Hi all, I'm desperately looking for seasons 2, 3 and 4 if Shark Tank Australia. Can anyone help me? Here's a link on thetvdb.com, https://thetvdb.com/series/shark-tank-au#seasons I have also included an imdb link. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4406222/episodes/?ref_=tt_ov_epl Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you friends!

Telling people not to negotiate makes me turn the channel.

• “We’re a lifestyle brand”

• Mark starts clapping and pandering

• Robert overstims and starts screaming

• “tell us about you!”

• family tragedy mentioned

• Lori’s ridiculous laugh at the most minute thing

• “I love you, but… (I’m out)”

• bragging about being a stay at home mom

• kid pitches

🙄

For various reasons I’ve been in an addictive spiral of watching tons of shark tank. I also grew up watching Canadian dragons den and shark tank so I’m very familiar with it. I hate everything to do with business, commerce, capitalism, but I can’t lie, it’s a great show. So I’ve compiled my personal thoughts on each shark and ranked the sharks from best to worst here:

Very Best: Kevin O’Leary: He is the ONLY shark who can actually take a joke or a jab without getting butthurt, both from other sharks and contestants. He clearly enjoys the competitiveness with other sharks, and he is the ONLY ONE who always allows the contestants to “shop around” for other offers and doesn’t get mad about it. Least fragile ego and most entertainment value by far. He has strong opinions about a very wide range of things, which is fun to see. I like his catchphrases and creatively structured deals. I hate many other things about him that aren’t relevant to the show, but I have to say I would never watch it if it wasn’t for him.

2 Lori: if it was a cold day in hell and I became an entrepreneur, I would most want to work with her. I like her confidence which most of the time (not always) doesn’t come off too arrogant. Also, she is usually the least mean and I appreciate when she sticks up for people. But, I don’t like that she goes out on a whim if someone hesitates and tries to do the take it or leave it thing.

3 Barbara: she can take a joke better than the other sharks (aside from kevin), but she always says she likes mark because he’s a billionaire which I think it’s stupid. Mostly, I don’t find she provides much entertainment value. Honestly the only entertaining thing she does is banter with Kevin. But, she seems like she really puts energy into the entrepreneurs that she backs.

4 Robert: He seems to have the most fun on the show, and seems like a somewhat reasonable guy. But, I can’t stand when he talks about his dad being an immigrant factory worker when he is using it as a means to say that no one has an excuse not to work hard and become successful. Like yes good for you but that’s legitimately not the case for everyone. Also he has a fragile ego and rarely negotiates.

5 Daymond: it was actually hard to choose my least favourite because I despise him and mark so badly. He has the most fragile ego, barely negotiates, essentially never makes offers, is arrogant as fuck, and is needlessly mean to contestants. I’ll never forgive him for (I forget the company) but he was making a whole speech about how everyone needs a chance and LL gave him one and he became a millionaire because of it… and then proceeded to decide to go out. Like you suck lol.

WORST: MARK CUBAN: I can’t even list all the reasons I despise this man that are relevant to the show but here goes:

1. Honestly his celebrity status ruins the show sometimes because people come in looking only for an offer from mark
2. He started and consistently continues the awful “say yes right now or I’m out”, and it is BULLYING
3. I genuinely prefer Kevin’s “money money money” attitude than Mark’s self righteous do gooder shit when we know he’s all about the exact same thing, and he proves it by making extremely greedy offers.
4. He’s by far the most arrogant shark (followed closely by Daymond)

Guest sharks speed round

Charles Barkley - funny af

Emma Grede - just crazy pretty

Ring guy - cool that he was a contestant

Spanx lady - seems like a really good business person

Bethany Frankel - she’s pretty cool

Gwyneth Paltrow - why is she here?

23 & me lady: I hate 23&me

Chris sacca - kind of a weird asshole + stupid outfits

Daniel kind bar - hate him for non-show reasons but I’m still putting him at the bottom

Every time I see parents and their kids come in where the parents say “it’s their product, they’re in charge!” it makes me so sad. I think it’s cool that parents are fostering a sense of agency in their kids, but at what point does it become straight up Parentification?? I have the same feeling towards child acting. Not kid should EVER be in charge of the household income. Nope.

Fully disclosure, im a family therapist and have studied way too much about family dynamics. What are your thoughts?

Am I the only the one who understands both sides? Other Dragons communicated the point poorly.

The main goal is that eventually every entrepreneur's business has enough profit or series funding that they can afford to quit their regular 9-5. We're talking about the long-term strategy.

In the very beginning stage of the business, you want to take a very low risk by working on the new business during the weekends and nighttime. It makes sense to keep the 9-5 in the short-term.

When business picks up where gain tons of traction via profit or series A (or significant seed). The opportunity cost of keeping that 9-5 would be detrimental. For example, a 9-5 job makes you 110k/yr but business makes you 200k in profit. You should be prioritizing the business at that point.

Obviously the vast majority of business fail. If you're pitching to investors, you are already assuming your business will succeed (regardless of actual outcome in reality). You don't wanna out loud say, "hey I'm keeping my 9-5 just in case I fail" even if its true.

It just sounds like Balu Organics just wasn't ready to be on the show. Maybe the business will take off eventually, but he had not yet reached that stage.

If you just want to be a small business forever, that's fine and dandy. But for a show like Dragon's Den or Shark Tank, they are looking for a exponential multiplier business.

Wow! This new episode sucked!

Not only were half of the pitched products garbage, but they also added in a stupid Google ad. I just wanted to watch the guys talk about how TikPik is doing well, not a google ad 🙄 Skip!

An ad in the show after coming back from an ad break?! I hope there aren’t more of these stupid sponsored segments.

It's so cool to know he invested in Uber. Don't you dare forget it! Such a great thing to invest in Uber.

I don’t mean it as a slight on anyone, but does it seem like they are hard on some but then toss softballs to others? The show is losing me with this, I doesn’t feel business focused

I’m watching through season 16 on Hulu and just watched episode 4 with the 120 brand of coats.

Kevin has always had the reputation of being the “bully” of the show, but making fun of someone for having to work a job while also working on their business was an extremely low blow.

I know she eventually cried when mentioning her mom, but it was obvious that there was emotion building up before that after Kevin’s extremely insensitive comments. It was obvious that she felt attacked and was uncomfortable.

Props to Lori for going up to reassure her that she wasn’t doing anything wrong and to not listen to Kevin.

Sorry if this has already been posted... but does it drive anyone else crazy that Mark always lists one reason to go out, but always says "for THOSE reasonS I'm out"? It drives me insane.

...to come up and try a product during a pitch, and declined?

I have a migraine all day so my cognitive skills are fuzzy. I need you guys to confirm I actually sat through an episode of Shark Tank tonight that was not trying to sell me any food products. It's been a long day so I worry I may be losing it.

Kevin tonight was wearing two watches both with orange bands. Is this some new fashion flex? One wasnt even a smart watch both just traditional watches, one maybe a Brietling but still why?

like when watching the international versions it feels like the same show with a different cast.this feels like a different show with the same premise .Srta like when visiting Canada as an American if that makes sense.

I mean has Mark ever made someone an offer but they chose another shark without mark going out. Dont think ive seen that yet
