Anyone other than me and a couple of others on the Selling Sunset thread discovered this awesome reality series? The charter clients are insane, the crew is so bitchy (towards each other and the guests) and it’s just the most excellent escapism.

Just come across this article from the NY times. Which mentions quite a bit about behind the scenes & logistics, which have been questioned on this thread.

Oh my, I just read some possible spoilers for season 5 of BDM! Anyone else watching it currently? I'm shocked but also not surprised, argh need people to discuss this with!

jay55 · 04/08/2020 10:55

I'm about to watch this weeks. Are your spoilers about Hannah @CupcakesK ?

CupcakesK · 04/08/2020 11:00

Partly about Hannah, although I knew she was leaving anyway, it seems there is more to it then her quitting the show.

jay55 · 04/08/2020 11:33

Yeah think we've read the same.

I'm not a fan of Hannah but I really dislike Sandy this season more than usual and it just seems everything is a setup and nothing is allowed to just happen.

HowFastIsTooFast · 04/08/2020 12:46

Hello! Late to the party, hope I haven't missed the boat! I've binged both the seasons on Netflix and DP is currently sourcing all the others for me.

I love love love it. For those further ahead, do we ever meet a chief stew who isn't a complete bitch, and does anyone really believe that Kate was 31 when season 2 was filmed???

CupcakesK · 04/08/2020 16:00

Yes I'm liking captain Sandy less and less as the season goes on. When Bugs came on it really felt like they were setting something up rather than letting things happen naturally and I guess that's confirmed now.

Welcome @HowFastIsTooFast
Oh you have so much BD to catch up on! And the answer is no, there is no such thing as a non-bitchy chief stew. Also Kate never ages and at least one person gets fired each season

jay55 · 04/08/2020 18:16

I adore Kate, she makes me laugh so much. Obviously she's had some terrible moments but overall she keeps the show moving along.

elizabethdraper · 04/08/2020 18:29

I have watched all of the below decks (hayu subscription)

I am now Binging the hell out of married to medicine Atlanta

They are all completely batshit cray cray

HowFastIsTooFast · 11/08/2020 08:34

Just got a Hayu subscription and dived into Below Deck Med. An ex of mine works on Yachts and turns out he knows Hannah (which knowing him probably translates to 'has slept with Hannah'). Thankfully DP is becoming as addicted as I am, so no guilt about hogging the TV Grin

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 11/08/2020 19:56

No spoilers but last night's below deck med was 'interesting'

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 18/08/2020 07:57

No-one else still watching? Gosh Malia's boyfriend is a wimp!

snaxinyourslacks · 18/08/2020 10:03

I'm still watching! I've not watched the latest episode which I think is due out today but I feel sad about Kiko going. I used to really like Sandy and Malia but I've gone right off them after all this.

jay55 · 18/08/2020 12:51

I will catch up on the last two later, I wanted to watch back to back.
Saw the clip of Malians boyfriend and the prawns, he seems all ego like previous chefs. I'll miss Kiko.

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 18/08/2020 14:05

I'm watching! Spoiler spoiler spoiler alert:

As a general rule, I don't like Hannah and I do like Malia, but Malia really doesn't come out of this looking good. Whining about the cabins really annoyed me. Plus now she looks horribly vindictive. Sandy didn't handle the actual show down well at all, but Hannah wasn't clear - she said she didn't have a prescription and then she said she did. I've seen the photo she shared on Twitter, but the side with the prescription could be any box she's had, not necessarily the one she had on board.

CupcakesK · 18/08/2020 17:16

Hannah was definitely in the wrong, but Malia was so sneaky and underhand about the whole thing, especially as she’d just thrown her toys out of the pram about the cabin situation

Can’t wait for the reunion show Grin

wildthingsinthenight · 18/08/2020 20:27

Joining so so late.
I am obsessed with BD. Just started season 4.

wildthingsinthenight · 18/08/2020 20:28

In awe of Kate C. I love her

IHeartHarryStyles · 18/08/2020 20:32

Hey there 🙌🏻🙌🏻

wildthingsinthenight · 18/08/2020 20:38

IHeartHarryStyles 👋👋
I also heart Harry Styles. Do I know you??
Smile

MiddleClassProblem · 18/08/2020 22:31

I couldn’t watch him shuck those oysters 😂

Those guests are awful. I don’t blame him being pissed off about the cake or the lobster but he’s a bit whiny about the break thing when it’s the guests fault, not his. It’s a day one anomaly.

I love Amalia but agree with the cabin and pic thing. Although Hannah was 100% wrong and attempting to flush stuff clearly. She also pretended it was more about her stability but that was Sandy trying to just give extra reasons. Not the main reason.

IHeartHarryStyles · 19/08/2020 09:33

Ooh I haven’t watched this weeks yet although I follow them all on twitter so know the gist. Looking forward to catching up!

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2020 09:36

Honestly, the guests are awful and bleugh

JonHammIsMyJamm · 30/08/2020 15:24

I’m relatively new to the hideous yet addictive world of Below Deck. I binged the first 2 series on Netflix and then had to get the HayU trial on Prime to continue. So I’m now in the early stages of s3 of the normal BD series.

Rocky is a pain in the arse. She wants to be a chef but took a job as a stewardess. She wants to be a deckhand but took a job as a stewardess. She wants to be anything but a stewardess but took a job as a stewardess. Apart from the old ones; Amy, Eddie, Amy & Kate, oh and Connie, the rest seem to be useless and/or have no clear role. Why have they got Donnie the engineer doing deckhand grunt work? No wonder he was pissed off and didn’t know whether he was coming or going. He didn’t need to be such a cock about it all though.

That Leon is a wanker.

JonHammIsMyJamm · 30/08/2020 15:27

And yes, the guests are awful. Money and no class. So much so that I wonder if they are plants.

I’ve just seen the turn down in s3 includes a Ferrero Rocher on the pillow. Tells me everything I need to know. “Luxury”, my left tit.
