This disconnect seems another example of our two Americas: coastal elites forensically recapping and analyzing esoteric ratings losers (most recently “Twin Peaks”) while the heartland’s tastes go ignored. So why doesn’t it garner as much media coverage as, say, “The Bachelor,” which equals and sometimes lags behind “Shark Tank” in viewers? It’s hard to think of a more resonant-yet-aspirational reality show.
Most compelling: “Shark Tank” is the American Dream in your living room week after week, a potent counterweight to our ongoing economic trauma. Turns out about 10 million people do, eager to learn about margins, franchising, licensing, intellectual property and utility patents, amortization and customer acquisition, all of which somehow make edge-of-your-seat viewing. “Nobody wants to listen to five businessmen and women talk! Who wants to watch that?” “I thought it was going to be a failure,” Daymond John told CNBC earlier this year.
The success of “Shark Tank” has surprised even some sharks. Last August, the show retained its audience against NFL pre-season games.
It’s won four Emmys for Outstanding Structured Reality Program. Tonight marks the 2-hour season premiere of one of television’s top-rated, most critically acclaimed shows - one that curiously gets little media attention.įor nine seasons, “Shark Tank” - a competitive reality program in which inventors pitch to a panel of multi-millionaires (and one billionaire) - has been a consistent ratings winner despite ABC airing it in a Friday night graveyard slot.
