Shark Tank Season 6 Thread

Shark Tank is one of my favorite tv shows. For those that don't already know, the show features six business people including billionaire Mark Cuban, Damon John of FUBU and four others getting pitched business investment propositions by hopeful American entrepreneurs. Season six premiered on ABC with a double episode this Friday September 26th at 8 PM. It will settle into its regular time slot at 9 PM ET on Friday nights.



These first two back to back episodes featured eight pitches in total including some that were total non-starters to a few that got interest from the investors. There was also a lot of the usual sappiness with a fair bit of talking about some of the entrepreneurs' children and personal dramas to provide a back story for these business people looking to start or expand their businesses.



In the first episode I thought that the guys with the mobile wedding business who were looking to franchise their idea were foolish for selling their original Las Vegas based business which would have provided the model for potential franchisees. The nail shop for guys was also a horrible idea that got rejected.



In the second episode I was quite surprised that the Roominate building toy for children was so successful coming into the tank, but the investment itself was not so surprising. The floating mug idea I didn't think had a chance but even they got an investment.



It's also nice to see more update segments on investments from previous seasons.
