I've believed most of the accusations against alleged 'abusers' --- but I have a hard time believing these allegations against Nev. We've gotten to 'know him' so well over the past 5 or 6 years --- and he just doesn't seem like someone who would act the way these allegations claim. I really hope he can clear his name. Jeez, this makes me soooo sad!!!

It seemed like max and nev didn't change their shirts much last season. It was funny seeing the feminist t shirts.

The allegations don't surprise me at all. Nev does NOT have a good reputation, and this dates back to his college days. The allegations also include the fact that the person was also drugged and sexually assaulted by a producer of the show. The whole thing is gross, and I hope they get to the bottom of it.

Jeez, this makes me soooo sad!!! Prior to the current allegations, I had heard that he was a bad kid in high school - bullying and getting himself kicked out. Here's a little bit of info on him from Jewish Business News from 2014: jewishbusinessnews.com/2014/09/05/catfish-host-nev-schulman-bares-his-checkered-past-in-a-memoir/Catfish Host Nev Schulman Bares His Checkered Past in a MemoirNev Schulman, host of MTV’s Catfish focuses on bringing people together as a congenial relationship documentary maker. Who knew the man who makes people’s romantic internet dreams come true was a former hellraiser? In between his exploration of photography, dance and starting a production company with his brother Ariel, Nev’s memoir tells of stealing, drug dealing and various forms of bad behavior. No judgement is intended; it is quite clear he turned himself around and now has the desire to reveal all about his troubled teenage years. “My real problem was stealing, ” confesses Nev. He stole DVDs from Tower records, booze from restaurants and clothing from Ralph Lauren. He even did some drug dealing and even took a dump in his school cafeteria’s cereal dispenser. Nev even totaled a few cars and admits it is a “wonder he is still alive.” Perhaps his own dissolute youth is partial inspiration for his desire to help young people. He is a founding member of the Young Leadership Committee for the youth organization “Leave Out Violence.”

Wow! I must be the world's WORST judge of character, cause I've been watching Nev on 'Catfish' for the last 5 or so years, and never once saw any hint of his dark side. In fact, just the opposite. I always saw him as a super sweet, kind of goofy, naive kinda guy. And I always felt a little sorry for him, and was overjoyed when he met his new wife, and they had their baby girl.
Now I just feel really sad about this whole situation. Darn!!!

I am not doubting this happened but what is really going to happen 13 yrs later. The statue of limitations has to have expired on an assault case by now. All that is going to happen is that Nev will be tried in the Court of Social Media.

That's probably true, Bearcata, but being tried in the Court of Social Media is enough to get the abuser's show cancelled! And that's a pretty big deal.
Plus, now that there's been an avalanche of accusations against various abusers, it seems like once the first person comes out and makes a claim against someone, it seems to be enough to encourage other victims to come forward as well. So maybe the original person didn't have a claim that was within the statute of limitations, other victims might be luckier.

Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of false accusations coming out as well in general.

That's interesting. So, they're separate programs, but apparently their production is related. The article says that the "Catfish Picture Company" is involved in the production, as is Ariel Schulman, who is Nev's brother (who Nev produced the ORIGINAL Catfish movie with). Glad it's all in the family, but for me, if there's no Nev or Max, I'm not all that interested in seeing the show. Especially since Charlemagne Tha God co-hosted an episode or two of Catfish, and I wasn't particularly impressed. I'll check out the 1st episode though.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! MAX, DON'T GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T YOU DO BOTH???? "It's time: Max Joseph announces his departure from Catfish after seven seasons as he pursues filmmaking"www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6040671/Max-Joseph-announces-departure-Catfish-six-years-hosting-MTV-show.htmlFrom Max's Instagram @maxjoseph www.instagram.com/maxjoseph/ maxjoseph Hey guys, the time has come, sadly, for me to move on from Catfish. Working on this show for the last seven years has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I’ve learned a lot about myself, my country and human nature in general. Nev and I have become brothers and our bromance has blossomed before your eyes. For a while now I have been straddling two careers as TV host and filmmaker and, while this level of busy-ness is a dream come true, my life can no longer sustain it. With Catfish still going strong after 7 seasons, 115 episodes, 31 specials and showing no sign of slowing down, I feel it is finally the time for me to make my exit. Although I have a heavy heart, I am also excited for everything that’s to come—for myself, for Nev, for our crew and for the show. Thank you for watching, thank you for the love, for the memories, and the memes. Don’t be a stranger. You know where to find me. ❤️ It really was a fucking blast and I am eternally grateful for every second of it. ps, my final episode will air on 8/22

I enjoy Nev's wife on the show. She's very smart, and has a really nice, friendly way with the person who's been Catfished --- and even sometimes with the Catfish himself/herself. And she often comes up with some really good insights. I think she'd be a great partner for the show -- but she probably wouldn't want to be on it full time.

Last night's CATFISH with Laura I found annoying. Very annoying. Laura cut off Nev all.of.the.time.  Nev has a very different personality then Laura. Nev is very calm, he listens so well, he lets people talk. YET Laura would either finish all Nev's sentences or while he is talking to someone, she jumps in and cuts him off. Now that Max is gone, I wish Nev would go back to celebrity guest hosts. Pleaseeee.
