Mark Cuban: Shark Tank bubble is even more strict than the NBA bubble

  • Shark Tank has been filming in quarantine at an undisclosed Las Vegas hotel. "We finished our first pod about a week ago, and then we’re going to have another one, I’m not sure of the exact date, where we’ll finish out the season and finish filming… I don’t know the premiere date, but I know we’re supposed to hear what the premiere date is going to be shortly," Cuban tells Variety. The Dallas Mavericks owner compared it to the NBA bubble: "It truly was a bubble," he says. "You know, being very familiar with the NBA bubble, I can tell you the Shark Tank bubble was even more strict. I mean, we were literally kept in our rooms and had to follow a specific path to a specific elevator, following tape on the floor and signs on the wall to go to a specific makeup station. Then the set was redone, so it had social distancing. Instead of just a straight line with our seats like in the past, it’s kind of curved so that we’re facing the entrepreneurs and have six feet – six and half feet, actually — between each of the Sharks. It’s significantly different in what we had to do to film."
