I had to laugh out loud when Dr Marcel glanced at the abused girl's cleavage and thought to use breast implants to stabilize that heart during surgery.

It's because the sun reflects off white sand beaches like the ones in Grenada and you don't really feel how much sun you're getting. It's happened to me several times in the Grenadines. The darker teak decks on the yachts don't have the same effect. Of course, the smart thing to do is to always apply plenty of sunscreen before you go outside in the Caribbean.

Late to the party but, I mean, why don't they just rename this show Upton PD ?

The hits just keep on coming for Chance. Perhaps he should change his name to NoChance. Oh well, third time's a charm. https://starcasm.net/life-after-lockup-chance-pitt-arrested-felony-auto-theft/

An entire episode without a puzzle or obstacle course? See, Probst? Survivor can still be interesting without the cliche challenges of the “new era”.

I've now finished both seasons and one thing bugs the crap out of me. It's a small thing and I haven't read this entire thread to see if it's been answered, but - What the hell is the correct pronunciation? I've heard: Mur-dah Mur-daw Mur-dock Also heard Alex and Alec I think I heard Alex himself say Mur-dah while testifying but the sound wan't great on my TV and neither is my hearing. But I was surprised to hear so many variations from people who actually live in that area.

With Asonta's death mere days before the season premiere I guess there wasn't a whole lot of editing they could do to minimize his screen time. Unfortunately, now every time he does something asshole-ish (and that looks to be often) I'll be calling him out under my breath while at the same time going, "but he's dead." Not that it excuses him at all but I'll feel a little guilty. Just a little. What's the deal with 23-year old Britney driving a late-model E-Class Mercedes while working as a server (or something similar - can't remember)? As far as I can tell Kerok is not a Native American with a large monthly stipend like Chris in the last season. And her parents have disowned her so she ain't getting money from them. Weird. Also weird is that it's apparently a requirement now for females dating an inmate to have long, elaborate nails with neon colors to flash at every opportunity. Although I guess it does help to pull your long hair/wig away from your face every 3.2 seconds.

I was wondering how they would deal with Asonta's death. I had been spoiled not long after it happened so was curious. Looks like they're going to go ahead and feature him as scheduled in LAL. Which is... weird.

After his reappearance this season, and based on my opinion of him from a previous one, I started referring to him as J-Wow. Mostly as a joke in reference to Jersey Shore's Jenni Farley, who uses the nickname "JWoww". Probably because both characters seem pretty impressed with themselves. Although so far this season he hasn't been too bad. But as someone noted, he hasn't been stinking drunk. Yet.

Yes! There was one shot in particular that made it cross my mind. Can't remember exactly which one but I figured it was just my weird brain. And speaking of which, after Aesha's loud exclamation of "She's GORRRRRRRGEOUS!!" while looking at Jaimee's resume, and then similar comments from others, I expected someone, you know, gorgeous. Which? Not so much. The other female crew are, IMO, much more attractive. But so far she seems nice.

I was stunned to see that after watching pervo Luke's actions and then feeling good about his being fired, we find out his replacement will be... JWao. Seriously? Another delusional dude with anger management issues. Wao. I mean, wow. Maybe they can replace Laura with Snooki.

That was the moment when she became the female equivalent of Gary on BDSY for me. Girl, you ain't all that.

No, it's centered. But when a typical prop turns (say, clockwise) it tends to push the stern to starboard (right) and the bow to port (left). So you have to compensate for this with the ship's wheel, which can be tricky if there's not a lot of room to maneuver. I believe what Jason was referring to was exactly that situation. This may be his first experience with a single-screw yacht. Most modern yachts have twin screws and it's easier to compensate for that prop walk. Also, most of the yachts I've seen on BD shows have bow and stern thrusters, which are small jets that can actually push the boat sideways. You can see their bubbles sometimes in the overhead shots during docking. If anyone is interested, here's a more detailed explanation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_walk Sorry for the nerdy interruption. We now return you to your regularly scheduled program. LOL

Just FYI, but my captioning (and IMDB.com) have the character's name as Taryn, not Tamryn.

Definitely. And they still are. Only now that the predicted Y2K disaster failed to happen, a scammer has to be more, shall we say, creative and just come up with a different excuse. For example, the End Times are coming next Thursday. Unless, of course, that doesn't happen. And JFK Jr. is going to appear in Dallas. Oh wait, that didn't happen? Well, it was because he actually decided to run for president in 2024. And so on. Food buckets are still being hawked, primarily by televangelists and doomsday preppers. Which? Are often one and the same. Remember Jim Bakker, the disgraced televangelist and convicted felon? He's back at it and funding his TV show in part with food buckets. I won't link to the jerk's website but here is an article from 2015 describing what the 'food' is like. Sadly, there are plenty of others also doing the same scam. And people fall for it, over and over.

Totally agree. Seems like stock footage they edit in every time the boat sails as if they think we're that stupid. This time they even showed Glenn telling Daisy or one of the stews that they were getting ready to sail and would be heeling. I'm not saying things don't get occasionally left out or unsecured but this has now just become a cliche shot.

Those are messenger lines, which are connected at one end to the actual dock lines, which are waaay too heavy to throw. Once the guy on dock catches or retrieves the messenger lines, he pulls them until the full-size dock lines are within grasp. Then he can secure them to a cleat or bollard on the dock.

I was referring to PaperTree's comment about their own injury.

Our wonderful US corporate gold mine. I mean... healthcare system.

Holy crap! Even with the homeless, scruffy look I knew the guy playing Shep immediately. Kevin Can F**k Himself!!

Please forgive my unmitigated delight at the sight of SMJ seemingly about to leave this mortal coil. The prospect of this show being without her obstreperous presence and cantankerous utterings would induce an explosion of joy within my weary soul. May her final expulsion of breath be the impetus for an influx of fresh oxygen into the writers' room. However, should this become a feint by producers to elicit gasps of wonderment by a, yet again, gullible audience, I should be compelled to cast a pox upon all their domiciles. Die, bitch! Die!

I'm not familiar with a documentary but the series is based on a book by Baltimore Sun reporter Justin Fenton, available on Amazon: We Own This City: A True Story of Crime, Cops, and Corruption

Although I kept wondering - given how many times we saw Lyle become 'undead' on the beach, is he actually dead this time? I think it would be a cheap trick if we find out next season that he isn't, but you never know.
