Are you kidding me? The best part of the show is when they get ripped to shreds!
A couple weeks ago on Shark Tank some guy came with a hinge for a guitar, and he wanted $500,000 for 5% of his company. They all laughed at him, and he was dead serious the entire time. Eventually one guy said he would go in for 51%, and then someone else said he'd join as well (the infomercial guy). He essentially had the backing of two of them with the $500,000 and he had the marketing. And the guy said "no, that isn't good enough". One of the sharks are ripping into him for a good 2 minutes talking about his greed, etc. What a laugh!
Then when he leaves he says "he is going to make millions, etc". Dragon's Den is just as good.
