ABOUT THE SHOW

The hit unscripted series will reach its milestone 200th episode in 2018.

Also in season nine, the Sharks are on track to surpass the amount of money offered each season in their investment deals.

Over the past eight seasons, the Sharks have offered more than $107 million to bankroll a creative array of innovative entrepreneurs.

The entrepreneurs who dare to enter the Tank must try to convince the Sharks to part with their own hard-earned cash and give them the funding they desperately need to turn their dreams into million-dollar realities.

All of the good, bad, emotional and even absurd pitches help showcase the "I wish I had thought of that" business ideas and products.

But the Sharks have a goal, too – to get a return on their investment and own a piece of the next big business idea.

When the Sharks hear an idea worth sinking their teeth into, they're more than ready to declare war and fight each other for a piece of it.

"Shark Tank" has won four back-to-back Emmys in 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014 for Outstanding Structured Reality Program.

The show received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Reality Program in 2012 and 2013.
