Shark Tank

Season Three promises to make TV history with the Sharks offering over $10 million in investment deals to bankroll a creative array of innovative entrepreneurs. Adding to the excitement, billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban and self-made businessman/funnyman Jeff Foxworthy will jump into the Tank at various times throughout the run.

The Tank is emotionally charged from the get-go. In the season premiere, one Shark is willing to part with $4 million dollars of his own money. That's the largest amount in the show's history! But will the deal get done? There's also an update on last season's Granola Gourmet owner, Jeff Cohen, whom Kevin O'Leary called "radioactive." Kevin's such a charmer.

In past seasons, there have been those fortunate entrepreneurs who survive and thrive after swimming with the Sharks. Since making a deal with Daymond John, Barbara Corcoran and Kevin Harrington, Tod Wilson's company, Mr. Tod's Pie Factory, has tripled its business, opened a new retail location and sold tens of thousands of pies on QVC. With Kevin Harrington's help, Susan Knapp's gourmet food company, A Perfect Pear, increased sales by 1000%.

Barbara Corcoran's investment in Lori D. Lite's children's books publishing company, Stress Free Kids; and Allison Costa and Amy Feldman's childcare product company, Coverplay, has been lucrative. Lori's book, The Angry Octopus, has become one of Amazon's top sellers and three additional titles are now sold in Border's bookstores nationwide.

The Sharks used their expertise, contacts and, of course, their own money to make investment commitments totaling an incredible $5 million last season. Now fans will get to see just how those investments panned out.

Time for the Shark role call: Mark Cuban, Jeff Foxworthy, real estate mogul Barbara Corcoran, infomercial industry pioneer Kevin Harrington, technology innovator Robert Herjavec, fashion icon Daymond John and financial expert Kevin O'Leary.

The Season Three premiere airs FRIDAY, MARCH 25 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on ABC.
