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

[I Will Stop.....in 3 min]

I saw several people talking about "writers" and how low effort the gaslighting "bits" for the idubz doc were.
This is a feature, not a bug.

Spoiler: Sam lore for FT fans

For those that aren't aware Sam LOVES shitty terrible worthless improvslop. He can't get enough of it. The Great War and Ghost Suckers are two shining examples.

The infamous Great War project he made was basically universally hated by everyone and very quickly forgotten. It was hours on end of Sam improv larping with the wiggers with no actual joke or punchline in sight. It's truly one of the biggest turds he's ever made.

Maybe someone else can find it but there's a clip from his podcast where he talked with Joeyy about The Great War reception which was really enlightening.

Paraphrasing here but it went something like this;
Joey: They just don't get it, like, it's supposed to be bad.
Sam: Yeah exactly and it was actually just really good though.

Sam just loves improvslop for some reason. He's good at writing funny bullet point ideas and he's at his best when he actually puts effort into them. Left to his own devices he would be content making the bum fights equivalent of improv comedy.

unpopular opinion: i actually like The Great War, theres like 2 parts of it that i really dont care for ( The helicopter one and the ending, im not sure), other than that, i think its pretty silly stuff to watch without hurry, it's pretty much proto-Fishtank Bloodgames (it has gimmick, the pretending to play as if they were kids, coming up with "powers" on the spot, Jan..., etc_)

They added gifting "subs" to the fishtank chat. The day before the RV trip someone gifted like 20 season passes, I actually happened to get a "season pass" for free.

Turns out it just expired. Gifting season passes is an actual scam I guess lol.

I was wrong

Yeah I could definitely see the inspiration Bloodgames took from it even in the few non paywalled clips I've seen of the Great War.

Yeah they last for like 3 days, no joke

I think the Vegas/ roadtrip idea would have worked much better if there was still something happening back at the mansion, like if Burt and Luke had gone on an expedition while Payton and Binx stayed with Kawan and the other famous house 2 people. There’s a small part of me that doesn’t want to shit all over the end of this season for taking a risk and being a new idea. But the execution has been ass, really stupid and sloppy

it's not a scam, it says it on the thing
it's also only like 20$ or w/e for 5 of them

I can never redeem mine in time because I'm not Simbal.

Honestly I'll take scuffed RV stream that is barely on over FH 2.0 any time

It probably costs production a lot less to operate.

Did anyone see that image of Binx sitting in the confessional? It was timestamped October 14, 2024. I wasn't able to grab a screen shot of it but it was on Director Cam.

 

[Cope&Sneed]

You do realize the reason people got pissed at him for saying that is because he just finished being a dirty kike and going behind Sam's back to get his shit taken off the air? "Yeah you should just go do your own thing, man" is decent advice in a vacuum, coming from the person that just booted you out of an entire industry and welded the door shut behind you, it's sleazy kike behavior.

This is Sam's version of events, which he provides no evidence of. When he called in to talk to Tim on the podcast he came in super hot but wound up flummoxed because it was just he said/he said. It's insane to think it all fell on Tim considering how edgy the content was, and I wouldn't doubt Sam's whole time at Adult Swim was being as difficult as possible and likely made a lot of enemies.

Don't think it means anything

I think if they somehow (low odds) pull off a spectacular ending, nobody will remember or care about the shit sandwich in between a great start and a great ending.

Praying for Clown Hotel ending

I dont know, but I would bet its just the wiggers. They have always been half baked.
On an episode of PGL, Sam brought out this word document of ideas for the idubbz doc. Everything was fucking hilarious. Then when the doc happened, almost none of that shit took place, and the stuff that did was so poorly executed its hard to even call it a bit.
I saw some interview with Jet post one of the FT seasons and he mentioned a word document that had ideas for the show. So Im pretty sure thats what they call writing. Just throw together a couple of lines on a word document and reference it every now and then.

I think the other aspect that always fucks them, is the only convincing person on that production is Ben. Sam and Jet have never successfully been able to gaslight anybody. They have rarely, if ever, gotten a fish to do what they wanted them to do. They are not the manipulators they style themselves as.

When shit unravels, or never takes off, Sam immediately sabotages the production. Its probably why Charls distanced himself from working with Sam for so long. Im sure whatever happened behind the scenes that ended their show could have been handled a myriad of different ways.

To get back on point, I dont think what the show needs is writers. They need a producer to lead them.

They could take that word doc one step further to make it a usable plan too. Make a spreadsheet, copy in certain ideas for certain days (this is where you'd ideally have a writer figuring out a good order of things but the challenges/show itself not necessarily escalating every step is part of Fishtank's X-factor imo), and then give a wigger or two the job to reference the planned ideas and prepare for the next day the night before, however big or small. A different wigger in charge of executing the plan each day would also help prevent burnout that happens like clockwork around week 4 (why the fuck don't they just shorten the show to 4 weeks) and help improve the production over time too as people gain experience. They'd probably still fuck it up by not changing things up last minute in response to whatever fish-led content or drama kicks off, or by overreacting to the fish like they did with Alex by revealing Wild Randy without enough coddle time to get him reinvested in the show after Jackie the night before. But at least there would always be something to look forward to, remember how excited people were for the RV before realizing that it was literally just going to be driving and not classic IP hell-house-on-wheels, when we were so back before slowly realizing it was still so over?

Can't believe how disappointing the RV ended up being, even something relatively normie-tier like Cow Chop was able to make more interesting content in an RV as the channel wound down. I know, pre-recorded and all that but still, I ended up re-watching all 6 videos/~1hr30m instead of finishing this post first and in comparison the Cucumberfeet or AB RV trip recaps are both shorter overall for a journey probably three times as long and lack content anyways. Was the slightest mess ever even made in the RV?

edit: and of course they're in Vegas, rip Clown Motel ending

I'm pretty sure it was more Vic Berger (I think that's his name?) who was responsible with Tim's blessing and support. I'm pretty sure Berger even confirmed as much. Tim still played a part in it.

 

[Halloween23]

They're currently on Freemont Street. It's known for being where the super freaks, homeless, and degenerates hang out.

 

[foam rolla]

Seeing Burt in public is like that 3D Simpsons episode where Homer goes into the real world.

 

[#lurker]

Now this is retarded.
Couldn't even get a working connection.
Then we missed the explanation of what they are to do.
And it looks like the bit is shit anyway, it involves pestering strangers, which doesn't work when you have a camera in peoples faces.
Days of driving and that's the best they can do.
