McMiLLER to appear on Shark Tank next month

Games company McMiLLER will appear on ABC’s Shark Tank on December 10th.

Founded by Julian Miller and David McGranaghan, McMiLLER’s popular slate includes It’s Bananas, Uproar and Fish Fight.

“We started out trying to make our friends and family laugh over the holidays – we never imagined it would turn into a global business, but here we are, with games flying off shelves, and about to pitch to the Sharks on national television,” said Miller.

“There was one moment, something that might not even make the cut, where everything suddenly shifted. It jolted us. I remember thinking: ‘Ah, okay… This is what we prepared for.’ This is the moment we came for. Now roll with it. It felt like stepping into the deep end and deciding to swim.”

McGranaghan added: “It was the most intense hour of our lives. Exhilarating, terrifying, and surreal, but also one of the proudest moments we’ve shared together. We were standing there as husbands, as founders, and as creatives who’ve built this thing from scratch. It was wild.”

McMiLLER appears on Shark Tank, Season 17, Episode 08, airing Wednesday, December 10 at 9PM ET/PT on ABC.
