  • 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

I don't really understand the point of the show anymore.

It seems to be that most fans are OK with whatever concessions it will take for them to watch their favorite blorbos live in relative comfort for 60 days (looking at Jon and Josie fans here).
I understand the necessity to slow-burn things like TTS but you throw that concern out the window when you have Sam come in like a wrecking ball and cause massive drama. Which leads to the fish needing "time off" and "relaxing" which we don't even get to observe. Seems like maybe this could have waited? I'm also somewhat bothered by the producers snitching on Vance/Letty for their tricks because nobody told them sabotage was off limits. TTS snitching is fine because it's unreliable. But this will have a cooling effect on anyone doing anything similarly entertaining in the future.
Personally I didn't find the Simmons kicking all that gratifying - he could have been tortured via TTS, challenges, fishtoys, etc- and the producers could have disseminated his embarassing books to the other fish (pedo, tiny penis), etc. I don't really believe there was a "legal liability". Could have still had him kicked in an explosive manner when he was either naturally voted off, or closer to the end if he got close to actually winning (lol).
But they do all that, and now Jon needs to be treated with kid gloves on top of his headgear to keep him around, because they know the show is going to be a lot more boring without him. And that's probably true. But how much do you sacrifice to keep everyone's faves on?
I wonder if they should just give up the idea that there's even a contest going on and just put these goofy people in entertaining (but less stressful) situations, since people seem to just enjoy their favorites interacting. But without a contest, I don't think people would be as aggressive at picking faves.

I just don't know, fishbros... (:_(
 
i'll give them the night, encountering a person that you thought was normal turned freak can be traumatizing. but people must be allowed to rip on the retard. i hope what sam said is some kind of joke. (it's not)
 
It's really gay. The gravity of this concept's failure pushes Sam Hyde fanboys onto their knees. They understand now that their surrogate debtmaxxing dad will never be as truly edgy as anything in the 1990s or early 2000s.
If the show was run the way you wanted cunt, it would've died day 2. Fuckin impatient zoomers I swear
 
I think I’d you want to do this right from the start next time you get every day joes. They’re interviewed by Sam and Jet and if they recognize them then they’re out. The show is not called Fishtank to their face. The Fishtank in the future should be a huge basement somewhere in the Midwest. No outside orders of food. Food is brought to the new fish in unmarked containers. All TTS moderated.
The one problem with getting normal people is that they would have to severely bump up the prize.
Normies won't put themselves through a "hell house" for 20k.
 
Jon is the only real human being in the tank, if you don't like him, (I'm not saying all the time), you lack a soul.
The other men in the house are conniving and desperate for popularity, and the women are like strawman depictions of women..
Jon is a weaw human being, and a hewo.
 
I don't think there's much of a plan. I don't think the show is shit now, there's just a lot of incompetence, laziness, and questionable decisions keeping it from realizing it's full potential. Hopefully season 2 is created with some lessons learned.
Yeah, i know. Just quoting the funny /pol/ meme. The lack of planning is this show's double edged sword, you just gotta take it for what it is
 
They needed to take this shit down tonight after what happened, but I think going soft on Jon is dumb. Maybe for the first 24 hours sure, but the coddling can't be for the rest of the time he's there. However these autist went through some intense mental overload today so it is nice that the crew are giving them a quiet one to relax and chill.

Sam also needs to learn that deals will always go pear shaped. You should always assume that so if it actually does go through there's excitement, and at the same time if it doesn't work out, it's not as painful. Season 1 is a mess but a fantastic one, there's no denying that.
 
The show is absolutely anything but boring and you don’t have to be a contrarian faggot just because you’re on the farms.
The show is boring. The shitshow surrounding the show is what's interesting. If the show wasn't boring this thread would be discussing things that actually happened on the show after they happened rather than slapfights between rampant doomposters vs. Sam fanboys. Trying to figure out if this project is going to fail just slightly or very hard is what's keeping the replies rolling in. If someone built a badly-designed rocket car & collided with a wall at 400kph & people talked about that, it doesn't mean they are praising the idiot whose hubris killed himself.
 
Question for Josiecels: os she fit to take care of a baby, or has Mr. Goldstriker finally answered the autistic gf question?
She's not, I'd trust her with inflating bouncy balls all day tho. Everything was breaking down around her and the only thing she focussed on was getting that bouncy ball inflated. Based as fuck.

Well, I imagine season 2 will be even more popular. A lot of normie YouTubers aren’t talking about it yet. People like Critikal getting his hands on a DVD is going to really increase the eyes on this thing.
 
Yeah, that's the entertaining part. What do you want to watch a girl spin in a chair and "stim" or a guy with zero social awareness continuing to annoy the fishtankers with his voice alone.
No I want the sensitive to not get special treatment. Forget TTS you can't even watch the show right now (27/7 btw) because he doesn't want to be seen.

There's no way Critikal touches anything with Hydes name on it, and if he does he'll moralfag about it

Your cherrypicking of what has been happening in this thread is very gay and i don't understand why you'd spend your time here arguing over something you don't find stimulating
