lmao yeah jimmy, the paragon of sensible thinking and reasonable thought process. Tayleigh thtrowing a fit over xavier is stupid as fuck to the viewer as it was to the participants.
Every time Jon is on the show I'm amazed he hasn't accidentally killed himself yet. Super ego combined with autistic body coordination = early death.
Argued by dumb people, the reason the second week wasn't as good is because the NPC cast was sick with the stomach virus that Tay had during Day 2 and they weren't around to do their duties as NPC and Vampires at night so Jet just tossed them up onto the tower as an improvised cell until the NPCs were healthy enough to go back to doing their work. Season 2 and Season 3 were equally trashed by illness. Covid broke out during Season 2 between Day 5 when Cole, Megan and Tay started showing symptoms and persisted all the way until around Day 17 when Jimmy and Shinji had it, which is regarded as the weak point in the season. Season 3 outright died when Sam came in with covid a few days before Thanksgiving and got everyone sick leading Jet and Ben to basically abandon the season and had Sam come up with some lame excuse about "zoning issues" because he was unaware Jet already said the real reason in the chase car camera.
The show after day 33 (thanksgiving) simply wasn't Fishtank anymore. It became a mediocre IP2 clone with serious connection issues. There were still some hilarious moments like Luke mocking that Indian guy asking for help with his phone in Vegas but the show never ever recovered. It was over the day they left the famous house.
Yes nothing Xavier said or did to Tayleigh was as brutal as what he said to Letty.
Holy shit LMAO how have I never seen this clip before? I fucking love Jan.
That fucking laugh track SFX when Xavier makes the cutting joke.
I like the one where he says something like "You are far too unatractive to be saying things like that"
Can you do Fatty also? They must have some ogre base body in Heroforge.
I plan on doing him, the Goblin and Gregg after I finish the main cast.
Two things can be true at the same time. Both the abandonment of Tayleigh's arc with Xavier because of her overreaction and the cast getting the flu would be contributing factors to a decline. You cannot remove a major arc that's part of the lore being written by Xavier and Sodaman and not expect some decline in content afterwards. There's no need to sweep for Tayleigh so hard man.
To me the huge gap in what was expected with Bloodgames from the season 1 fish and season 2 fish is something incredibly interesting, in how Letty, Vance and Jon also seemed to not know what was going to happen but where very chill and ready for whatever may happen, but the season 2 fish both fully expected to experience full on hell house in the woods, and seemed to always expecting the other shoe to drop. The morale right off the get go was super low from both Tayleigh and jimmy, and stayed pretty low throughout especially with Tayleigh. They where also a lot more insular than the season 1 fish and mostly only interacted with each other like some kind of trauma bonding.
So when Letty asks jimmy why he was kicked off season 2, and his response is to name drop her boyfriend and threaten to say her real name is "Protecting himself"? Jimmy really proved what a loser he was by doing that, and also threatening creature for getting Tayleigh killed off(she didn't but jimmy did not know that), and threatening Vance for teasing him about his crush on creature by threatening to name drop his ex girlfriend who he was broken up with because of fan harassment, and even threatening fatty with some info he supposedly got from an ex friend of his he had been in contact with, jimmy was just protecting himself. Good to know. The fact that jimmy would go onto fishtank, the prank get made fun of show, with dirt on literally everyone he could get dirt on to try to intimidate them whenever he felt threatened is the most loser shit ever.
From what i remembering hearing a lot of it also came down to Jons exit, as through that a lot of their plans awry and they had to adapt and rewrite several things to accommodate that. they also pulled them all off the tower and had them off cameras and we later learned that was to ask them all if they could stay a third week, but i think like half them said they couldn't so they just kinda improvised the ending, was still really good IMO but there where like 2-3 days near the end of them not doing much.
