    Votes: 407 52.2%

Video removed. He played some music, said he would be releasing an album. Said he wanted to do a stream with two Asian bitches and some old black guy he knew in a hot tub together (Coletank???). Most of the stream felt like he was playing up his personality, constantly saying he was being avant-garde and, “I’m gay give me money.” Would sometimes reference the chat and “make fun” of them for asking questions. Beat the shit of some drums, and referenced the Heil Nina song by saying “all this money and fame and I don’t get to have a girlfriend.” Very meta and fourth wall breaking type shit. Hard to tell what he said was real and what was for the lulz.

Honestly was a pretty funny and chill stream. Hope an archive pops up soon.

>Jon had a spinoff
>Greg has a spinoff
>Jimmy announcing a spinoff
>Cole considering a spinoff

The former Fish won't admit this but they're obviously losing faith in the wiggers' ability to keep the show going and maintain this community.

Competition in the economy of attention might be the thing that finally lights a fire under Jet's ass... or he'll continue phoning it in and the audience will split up into silos and disappear.

Bitchtank is technically Lettys spinoff
 
I've been trying to think what were the points at which each season goes wrong.

Season 1 - ??? (there may of not really been anything wrong with S1)

Season 2 - Mishandling Jimmy and Cole and losing two audience favorites early. Not organizing final 2-3 weeks properly leading to lots of dead air. Creating dark vibe in the show.

Season 3 - Screwing up Famous House part 2 with Brandon and then kicking out the cast. Not preparing for the mysterious reason they had to leave the house which lead to the RV Saga.

Season 4 - Not preparing the houses and not getting their legal side of things in order and winging the season to see how far they could get before getting shut down.
 
So am I retarded here or what? The music videos that have dropped don't seem to be Coleish and this guy streaming is all covered up, when Cole never did (only wore shades) and this guy doesn't really sound or speak like Cole to me
It's weird because it does sometimes sound like him but the rest of the time it doesnt. I also don't remember Cole talking like that much of a Zoomer. The music sounds more like him at least, and some of the photos he used are new. Maybe he's just covering up for the inevitable crash out where he deletes everything and doesnt want it blowing back on him IRL.

The Brandon situation was handled really poorly but there was no mystery reason for the RV saga. They were on the verge of getting charged for Disorderly because of the influx of calls. There wasn't any possible way to prepare for that.
 
Cole wiped and then deleted his channel.

Gotta clear this up. Cole’s channel was not banned. He deleted it! We want him back!

Fishtank is something that's hard to do and keep a sizeable fanbase while retaining "creative control". I know I've alluded to it before and many other people on this thread have too but even getting a giant fanbase isn't all that great because it causes tons of other issues.

The other side of it is that the show is simply too long for many people to continuously watch. Even people in this thread either don't have time for "current season" or just miss the first few weeks and don't feel inclined to get into it.

The spinoffs seem way easier to do because they're a lot less complex and simply because they're new (whereas fishtank "production" is basically a company now). The real reason they do spinoff shows is because of boredom and also because the money from Fishtank itself is shit - Burt was supposed to win $50k and that's not really even enough to live for a year depending on your standards. Also very few of them get on to future seasons/MDE stuff regularly (except Letty and Luke and some others in small parts I guess).

A few of them solo Livestream but everyone knows how that is. Only a few percent of livestreamers even make enough money to live off of and most fishtank contestants don't have enough charisma and stamina to make it work.

Either way "Le wacky livestreamed 24/7 show" is just another segment of the market and Fishtank still isn't even super profitable based off of the numbers. The only person Jet and production need to be worried about in terms of competitors is other livestreamers with significant fanbases starting similar things (such as when Jet acted like a bitch because IP or someone else was doing something vaguely similar to Bloodgames)

Yeah had that same thought, he at one point in that stream did the Cole "Uh, hmm" kind of verbal pause and that's very Cole, but then he uses a lot of words that I don't think Cole would use (people change) but just in general it doesn't sounds like Cole's voice as I remember it. My take is it's an impersonator.
 
A normal season: Pay 120$ to have a season pass for 6 weeks. ($20/week)
Season 4: Pay 10$ to have a season pass for 2 weeks. ($5/week)
Ummmm akshualley...

The normal season pass was previously $60 for 6 months. The actual price of the pass has not changed, it just depends now on whether you perfer to be billed monthly or every 6 months. Now the XL pass, that fucker is up $10 for 6 months. It was previously $200 dollars for that period, which they changed to $35 a month. Do the math and that comes to $210, or $420 each year ($20 up). Anyway, only whales could justify getting an XL pass period because it doesn't do much outside of allowing you to create clans and making your text funny colors.
