ABC's "American Inventor," an exciting series from Simon Cowell and the producers of "American Idol," is about the biggest search ever for America's best new invention.
"American Inventor," the embodiment of the ultimate American dream, will uncover the hottest new product and make one struggling inventor's dream come true. With one million dollars at stake, "American Inventor" will celebrate the best in homespun American ingenuity.
"American Inventor" opens with coverage of open casting calls
National casting calls for "American Inventor" were held in seven major cities across the country. In addition to the cities already mentioned, producers visited Denver, Chicago, Washington DC and Atlanta, all of which will be featured in upcoming episodes. Thousands of inventors, tinkerers and entrepreneurs of all ages applied.
"American Inventor" is the biggest search for the next great invention with wide consumer appeal… Envision the Cabbage Patch Kids, George Foreman Grill, Post-It or Rubik's Cube. A panel of expert judges will narrow down the initial entries to a group of finalists, who will each be given $50,000 to develop their product, refine it and take it to the next level. This is a show that's going to make the American dream come true for one person—taking his/her idea, vision and creativity and helping to turn it into a mass produced product that will be in every American home—but in the end it will be up to America to call in and vote on which invention is worthy of the one million dollar prize.
"American Inventor's" panel of expert judges include Doug Hall, an inventor, bestselling author and radio host, and also the founder and CEO of Eureka! Ranch, an inventing, training and research firm; Ed Evangelista, an executive creative director at the New York headquarters of JWT; Mary Lou Quinlan, founder and CEO of Just Ask a Woman, one of the premiere women's marketing companies in the U.S.; and Peter Jones, one of the UK's brightest young entrepreneurs and venture capitalists.
