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: 59 7.5%

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

    Votes: 91 11.6%

  • 3 Stars — Average. Solid entertainment in spots, some good chaos and crashouts, but nothing special

    Votes: 177 22.6%

  • 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

Anybody have an idea as to what is going on with this retard? Sounds like someone in the wigger-sphere is beefing with him.

I think they stopped caring long before it even ended.
I had almost 0 interest to tune into this season. Unlike season 1 where I was glued to it and had a stream of some sort of it going damn near 24 hours a day, until fatty showed up anyway.

I could barely get myself to watch the last two weeks of season 2. Just did not give a fuck about the final fish. I would tune for maybe half an hour or so then catch highlight clips on Youtube. The finale of season 1 I spent hours a day watching.

I think if they come into contact with each other a black hole will form.

After Jimmy quit the 2nd time it was obvious they just gave up. That's when they started blaming the fish for "being boring" even though they were giving them nothing to do.

It just makes me think, okay maybe Jimmy sounded like a major pussy for not wanting to box TJ and for not wanting to go in the doghouse, but they were acting like the ball wasn't in his court. "You were supposed to make the show good"? Sam, if you can't make the show good yourself and you NEED this guy to make the show good, then I think if he doesn't want to go in the stupid doghouse or punch your pet retard, he doesn't have to go in the stupid doghouse or punch your pet retard for you...

It was cowardice, no doubt, but it was also bargaining, and Sam said "haha fuck that we don't need you to make the show good" and then bombed for the next two weeks.

I think this is gonna continue to be an issue just as I warned it would be before S2 if they don't get their shit right. And I'm pretty sure we butted heads about this before. But Sam literally said he wanted Jimmy gone at just about week four when he was talking to someone in the attic. I know what the thinking is: the more popular a contestant is, the louder his detractors are, this certainly was the case with Jon where it was as fun to abuse him as laugh with him, and once a certain number of people in the audience are sick of a guy it does give the impression that he should leave. But it's premature to remove him up until they're ready to follow him up with someone as interesting and that person never materialized, not even Greg who people keep saying "saved the show" or whatever. Greg was just better than Chris or Oliver, that's not saying a lot.
So at that point, fuck it, just be gay about it. Tell Abi to target some other guy, give Jimmy a birthday cake, whatever you have to do if the show would suck with only the boring other contestants. They clearly wanted to keep piling on him and there were plenty of opportunities to hit the brake but by the time they were telling Tayleigh to jump in on it they clearly were hoping he would quit (not throw the mallet but quit). But they must have been so cocky that with Oliver arriving the next day it wouldn't be a big deal - because Oliver's a total star, definitely a content driver...

Shout out from BG Kumbi at 10:27. He says "I can't wait for the kiwifarms post in the Sam Hyde thread about this one. Yeah, I don't even get my own thread. I get posted in the Sam Hyde MDE threads." I find this guy funny and I'm really enjoying his self-pitying pathetic arc.

We should ask ourselves a question, do we even WANT episodes of S2?
S1 had it's own feel and moments that weren't captured in the shitty editing, but it'd be basically impossible to cover everything of importance without watching the whole thing. Even watching clips and compilations is pretty lame, and you look retarded when you're trying to show your friends how funny shit was.
When I saw the mallet incident and the TJ:Jimmy fight live it was fucking awesome, but weeks later it wasn't the same. I could honestly care less if they did episodes of any season, but with this season in particular it probably would be worse than S1. I'd rather have Jet and crew spend their time and energy planning their shit out better, finding better contestants, and doing background checks so we don't have a Summer GEN2.
But they'll probably just do whippits and keep chasing that girlcock until it's too late, again.

I'll also throw one more thing in the mix, given all the drama that surrounded the S1 episodes when they came out.
This season you had production popping up to film at every mildly interesting moment, much more than in S1. One would assume they did this to have a lot of content to choose from and make things easier to edit into a series.

I'd like to know if anyone else shares this opinion, but to me this shit was really anticlimactic and annoying to see for a supposed live show. It felt as if sometimes the feed you were watching was a only a sneak-peek of the actual project with how much of the Production was on screen with cameras and equipment moving around.

You would have a tense situation evolve and suddenly there is some rumbling from the basement; An ape appears, clutching a camera, shoving it in the face of a contestant.
From a performance perspective, what impression does this give to the people being filmed ? Maybe added motivation (or stress) to act up and make "content" at the moment - which can often break the natural tension and turn it to a farce. Since they're not trained actors, think of how much video gets ruined from possible episode material just because contestants keep looking straight into the camera or paying too much attention to it.

What if instead of chimping out their directorial urges, they hid cameras across all rooms, informed the fish about their presence but kept their location a secret ? (Would make it really fun to also integrate them into a game like the codes or doll activity)
They could then use the video from all these extra feeds and create their final compilation along with the main camera stuff. Think of a dozen extra perspectives - similar to the Chair GoPro they had in the Cell - but without channeling them to the live audience at the time (Maybe only on special occassions to keep engagement high).
Few people care about their amateur editing or wigger aesthetics. But everyone has memories of the actual live-feed they were seeing at the time.
The S1 edited clips turned into an unappealing cringefest, especially if you missed the live show and you had nothing to relate to the narrative or the characters;

I remember @popnloch ness monster saying at the time that Jimmy grossed Sam out by bitching out so hard and disqualified himself for Sam’s Best Boy, so by that point he essentially had to go

throw rocks at me or whatever but I too, would struggle to participate in the Barf On The Floor To Win challenge.

even with season one foreknowledge I would not barf for Sam.

I wouldn't hit a girl over it. But I wouldn't feel bad about not just mindlessly puking on camera cuz Daddy said to
