A TV Show To Seek Out American Inventors

ABC is going to put up a reality type of TV Show like the hugely popular "the Amecican Idol". This show is to be called American Inventor.

American Inventor follows the American Idol formula. The premiere episode, and next week's as well, focuses on the highs and lows of the audition process: seven cities, hundreds of applicants, four judges, two minutes to pitch, and three "yes" votes to move on to the next round. Twelve final contestants will receive $50,000 each to develop their inventions, and the audience will get to cast votes for the final winner, who'll receive a $1 million prize.

Simon Cowell, the sharp tongued 'American Idol' judge is the producer of 'American Inventor', will be operating behind the camera and will not sit as a judge. But you can bet, there will be a judge who'll perhaps be equal to Simon in dishing out cutting remarks on to the folks; just normal people who will come up innovative and even weird ideas to pull off an invention.
