I know that none of youse guys watch Below Deck Mediterranean but I enjoy it a lot. I love the setting of a yacht and the stupid rich people who inhabit it. Usually they are drunken fools and there are various shenanigans among the crew as they hook up and bicker while working 16 hour days. This season is particularly crazy.
One of the interesting things about this season is you can get the next week's episode in advance for some reason. So I caught it On Demand and it was flat out crazy.
They are in Croatia during the Covid crisis so they are kind of limited in what they can do. Therefore they are limited to socializing with each other. Traditionally after a charter they all go out to eat and usually get roaring drunk. Usually hilarity ensues. This time not so much.
One of the stews is a girl named Lexi Wilson. She is a statuesque beauty who was a pageant Queen. I think she was Miss Bahamas or something. So she already thinks her shit don't stink and that she is above everybody when in fact she is just a maid. Not that there is anything wrong with that but she is constantly putting everyone down and telling them how much better she is then they are. Even her boss! It all came to head in the hot tub.
After a night of drinking and arguing they are all in the Hot Tub drinking from the neck of expensive champagne bottles and talking shit. One of the nerdy deck guys gets a phone call and is not paying attention. This Lexi chick starts yelling at him and calling him a pussy. Even the other slut bags told her she was going too far. She gets up and grabs him physically and presses his face to her ginormous tits. The guy is very embarrassed and upset and gets up and leaves the tub. Now he is a joker but he doesn't make it sexual. He might even be gay but for sure he is super nerdy. She had no right to sexually touch him. If a guy did that they would be fired immediately. Since it was a woman nothing is going to happen. I wish the guy would make a federal case out of it and call HR. Let them have a taste of their own medicine. Last season they cut a guy out of every episode because of some tweets. Here this bitch physically assaults' someone. It wasn't innocent or fun. It was mean and nasty. I wonder what is going to happen. I bet nothing. I just think in the Me Too era it is very very interesting.
I can't wait for next week to see what happens.
Oh the chef quit too and broke some cameras on the way out the door. It was a shit show. Very entertaining.

My son spent 2 summers in Skagway, Alaska working as a cook. Skagway has a steady stream of cruise ships daily. The crews were notorious for being assholes and skipping out on checks.
The Bravo channel should be called the Shame Channel. It's a plague. I'll cop to having watched a few episodes of Housewives through the years. Early on it was okay because there was always at least one of them that was semi-civilized and the bad behavior was all pretty tame and local but now it's international screaming whore shenanigans underwritten by the sneaky NBC and the cross-eyed shite-stirrer/enabler and high decibel dummies with "glam squads" are gross. This show went through a similar metamorphosis where the shenanigans went from amusing to appalling very quickly. I can't pinpoint a season where this happened. One of the last times I watched was with the male captain/skinny American head stew version and it suddenly went completely wokesideways when one of the sub-stewies got accusatory with one of the deckhands even after showing her boobies all over thailand or wherever. The show took sides. Guess whose. I don't get the channel anymore and I don't miss it.
American-Hollywood-TeeVee is horrid.
It rots your brain .
From AOS: TV ratings are down so far that the nets are asking that the Nielsen ratings be abolished. Typical douchey prog behavior: Make bad facts go away by banishing the evidence. Someone mentioned today that the Olympics are starting. I had no idea!
