Kevin Harrington, an industry veteran and founder of OmniReliant Holdings, is making his primetime debut this summer as part of a new Mark Burnett reality show called Shark Tank.
According to ABC, the show "gives budding entrepreneurs the chance to make their dreams come true and become successful — and possibly wealthy — business people. But the entrepreneurs must first try to convince five tough, multi-millionaire tycoons to part with their own hard-earned cash and give them the funding they need to jumpstart their ideas."
You can watch the promo for the show below. I did, and I think it looks great. Sort of a cross between American Inventor and The Apprentice with Kevin and his co-sharks getting to switch off playing the part of The Donald.
(DRTV Reality Show Fun Fact: Kevin's brother, Tim, appears in Episode Two of Pitchmen as OmniReliant is the marketer/financier behind that episode's hit product, Dual Saw.)
