Season 2 Review: Things are cookin' on the new season of Shark Tank, especially when someone comes in to pitch the merits of his big invention: Wake 'N Bacon. Read full review

Josh Wolk

Season 1 Review: The moneymen ask informed questions and make shrewd decisions, a welcome relief from Donald Trump's capricious calls on Burnett's "Celebrity Apprentice." Read full review

David Hinckley

Season 1 Review: Once you get past its somewhat misleading title, Mark Burnett's new Shark Tank is a well-paced hour that offers entertainment without humiliation. Read full review

Los Angeles Times

Robert Lloyd

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Rob Owen
