can make a deal on the show if a panel member is interested. However, if all of the panel members opt out, the entrepreneur leaves empty-handed. The show is said to portray "the drama of pitch meetings and the interaction between the entrepreneurs and tycoons" A one-hour pitch by a contestant is edited down to "a dramatic 10-minute segment". The show is said to personalize "the desperation and pain experienced by victims of a broken-down economy".

If you know me then you know I am not a reality Tv fan. But my boyfriend is. And he has sucked me into watching a few. This is one of those that I can't help but find entertaining. I'm amazed at what people try to get money for. And the reaction of the sharks never fails to amuse. It's not must see Tv but if you have nothing to do, this will entertain you.

Shark Tank - 5x19



A mechanical engineer from San Francisco hopes to catch a deal with his patented bike lighting LED system that attaches to the wheel rim for safety and utility but incurs the wrath of Mark Cuban along the way. Parents from Los Angeles tout their baby wear with reinforced knees and built-in squeakers to help caregivers keep track of a crawling baby on the move. The Sharks' reaction brings the mom to tears. An entrepreneur from La Grange, IL thinks his shoe buffing pad that attaches to a household power drill could revolutionize shoe shining, and a Rochester, NY inventor wants the Sharks to invest in his "modular laces" which enable kids and adults to customize their sneaker looks with different styles and colors. Who among these do the Sharks agree is the "real deal?" We follow up on Kazam, a pedal-less training bike by a Virginia Beach entrepreneur in which Mark Cuban invested last season

I watched most of the first season and then fell behind. And have never gotten around to catching up. But I really enjoyed it as I was watching it.

This is such a throwback to the old WB shows. If you were a fan of Gilmore Girls, Everwood, Life Interrupted and so on, then you gotta catch this one too. Plus all the romantic entanglements is enough to set my little shipper heart a fluttering (my fellow vidders will know what that means lol).

Sanctuary


Sanctuary is a Canadian science fiction-fantasy television series, created by Damian Kindler. The show is an expansion of an eight-webisode series that was released at no cost through the Internet in early 2007. Seeing the success of the web series, Syfy decided to pick up the series for a more traditional television-based 13-episode season. The series premiered on October 3, 2008, in both Canada and the United States, and on October 6, in the United Kingdom. On May 21, 2012, Syfy announced that Sanctuary will not be returning for a fifth season and that the show has been cancelled.
The series is set in the fictional city of Old City and follows 157-year-old scientist, Helen Magnus, and her team: daughter Ashley, protege Will Zimmerman, Henry Foss, and an aptly named "Bigfoot". The Sanctuary team assumes the mission of tracking "Abnormals", (specially gifted humans and creatures) and bringing them to the Sanctuary for the dual purpose of protecting the public as well as the Abnormals themselves.

This is a show that I have collected based solely on the description and trailers. I know I will enjoy it but I've yet to sit through an episode. So you'll have to judge for yourselves.

This should come off as so low brow. But instead it's just hilarious. How can you not laugh at a senile Chloris Leachman? And I think we can relate to these people better than most you see on tv. Or maybe that's just me...which would be sad.

Haven


Haven is an American supernatural drama television series based on the Stephen King novel The Colorado Kid. The one-hour drama premiered on July 9, 2010, on Syfy. The series will be the first property to be produced for Syfy Pay channels around the globe, excluding Canada and Scandinavia

The first half of Haven's super-sized fifth season (for some reason Syfy is billing these 26 episodes as one long season) premieres this fall. The second half will air next fall. 
When FBI Special Agent Audrey Parker (Emily Rose) arrives in the small town of Haven, Maine, on a routine case, she soon finds herself increasingly involved in the return of "The Troubles", a plague of supernatural afflictions that have occurred in the town at least twice before. With an openness to the possibility of the paranormal, she also finds a more personal link in Haven that may lead her to the mother she has never known.
Parker begins to realize that her arrival in Haven may have been planned and that her name and even her memories may not be her own. As the series progresses, she learns more about the mysteries of both Haven and her true identity.

    Starring:

This has slowly become one of my favorites. Love each and every character (But Duke is my favorite). Each season takes the show to a new level with intricate plots and character interplay. It's a must see for any lover of the fantasy genre. But it will also appeal to anyone who likes a good cop/mystery drama.
