I would love to see a real show too, but reality TV and founding a company are anathema to each other. Cheever put it best in his joke e-mail. How are you supposed to be heads down, focusing on solving the right problems when TV cameras are all around? It's not surprising that no one credible or serious actually signed up for this for fear of career suicide.
I don't think TC's trying to put down anyone either. The irony is that Lacy wanted to do her own reality TV show startup competition that ended in Las Vegas, but Randi beat her to the punch her own mainstream TV deal. So Sarah's just trying to position herself as the "serious" authority in Silicon Valley for later deals down the road even though she is very much part of the same overall trend toward superficiality and showmanship.
