The lineup finally turns over.
The lineup finally turns over — a full-time Cuban, and a first look at the shark who'd become a fixture.
A rhythm worth tracking.
Season three opens with Kevin Harrington gone from the panel entirely, and Mark Cuban stepping into a full-time seat after a season of guest turns. Daymond John, Kevin O'Leary, and Robert Herjavec anchor every episode, while Barbara Corcoran misses several installments — filled in by a newcomer named Lori Greiner, making her first appearances on the show. Fifteen episodes, plus celebrity cameos from Bill Walton and Steve Wozniak, round out a season built on transition.
The #05 slot.
Slot #05 of 6 in the Shark Tank Editor's Canon. Season three is the season where the original founding panel genuinely stops being the founding panel. Kevin Harrington, part of the show since episode one, doesn't return, and Mark Cuban converts from his season-two guest spots into a full-time seat — the clearest sign yet that the show was actively auditioning its long-term panel. Daymond John, Kevin O'Leary, and Robert Herjavec anchor every episode, while Barbara Corcoran's absences from several installments open the door for a newcomer, Lori Greiner, whose guest appearances here are her first ever on the show. Fifteen episodes is a modest middle-season order, and the panel still reads unsettled rather than confident, which is exactly why it lands in the canon's back half.
