I know the show is yet to go to air, however from what weâve seen so far, the production values of this new version seem a fair bit cheaper than the previous.
As well the set looks significantly smaller (anyone know where it was filmed, 10âs Pyrmont studios?), and for the most part theyâve gone with a younger and possibly more unknown shark line-up.
Will also be interesting to see how the show compares and competes in a 7:30 timeslot (though it aired a few times there previously) as well, no doubt Tuesday nights chosen after its most recent seasons aired on that evening too.

Were the people in previous line-ups well known before they appeared on the show though?

Depends on the individual perhaps, but I knew more of the previous line-up and felt they wouldâve been more widely known.
This time they seem to have gone with a largely newer suite of entrepreneurs for a new generation, which donât seem to have the same gravitas.
Guess it remains to be fully seen when the show premieres next week.

Unfortunately I think this will pun intended, tank. Itâs up against 2 huge shows and nobody wants to watch young rich people flaunt their wealth and try and to make more money.

Iâm happy theyâve brought the show back and think itâs a great format, Iâm just not that good enthused to watch it based on what weâve seen so far - will reserve any further thoughts until Iâve watched it. Just hate that it takes them so long to make shows available on P+ (and you never really know if some shows will or not) as Iâd rather watch ad free and on demand.

Unfortunately you might be right and it will tank, however I donât agree about the âyoung rich peopleâ. The American guy is quite old and if these young people help others further their businesses, I say good luck to them. And I wouldnât watch the two âhuge showsâ even if the Shark Tankers paid me to. 
A promo featuring Jane Lu aired during tonightâs season premiere, pointing viewers to go to the ANZ website for the latest small business tips.

Not a bad opening episode. Well produced and good stories going with the products. Pretty entertaining. Good to have something like this in prime time. Adds variety to the schedule.
10 is not very broadly watched but they have some really good prime time programming lately. Thereâs no accounting for the taste of Australians who blindly watch 7 and the continual dross they dish up night after night.

Agree. Great show. The set overall is definitely cheaper than the past version but it was still good to watch.

Good opening episode; enjoyed the range of products. The new sharks settled in very quickly; you can get an idea of how the roles they are going to play.

Sharks Put Health And Well-Being First.
All New Shark Tank Australia. Tuesdays At 7.30pm On 10 And 10 Play.
On tonightâs Shark Tank Australia season premiere, our brand-new sharks armed with their own cash*,* and brand-new Aussie entrepreneurs, were ready to enter a brand-new Tank for the chance to change their lives forever.
First up in the Tank was 28-year-old Davey from Victoria, founder of skincare brand, Boring Without You. The business had seen phenomenal organic traction through TikTok, over its nine-month inception, with Davey seeking $36,000 for 20% equity. Impressed, Marketing King Sabri, e-commerce giant Davie, fashion phenomenon Jane, and global businessman Robert, counter-offered for a chunk of Daveyâs business, with the entrepreneur snapping up an irresistible offer of $50,000 for 20%, from his favourite shark, Davie.
Putting his best foot forward and waiting for his chance to face the Sharks, was Victorian entrepreneur and podiatrist, Thien. Ready to stop pain from the feet up, Thien was seeking $50,000 for a 10% stake in his cork insole business, STRYDA. Emotions ran high as Thien revealed his upbringing as a refugee from Vietnam, striking a chord with Shark Robert, who fought back tears as he told his story of growing up as an immigrant in a foreign country. As the only insole made with over 90% cork and impressive margins to back, Sabri, Davie, Jane and Robert bandied together and made Thien a deal he couldnât refuse - $50,000 for 40% of the business.
Unfortunately, missing out on investments tonight, were the lightweight portable mini-cinema Pixxie; robotic sparring device, the Punching Pro; and innovative menâs underwear brand, VANTA.
Next Tuesday, expect the unexpected, with a dog dunny, beauty for men, and a house of retro games.
Loved it. Glad itâs back. Not sold on all the sharks yet but it was ep one so Iâm sure they will grow on me.
Unfortunately I donât hold much hope for ratings against 7 and 9, god knows why Australians so blindly watch those channel. Saw a repeat of the voice yesterday and wow it is average. The singers, the judging, the hosting and the editing. Just average. The traitors is so much better as a reality offer but most people have no idea about it and I agree that ten have done a poor job promoting it
