With a (questionable) W from James Drake, how would you rate season 5 of Fishtank?

  • 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: 169 22.1%
  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 405 53.0%
  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

What a godawful lineup of freeloaders. I don't even count Ricky as a freeloader, just a visiting guest like Bliccy during Season 2. Letty wasn't even planned, she said she was asked to do it while visiting to break up the dogpile Dirench had assembled against Freddy and to correct the gender imbalance in the tank. Burt, Fatty, Bitchtank Dave, Frank, Alex Stein. This really was the most phoned in halfassed season they were planning to do. Even Bitchtank had more energy behind it because they were pulling randoms like Jacob or Pearl out of their ass.

Letty was good but the rest would have been godawful, perhaps it was best to just euthanize the season early rather than let it linger.
Deleted my post you're replying to cause late. I agree that they should be using new people for freeloaders. Someone said in a comment that it feels more like a celebrity guest line-up. Still, I think Burt and Dave would have been fun late stage characters. Dave is more of a background guy anyway.
 
I'm pretty anti-Burt but I think he'd actually make an okay freeloader if he was only there for a few days. Matan pretty easily goaded him into gay raping some guy on his podcast.

Imagine Burt being given a rapist serial killer acting role as a freeloader.
Burt would be great for Blood Games 2 especially if Jon is allowed back.

excited for this now
greg to the rescue
cast is zac (creatures long haired ginger friend)
Blacksmith and his wife (from bloodgames)
Trisha from s2

Oh now that I think about it, does that confirm no Bloodgames, if Blacksmith and his wife are on this?

Stream VOD:
  • Show is starting a bit earlier than intended, estimated date 07/19 - 07/27. Originally it was going to start 2 weeks later but with S4 dead Greg bumped it up.
  • Cast is Zac (Creature's friend, he was briefly on Streamstars), Trish, Blacksmith and Blacksmith's Wife
  • Frank will be there as long as the usual Greg orbiters who were there for seGREGated
  • "If you liked the vibe of Season 2, it's gonna feel like that" keep in mind Greg's personally-experienced vibe of S2 is wildly different from what we all saw
  • Greg says conGREGated will be more "story driven" with characters and "improvisational theatre"
  • Giant painting of Greg as a WW1 fighter pilot "this is gonna be a very big part of the set design"

  • conGREGated will have its own website for monetization
  • Will be streamed on Kick, Twitch and YouTube
  • Site will have interactive elements for the show's version of fishtoys, TTS and AI SFX
  • Greg's goal is $15k-$20k of revenue from this show (seGREGated did $13k according to him)
  • Greg spent $200 on furniture they intend to break
  • No last-minute S4 contestant addons, the cast is locked in already
  • Bex "is willing" to come one the show to do a DJ set, in a past stream Greg showed a Google doc with conGREGated ideas that had "Bex rave" as a donation goal
  • Every contestant will use the confessional once a day
  • Focus is more content than the social game
  • Planned start time is noon CST on the 19th
  • Planned daily hours for content are 12pm - 2am (CST), strict bedtime at 2am.
  • Greg goes out of his way to shit on Mauro and Jon, he still doesn't like them :story:
  • "over 70 ideas" for challenges for the show
  • Greg's original plan for the cast was Kato, Tai, Creature and Xavier
  • The winner gets a guaranteed $500 and it will go up if the show does well
  • "I'm getting people directly based off of entertainment value and nothing else" - Greg
  • Trailer coming soon-ish
  • The show is on a soundstage and they have "all the papers" so Greg is not worried about the show being shut down
  • "Interactions" (fishtoys) will be swapped out in real time in response to demand etc.
  • "Burt is most likely going to make an appearance" but definitely not for the whole time, maybe 2 or 3 days
  • Confessional confirmed, every contestant has to use it once a day
  • Main inspiration is S2 for the "vibes" which I think he means aesthetics and lots of drinking and Bloodgames for the story and character stuff
Unrelated pic of Greg and Trish.

Even before S4 started Greg had Blacksmith and Blacksmith's Wife penciled in for conGREGated. The plan was to do it during the 3-week break between S4 and BG2 so as to not conflict with anything FT related. Not saying this proves BG2 is still happening but even when BG2 was definitely 100% the plan they were still booked for conGREGated.
 
Alternate idea. Frame out the house inside a warehouse, do all the internal drywall, and finishing but don't do the exterior. This would allow for easy wiring of the house, as well as easily being able to set up little trap doors for the production to insert things into the room from the outside. You would have to make it very VERY fucking clear to contestants that they cannot kick holes in walls that are on the outer boundries of the house.
 
Here's some pics I had saved from S4...

I mean cladding the external would be piss easy. Literally just grab plywood and nail/screw it on. It wouldn't take complete amateurs more than a day for a single storey, just set up a mobile scaffold if it's 2 stories but it will take longer.
 
Imagine what they could do with prefabs on a commercial property. They could do layouts that make the S2 house look normal or maybe cram a bunch of prefabs together and make Famous Neighborhood.

Look at bens full facial hair. In the finale he's clean shaven. So I guess this proves that they were drinking and partying, told everyone to keep quiet, ran a token sale, and then posted the finale. Screenshot_20250701-214343.webp
