‘Shark Tank’ Season 11 Episode 5: Fans think that Robert Herjavec is the ‘coolest’ shark ever
After a month-long hiatus, ABC’s popular reality show is back on air and truth be told, we did miss watching the entrepreneurs present the most innovative business ideas we have ever seen, as much as we missed watching the sharks fight for the best deal. Episode 10, the first of 2020, was not as exciting as we had anticipated. However, there were a few trendy and very intriguing products that were pitched. Take the Zuum shoes for example.
Young entrepreneurs Chico Guerra and Mason Buechler brought these electric wearable techs to the table. The ‘Segway’ like shoes could easily increase the mobility of people and are also affordable than many other brands in the same space. While the other sharks were deliberating about the viability of the product, Robert Herjavec took it sportingly. He is always keen on trying newer products. So, we were not surprised that he was instantly game for the Zuum shoes and zoomed around the set like a child. And fans think that this makes the shark a fun and interesting personality, and also the ‘coolest’ one on the show.
Like @AndrewColletcomments, “I always like the fact that @robertherjavec is always the most eager to try a cool looking product haha #SharkTank”. Fan @Elsa050467’s tweet definitely seconds that. Her post says it all, “I’m telling you, @robertherjavec is the coolest! Watching him go on ZUUM. He’s ALWAYS game for anything! 🤘🏼😎 #SharkTank”
But Robert is not always just ‘cool and fun’. As much as he is encouraging, he is also very particular about the business he invests in and tries to rationalize his every deal with the entrepreneurs on the show. That is why, although he was excited about Mason and Chico’s idea and loved the product, he was not keen on investing in the business and nor did he jump into a deal with them. He felt that despite being ‘fun’ and fancy, Zuum shoes lacked commercial viability in the long run and they also lacked a clear vision of their brand.
‘Shark Tank’ Season 11 is back on air every Sunday 9 pm, only on ABC.
