Top Ten Infomercials that Failed

Crutnacker
The following infomercials had a very hard time making back the creator's investment.

10. Girls Gone Mild -- College girls get mildly drunk on near beer and take off their winter coats for the camera.
9. Kevin Trudeau's "From the Cell Block to Selling Schlock" -- A convicted felon shows you how to skirt the law while making dubious health claims.
8. David Oreck's Flatulence Detector
7. Body By Oprah -- Ab Lumper
6. Matthew Lesko's Fashion Design
5. Mighty Silly Putty -- This magic putty not only plugs leaks and hold objects together, it lifts comics right off the page.
4. JFK's Magic Bullet Blender
3. Flowbee Back Hair Cutting System, endorsed by Ed Asner.
2. Proactiv Bacne System
1. The Best of Backyard Extreme Curling

    And to think: they were oh, so close. Excellent angle. If you ever decide to add one, I think the "Energizer Dummy" by Richard Simmons comes in at number 11.
