Catfish

On the Season 4 premiere of MTV’s Catfish, Nev heads out to the good ol’ town of Milwaukee, WI. Now I’m not sure if this is the best recognition for Wisconsin but hey, it puts the state on the radar. Since Max was busy filming a movie with Zac Efron while the shooting for Catfish began, Nev enlisted some celebrity backup for the first five episodes. On this episode, Nev has recruited the help of radio and TV personality Charlamagne. Since Charlamagne is a huge fan of the show, he knows how crazy these investigations can get and can’t wait […]

The Season 3 finale of Catfish ended with an episode unlike the others. The story begins with Bianca, who lives in North Carolina, and her 5-month relationship with Brogan through Facebook. Both ladies are into body modification and Bianca is head over heels for Brogan’s tattoo artwork and piercings. Bianca never thought of asking Brogan to video chat because she always thought of it as an awkward ordeal herself. However, once Bianca got over that mindset and asked Brogan to video chat with her, Brogan magically disappeared and deactivated her Facebook account. While Bianca tried her best at moving forward […]

Last night’s episode of MTV’s Catfish was a nice change from the recent scandals involving the catfish trying to become famous. The story starts out with Jeff, 26, from Florida who is in the Navy. One day, he got a message from a girl named Megan, 25, who apologized for accidentally adding him. The conversation went from them talking about their mutual love for Siberian Huskies to exchanging phone numbers. After talking to Megan for almost a year, Jeff needs Nev and Max’s help to decide whether or not he should reenlist or move to Texas to be closer to Megan. […]

Last night’s episode of Catfish Season 3 ended with a twist no one could have seen coming. It all started when Miranda, 21, started talking to Cameryn in 2011. In her email to Nev and Max, she mentions that she was never suspicious of Cameryn until she took a trip from her home in Minnesota to his home in California. It was then when Miranda started catching Cameryn in his lies and excuses of not having a working webcam or not being able to meet up due to family emergencies or car issues. While the two were on good terms, […]

On Season 3 episode 7 of MTV’s Catfish, viewers gained hope once again for the idea of a successful online relationship. This particular relationship started so long ago that the two people involved started talking on Myspace — Yes, I know, Myspace. — when Solana, from Delaware, was only fourteen. The now eighteen-year-old Solana explains that she met Elijah, now 20 and living in Minnesota, on Myspace and developed a deep connection with him, confiding in him during her parents’ divorce. However this encouraging friend who later turned into a boyfriend wasn’t always there to help her — and one day, his account was deactivated. After two […]

MTV’s Catfish season 3 episode 6, took the idea of trolling to a whole new dimension.

Social media is the backbone of every episode of MTV’s Catfish; however, last night’s episode focused solely on Twitter.  And what a tale it was.

She is asking for Nev and Max’s help in finding out the truth behind one of her loyal fans whom she met through Twitter. She explains that she had been talking to Sammie for about two years due to her constant support of Tracie and her new independent film, Raze. Tracie explains that her connection with Sammie was […]
