A BAKED PIE THE SIZE OF A COOKIE, A GIANT POCKET-SIZED WET WIPE, AND SHOES THAT GO FROM HIGH HEELS TO FLATS IN SECONDS ARE AMONG THE INVENTIONS ON 'STEVE HARVEY'S FUNDERDOME'

"Episode 109" - The seed-funding competition reality series "Steve Harvey's FUNDERDOME," featuring two aspiring inventors going head-to-head to win over a live studio audience to fund their ideas, products or companies, airs SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 17 (9:00-10:00 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network. The audience will represent the customer, and since the customer is always right, they will be voting to determine the winner. This week's inventions and the aspiring inventors that will go head-to-head are:

· Grilled Cheesus - a Panini press that grills the face of Jesus Christ into a sandwich. Inventor: Meg from Venice, California

· Flaky Bakes - a unique baked treat that's a pie the size of a cookie. Inventor: Lateshia from Farmington Hills, Michigan

· Monster Towel - a 10' x 10' microfiber towel. Inventor: Janice from Chula Vista, California

· Epic Wipes - a giant, individually packaged wet wipe that fits in your pocket. Inventors: Aeneas and James from Sacramento, California

· Kritter Kondo - an indoor/outdoor pet enclosure. Inventor: Lisa from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

· Switcheels - shoes that allow women to easily go from high heels to mid heels to flats in seconds. Inventor: Briana from Clair Shores, Michigan

Before revealing the results of the crowd's majority vote, host Steve Harvey, the highly popular stand-up comedian, actor, author and Emmy Award-winning game show host, will present the inventors with a major dilemma. One of the inventors is allowed to cash out and walk away for a lesser amount. If an inventor cashes out, they forgo the opportunity to win the whole cash prize for that round - a good move if they lost the crowd vote, but a bad move if they would have won it.

"Steve Harvey's FUNDERDOME" is produced by MGM Television and internationally distributed by MGM. The executive producers are Mark Burnett, Leslie Garvin and Barry Poznick.
