He's on the verge of being overexposed, with Family Feud, Celebrity Family Feud, Little Big Shots, etc.
Steve Harvey will be on another ABC series where he is the "funder of dreams" for entrepreneurs.
Harvey and Mark Burnett will serve as executive producers for the yet-untitled show, that will debut later this year.

On the verge indeed.
Why on earth is ABC trying to eat its own lunch?
-
Just from the blurb Brian provided, it sounds like Shark Tank, minus the teeth. I could see it being a companion series since Burnett produces both, as long as it doesn't try too hard to be Shark Tank Lite.

I hope they leave in the moment where the owner of Grandmother's Recipe Oatmeal Cookies thinks that she'll be receiving the $250,000, only to have Steve come back onstage and announce that the real winner is Galoshes for Dogs.

STEVE: And what is the "Junk Bunk"?
CONTESTANT: It's a penis pump.

But the teeth are the point. There's a reason that I have adopted "And for that reason, I'm out" from Kevin and Robert.
Pondering the conclusion of American Idol I think that Simon Cowell deserves credit for standing athwart the participation trophy culture and saying "Not in my house."

I think we're in agreement here. I watch Shark Tank for precisely that: the teeth, and to pick up a few entrepreneurial tactics. It seems to be the one reality show that seems authentic, even if the banter may be played up a bit.
I can't see Steve carrying the kind of ruthlessness I've come to expect and love (?) from Daymond, Marc, Mr. Wonderful, etc., but maybe that's what they're going for.
