‘Shark Tank’ Season 11 Episode 9 postponed for AMAs 2019 and fans are not happy about it

While this is quite common with networks to prioritize live and large-scale events, fans don’t find it to be worthwhile.
UPDATED NOV 25, 2019

If you love the business reality show ‘Shark Tank’ and have been dedicatedly following every episode for years, then tonight, November 24, you are in for a little disappointment. The network will not be airing the scheduled Episode 9 of Season 11 of ‘Shark Tank’. Instead, you will get to see a live broadcast of the American Music Awards, airing from 8 pm through 11 pm. The 46th edition of the biggest musical event in America will be live from Microsoft Theaters, Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, fans of ‘Shark Tank’ are not happy about the latest episode being canceled, or rather postponed to another week, to accommodate a live music event in the same schedule. As @HeatwoleKirkTweet, “I'm FREAKING OUT! Am I seeing this right? No #SharkTank tonight because the #AMAs2019!? Are you kidding me!!!!??? @ABCSharkTank”

And he is not the only one. @DeeBlog2also comments, “No Shark Tank tonight because of American Music Awards. Not happy.😒 Seriously, how many awards shows do celebrities need? Seems like there's one every week.🙄 #sharktank #awards”

Another fan, @martinpinnau, also joins the club. “No #SharkTank tonight because of the AMAs, and no #AFV tonight because it is preempted locally. Disappointing.”

'Shark Tank' started in 2009 and have been evolved to be one of the hottest and one-of-its kind reality show, with ambitious entrepreneurs presenting breakthrough business concepts. Season 11 is hosted/judged by Kevin O'Leary, Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, and Daymond John, along with a guest investor/judge, every week.

We understand why a break in your favorite show could be a little frustration, especially, when it’s an inspiring show like ‘Shark Tank’. Business ideas from startup owners and innovators, pitching to the giants in the investment business, and taking home million-dollar worth of capital raised, is not just exciting to watch, but also encourages aspiring entrepreneurs. So, when there’s a break in the rhythm and flow of such excitement, fans are bound to be upset. 

But here’s the good part of it. When ‘Shark Tank’ Season 11 comes back on air with Episode 9, you can expect some interesting and unique business pitches. As the trailer shows, it will be a Christmas-themed episode with entrepreneurs presenting holiday-special solutions and services.

‘Shark Tank’ Season 11 will back on ABC with all-new episode 9, on December 1, 2019, at 9 pm ET/PT.
