Season 16 of 'Shark Tank' premieres on Friday, Oct. 18 at 8:00pm.
A reality show where entrepreneurs take their ideas to wealthy businesspeople in hopes of an investment.
Adapted from Dragon's Den, which originated in Japan, the series features a panel of successful tycoons - known as the Sharks - who are approached by budding entrepreneurs looking for investors to expand their company or grow their product line.
The Sharks must decide if they are willing to offer up their own personal capital in exchange for a percentage of the contestant's company. During negotiations, the sharks are free to partner up or bid against each other if they so desire. If all the sharks decline, the contestant walks away with nothing.

The new live audience format really sucks. Sharks talking over each other, too many pauses for audience interaction....yelling over the audience clapping. Very annoying. Will be moving on if this format remains.

Had to stop watching because of Robert. This guy. Remember the little kids in school that tried to fit in and be cool and just weren't? Him to a T. I know he is not on every episode, but that guy is a loser.

I'd like to see Trump on the panel too. I haven't watched an episode for years. It's a great place for some media cravers to get out of politics, or otherwise keep out of trouble. Cuban has been remarkably mum on Biden's Excellent Adventures after endorsing him. Cuban's silence on China and NBA is typically of his personal loyalties. Trump, at least, doesn't trash the national anthem.

I have been an entrepreneur all my life. I started, bootstrapped and sold several companies over the years. I made money on some and I lost money on some. Last year I started One Year Auction website. I never looked for angel investors or VCs but I want to give it a try now. I applied to be on ABC’s Shark Tank TV show. You can vote for my One Year Auction startup on http://sharktankzone.com and hopefully I will make it into Shark Tank season 4. Wish me luck!
