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

[The Real Taylor Swift]

i do believe it’s over and i dont think theres more, the only schizo part i agree with is the point that: the major twist and the reason the season pass is waaaay lower now is the same: they wanted and planned to end this season faster.

I don't think theres more either, I just also don't believe this is all incompetency or whatever the commentary class is chirping about. There was clearly a plan going into S4 and it more or less worked out as intended. I believe this was all a set up to end the "Rhode Island/Massachusetts Era" of Fishtank

 

[EenGevolg]

Didn't some guy claiming to be a leaker before the start of the season say that the point of the season is to take the piss out of the audience? How much of what he said ended up happening?

Yeah the wiggers aren't notoriously inept.

 

[The Real Taylor Swift]

Yeah the wiggers aren't notoriously inept.

It's not a binary choice. You can believe they are inept and also recognize there was too many coincidences and happenstance this season to chalk it up entirely to that

 

[Kitty Cat Man]

Yeah the wiggers aren't notoriously inept.

they're very practically inept and very conceptually competent. they can throw together the famous house rugpull and were doing some cool shit with the apocalyptic cult shit in S2 that ultimately led to the swamp olympics kino(even though all it amounted to was really good flavor text for an overall lackluster season).
but also jet likes doordash and weed too much to actually go outside the basement and Make Shit Happen. jet has always been playing with "kid gloves" on, if im right about the rugpull theory it's also a bit of a humiliation ritual for jet lmao

The cult stuff fell apart in season 2.

 

[The Real Taylor Swift]

Yeah because the room temp IQ cast whos favorite phrase was "production told me" couldn't keep the kayfabe going. Are we forgetting that Sam tried in earnest to get TJ into it and he just sat there slack jawed?

 

[(Physiognamy Czech)]

Yeah the wiggers aren't notoriously inept.

I think the wiggers generally get more shit than they deserve when it comes to product quality. This is a massive project with a lot of overhead. They do cut a lot of corners and cop out by improvising and slapping shit together, but that is unironically also part of the charm of the show. Not to say "it's shit on purpose so it's good" but all things considered they're making a completely unique product and all of you faggots who shit on them (myself included) will continue watching. I genuinely do love the show.

The monetization side of things on the other hand is some true wigger shit.

It's the same cost per month, they just changed it from a 6 month sub to a monthly sub.

Re: wigger incompetence, here's what people are calling incompetence:

* Not expecting the local gov't to criminally charge the S1 homeowner with "unlicensed lodging"
* Not expecting the local gov't to condemn the S2 house because they put mattresses in the basement (this is literally what happened)

"But they should have used a commercial space!" maybe, but it probably wouldn't have made a difference. Once they get doxed and the 911 calls start rolling in, the local gov't can find ways to get them out, no matter where they are. It's a commercial space but you put beds in it? That makes it a domicile now, subject to regulations X Y Z, you're in violation of Y so we're shutting the building down.

I keep seeing people whining about "filming permits" but the things that shut them down were wholly unrelated to a lack of filming permits.

 

[The Real Taylor Swift]

Forget my previous theories, I like this one the most now because its much funnier if true

 

[Rolex]

The ineptitude argument against the wiggers is a little unfair. It's not that they are particularly incompetent, it's that they're zoomers. They don't know how to take a project of this scale seriously enough to complete it.
Millennials may be whiny and gay sometimes but we still have some of that Gen X sturdiness. We were raised by boomers and expected to take everything seriously. Zoomers have no such constraint. They're often funnier but they lack drive past the halfway point of any given task because it's not considered "cool" to put any more effort in.
They just need someone a bit older to keep them on track on the planning and production end. I don't think Sam is really that involved in any way other than scripting, creativity, and finances. He's certainly not out there in the trenches managing the whole thing.

 

[Kitty Cat Man]

The cult stuff fell apart in season 2.

Yes, largely because of practical ineptitude on the part of the wiggers. It was a cool idea, the execution just fell off entirely. Big theme in fishtank that fucks up the "plot" every time.

If Jet had locked the fuck in and planned rules around the cult like say for example "if production tells you to do something, and you do it, you must commit to the bit or be eliminated" instead of just conceptualizing it in between bong rips and McD's runs like "well...we're gonna have this creepy room in the attic... and it's gonna be kinda like a doomsday cult... and it's gonna be like the dharma initiative.. and we're gonna make the fish workout and chant shit.. and we're gonna tell the ones we like they gotta join to win.. and yeah im sure sam can figure this out if i make a few bumpers and logos in photoshop anyway im high lol lets get food guys" - it might've actually been something

Same with the FH2 gaslight in S3 being cucked by fish not staying in fucking character and voting cucking any and all aggression making the original fish targets in their own tank. If jet had locked in on gamecraft instead of just vague(but low key genius) conceptualizations it could've possibly been the best content in fishtank history.

sorry to pop the schizo bubble, but how would you explain Bloodgames likely being cancelled? they teased it for weeks and weeks, did all that preparation, only to cancel it? all of this just to say "haha we pranked our customers"? yeah i dont buy it.

It is not a real leak.

I think a lot of the cult stuff in season 2 died from miscommunication between Jet and Sam. Jet pushing the pace too fast, not letting things simmer. Sam was too out-of-the-loop.

Either A. Its not really cancelled or B. They haven't been working on it for a while and legal challenges popped up in the middle of it preventing them from moving forward and that's how we got here

 

[The Rational Skeptic]

Spent a while digging and found out some clarifying information.

As we know, the homeowners for the s1 house are Zi Qian and Jun Zhang, who are father and son. Not sure the extent of which these two have been discussed in the community, but these guys are rich as fuck and do fucked up shit because they can. They were both named in a lawsuit, Fun City Trampoline Park LLC v. 1275 Fall River Ave LLC et al. In short, they're getting heat for pretty much taking a trampoline park business right out from under tenants of their property and making it their own. Alongside that, it appears Jun Zhang has other ongoing civil cases regarding unpaid wages, labor laws, etc. He does have a criminal record as well. There's even a reddit snark page for the daughter/sister of the two, Mei. This family is facing a ton of heat in the courts already, and when the police came to the s1 home the last time, some 33 year old from Cedar Rapids was given a summons arrest for breaking and entering and assault. I don't know if this was mentioned anywhere either, but it's all public record if you look up the house address. That being said, with what happened at the house regarding the B&E charge along with the permit issues on the wigger side and the behaviors/ pre-existing legal issues of the homeowners, it's fair to assume Zhang(s) probably told them they had to go because they couldn't handle another legal matter and especially couldn't handle being associated with the wigger crew any longer as it would make them look that much worse in the public eye.

As for the second house, it would be safe to assume that the governments of these places are working alongside each other (due to the shitstorm they faced/are facing, such as the Town Hall meeting that already exacerbated concerns about the show and endless complaints from residents) to try and put a stop to the show considering how quickly they got kicked out. The people in charge probably got wind of them going back to that house in one way or another and began preparing to get it shut down before they even began streaming there this season.

 

[Look At You]

Does the Season 3 House being slashed mean that Xavier has been evicted off the property? Where will his journey take him now? He's been bumming around that place for months by now. Hope he ends up somewhere good.

 

[BullfrogBill]

The show doesn't need Sam. People watch and spent money without him present most of the time and him sitting there just on his laptop doing jackshit in relation to the show sure isn't content.

Reality game shows switch their hosts all the time, they very rarely survive from doing so. It almost always ends up getting the show cancelled because people stop caring really quickly. When The Apprentice changed hosts from Donald Trump to Arnold Schwarzenegger the show was cancelled almost immediately. When Fear Factor switched hosts from Joe Rogan to Ludacris the show was cancelled almost immediately. People lost interest in those shows extremely quick because the personality behind the hosts changed the whole vibe of the shows.

I know I sure as fuck don't watch this show for Jet Neptune, so if Sam left the show I would 100% lose all interest. Imagine watching Hell's Kitchen without Gordon Ramsey, it would be retarded to even consider such a thing.

That's pretty interesting, but could you provide proof with archives? This thread should provide you with all the information to do it yourself.

Xavier will roam the post-nuclear wastelands searching for anime to goon to and blades to collect until agents from Facility X contact him with a very important mission.
