  1. There’s not a cruise ship out there that can perform the complicated stuff they do on this ship. Not surgery like they did on tonight’s show, nor most of the fantasy stuff they show. And FYI, cruise ships do not allow pregnant women on a ship if they’re past a certain number of weeks. And they require a letter from the woman’s obstetrician telling them how many weeks she’s at.
  2. Yes, the passenger is billed and they have to submit claims to their insurance when they get home. A basic visit can cost upwards of $400+. And I can tell you that almost none of the tests/procedures are done on cruise ships. Basic help, only and then it’s off the ship in the next port.
  3. I can’t stand this season. Don’t care for these stupid challenges and the judging is way off base. I also don’t like this $1000 prize for the pre-heat. Nancy has become a giant pain in the ass as she over judges everything and not a lot seems to meet her personal standards. I also hated when Carla stacked up one baker’s cupcakes because she didn’t think it was tall enough. That was just damn rude. And I don’t like the 2 hour format. The shows just drag along.
  4. Hope needed to man up and scream, “I’m fucking Carter you boneheads”. Finn is too much of a low intellect to waste time with.
  5. I wish Victor would retire already. Seriously, he’s acting like he’s part of the crypt keeper group. And I’m sick of him always going after Jack. Idiot doesn’t realize that Jack saved Nikki? Maybe he’s pissed that he was too incompetent to save his wife. Can you see that jerk being an AA sponsor? Whats up with so many people sporting the Crisco hairstyle? Clair’s hair looks like it hasn’t been washed in months. Phyllis has that same look, not to mention Nick, Adam, Billy and the rest. But seriously, is this greasy look in style?
  6. No, ships rarely have theme weeks. There might be a large group on certain cruises, but unless you charter the entire ship, the groups generally don’t impact the other passengers. The hat wearing Captain is wrong in so many ways. No socks? You’ll not see that. Wearing a tux—-you’ll never, ever see that. Captains wear their dress whites or blues, depending on the weather. I don’t know what it is with Don Johnson, but to me he looks dirty and messy, like he needs a flea dip.
  7. I think these punishments for the losing team are totally unfair. I’m against any kind of punishment that has the potential to injure contestants. I’m not a fan of Egypt whatsoever. When watching him in previous weeks, he seemed to do nothing more than yell at his team, and he didn’t appear to be cooking much of anything. I think that’s the reason his team turned against him. He seemed to be more interested in berating his team, rather than cooking. And seeing how much he fell apart tonight, I’m shocked how a few words from Gordon turned him around——he came out grinning like nothing happened. I’m a big fan of Whit and I want to see Team Red do better each week.
  8. Maybe they’ll be married at Vic’s villa in Tuscany.
  9. Like I posted earlier, this show doesn’t set foot on a real ship. They used giant sound stages, and went to a local beach for some outdoor shots. The ship that you see on some shots looks like the Ritz Carlton ship or something similar. They are very small and hold less than 300 passengers. I’ve been in the medical clinic on many ships from the 5000 passenger behemoths to luxury ships carrying 200, and no ship’s medical facility looks anything like the Odyssey. They are basic rooms that look like something like those walk in clinic emergency rooms. They handle your basic illnesses and emergency cases. Anything serious is handled by removing the patient to the closest port for treatment. My mom broke her hip on a ship and she was medically evacuated in Nassau and from there she was flown to Ft Lauderdale on a med jet where she had surgery. I also witnessed an evacuation via a helicopter when we were too far from land. The patient was a 99 year old woman who needed serious medical intervention. There are so many falsehoods on this show, it’s laughable.
  10. Why has Phyllis taken to whispering 90% of her lines? She’s always leaning in to whomever she’s talking to and just whispers in a hushed manner. Is this some new acting method?
  11. Unfortunately, cruise ships don't have lifeguards. There have been a few instances where people have drowned in cruise ship pools.
  12. Even on the behemoth cruise ships with 5000 passengers, the medical staff is usually 4 nurses and 1 doctor. Assuming this ship has under 1000 passengers, having 3 medical personnel is about right.
  13. I’ve been on more than 100 cruises, so I’m probably looking at this with a very critical eye, not having anything to do with production values, but with how the crew behaves/works. Believe me, you rarely, if ever, see the ships medical staff out and about in civilian clothes——always in uniform while on the ship. The medical staff has to be easily recognizable by passengers. And the Captain doesn’t wear a tux on formal nights, but either dress whites or blues. Always in uniform. This is the same for the medical staff As for the “ship”, I just looked up what ship they used and found out that they didn’t film on any ship at all. Everything is done on massive sound stages in Los Angeles. If they need any outdoor shots, they filmed them at various seaside places/beaches around LA. Despite the fact that I was really looking forward to this show, I’m going to do a hard pass.
  14. I think Herrmann would make a terrible Chief. He’s a whiner, acts like a petulant 12 year old and just doesn't have the chops to be in that position. I’m really going to miss Boden as to me he’s the quintessential Chief.
  15. I know I’m an old relic, but I have to say that I’m turned off by chefs who are sloppy looking and in need of a good, long shower. There are a few of those in this group. I’m beginning to wonder if the Ramsay producers go out of their way to find contestants with a certain look? And while I know that the food prep part is high pressure, I wonder if in their real jobs these chefs are as messy in their kitchens as they are in the HK facility?
