Remember that it is a tv show - the pitch and presentation is MUCH longer than what we see on tv. Also, I still wonder how many of the deals actually ever close.
You would think that. But I saw a posting from someone on Reddit (and I think maybe HN) that was on Shark Tank and they said that it's pretty much exactly what you see.
But you're right, even if they get a deal on the show, it doesn't necessarily mean it will go through.
