  • 1 Star — Absolute disaster. Unwatchable, boring, production fucked it up bad, the fish were lame

    Votes: 56 7.3%
  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 87 11.4%
  • 3 Stars — Average. Solid entertainment in spots, some good chaos and crashouts, but nothing special

    Votes: 170 22.2%
  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 405 52.9%
  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

The last few days were really rough, I'm so glad they pulled off such a great ending! Pretty much a happy ending all around and it was nice to see the girls smiling at the end after what they went through in the Cell. It was nice to have a wholesome ending.

Kind of surprised so many people thought Sam actually hated Letty. I think he might have found her annoying at first but I think he was impressed by the way she bounced off him whenever he'd pick on her. They had great comedic chemistry together. I always thought she and Vance were his favorites.

It's been fun kiwis, this was my favorite fishtank hangout by far, thanks to all the paypiggies who shared the wealth and clipped from the archives for us and the people who did daily rundowns!
 
If they fix some things for season 2 I think Jet and Sam have struck gold. They seem to have a good eye for talent which is the hardest part they just need to make sure the contest ideas are fully baked.
 
I wish Josie would have lost, but the willy wonka ending was pretty good. Highlight was Jet convincing fatass that he had to go and speak on Josies behalf.

My prediction for season 2 is they'll take advice from the plethora of backseat producers and ruin the show.

Jet, Ben, whoever's reading this, backseat producer here, I got a big idea for ya. Know how you had random ecelebs in there for a while? Next time bring Vinny Vinesauce in but he's dressed up and acting like ZZ Top, his job is to make all the fish play Lego Rock Band for 12 hours straight no stopping while he just sings random demented things in the garage to cause the chat to fight over which camera to sit on. 20 billion lebanese pound idea, roll with it and the viewers roll in too.
 
Despite the Hell House aspect coming in stronger as time went on this whole ending was....oddly wholesome?
I'm just happy that both finalists walked away with something after all the shit they had to deal with over the last 6 weeks.
 
Now that the show is over I wanted to share my top 3 most uncomfortable and insane moments of the show.
Chris having a massive meltdown crying and screaming at Sylvia the first night frank was there. I watched this live and it was the most surreal and nightmarish thing I've ever seen online. Full stop.
Sam getting furious at Jon for threatening to tear up Letty's passport
Sam mocking Simmons for being a pedophile to his face

If you guys have any more moments like this @ me
 
Actually you're still wrong.

I finally found that tweet earlier where betty mentioned having AVPD, here you go.

The armchair psych shit was always annoying to me. I dont think any of them have any PD, I think most people are just kind of nuts and some people let it show more. Hell people who do have problems do tend to learn to hide it.

Betty probably is nuts but I think the Letty thing in particular was because of her photo in the beginning and people going 'crazy eyes' and doing that internet shit about crazy girls and crazy pussy or whatever, dont fall for it shit, because she was mugging the camera. And I guess after a while of her being 'mean' people started taking it seriously, but idk, I have a lot of thoughts about it but I think internet armchair psych shit is always kind of dumb. BPD also stands for bipolar anyway too.

She was more like the girl next door, fun, 'wild' girl but anyone could look at her and see she wasnt any more nuts than anyone else, she had spirit and that photo was kind of a mask or a gag. She was the only one who came in with any weapons and knew the rules.

I'm honestly surprised this lasted 6 days, let alone 6 weeks.
I hope they do actually do a season 2. I think they could definitely do it better, now that its a success they will probably be more willing to invest into it and put more time into planning.

Heres my review of the show:
It really did start to fall apart at the end when they were just trying to figure out what the fuck to do, and the last 'challenge' of them staying in B2 was the most boring part of the show overall.

IMO the most important thing they need is to find better fish. Nearly all the fish (except letty, jon and occasionally damiel) they had this time were 0-charisma, 0-spine autists that were totally overshadowed by the freeloaders, presenters and the various challenges. They could not provide any content by themselves.
Don't get me wrong, they had their moments, but thats the problem. "moments" is not enough for a 6 week 24/7 show.

Chris is more like what I would want from a Fish. Even though he was hated by lots of people, including the other fish, he's a complete retard subhuman flesh-golem who literally could not stop involving himself with the other fish and humiliating himself. The night where he actually thought he was gonna get laid by that fat black hooker, only to be rejected and spend half an hour seething was excellent.

If we only had vance, josie, mauro etc, they would just stick to themselves the entire time and avoid each other and do fuck all. even if one guy was messing with them, they would just do nothing except whine a bit later.

They need more charismatic, schizo retards who are also less camera shy and reserved (what the fuck was josie even doing there? she did nearly nothing)

And obviously the challenges themselves need to be improved and they need to actually let the contestants scheme and try to fuck eachother over.
If more shit happened the viewer retention might have been better.

The fishtoys were also a complete joke. Did they ever even use half of them? I remember most of them being blanked out the whole time before being removed outright. Scream at Letty, Lootcrate, Snacks and Plushies were the only ones I ever saw used.

It would also be cool if they did some more with sets, like the camping challenge, or even get their own set for the show (massive doubt they would do that though).

Last thing I think they should do is their own official "clips" or recaps, which they could do weekly or daily. That would include some footage they record with the cams or even some of the paypig only content. It would give people more of a chance to catch up with the show and to get into it.

+ Chris' true form

The hooker night (Day 34 I think?) is my personal favorite of all the nights in the Fish Tank. Just great vibes and never would have happened without Chris. Chris was made for a reality show and was by far the best freeloader.

If anyone has complaints or ideas about how to improve the next season, you should definitely reply to Sam's tweet asking for feedback. It's very likely someone involved with the production will actually read your reply and entirely possible they'll take your suggestions.
