  • 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%

You might of actually touched gold here. Hypothetical scenario: can you imagine being the fish that loses “X challenge” and all the other fish say get fast food or whatever while you get relegated to the kitchen to eat soup with Brian


would be demoralising af
really they just need to have fewer challenges for cash and more for comfort. Like if you win this you can have fast food, or a nice Nerf gun, or you get to order something off Amazon.

walking out without being eliminated by prod = no cash
10th place elimination= 1k
...
2nd place =20k
1st place=50k

right?
 
It would be better than the fucking grits famine, ensuring that everyone is able to stay healthy and nourished so they're not zombies but with bland food and they get rewarded for winning stuff with meals of their choice, or being able to purchase them with a commissary that uses chips. I recall that early on in the season a commissary was discussed but never brought up again.
 
Pitch: similar to this season, you can win real food in challenges or by getting Fishtoys, but if you can't pay for or get the good food you can go to Brian's soup kitchen, where you can always eat but the caveat is that Brian has to cook it on his own.
This should generally be how most challenges are played out. It doesn’t necessarily have to include a soup kitchen, but just give them some kind of incentive to participate other than money. For example, they could very easily split the Fish up into teams of two. Some major challenge comes along and team one loses. As a result they have to sleep on the floor in the garage.

It could also be for rewards too. If it happened on Christmas the winning team could get an awesome Christmas dinner while the losing team gets nothing. Special privelages like that aren’t as boring as just giving away money and aren’t as intense as playing to not get eliminated. It keeps the Fish engaged as well. Maybe the best teammate could be immune from the next elimination or something.

They sort of tried doing this with chips, but chips were way too basic and they provided little incentive to collect other than spending them on alcohol, which was pretty cheap if I remember correctly.

Demoralizing to whom? You forgot that most of the S2 cast didn't like fast food, they merely ate it because it was a bit of variety. The whole soup kitchen idea is one of those things that sounds funny at first like the grits and peanut butter famine but immediately just being annoying and detracts from the show. The S2 cast had it so bad that actual soup was a step up from their normal diet of uncooked ramen bricks with a spoonful of peanut butter and most of them were still pleasant and engaged during the worst of the grits famine. Some of the fish like Tay were more annoyed at the lack of basic hygeine products like deoderant in their loot crates more than anything.

you have to remember we have no idea what the S3 cast will be like. Even if i absolutely HATED fast food the idea that im stuck in a kitchen eating soup while everyone else is off eating together would definitely be a beat down. especially if its later in the show. im sure you’ll get some people that won’t mind being away from everyone else though. also bare in mind given its fishtank there would probably be some twist ruining it anyway
 
To add onto Brian's Soup Kitchen: house pet.
Add in a pet* for the fish to care about, and take care of. Have rewards be taking it for walks outside, so there's a real chance to leave the house. You get a real incentive (fresh air) and a new way for them to fuck over each other (stealing/harming the pet).

*pet rock, not a real animal

When I started reading this I thought you were saying add Brian as the house pat, like in a dog costume or something. I think that would actually be pretty funny lmao.
 
Idea “Fi-Shop/ Fish-Op” :
instead of a house it’s a giant warehouse themed to an ikea/walmart/costco/Home Depot type warehouse with blaring corporate music non stop,only interrupted by Jet and his wigger crew alerting the fish over the intercoms. These no direct closed rooms only a maze of disorienting displays, the Fish, now “wagies” have to sleep on the show room beds without messing them up. They actually sell Fishtank themed merch/slop to customers coming in and out with a smile. The “Challanges” are framed as DEI HR routines, such as repeating the company motto from memory or stacking can displays Manager Jacob Goldstriker mows down. Occasionally, actors come in and out during bits as mangy retail customers. Like Charls Carroll in drag as a bitchy Karen, Summer as an antsy mighty B esque Girl Scout selling cookies who vomits on the show floor or Charleston White having an in store brawl with his melanated comedy troupe the Fish are forced to break up without breaking the overly progressive dei rules. Have Classic fish as Higher ups and non retail employees that make the newer contestants miserable like Sylvia as the Regional Manager blowing vapes in their faces or Jimmy as the Wily rambling Janitor. Maybe hire actual homeless people to give the retail hell experience a biting edge. Also every once in a while Fatty barges in on a mobility scooter knocking things down to fuck with the fish. Fi-Stop at Fi-Shop. The Friendly Shop.

Shinji had a censored TTS experience, he didn't deal with the literal fucking insane fanbase and production the way Tayleigh, Trish, or Jimmy did, hell Tay got it so bad that they censored most positive TTS towards in the final week which left her with a case of whiplash after the show when she found she was extremely well liked, perhaps the most well liked of all of the S2 fish. Jet did him a disservice by not easing him into the deep end of the pool to immunize him for when he got out of the tank.
Anyone else notice how Attractive Pneumonia will respond to a post about something totally unrelated to Tay and then make it about her? A bit obsessive and simpy. Is there any proof they censored positive TTS's towards her that sounds like schizo bullshit.
 
Initially I would have recommended minimal curating of the TTS for S2 because they were all fans and should have been prepared, but it became apparent pretty quickly that most of the fish didn't have much more mental fortitude than the S1 fish.

It seems like we're going to get one of these people every season lol. Last season it was Aidan towards Josie, This season its Attractive Pneumonia with Tay. I don't mind it all that much, as the people who are obsessed with particular Fish keep tabs on them when nobody else cares. It'll die down by next season, then we'll get another one.

What else is there to do with this thread besides get overly obsessed with your Internet crush?

Yell at retards for choosing that path in life
I can only imagine two options for skull hyde constantly orbiting fishtank contestants, he was ignored as a child or he gets an immense sexual gratification from it.
See? I'm having fun.

I wonder how severe it actually it is, whether it's worse compared to other contestants or it's the cultural difference making it seem overwhelming for him.
we're going to find out its like 3 accounts doing it but because this shit doesn't happen to dudes (especially in japan) he can't handle it the way literally every woman by the time they're 14 can.
Especially shows like American Idol because you know the guys who almost win a show like that could just as easily make money as singers.
so true. Shark Tank recently had to alter the way they did shit because so many people would take advantage and invest in the shit they didn't to the point that their ROI was hilariously better than the sharks themselves. American Idol up until the daughtry season didn't give a shit either, then they made sure all of the top 12 got a contract. If we're being honest its almost always better to lose a reality show than win because the contracts mean the winner gets fuck all usually. Adrienne Curry got almost nothing from winning the first season of ANTM. and the amount of "winners" that go on to good careers in most singing shows pales in comparison to the losers. the most successful person on the voice is Morgan Wallen who technically finished in 13th place.

He doesn’t seem the type to cry wolf.
cultural differences bro, plenty of asians need a quick course on racial differences and to accept the bigotry of low expectations or else they end up doing something like in rush hour: "whats up my nigger!"

Japan especially doesn't have the shittalking culture that the white areas of the internet has, i doubt he can even say the world troll.
needs to be thrown in grippy sock jail with Summer.
summer isn't worth saving. Betty is fairly normal outside of very low level pickme shit. pre internet those types would just hook up with a dude and get really into community theater or something else and be belle of whatever bullshit small town they dominate. Could easily see her as the type 20 years ago to put on a production of something like Urinetown or Pippin, blatantly using the money raised from the yearly Christmas Carol and shakespeare productions to do something only her and people she likes would enjoy.
It would be better than the fucking grits famine
It was like something out of a sketch show, sam and jet shaking their heads "why aren't they motivated to do anything" meanwhile everyone is starving. Nothing has done more to make me hate sam hyde than this season.
Idea “Fi-Shop/ Fish-Op” :
like everyone else in this thread, you're too smart and cool and handsome and your ideas are great but sam and friends will fuck it up hard.

I think you're doubting the cultural impact of easy access to the internet, I don't think people would blatantly and obviously make up lies about others, piss in helmets, ect unless they had some personality disorder.
