When it comes to big and unique ideas, Shark Tank is a perfect place to be for any business owner. But once in a while, an outcome comes along that’s less about profit and more about purpose. That’s exactly what happened when Chris Gray stepped into the tank with Scholly, a mobile app designed to make the scholarship search process more accessible and centralized.

However, what made headlines was not just the app, but Lori Greiner’s move to break the show’s usual format by making a $40,000 deal on the spot without asking a single question. Let’s dive deeper!

To date, Jeff Probst (Survivor), Jane Lynch (Hollywood Game Night), and RuPaul Charles (RuPaul's Drag Race) are the only people to win the Best Reality Host Emmy at least twice in a row. But a fourth contender could soon be joining their esteemed list.

Alan Cumming (The Traitors) is the clear frontrunner in Gold Derby's predictions to claim his second consecutive host trophy. He also won as a producer last year when The Traitors prevailed for Best Competition Program. Cumming plays a heightened version of himself on Peacock's reality TV show, someone who oozes camp and gets excited every time a murder takes place inside his luxurious Scottish castle. Could The Traitors exist in a world without Cumming? Yes. But it wouldn't be nearly as fun. In addition to his two Emmys, the performer is also a double Tony winner for Cabaret and A Strange Loop.

Next in line is RuPaul,...

Before social media debates and legacy wars, there were Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant, two of the most iconic players to ever share a court. Shaq once called himself Superman. But even Superman knew when another hero was rising beside him.

A resurfaced clip from their early 2000s championship run is making the rounds online, and it’s hitting fans right in the feels.

Kevin O’Leary, aka Mr. Wonderful, best known for his no-nonsense attitude on Shark Tank, is once again stirring the pot. But this time, he’s doing so by throwing his support behind Donald Trump. That’s right – in an interview, he detailed that the current President of the United States knows how to drive results and get things done.

Well, many might have different opinions on this, but the Shark Tank judge was pretty confident in his assessment. Let’s dive deeper to find out what he said about Trump and why he thinks Trump always pushes the edge.

Mark Cuban was once the proud majority owner of the Dallas Mavericks and now owns a 27% stake in the basketball team. However, when it comes to basketball skills, it appears that he hasn’t been to that many practice sessions with the Mavericks. When a basketball-based product was pitched on Shark Tank Season 12, Cuban’s shooting skills were put on display.

Another shark on the panel, Barbara Corcoran, was interested in the product. However, she also admitted that Cuban wasn’t that great at basketball. The company, Grind, walked away with a good deal that saw Corcoran and Cuban team up.

Grind was an idea pitched by former basketball player Thomas Fields, whose injury stopped him from pursuing an NBA career. He came up with the idea of a portable and collapsible shooting and rebounding machine that helps up-and-coming players with their practice.

When this wacky $250K pitch hit the Shark Tank stage, even Robert Herjavec couldn’t help but call it “full of Bs.” And well, it kind of was, on the surface. The idea sounded more like a gag gift than a legit business plan. But plot twist: that same product’s now raking in a crazy $13.9M a year.

It’s the classic “don’t judge a pitch by its punchline” story. Turns out, behind all the laughs was a money-making machine no one saw coming.

Back in Shark Tank Season 9, Peter Baldwin and Chris Mason strutted in with gym shorts, a watermelon, and enough confidence to flood the tank. They asked for $250,000 for 1.5% of their company, Birddogs, a bold, comfort-first line of men’s gym shorts with built-in liners.

You’ve poured your blood, sweat, and three maxed-out credit cards into your startup. You walk onto the Shark Tank stage, your voice a bit shaky but your pitch airtight. Mark Cuban is nodding. Lori’s eyebrows are doing that interested arch thing.

And then, like a Bond villain swirling a glass of Merlot, Kevin O’Leary opens his mouth: “I’ll give you the money… for 5% equity and a $3 royalty per unit until I make back $1.5 million.” Cue the sad trombone.

Kevin “Mr. Wonderful” O’Leary is Shark Tank’s ultimate finance guy, part Shark, part payday loan dispenser. His offers are always loaded with royalties, clawbacks, contingency clauses, and more strings than a marionette. And while his vocabulary is impressive, his closing rate sometimes screams, “You get nothing, and he keeps everything.” And nobody calls him out more than Mark Cuban.

Some deals on Shark Tank are life-changing — others? Straight-up highway robbery. When Kevin O’Leary and Barbara Corcoran threw down a brutal 50% stake offer, this company said, hard pass, and walked. Best decision ever. Fast-forward, and they’re laughing all the way to the bank with $200 million in revenue last year.

No sharks needed. Sometimes, the real power move isn’t taking the bait — it’s swimming away.

Joel Clark and Cameron Smith walked into Shark Tank looking for a fair deal. They walked out with nothing, but ended up with a $200 million brand.

Back in Season 5, the founders of Kodiak Cakes pitched their high-protein, whole-grain flapjack and waffle mix, asking for $500,000 for 10% equity. The Sharks weren’t biting. Kevin O’Leary threw out a “take...

The excitement builds as “Shark Tank” gears up for its Season 16 Episode 16, airing on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 8:00 Pm on ABC. This episode promises a fresh lineup of innovative products that could capture the interest of the Sharks. Entrepreneurs from various backgrounds will step into the tank, hoping to secure investment and mentorship from the seasoned investors.

One of the standout pitches features a new twist on frozen food. This product aims to revolutionize the way people think about quick meals, offering delicious options that are both convenient and nutritious. Viewers can expect to see how the Sharks react to this culinary innovation and whether it meets their high standards.

Another intriguing product is a state-of-the-art air purifier designed to work while people sleep. This gadget is aimed at improving indoor air quality without disturbing rest. The Sharks will likely have plenty of questions about its effectiveness and market potential.

Shark Tank has seen a slew of unique products that cater to all walks of life, but there was one product that came into the Shark Tank with something very sensitive and heartfelt to offer. Parting Stones, a company that manufactured stones from the ashes of those who had departed, came in asking for $400,000.

While the Sharks were impressed by the idea, given how lucrative it can be, there were a few hiccups in the offer that Justin Crowe made. One, of course, was the fact that the company was still years away from breaking even, which caused the Sharks to pitch a slew of counter offers if Crowe wanted his $400,000.

Anything can happen on a television show when money and Sharks are involved. Due to the many unpredictable variables in Shark Tank, the production of the series can famously take some interesting directions. Although the series maintains a focus on business, there are many emotions involved when a product is being shown to the judges.

On top of the product having everything put on the line, the Sharks also have to make some very careful decisions since high figures of money are involved. However, stakes and stress aren’t the only emotions involved.

Sometimes, egos can take over, and good deals end up slipping through the grasp of contestants and judges.

Shark Tank has borne witness to many historical deals throughout the years. Just as the show has seen the dreams of many entrepreneurs shattering on stage. In any case, it is not often that entrepreneurs return to the show after things falling apart before.

Although that, too, fell apart, the incident will stay with the judges and the audience forever due to the way things unfolded the second time around.
