Watch Shark Tank online
Sony Pictures TV and executive producer Mark Burnett bring another business-themed reality show in which contestants pitch business ideas to major investors, aka "sharks." The show is based on the Japanese reality show "Dragon's Den."
A former military wife from Yellow Springs, Ohio with a business refurbishing old appliances; an entrepreneur from Chicago with a line of mint holders turned into keychains; a team from Hinsdale, Illinois with lighted decals; and a single mom from Fisher, Indiana with aromatic lip gloss.
A colorful shoe fashion show, a liquid llama fertilizer, message balls, a bendable geometry toy and a hands-free umbrella are considered by the sharks. Also: an update on a life-belt inventor who passed on an offer from the shark tank
A pair of lobbyists from Washington, D.C., seek funding for a barbecue-sauce venture; a feisty Internet entrepreneur from Chicago gives the uncompromising Sharks a taste of their own medicine.
The Sharks hear ideas from a mom who writes children's books; a woman promoting a kitchen gadget; and a father-son team hawking a musical product.
First into the Shark Tank is an entrepreneur who creates customized Bobbie Heads. He wants the Sharks to invest in an extension of his existing business, but the Sharks won't bite unless he gives up a percentage of his existing, lucrative business. Next into the Shark Tank is a urologist who has created a pretty bizarre device that looks like a golf club and will allow men to urinate right on the golf course if need be. Next, the Sharks are introduced to a business that will change the world of college sports, and they offer four times the amount asked!
There are five Sharks, each with their own particular areas of interest and skills.
Celebrity fashion accessories are pitched by a contestant, and Kevin O'Leary goes to great lengths to get the last word on a deal.
First into the Shark Tank is a housewife from Charleston, South Carolina who is getting a second chance to meet with the Sharks after getting devastating news right before she was supposed to appear. All of the male Sharks fall in love with her, but Barbara thinks that they are acting more like teenage boys than cunning entrepreneurs. Next into the Shark Tank is a college student from Bloomington, Indiana who creates a product made out of soy right in his mother's kitchen. Kevin O'Leary wants to make a deal, but the young entrepreneur may be his own worst enemy.
