With a (questionable) W from James Drake, how would you rate season 5 of Fishtank?

  • 1 Star — Absolute disaster. Unwatchable, boring, production fucked it up bad, the fish were lame

    Votes: 58 7.4%
  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 91 11.7%
  • 3 Stars — Average. Solid entertainment in spots, some good chaos and crashouts, but nothing special

    Votes: 177 22.7%
  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 408 52.2%
  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

So for this show to legitimately work, they would need to rent some type of home that's on a filming lot or something? Is that how other reality TV shows that require contestants to live together work?

I'm just trying to wrap my head around how they can not let this happen again. I mean, honestly, they will probably continue to use houses that they can not legally do this type of show in.. just in a different more relax state because there probably isn't any profit to make in this type of show if you have to go about doing it right way.
I think reality TV shows usually just rent a house or mansion to do their productions in.

I think it helps though that they may choose places that are in more secluded locations rather than a place that looks to be a normal neighborhood. Since you'd want to prevent looky-loos coming around (as has happened with Fishtank) and make sure the production has their own space to work or prepare things for challenges or whatever.

I'm skeptical that the Fishtank people were working on getting proper production insurance, since I get the impression a lot of it was pretty amateurish. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't bother even getting catering of some sort for those working on the show (seems normal to just do a buffet setup or some kind of craft services).

I imagine the real challenge is getting stuff like production insurance, which I suspect Jet/Fishtank didn't bother with, since it'd mean having to supply safety plans, scripts, locations, and other such information to the insurance company.

They probably just figured they could get any random house and use it for the streaming show while skipping a lot of the harder aspects of actually doing a reality tv show of some sort.
 
why don't they just buy a shitty house in the middle of nowhere, get starlink and do the show from there? doing this show in a residential neighborhood was bond to run into problems with how many Karens there are.
 
so I found some of Angie's patreon photos floating around /ftl/ nothing particularly risque compared to her instagram. (I didn't name the photos)

I’m sure they have never thought of this. Everyone should keep saying it. They’ve probably never even heard of starlink
then maybe they should fucking do it instead of being wigger retards and risking their project on something that they knew was a potential problem and had already had issues with in the past and was almost guaranteed to fuck them sooner or later.

Despite the constant (deserved) ragging on the wiggers for their evident incompetence, I can think of like 10 different logistical nightmares that would arise from acquiring a rural property significantly away from their home office and trying to run a multi-cam 24/7 interactive livestream for 42 days off of a fucking starlink. The backseat quarterbacking with dumb ideas like this from people that are always operating in hindsight with no skin in the game has to be infuriating for them.
 
Starlink doesn't have enough upspeed, we saw that during the RV stuff.
It's not feasible to run the show off a starlink.
Also all the crew lives and works on east coast.
it's just not feasible to up and move everyone to the middle of nowhere

people think starlink is some magical thing, it's not. satellite internet is slow as shit.
you can't run something like this on it.
starlink is made for being in the middle of nowhere and it's your only option.
