'Shark Tank' is a reality television series that premiered on ABC on August 9, 2009. The show is based on Dragon's Den, which has been licensed in numerous countries. The original series concept is derived from a Japanese show, Manê no Tora (Money Tigers). The series stars five "Sharks"-multi-millionaire business tycoons-who hear investment proposals from entrepreneurs and consider whether to invest in the businesses.

The series is produced by Mark Burnett who signed a deal in 2008 with Dragons' Den format-holder Sony to produce an American version. Unlike many versions of the show (particularly English-speaking versions), Burnett chose to retitle the U.S. version Shark Tank. The series shares similarites with previous ABC series American Inventor, which was co-produced by Peter Jones, a "Dragon" on the UK version of Dragons' Den.

Four new episodes began airing on Friday, January 8, 2010 at 9/8c, using unaired footage from previous tapings.
