Sure I wish there were more resolutions and answers but I enjoyed the ride, great podcast 💜

I find it so strange that incredibly boring Tannis was given this many episodes when they could have given an effort to Rabbits. It had great potential. But nope…here’s Tannis. Ugh!!

It’s hard to imagine enduring this for more than a couple episodes, but it’s drug on for six seasons! It’s a slow moving even when I listened and triple speed. The characters are annoying more than interesting. Just a waste of time!

Seeking Tanis season 6. Listener available.

Mk and nick are really frustrating to listen to. Mk is way to sarcastic and does all the hacker tropes “hacking the mainframe” type stuff. Nick is so dumb like impossibly dumb. In season 3 he has experienced dozens of supernatural events and recorded them on tape and he’s all “I’m starting to think that maybe there is something strange going on in these woods”. So ya other than that it’s a well made show

I enjoy the storyline and how it blurs between fiction and real events, but the interaction between Nick and MK are painful to listen to.

v the microdot contains a clue .

Amazing show. Winding paths and half truths. Love it!

Every character on this podcast is mind-numbingly annoying. Nic is the biggest beta male to walk the earth. 75% of his dialogue consists of one-word questions that repeat a word someone else just said. MK is just insufferable. Everyone is cryptic about everything. It gets really old really fast.

I loved Black Tapes, and it ended at the climax. I loved The Last Movie, it ended at the climax. I was so hoping that with five whole seasons this would be a complete story- once again, it ended at the climax. I'm sorry, but screw you, PNWS.

Look, I *love* Tanis and all the PNWS shows. I listen to all of them about once a year. It’s immersive, full of mystery, great sound design. But I think Terry Miles has a serious case of the George RR Martins. As far as I’m aware, he’s got plans for at least one more season and yet! Other podcasts (they’re good, hard to be mad about them)! Two books! Plans, at one point anyways, for a Black Tapes show! Allllll these other projects and four years later, still no season six! Still hoping to venture back into those mysterious woods near Seattle…

MK makes this unlistenable

Found this in a really tanis way - word of mouth - found it hard to get into, but once I did, dang.

Epic

Basically Every Episode: "I found something" "Oh?" "Yeah, you're gonna want to know what it is." *pause* "What is it?" *pause* "Tesla Nova." "...what about Tesla Nova?" *pause* "It's not them." "No?" "No." *pause* "Who is it?" "I don't have much time. It's coming." *nothing happens* FIN. If this were a movie or tv show it would be a late night low-budget SyFy special meant to fill out the 2-3am slot. The concept and attention to detail is GREAT, I’m so here for the moody-ness and mystery—but the writing and voice acting is absolutely mind numbing. I've kept up through the second season but I can't keep going anymore, it's literally like pulling teeth out of a plot line. Land the plane, guys. Nick Silver's utter lack of emotive response in even the most dire situations makes everything feel benign, Cameron Ellis pretty much has the charm of an automated phone menu, and MK is the only actor who actually adds some personality to the show, though she's often held back by the poor dialogue and obnoxious pacing. GUYS. Dragging a 1 minute conversation by its bleeding fingernails for 10…damn…minutes is NOT intrigue!! It’s just bad writing. Update: Oh God it got worse. Two more seasons have been released since I wrote my last review and I actually removed my second star. I sped through the first two seasons to get caught up and then tried to make it through season 3. Couldn’t finish. For everyone rating this 5 stars I genuinely can’t fathom your low bar. There are great fiction podcasts out there, this isn’t one of them y’all. Update again: Apparently they’ve ghosted their listener base, according to reviews. I quit a while ago and came back years later to see if they finally laid that poor, poor plot to rest for good. Maybe even listen to the last couple episodes of the show because…they had to have finished it by now right? Nope on a rope. They finally quit. Excellent choice. 5 Stars.

I anxiously wait for every new episode. Love this "docudrama" genre and Tanis is far and away the best. Please come back

Mad at Terry about Season 6. Also mad about The Black Tapes. »NS: You know, you could go and listen to Rabbits maybe, in the meantime?« Ok, yes. Might be a good idea… Ok, I’m back. Wait, still no season 6? »NS: Nope. Soory aboot that. Have any thoughts to share about Rabbits?« Rabbits is good. Better than good actually. Is lgood still 3 out of 5 stars on the 5 star rating scale? Anyway I felt like I was cheating on Tannis with Rabbits after the third episode. Cheating in a totally acceptable PNW-ENM sort of way though. »NS: I see. So I’ve been tr…”«j CD Tannis would be fine with me falling asleep listening to Rabbits, because Tannis is what sustains me. Rabbits is Little Debbie snack cakes. You love them, but they’re cheap and you know can’t eat them every day. Tannis is the hot and healthy dinner you come back to every night because you want to, not just because you’re hungry and you’ve been priced out of the glorious kingdom of organic kale and Marionberries.

I am under the age of 15 and I love the podcast actually I believe that the podcast is a good way to expand my vocabulary and have a better imagination but it’s a fun story too love it

Really enjoying the world and characters of this. Constant burn of mystery and escalation.

I’m most disappointed that it’s been over 1 1/2 years since the last episode. What happened?! I patiently sent my money off to Patreon each month but I’m guessing that other podcasts and book deals became more important. The initial storyline was excellent but by season 4, the writing was mostly phoned in. Someone joked that it became Nic in the woods, an ad for Square Space, Nic in a flotation tank, end of episode. So the fourth star is more for what might have been.

A story that can take you away for a while. There are just a couple things I didn’t like. First, there are MANY players, and it’s very difficult to know who each person is and what their role is. Mostly I just let those flow by and don’t worry about specifics. Second, Nick himself often sounds like a complete idiot. He often misses clear clues of how to converse with others and acts as if everyone had the same motives and straightforwardness. He also has the most annoying habit of often repeating what other people say as a question, instead of moving the conversation forward, he repeats what was just said. Come on! Try a little harder.

If you like slow moving and just plain space filler you’ll enjoy. Sorry. I never leave neg reviews but the music and slow movement of this- it isn’t even a story.

I love MK's character evolution in this! I'm just beginning season 3 and you're starting to see a crack in her hard exterior, which is sweet. Just a crack tho, she's still hilariously brazen.

Great show if you like magnus archives and old gods of Appalachia!! Very intriguing and complex Super great story telling

Nic, you disappeared. Where are you? What happened? I am still wondering who Kali is... Where is Rose? Merecatnip? What did you do when Nic disappeared at the stone? And...oh god...SO many questions. Maybe you are quietly seeking recruits, so here's my personal pitch: Seeking Tanis. Runner available. Don't hesitate to reach out, or...give us another season soon so we can transcend from this plane to our beloved Tanis. 🐌🦋👹🪱🐍

I think it might be the chill opening song that’s giving me those comfort vibes, because it’s definitely not the content of the episodes. There’s so much to like here. The acting is fantastic and I love the creepy premise. Worth a listen for the first season alone. Bring on season 6!

A couple things: 1. Stop trying to give the impression that ANY of this story is non-fiction! Then use that to develop these one-note characters!!! There is one point in the story where the relationship between two characters isn’t explored more because it would “interfere with the story”. All this added to the fact that there are enough loose ends left untied to make JJ Abrahms have a stroke….. love the concept and premise of all this, just piss poor writing as far as the characters and plot holes go.

Just finished seasons 1-5. Hoping there are more planned?? You can’t leave us on a cliffhanger like that?!?!

And his whole character thus far (4 eps in). He just sounds like a clueless nerd all the time, he’s very passive in every convo with Meetkatnip, and you can tell he’s Canadian from his voice & personality. I just don’t like this guy as a voice actor, it’s not believable and especially the way he says Tanis is just bleh.

I loved this whole thing, if I had to do it again I would just pay for no ads… but this is a great story- I couldn’t stop listening!

I know I’m very late to the show. A friend of mine at work suggested this to me and I felt I needed a break from true crime and politics. I’ve been listening for two weeks now and am hooked. This show is brilliant story telling at its absolute finest!

I would listen to endless seasons. So much mystery and such a thoughtful narrative.

I’ve been listening since 2016, so good. I’ve reposté es to everything multiple times. More please!!!

Enjoyed the podcast and trying to find something similar. I liked all the characters and wish I had a friend like MK. I did not quite understand the ending though. What happened to Nic and what about MK?

One of the Best podcast on the air. No contest. Too bad it seemed to end abruptly. I guess Rasputin won. Personally, since this is a investigation type podcast. Let’s go ahead and end it at Dyatlov Pass maybe? Hope to hear more Rabits and Tanis someday. Cheerio.

I have been searching for a while for a good book or something that sent me spiraling into questions and a need to know more. I very recently stumbled into this and thought, eh, I’ll give it a try, and this is exactly what I wanted. I usually spend a day to binge a season, then take some time to go down the rabbit hole looking up references from the show before I go to the next season. Intriguing, interesting and different

Despite the unspecified hiatus, I am so glad I found this podcast and I’ll spend forever looking for something similar: fictional podcasts that are still podcasts. I’ve tried to get into regular fictional podcasts, but it’s just not the same.

Comes off as super cringy at times. I want to listen and it sounds interesting, but the acting comes off weird at times. The MK character…. Not really sure if it’s the delivery or the actual writing but it comes off terrible, is she the bad guy? She just comes off as so cocky and arrogant it’s tough to listen to. At times I feel like they’re using her to explain something, but she uses these belittling quips/answers that don’t really flow great and just turns me off. Stories interesting tho, I’ll keep chugging along

The negative reviews on here are 100 percent accurate. Except for MK and Jeff, the voice acting is dull, the main character, Nick, really does repeat everything that someone tells him and loves to use a phrase “well that sounds (add adjective here) whenever someone gives him a bit of information. Season 1 was good, it got me hooked but after seasons 2 it felt like this story was going losing direction and would drag on. Season 3 confirmed that. I gave up after that.

Good podcast. The ending is pretty bad, though, honestly. There’s a world of difference between ‘an ambiguous ending’ and ‘we couldn’t think of an actual ending.’ The first season understood that a lot better than the second. Also MK is kind of insufferable. She feels like a caricature of a 90s ‘cool girl’ and just constantly acts wildly irrational in an attempt to make her sound more logical.

I found this early in the pandemic and was hooked from Ep 1, first season! I can’t speak to the later seasons, but I’m sure their just as good. Ignore the “complainy” reviews, and give it a listen. I’m not a fan of the radio show format, but this one sucked me in. Before the spoilers, I started listening because I thought it was “true story”. 😂 Very intriguing story non the less!

Really well produced, a fanatic story with interesting characters.

I started listening because of the black tapes! I am hooked with this company and their ability to keep the listener hooked!

I can't stop listening!

Essentially, you’re looking at an old fashioned cosmic hour mystery radio hour in which local radio personality tries to solve the mystery of the week despite being the most gullible man that ever lived. Through the power of friendship, and all of his friends are smarter than them, combined with good guy triumphs over evil storytelling themes the main character succeeds.

I wasted days listening to this show! Seriously don’t waste your time this is the worst fiction podcast in the universe, they keep pulling up new topics.

I just finished season 3 and I’ve enjoyed Tanis for the most part so far. The story is interesting and there have been some good twists and turns this far. However, I get a little frustrated by the dialogue at times, especially characters’ tendencies to say another characters name if that character doesn’t respond to a question in .5 seconds. This happens multiple times in every episode and the therapy sessions are especially cringey because of it. This isn’t unique to a particular character or to Tanis, as it’s common in Rabbits, as well. One other complaint is characters doing extreme things for almost no reason at all. For example, one character pretends to be someone else, but has no real reason for doing so. They’re only pretending to be them in name and haven’t changed anything else about their identity, and they don’t have a solid rationale for doing so. I wish that some twists weren’t there for just shock value. It makes the buildup extremely disappointing.

This show is a pretty good one to listen to after listening to rabbits. I can see how some elements from the first season of Tanis are incorporated into the second of rabbits and I would not be surprised if the two are linked. I haven’t made it to season five yet but I will steadily get there. I read the rabbits book as well, so if we are looking at what I think we are… I will take the road less traveled by.

The story started out captivating and just the right amount of weird. Then the plot points and twists just got out of hand. And the voice acting is terrible. The monotone voice makes it hard to stay focused.
