The feeding frenzy continues on Shark Tank, as a new wave of entrepreneurs pitch their wares to the discerning, often dismissive, panel of investors. This week’s lineup offers a characteristically eclectic mix, ranging from the practical to the purely playful. One hopeful arrives with a three-in-one portable charger, hoping to solve our collective battery anxiety. Another pitches a build-it-yourself electric vehicle kit, likely aiming to tap into the growing EV market.
For those with a sweeter tooth, a take-home sweet potato pie business looks to tempt the Sharks with its culinary delights. But perhaps the most entertaining pitch of the night will come from the entrepreneur presenting indoor bumper cars. One can only imagine the Sharks’ reactions as they contemplate the logistics, and potential liability, of unleashing tiny, electric-powered vehicles upon an unsuspecting public.
As always, the true appeal of Shark Tank lies in the unpredictable interactions between the entrepreneurs and the Sharks. Will any of these pitches manage to secure a life-changing investment? Or will they be sent packing, their dreams dashed against the rocks of capitalist reality? Tune in to witness the drama unfold.
Shark Tank airs Friday, February 7 at 8:00 PM on ABC.
