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

The lack of structure and a vision was felt by everyone and I found it annoying a lot of the time was a viewer.
They need to embrace the Big Brother inspo and create/plan real challenges/sets before the show even goes live. Love production
to death, but its so fucking cringe watching them standing there trying to come up with low quality shit to do or altering challenges on the fly.

They need to be so prepared with the challenges that they have a little UI item that explains what the challenge is right now and what the rules are, that doesn't change once it appears because the rules aren't changing.



Also sorry, I forgot I said I was going to update with the clip of Greg and Jimmy making nice, and it's a few posts back now so I'll do it separate.

It's gotta be from the Jimmy perspective because half of what happens is Jimmy's face as he's trying not to share his paranoid thoughts to Tayleigh or Greg. This is way back at the start of it:


Some of the unnecessary context to start - while Tayleigh was setting up the call with Greg, Jimmy picked his cat up and started babying it and then made a joke to Tayleigh that he's not making that noise at her so "don't get your hopes up," which was very cringe.
She hung up on him immediately after by accident, while figuring out how to start a 3-way call, but he started getting schizo that he had pissed her off. Then decided that the real culprit was Greg playing spiteful games to keep him out of the call (due to Greg having said many times in the past that he hasn't met Jimmy but has no interest in talking or making nice with him due to his actions).

Jimmy quickly figures out that she didn't exclude him and that he just doesn't understand how to use discord and goes "Oops I'm a bit tipsy and a bit paranoid." When he joins Tayleigh goes "jimmy are you here too" and he says "now i'm here," and she replies "nice." At least based on his facial expression he really seemed to think she was mad until that moment.

They tried to proceed sort of awkwardly. Greg started talking about the origins of his Mr. Beast bit and how people keep saying he's latching onto the fish for attention and Jimmy started making eyes at the camera. Greg starts to say how, once he saw everyone outside the tank, when they weren't stressed out, he "let go of a lot of his dislike for" the fish and Jimmy turns again and kind of silently pitched his head like, "really?"

Jimmy accidentally steps on Greg starting to apologize by talking about something else, Tayleigh tells Jimmy to wait then tells Greg to start again.

TL;DR the apology itself starts here.

The apology definitely takes him by surprise, Greg thanks Jimmy for thinking he was funny in the show, Tayleigh starts chanting "FRIENDTANK"! Then Jimmy I think feels embarrassed and abruptly changes the subject to his cat.

It's interesting because I assumed Greg would stay anti-Jimmy on principle but I think - he does mention that Abi's chat has been shitting on him and also he must know that Tay is the most successful streamer out of the fish and she's got this bond with Jimmy, so I guess maybe those are the angles.

Tay finally got to the point in the digest everyone was waiting for and spent the whole time laughing maniacally. Unfortunately the digests are threadbare in that stretch of the season so its not really evident why Tay in particular had such a seething hatred of Fatty since none of her negative interactions, particularly the sexual ones are covered, only a single time where Trish gets sexually propositioned is covered and not to the full extent that went down.




Tay says she is going to be cutting back to two days a week, Tuesday and Thursday until she completes her crochet backlog of "over 100 beanies"

Trishles streams tonight were interesting lol. Nothing groundbreaking but some interesting bits and pieces. First stream was a Arbys mukbang with her sister & a new-ish character in the Trish universe: Tyler. Her sisters boyfriend. The mukbang was PAINFULLY UNCOMFORTABLE to watch to fascinating degree. It’s extremely clear early on Mahlia (Trishas sister) didn’t want to be there at all. The apparent reason for this is twofold: she absolutely despises when Trish talks to Tyler & apparently Trish made her wait an hour before the mukbang setting stuff up meaning the food was cold. To summarise how the stream went: Trish sat in the middle trying to talk to chat. Mahlia to her right staring daggers & giving side eyes at everything trish says while refusing to review anything. Tyler to the left acting like hes hosting a Mr beast video lol. Every item he eats is something like “WOW GUYS THIS BEEF SANDWICH IS SO GOOD GUYS”. Every once in a while Mahlia would bring up something uncomfortable like Tyler apparently being a shroom addict when Mahlia met him. He would immediately do his Mr Beast voice over it and change the subject. Trish would just be sat pulling awkward faces at the camera. Mahlia also was having absolutely no shit from the Trish chat and was abusing everyone back. Tyler confirmed Trish & Mahlia did indeed have a major fight right before Trish went on F.T. Tyler seems to confirm he’d be down for S3 if he could get on the show. Says his favourite fish/freeloaders were fatty & Brian. He was about to explain the brian choice but got cut off lol. Some more lore on the Fatty rolling loud drama. What actually seems to have happened is: Fatty wanted to meet up with Trish. Trish arrived. Fatty seemingly didn’t bother to find her so she ended up at the wrong concert. Trish gives up trying to find him & goes elsewhere. After rolling loud fatty messaged Trish asking if she enjoyed the show (no idea if this was sarcastic or lard ass genuinely didn’t know if she was in the crowd or not). Trish being Trish deliberately ignored this message out of spite. After the the uncomfortable mukbang Trish drove back to her house to stream.


Post mukbang stream was standard with some interesting bits sprinkled in: Trish has a key lanyard knitted by Tay. Apparently the only two fish dreamed about was Octavius (Rip Brian) and…….TJ lol (Rip Taylor). Trish has confirmed she’s going to be doing a drunk cooking stream with Papa Melchor at some point. Interestingly she stated while reacting to Judge trying to set her up with Brian early doors that shes not sure she woulda done the romance thing if not offered 1K (that might be true but didn’t she kiss & flirt with Brian right up until he got eliminated which passes when the forced romance ended ? (CK leaving). The rest of the stream was fortnite with the discord & some drawing game




all in all good second stream. very strange mukbang stream lol

I'm not disagreeing with you but planning that far ahead would add a lot in production costs. While paramount (the company that owns big brother) is a multi billion dollar company, mde is maybe anywhere from 2-5 million.
They had to sell a percentage of the show to keep it running. I think that's indicative of something.

It doesn't cost much money to think of challenge ideas before going live. They should trial them when they can and be ready to cross some off the list but they need a list to pull from that isn't made after the show goes live. They got away with floundering live during season 1 because it was basically a rough pilot but watching them "uhh..." live on cam or be inconsistent with the challenges is rough and everyone in the house picked up on it too.
None of the viewers or contestants really understood how points worked in The Cell: Season 2 Edition and it ended up not mattering at all, maybe even hurting the challenge as Shinji seemed to think there was no point in toughing it out. Production is making their own job harder than it has to be by not planning better.

Shinji realized that he was desperately down in points and that those +2 point papers he found on the ground were almost certainly not going to be counted, also both Tay and Shinji were suspecting that the thing was about to end soon since the rate of challenges had dried up dramatically so he just decided to leave. We'll never know what exactly his explaination in the hallway was since the camera feeds died, but it IS clear that Sam was already on the premises since he was putzing around when they came up 5-10 minutes later and that Abi was shortly due to arrive so likely Sam was going to terminate it just to introduce the new freeloader within an hour of Shinji leaving anyway.



I don't know where this notion came up that nobody knew what the points were for. Its clear they learned their lesson from Season 1 regarding endurance challenges, that the fish would grind it out far harder than they ever would have expected and the event would run long. They decided to institute a point system so they could terminate the challenge at any point and decide a winner. If you were to point out the finale as a clusterfuck then I would agree, nobody, not even the production staff knew the exact ruleset because it changed too many times.

Did the contestants understand the purpose of the points system? Why not state this clearly or was it?

Usually longer challenges had rule changes or something thrown in and it was inconsistent. Very annoying.

I see where you're coming from. I thought you meant building challenges, testing them and keeping the ones that worked. My mistake.

The fact this freak has simps is criminal.

So she lived in a trailer park now?
Take take this as you will, but yandex found semi similar images. She could very well could've taken that photo herself, but at this point, I doubt everything she says. Screenshot_20240320_072910_Chrome.jpg
 
She's cleaned up her telegram quite a bit since the Lance video. Deleted all of her nudes. Removed everything from the gore channel. Completely deleted the channel that had nothing but people posting their literal shit. So either she's trying to hide how degenerate it was or she feels bad about it. Doubt its the latter or she'd just delete the entire thing.
