If he means they can be physically stolen and not stolen from some kind of competition then that's just asking for a fight.

Does he actually think having cameras in the bathroom is funny? I don't see that being used for anything substantial other than toilet humor and sexually harassing people.

Surely he's kidding, right?

I'm more concern for the female contestant. Sick pervs are going to get off on women using the toilet.

 

[Alizarin Crimson]

Can't find contestants? Let's put cameras in the bathrooms! I'm sure people won't leave immediately to go be with their families instead!

I really don't understand the obsession with piss and shit. But maybe that's because I'm not a teenager any more.

 

[CoolFool]

I hope the bathroom cams and toilet toys are a joke. Jet is already having trouble finding people, it will be 10X harder when people find out they have zero privacy and that there will be video clips of them shitting posted online forever. Women especially won't be down for this.

Not to mention, even if you managed to find people that would agree with this, they likely wouldn't be able to stay long. The bathroom was the one room in the house the fish could escape to get a little break from the insanity and get some much needed privacy. Take that away and I foresee them quitting much sooner.

The only people I could see being able to tolerate this are people like Chris, who are disgusting and have zero shame. No one wants to see a bunch of fat lazy and gross degenerates for 2 months.

There could possibly be two bathroom cams according to this... It's over...

They need to have cams in the bathrooms. They don't have to turn them on but they need them in case people try to have secret meetings. There were several conversations in the B4 bathroom the audience couldn't hear because there wasn't cameras. Big Brother has cameras in the bathroom for the same reason.

Having a mic in the bathroom is different from a camera where people can watch you shit like Jet is saying.

I still don't think mics are a good idea either though. I get your point with Big Brother, but Fish Tank is way different from Big Brother. Big Brother is a lot less crazy and the people running the show actually know what they're doing. I feel that you could trust Big Brother to have a camera/mic in the bathroom without worrying that it's going to be shared online, and that the show runners know how to keep the secret meetings a secret from the other contestants.

Compare that to Fish Tank; we've seen on Fish Tank that Jet and the gang suck at keeping secret meetings between fish secret (They don't monitor TTS enough or Sam himself will ruin it by telling the other fish), and Jet already accidentally leaked pay piggie information. If they can't even be trusted with simpler stuff, I don't see why anyone should trust them with more sensitive stuff like bathroom privacy.

And like I said, Jet is already struggling to find contestants for a really crazy show with unsavory people. Imagine being a someone, especially a woman, thinking about joining season 2, only to look up season 1 and discover you'll be expected to stay on a show with a bunch of crazy people, in a revolting environment, with no clear set rules, and no huge grand prize. Now tell these same people that unlike the previous season, you'll be expected to live stream yourself shitting, in addition to possibly having people pay to mess with you while using the bathroom. At least in season 1 the bathroom could be seen as a bit of a break for the fish, now they don't even get that.

Yeah, good luck finding anyone remotely "normal" to agree to this.

There were several conversations in the B4 bathroom the audience couldn't hear because there wasn't cameras. Big Brother has cameras in the bathroom for the same reason.

The only way I can see this working is if it does not output to the Internet, and the producers carefully manually trigger the camera on when two or more people enter the bathroom. Then they can just share that footage to Twitter or something so people know what was said. Of course this requires diligence, responsibility and trust so they probably shouldn't even try. Big Brother is a huge carefully managed machine and can be trusted to throw out all the nudes.

Also: last time I saw a Big Brother set they had a clever thing going - a public bathroom style setup where the toilet is a very small stall behind a door and the sinks are outside it. People wouldn't want to gossip in the toilet stall with that layout because they would be all up in each other's face.


You can also see who is showering but the door is opaque.

It's very deliberate and can't be achieved in any random house. If it's a hotel like Sam mused on, it might be possible as some hotels have this layout.

They also have toilet cams (seen here) for when it's extremely necessary. I assumed all the pooping footage is carefully dumped, in a manner Jet could never achieve.

You could also just make going in the bathroom together against the rules.

I don't know much about Big Brother, so I just looked up the Big Brother grand prize and it's $500,000 (apparently it was $750,000 this season), runner up gets $75,000, and the viewer's favorite contestant gets $50,000. I also read that the house guests get paid $1,000 a week for every week they last in the house. And keep in mind, they don't have to live in a filthy home with mentally unstable gross people, and there are set rules and expectations. They don't have to worry about rigged fish buck games or games that get canceled half way through.

I don't expect Fish Tank to offer as big of a prize as Big Brother, but I don't see how they can realistically find "normal" people when they really don't offer anything a normal person would consider worth it.

I like this. So there's less feeling of "how can Josie not win the grand prize."

rigged fish buck games or games that get canceled half way through

I liked some of these but only because they were the only pranks the MDE contestants would fall for. Like when they were told they could use the bathroom during the challenge where they had to stay on the bed Chris was pissing on, so Letty tried and got disqualified. It was a total fuck you, but I think they also just wanted to give Vance some money.

If they tried that on Jon or Mauro though there would have been extreme seething.

I agree with this. I think they’re out of their mind if they think toilets in the bathroom to watch people shit is a good idea. You’re literally just inviting the biggest fetish freaks/communities in the world. Contestants, especially women, will be leaving when they find out they are being watched using the bathroom and if they allow TTS, which I’m sure they will, while they’re trying to have private time most won’t stay besides the insane MDE fans desperate to do anything to get close to getting a pat on the back from Sam or be on his show even if he bullies them. Not only just the shitting aspect, but watching people get undressed or try hiding getting undressed, showering: huge perv magnet. I know season one was filled with them but if word spreads this is going down like Jet makes it sound, it will spread beyond people who know Sam/MDE to the worst kinds of voyeuristic people out there. Betty’s simp army is a good example, all she did was show her tits once and a lot of people watching season one went crazy. These types of people will pay good money, but I thought they were trying to advance the show? Not go full poo-poo, pee-pee mode.

As many have already stated, also not good to ask fans to submit auditions. From what it sounds like, unfortunately this season is going to be filled with Sam’s fans being unfunny try-hards starting fights from hour one and nothing at all will ever be organic. They should just wait until April to find a proper, unknowing cast but it may be too late.

It almost seems like Jet is trying to pander to the worst type of audience to capitalize on money over the quality of the show by saying everyone can watch them shit and introducing “shit toys”. I have a feeling production is going to step in a great deal more than even last time to guide their fans cast on what to do even with them already sperging out.

I agree with @Punitive Castration that a set up like Big Brother would work. There has to be a line somewhere, you think that would be at letting people take a shit, change their tampon or any other completely private thing you wouldn’t want anyone to see. I follow a lot of fishtank accounts on Twitter and I don’t want to see a ton of clips of Mark, Susan, Terry, fat retard #4 wiping his ass and showing that and his gigantic dump to the cameras.

I know I’m just echoing what many others have said the last few pages, but I know Jet and/or his crew lurk the thread and everyone needs to hear unfiltered criticism.

Who knows, maybe I’m just not cultured enough and don’t get the art of it?

So basically, Fishtank is even more of a ghetto Big Brother than one would think.

No fan contestants! They'll ruin all the jokes
invites fan contestants
No lolcows! We're above that!


Here's hoping "it starts Dec. 18 and runs over the holidays" is the next domino to fall...

Daniel Larson is NOT safe to have around other people. Why do they think that would go well??

 

[Get the rope Macaulay!]

it might be possible as some hotels have this layout.

i doubt that, just in terms of layout a hotel would be terrible for this type of show. i could see a weird bed and breakfast but seriously hotels aren't designed for group activities like we need on fishtank.

but I don't see how they can realistically find "normal" people when they really don't offer anything a normal person would consider worth it.

Letty is better than normal and is the type of contestant reality shows would fucking love. And she did it for free basically. That lazy bitch could have made another 10k if she kept up a regular streaming schedule the last 6 months. If anything fishtank season 2 if they just started it in january would have a fuckton of willing neets ready to put up with it. the fact that its a show where a bunch of neets suddenly became friends and got efame means thousands must be sending in applications wishing to have the same experience. I'm more surprised they got so many good contestants for season 1. season 1 of reality shows are notoriously hard to get good casting for especially because you'll be making up a lot of the show on the fly with no proper routine format to any of it. Opposite Worlds was supposed to be a reality show for the thinking man but then they only had physical challanges and the Jon-esque firefighter ended up winning in near seconds most challenges because they didn't playtest them well and because he ended up winning he got to stay in luxury while his opponents stayed in a cave and were sick most of the time. You'd think for season 2 of Fish Tank all the kinks should be mostly worked out and all they need to worry about now is casting properly especially because everyone sort of knows what to expect now.

Season 1 having so many good moments and having a fairly good reputation probably means they got flooded with good contestants or would have if they opened up applications a few weeks into the show like literally every other reality show does, that way you have viewers that watch the season's high point and jump at the chance to hang with next season's versions of letty or josie or jon.

The fact they aren't changing the release date and are begging for certain "types" of reality show contestant doesn't bode well. But overall you'd genuinely be surprised how many people all over the world and especially in the US are jumping at the chance to spend weeks getting tortured in various ways. For fucks sake, freeloader Alex Stein applied for every show he could find up until a few years ago, the weirdos willing to do anything for fame or just to have an experience are way more than you could even imagine. Like i'm sure they have plenty of offers its more about "will these people fit with what we want to do this season" because if they get a dozen assholes and they all leave a few weeks in then its not really worth it for anyone.

 

[Punitive Castration]

certain "types" of reality show contestant

I'll give Jet credit here and suggest he might only be throwing out strange archetypes to remind people that he is not strictly looking for a) insta models b) actors c) retards d) exact copies of anyone we saw on S1. I don't think he is actually trying to fill those roles in particular.

 

[Sicko Hunter]

The most unhinged part of the show wasn't even Letty shitting in the closet or Frank smashing things it was Sam pretending like he was going to inject Fatty with his TRT needle on the kitchen table and Fatty weirdly being almost okay with it. If anyone has a clip of this please @ me I'm looking for it.
