Below Deck addicts ahoy!

[Wrongdissection]

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.

Noooooooooooooo

I can only get seasons 1 & 2 here and obviously I finished them so quickly.

Now going to have to wait for more seasons to fill in who all the names are

Off to go look at Bens instagram in the meantime

Oh poor Conrad was eaten alive. He was hot though. And that saga by the end was getting silly.

Bens instagram and you tube is amazing.

I've been working through the WWHL after deck clips on you tube too.

THe whole business with Brooke - Jaoao - Kasey is ridiculous as well. Feel like Brooke is so thirsty for a boat romance, Jaoao gave no fucks about anything. She was just the one who made a move first. She is so insipid and there is zero chemistry between them. On the last couple of episodes now.

Kasey was awful.
Oh I liked Brooke. But I think it was partly just because she was a normal girl from England.

I think because the romance between Conrad and Hannah was such a shit show. I liked the Brooke Joao romance.

Season 4 puts Joao in a much better light.

Onto season 4 of med. this is my life now I guess..

Mila !

Just chiming in a bit late on the Caroline thing, obviously how it ended was insane.
I don't understand how she was ever a solo stew, unless she only had solo passengers. She was so slow with drinks and so keen to take breaks all the time.
She was arrested for theft last year, adds to Kyle and Ross as those with legal issues after the show.

On the stew front, just like when people go on Hell's Kitchen without practicing wellington and risotto, why do they go on the show without practicing making cocktails, coffees and squeezing oranges? It baffles me.

I think if I knew I was going to be a stew. I'd be YouTubing so many how to videos. From making a bed & ironing a shirt to making the countries signature cocktail and making nice table settings

Ooh really, didn’t realise Caroline had been arrested. She was absolutely hopeless.

Agreed though, I would be trying to hone all my skills in advance!

My relative did a course that prepares you for yachts and ski chalets, as well as the safety course. So did fancy table settings, cooking, drinks, laundry etc. Probably pays itself back within a charter or two.

Kevin has a getting on my last nerve in the latest season. I know chefs have a reputation for ego but his is off the scale, especially as his food is simpler than Ben and Adrian AND not ordering the seafood.

Kevin is awful. A really horrible man.

DD has been watching with me. She now plans to go here after A levels...

That looks like an amazing idea. I hope she goes for it.

It actually looks really interesting and seems to cover an awful lot,

I’m definitely encouraging it if she fancies it!

Wow that looks great! If i was couple of years younger I'd be like thanks for the link totally going to research this more

Am rewatching the whole show from the beginning again. I honestly think that Season 2 was the absolute best. Obviously there was the Kat/Amy argument but on the whole the crew are better friends than any since then & a lot less drama.

My only complaint is that Kat spends more time moaning than working in the first 3 or 4 eps.

Kate on the other hand is fantastic.

I think season 3 is my favourite, DD is watching them all now so it’s on around the house again. Rocky is just so bonkers, Donny has to be witnessed to be believed and Ben saves the day. What’s not to like?

urgh. Rocky does my head in. She's that annoying "I'm whacky, me!" attention seeking type. That said, I do feel sorry for her towards the end because Eddie is a total scrote to deny having had a thing with her. He was clearly embarrassed of her because of how other members of the crew viewed her. Crappy behaviour.

But Yay! to Ben saving the day. I do remember being so thrilled when he returned. Just about to start on Season 3 now and not looking forward to episodes with Leon the Douche-bag. He's so utterly vile to Kate.

Just started series 7 of Below Deck and have seen the latest Med. What am I going to watch after??

@RockingMyFiftiesNot sailing yacht? 😂

@Wrongdissection was thinking about that but I thought I'd read on here that it's not so good?

I liked it, it’s definitely watchable.

That has made my day!!! (Shows how sad my life currently is!)

I've become obsessed with this - trying to watch it all before my month free Hayu trial runs out!

I enjoyed the sailing boat series - oh my god the lads group what a bunch of absolute dickheads. Literally the worst kind of men in every way.

I'm finding the med version less interesting to watch (also had that one episode unable to watch in season one).
Is Hannah in all seasons?

Season 7 of the regular one turned all a bit big brother and not entirely sure that Bravo did their job in terms of duty of care towards the women. They all kicked ass in the reunion though.
