‘Shark Tank’ Reveals Season 17 Premiere Date & New Guest Sharks
After the Season 16 finale of Shark Tank officially said goodbye to long-time shark Mark Cuban in an emotional tribute (see more on that here), fans may be wondering what’s next for the long-lived ABC reality competition series. Now, some key details about what’s next for Shark Tank Season 17 are starting to come through.
Here’s what we know so far.
When will Shark Tank Season 17 premiere?
ABC has announced that the new season will premiere on Wednesday, September 24 at 10/9c.
Fans will undoubtedly notice this marks a big change: The show is moving to Wednesday nights instead of its longtime Friday timeslot. Shark Tank previously spent years airing on Friday evenings. (Airing on Fridays instead of Shark Tank for the fall season will be Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.)
Shark Tank Season 17 will follow a comedy and reality block that includes Shifting Gears Season 2, Abbott Elementary Season 5, and The Golden Bachelor Season 2.
The description for this season reads, “The Sharks – tough, self-made, multimillionaire and billionaire tycoons — will continue their search to invest in the best businesses and products that America has to offer, and will once again give people from all walks of life the chance to chase the American dream and potentially secure business deals that could make them millionaires.”
Who are the sharks for Shark Tank Season 17?
The full-time sharks returning for Season 17 include series originals Daymond John, Barbara Corcoran, Robert Herjavec, and Kevin O’Leary, plus Lori Greiner (who became a full-timer in Season 4) and Daniel Lubetzky (who joined the show as a main shark for Season 16).
The guest sharks for Season 17 are: Chip and Joanna Gaines, Alexis Ohanian of Reddit and Seven Seven Six, Kendra Scott, Michael Strahan, Allison Ellsworth from poppi, Fawn Weaver from Uncle Nearest Inc., and Rashaun Williams.
