🐟 Fishtank Sam Hyde's Fishtank.live General - Jet Neptune's Little House of Horrors

[stacks__]

I seriously doubt there were any plans for Brian initially. I remember Jet said he had thought his audition was funny so he chose him, which is another sign of Jets horrible wigger taste.

 

[vanyatravnikov]

Watching Brians audition and him saying his life is fucked up and he's down to do anything for the money makes it even clearer to me eliminating him was a stupid idea. Like I said before he would have stayed as long as they needed him unlike half of the other fish who left in the first two weeks.

Honestly, I think they eliminated Brian because he would've been desperate enough (and capable) to actually fuck TJ over in the late game. That would have ruined the artificial arc they had been setting up.

Just a silly photo shoot idea. Definitely not creepy or weird at all.

His childhood was taken by the mormons. He may be a autistic tard stuck in his teenage years (edgelord, anger issues), but at least he's not MJ.

EDIT: Well, not yet at least.

Reminds me of Jon's photo shoot.
With the autism sign pic and the naked pic.

Brian audition

Christ, he was doing the pity shit even in the interview? I was hoping it was like 90% a bit on the show

 

[The Tall Man]

Mind listing these out? I've forgotten most of the early season stuff.

The first lead by Brian
Then he joined the Trish and Taylor mean girl club
Then he joined the Trish and Brittany mean girl club 2
The final one was TJ and Shinji

These are the ones I am certain about. TJ was just a follower during the first three, he lead the last one with Shinji.

It just shows what bad character TJ has, lying so brazenly about trying to be Tay's friend, claiming to have been always nice to her, and then pretending Tay backstabbed him.
It's also funny that he only started calling Tay a betrayer after she called him out on his weak Lubecooch defense.
He also called Tay schizo for carrying her belonging with her, when he himself was in the mean girl meeting plotting to fuck with Tay's personal stuff.

I mean Taylor also auditioned for the show as contestant too IIRC and she didn't know she will be on the show as freeloader

wow, what a waste of who could've been a good contestant, and a plushie/simp magnet. They were truly desperate after losing Cole, they used all the ammo they had left; and they let her go to save the script mc. Stupid decisions after stupid decisions to cover for stupid decisions; this line sums up s2.

The show would have been a lot better had Taylor and Brittany been contestants in place of Meg and JC. Even Oliver would have been a good fit to replace that one black guy that they'd lined up who dipped last minute.

On the first or second day, when they made each of the guys pick the girl they're most attracted to and talk to them alone, TJ picked Tayleigh and she was cold and stiff, rejected him so obviously that even a sperg like TJ couldn't get any mixed messages. I suspect he secretly held a grudge over that all the way to the end.

Yeah, I think it was day 4 or 5 when they lost Cole, JC and Summer, and Meg would leave soon after. That was the perfect moment to add all those freeloaders as contestants, nobody would mind since it's so early in the show; and I believe there were a lot of people asking for that at that point (some even asking for the entire group to be replaced). I can only guess Goran didn't want to do it either cause new contestants would mess with his script and pose a threat to his mc, or his ego wouldn't let him do anything that would imply admitting to a mistake.

I really don't get this idea Jet has of writing the show's "script" before it even fucking started, or sticking to it when it's painfully obvious how inorganic and fake it is.

Last season's Josie vs Letty finale was organic and made total sense since Josie was the fan favorite and the most wholesome person in the house, while Letty was gossipy and mischievous, and played a central role in the show's most memorable parts, like the baby shaking situation or Jon's meltdown over his Bible being destroyed.

To be fair, I don't think they used any script (or plan) for this season at all, hence why they also made fun of this concept.
A script would require effort, clear planning and resolutions to act on key points and bring forth an intended outcome. The show was too inconsistent for that to actually apply and given all possible liabilities they got exposed to, In the end they might really wish they had a script to begin with.

Rather, my perspective is that production (particularly Jet) behaved most of the time as if out of a teenage angst. When they noticed something going on that they didn't like, they acted through TTS or directly intervened to change it. They picked favorites, and reacted childishly whenever they got cornered or outsmarted.
It's normal to assume that the show had a predefined "winner", as it happens in common TV reality shows, but I disagree here.
I think that because of the success of S1 and of their affiliation with Sam, the wiggers, thinking they are geniuses of improv comedy making history (and enhancing culture) saw themselves as driving forces of "content" and engagement, and that the show rested mainly on their (conceited) decisions and craft to make the best moments happen, not on the fish.

If you're talking about the beginning of the show, I would disagree a bit. JC and Brian were very good contestants when put in ideal situations or simply nudged a bit by production. JC was a central figure to the chip stealing plot line. That involved the entire house and is from what I can tell remembered very fondly as one of the peaks of the season.

It's a bit weird with Brian. After Cole was eliminated it was like production went entirely hands off for a decent portion of time resulting in fish just sitting on their asses no doing anything because those that remained (with the exception of Jimmy) weren't content drivers. The only fish they decided to put all their money on was TJ, which in hindsight was a very bad investment. I think if they pushed for Brian to be a villain he would have been great. Nobody liked Brian, and a lot of people actively enjoyed seeing him fail and get screwed with. Good villain material. Instead they insisted on pushing the CK, Trish and Brian love triangle stuff for like three days straight.

I do agree that either Taylor or Brit would have been wonderful replacements for JC and Meg after they left. If Taylor was introduced a bit earlier then her entire character wouldn't have been centered around TJ. Her literal existence on the show was to be a part of TJ's character development, and then be eliminated. That idea fell flat on its face and went practically nowhere. They would've made a ton more on plushies too.

I personally think they were scripting it as they went along. They just weren't the elite puppet masters they convinced themselves of being.

I feel like this confirms my thoughts. They had some ideas in mind with where they wanted things to go and when they realized that the fish were capable of autonomy they had to squash it. It really seemed like they didn't really want the fish to be themselves, but rather, they wanted them to be whatever production wanted them to be. I don't know what it is, but it just seems like the wigger crew can't stand it when someone is funnier than them.

I also agree that there probably wasn't a predefined winner at the beginning, but they started to rig the game when they nailed down roughly what they wanted to have happen to the contestants. This is where we start seeing their direct intervention in otherwise natural events so that this story could be told.

and my Taylor gooning folder would have been triple the size than it is now
another missed opportunity by productions many such cases

 

[Ancient Pioneer]

Taylor stated that she flat out would have left the moment the bathroom cameras went online, Britney also struggled with them and its largely why she left as well. Given Tayleigh's repeated exposures over the course of the show I could say that Taylor's viewpoint that the bathroom cameras being creepy and nothing but trouble were vindicated. Something more akin to the confessional from S1 but at a high angle facing downward towards the door would have been far better than the creep shit in S2. Taylor and Britney would have just left at a later date than Megan or JC but the problem still would have been producer fuckups.

 

[Aidan]

Was there anything gained from having bathroom cameras? The occasional "What's X up to in there?" I recall Jet really playing up the bathroom cams leading up to the season, wonder why he was so excited for them.

I find the whole idea of bathroom cameras really fucking perverse. Letty was dealing with her psycho ex spreading revenge porn of her last season and still has people spreading it, so what does Neptune Kubrick do? Give every creep and weirdo on the internet ammunition to fuck with any female on the show after it wraps up. You need to give the fish some form of release/break from the cameras, there's literally no need to show us TJ wiping his ass after taking a shit.
