BELOW DECK

And annoying gay charter guests who look like they’d be more at home on CIRCLE LINE. Yay!

Am I the only one watching the new season?

I loved the first episode but I loathe that primary charter guest. That chef is gonna blow. I wonder if they’ll bring Ben back. Again. Also, someone on another thread said Bruno comes back as a replacement for the sweet guy who left.

I don't know why I like Eddie, but I do. And I'm glad that Kate is gone. I loved her, but it's nice to see new people. And a female chef! Love it!

I’m glad Kate is gone, too. Mean but not in a funny way. Just nasty. Bravo is keeping her busy but she’s really not funny.

Captain Lee looks like he had an eyelift and got his neck waddle reduced during the off season. He was probably taking painkillers when he fell down in the shower.

I love Eddie. He looks better than ever this season, and he's got such a great sense of humor. I loved when he ran past the galley screaming, "Hot mess comin' through!"

I already despise the pretty boy British deck hand. He takes narcissism to a whole new level.

Eddie seems gay this season. Is he?

Despise Captain Lee. You just KNOW he voted for Trump.

Can't believe that deckhand lost his chance to be on a popular TV show because his grandmother was dying. Sounds like she was gonna die before he even got home.

Eddie was on WWHL after the first episode, and he said he was still with his girlfriend. I don't think he's gay at all, but I also don't think he has any hangups about being "macho." That's one of the reasons I like him.

Eddie is a unicorn: a genuinely decent and good looking straight guy. He's probably drowning in pussy. He should find a rich bitch to marry so that he can buy his own damn superyachts.

That Chief Stew needs a hairbrush. I already hate the stew that talks about fucking and her vagina and condoms and menstruation and boogers and the rest. And I hate the British guy who ain't all that. I really hope that the show doesn't spend too much time on the Captain since Kate is gone--he's such a nasty asshole.

Bring back Ben!

I really wanna toss the gay prick charter guest and all his friends into the sea. What a bunch of obnoxious assholes.

R3 Do you really think Bravo is gonna bring Bruno back now that he's started a career in gay porn?

R12. Dave, deckhand from seasons 1 and 2 made gay porn films. And we’re talking about Bravo here. They’ll happily cast wife beaters and rapists and think nothing of it.

R13 Yes, but Dave's had a porn *past* that came to light *after* he was on Below Deck.

Bruno's currently doing gay porn and it's well known, so I still think Bravo would be skittish about bringing him back.

No love for the Californian?

R15 You mean the idiot yoga dude who was walking around with paper straws?

Yup.

He graduated from Berkeley so he can’t be quite as dumb as he seems. I suspect he has a trust fund.

R18 I've known plenty of people who went to Berkeley who would be challenged to tie their own shoes.

Oh look, Shane has an internet persona: Sustainable Shane!

These guests are messy and rude!

I would smack that primary guest queen smack in the face and throw her bloated stomach overboard.

And the stupid girls crying over the narcissist deck hand. What a bunch of embarrassing idiots.

Those guest are in a class by themselves. World Champions of Cunt.

I wonder if they get a special discount for creating drama.

Charlie the primary is ranting online about how production told them to behave badly because it would make things more interesting. Sure, Jan.

R24 Charlie is a cunt. I seriously doubt production prodded him to be a cunt.

Charlie is an attention whore.

I don’t doubt it. But he is still a master. “Oh, you look exhausted. Allow me to do your job for you. I’ll serve while you get some rest.” [big smile].

There’s no #metoo in yachting!

They don't bring this guy back multiple times to the show because he creates boring TV

The speedo deckhand isn’t as hot as he thinks he is.

How convenient that the obnoxious gay brought a sparkly speedo that perfectly fits the British deckhand.

If the guest having a birthday was a man, would one of the female cast members get naked and gyrate for him?

It’s interesting how everyone seems ok with the guests lusting after certain crew members. Captain Lee doesn’t seem bothered by it. I guess the crew goes along because nobody wants to jeopardize the tip.

Shane was on WWHL and he said he was also asked to wear a Speedo and said no. Not because he thought it was inherently inappropriate, but because his grandmother would see.

I wonder how Captain Lee would have reacted if the guests had asked the Stews to show their tits.

The guest tormentors are so [italic]nouveau riche[/italic] that their money hasn't even been printed yet.

[quote] Shane was on WWHL and he said he was also asked to wear a Speedo and said no

I'm guessing it's because he's a Princess Tiny Meat.

Shane was not the one the horny female guests were hot for. He’s delusional. I wonder if he survives the full charter season. Based on previews it looks like Chef Rachel quits.

R35 He said he refused to do it because he didn't want his grandma watching the show and seeing him in a Speedo.

Yeah, right, Shane.

But Shane is perfectly fine with his Grandma seeing him act a fool.

New episode tonight!

James is really beautiful, love his king eyelashes. Judging from that speedo he’s hung too. Shane is useless, but he’s a doll too.

^^^long eyelashes....ugh

Shane doesn’t go for sarcasm.

Shane is "simple."

There’s a Francesca/Elizabeth storm brewing. I can feel it.

I want James to sit on my face.

That is all.

This crew is boring af. I didn't even know that second stew's name because she doesn't get any screentime. She's that boring. Avery who I really liked is gone. I like Eddie. I like James for pure eye candy. The rest are blah.

Izzy seems a tad psychotic.

Let’s combine the two threads. This one is Season 8 specific, so let’s s use it.
