Q and Venus should get married. They're both legends in their own minds.

I think if Q explained his rules of hide 'n seek better maybe Hunter wouldn't have gone so far up a tree. I would assume we were playing old-school rules, of which the purpose is not to be found or tagged it (because we used to have a home base we'd run to).
Yeah I didn't think they were playing that right either.

Oh for Pete's sake. I hope the incessant Q centric-ness of this episode means he's getting voted out. I'm so tired of hearing him say so-and-so "made a mistake" by showing him they're playing the game. What an ego.

I bet if Q and Tevin were walking side by side, they couldn't pass through a doorway 10 ft. wide, they both have such big heads ! It will be fun to see them both voted out.
From your keyboard to God's ear. I really dread seeing either or both of them make it all the way to the end. They are both getting final three edit.

I agree, just what is their point? Do we even know their names?
One is named Rosalind Clifford and the other is named Kathy Downes. But I had to look them up on imdb.com. I honestly don't know if their names have ever been mentioned in the show itself.

Buck has always been promiscuous with women, and now suddenly with no warning or lead up except nearly crippling Eddie the week before, he’s gay?
First of all, at most he's bi. Second of all, straight men develop crushes on other men all the time. Don't believe me? Ask any sports fanatic. We don't know how far this thing with Tommy will go. Once it becomes actually intimate, Buck might discover he's not into it after all.
That said, the show has been laying the groundwork for something like this to happen for years. Buck's chemistry with Eddie certainly hasn't gone unnoticed, and he has yet to have a long-term, successful relationship with a woman.
1 hour ago, Attatude said:I love this show and I don’t want to see it get cancelled, but going soapy on viewers is not going to get them decent ratings.
On the contrary, there is a fanbase out there that has been waiting for something like this for a long time. This might actually boost ratings. And the show has been "soapy" since day 1 anyway.

Again - there seemed to be some pre-arranged strategy in the voting process, because they couldn't have been voting left to right coincidentally. I'd really like to know how they are able to plan that though. When it got down to the final three, Laura should have voted off Adam, who was a stronger player than Evan. But it didn't end up mattering since she beat him anyway, surprisingly. Can't believe he couldn't guess 7-11! It's right there in the name! Hasn't he ever heard of 7-11's before??

Yup. That must kill her. Granted, Glee had a pretty niche audience in a specific age range. I gave up on it after Season 2 when they basically dropped all efforts in the grown-up storyline and it became 100% teen show.

The show continues to be hit or miss. They really need to sit down and decide which games are working and which aren't instead of trying to come up with new games all the time. I've yet to see one work where they come out from behind their podiums and try to act something out. This last one where they did improv Cameo messages was really bad. Also, trying to guess the Vine clips was pointless because they were so obscure nobody could ever guess them.

Guest satisfaction is a team effort, it's not about holding the chef's hand. Why do think they have preference sheet meeting with the department heads?
Mostly for out benefit. But also to spell out what each department head has in store for himself or herself. At the end of the day, food is the chef's responsibility, period. It's not his responsibility to call the provisioner for party supplies, or decorate the tables, or organize outings. Nor is it the bosun's. Everyone has their own job to do.
I don't know, I'm just skeptical that things would be fixed or even significantly better if more people were helping the chef. Why hasn't Captain Kerry asked the crew to pitch in and help more? Kerry is borderline micromanaging every aspect of these charters, and even he puts the blame squarely on Anthony.
5 hours ago, snarts said:There's a ton of history where the Chief Stew and Chef worked together on menus. Kate & Ben went to dinner to discuss, she did the same with Matt and valiantly tried working with Leon & Kevin.
I know they often go over menus together, and Fraser has done this with Anthony too. My point is that it's not the chief stew's responsibility to double check what the chef is planning against the preference sheets. That literally would be like holding his hand and questioning his every move. Mostly the chief stew is just going over what is going to be served so they know what they are serving. If they have to stop at every dish, go look at the guest's preference sheet and check to make sure it's ok, then the food is always going to be cold once it's up there. And they would be doing the chef's job for him.

From what I could tell, Brandon invited this guy to a club or bar where there was a drag show and the guy didn't know that until he walked in. He argued he should have been given a heads up about what he was walking into. Brandon argued he wouldn't need to be told ahead of time if he were being invited to sort of venue or event where there were black people. Which . . . apples and oranges but this guy is there solely to cause drama.
Brandon is in fact the same drama queen we suffered with on Below Deck Down Under. This dude is way too thirsty to be a reality show star.

Thank you! I thought that poltergeists were more known for unexplained movements and noises.
The word "poltergeist" is German for "noisy ghost." But poltergeists are, in fact, commonly associated with being attached to a specific person rather than a place. So moving to a different house, for example, won't rid you of the poltergeist if you have one.

The talking peach and other vegetables was hilarious. But at $2.23 a pop those are some pretty high priced peaches!
I also loved the one teardrop from the cicada after the newscasters got finished shitting all over them.

On another issue, have the other two girls in training ever uttered a word? I've only seen them sitting at the table at tea or waving when everyone else left to go to the beach.
No. Which is why I don't understand the point of them. We've never had one pupil midwife before much less four of them. So if only two of them are ever going to get to talk, why have the other two?
Last week I commented that the two non-speakers were different than the ones we started out with this season but I was mistaken. Which goes to show how little we see of them and how superfluous they are.

I don't know too much about Dylan's skills since he's new to the ship except for the little he tells her so far. We do know he has more experience than Sunny but does he know the ship well enough yet?
Ben's excuse for promoting Sunny over Dylan was that she "knows the boat." But how much does Dylan really have to know about the boat aside that it's a boat? He's been on lots more boats than Sunny, and as the editors pointed out, he seems to know specific things on this boat that she doesn't know. He was showing her how to do stuff just two weeks ago. So "she knows the boat" doesn't really fly.
3 hours ago, snarts said:That said, Dylan can lose me with the misogynistic comments. Ben's the one he should be angry with, not her.
Did he make misogynistic comments about Sunny? I only remember him pointing out that he had to show her how to do things. Which is true.
3 hours ago, snarts said:Fraser's also played a significant role in allowing the chef to flounder. He's the chief steward, which means guest happiness should be his #1 priority. That includes the food. They should we working as a team to plan menus, like we've seen all the other Chief Stews do with the Chef. It's one of the reasons why they have a preference sheet meeting before each charter.
When has the chief stew ever planned menus with the chef? I don't remember Kate ever doing that with Ben, or anyone doing that with Rachel. That's not really the chief stew's job, it's the chef's. The chief stew has to do all the party planning and picnic planning, etc. At most the chef goes over what's being served when it's being served, so the stews know how to pronounce the dishes. Keeping track of food preferences is the chef's job. And we've seen plenty of times in past seasons when a guest has complained, and the stew and chef together go back to the preference sheets and realize something was missed.
I know it's tempting to lay part of the blame for this on Fraser because he's being such an asshole this season, but this is not his fault. Anthony seems sweet and apparently makes wonderful food but, as Kerry said himself, "how many times does he have to be reminded to read the damn preference sheets?" If someone like the chief stew has to hold his hand and help plan every meal then he's simply not cut out for this job.

Captain Kerry hit the nail on the head when he said Fraser is putting his own agenda ahead of the boat's agenda WRT Barbie. That said, I'm not convinced this is entirely on Fraser. I trust Xandi's judgment and even she seems to think Barbie is at the root of a lot of the drama. Barbie came across as very fake when she was talking to both Kerry and Fraser, and even Kerry admitted her delivery isn't great. And that "toast" at dinner was definitely a bitch move.
Ben promoting Sunny as lead was a dumb move. The optics are terrible. LOL at the editors showing Ben's hypocrisy complaining about Dylan talking to other crew members when he did the same thing with Jared. The only right decision in this case was to promote no one to lead. They don't really need one. Bosun and lead deckhand were interchangeable in the early seasons. And I think this was mostly about Ben being afraid to piss Sunny off more than Dylan.
These new guests might be worse than the last ones. And what's up with the guest who doesn't want seafood or vegetables. WTH does she eat?
Brandon seems very familiar. Hasn't he been on this show before? Wasn't he the one who went swimming at night after the stew told him not to? And Captain Jason had to be woken up and pull him and another guest (a buxom black woman who was swimming topless) out of the water and threaten to put them off the boat? If that wasn't him, it was his doppelgänger.
Cheffy's gotta go. He's sweet but he's a mess and just not cut out for this. Getting help from the crew wouldn't fix it. They could organize that whole galley for him and then he still wouldn't be able to find anything. And he consistently ignores the preference sheets to his own detriment. It's not Fraser's job or anyone else's job to keep pointing that out to him.

I'm just as frustrated with Matthew as I am with Trixie.
I'm frustrated with the writing. All season long Matthew has made it obvious there are money problems and Trixie remains oblivious despite his obvious distress every time the topic comes up. It makes them both look like idiots. We're five episodes in already and the writers are still dragging this out, without explaining what's going on.
3 hours ago, Blackie said:I can totally appreciate how children in a crowd can drown and it happens quite often but how these scenes were filmed so badly and so fake it really took me out of the story. Plus it took me half the episode to figure out what a lido was.
The shots from the shoreline made it look like May wasn't very far out. I know currents can be strong, but Cyril and Joyce could have probably stood up where May was and only be waist deep in the water.

Denny Wilson has gotten so big and handsome too.
Can someone remind me where Denny came from? I seem to recall it had something to do with Hen's ex, who went to prison. And that's about all I can remember.

Can't enjoy food, can't change clothes, can't travel, can't pick up a book and read, can't even completely have sex (I think Sass said that about sex once, right?).
Yes, but it's a continuity issue and/or plot point that seems to have been dropped. Sass did say they could have sex, but they couldn't "finish," which was very frustrating. However, since that time, Hetty had an orgasm on the washing machine then regularly dallied with Trevor. And just this episode, Alberta and Saul did it three times in one night. Which strongly suggests . . . "finishing."
Trying to reconcile, I assume that Sass was just messing with Sam. She walked away and he called after her "Sam come back. I want to tell Jay about ghost sex." Sass has been known to mess with her before.

Justice for Joy - was there justice? I'm skeptical about April Atkins, the murderer's wife. I don't altogether buy she was innocent in all of this and had to keep quiet because she was so afraid of her husband. She sat on this for years, she could have gone to the police and asked for protection at any time. (And good Lord she had a scary looking mug shot, she looked like she was possessed by a demon.)
The fact that the police shielded a murderer because he was an informant is disgusting, but what's even worse is telling Joy's son they believed his father was responsible. It's one thing to ignore evidence, it's another to accuse an innocent man to his own child.

During one of her interviews she was wearing earrings that looked like two paper clips. Andrea would be appalled!

I hope Walla Walla's inevitable elimination has to do with him helping the wrong team. He's getting really annoying with that and even his mother knows he's charting the wrong course doing that.
At this point we don't know but it might turn out to be smart strategy on Danny's part, helping other teams. At some point, you know that Angie is going to have problems with a Roadblock. And because Danny has helped so many other teams, it's more likely than not another team would help Angie in that situation.
It's still early days. I don't see Danny making alliances as being detrimental at this point in the race. Now if he and Angie make it to the final five or six and are still doing it? Yeah, that's too far.

OMG. The requisite Company Softball Game episode. No sitcom should be without one, huh? Talk about your tired, over-used plots.
23 hours ago, ProudMary said:Yet another weak episode. The obituary of the week was dismissed within two minutes. WHY would they bring in a brand-name actress like Marla Gibbs for what amounted to a cameo?!? The writers' decision to back away from the core idea of the show is not a good one, but it does seem to be the case.
Much like the newspaper it so poorly depicts, this show is circling the drain. My prediction is that the season finale will be the series finale.
The writing is just awful. I don't get it either.

Being surprised or even confused does not lead people to hide what is happening rather than confiding in their usual confidantes, and it does not lead you to start and stop and back away from it when you start to tell them, and it doesn't lead you to have to blurt out defensive absurdities.
Sure - when he blurted out to Eddie and Marisol that they were going to go find some "hot chicks" that was certainly a moment of panic. But there's a distinction between that and what's typically meant by the words "gay panic." Buck wasn't panicking about being gay (or bi or pan or whatever). He wasn't freaking out about his own feelings and running away from them or trying to deny them or beating up a gay guy because he was aware he felt an attraction to him. That's what's typically called gay panic.
Buck just wasn't ready to tell anybody. That didn't change the way he felt about Tommy. He still wanted to continue on the date.

So happy Flower is back!
I hate to say it but I really don't miss her. It's not that I dislike the character or anything but the season has been just fine without her. I don't feel like I'm missing anything. It might not be the worst thing in the world for them to shake up the cast now and then. It's always interesting when there are new ghosts to meet.
Two really good bits this episode I wanted to point out. One, when Trevor is telling Nigel and Isaac about bachelor parties, he raises his hands over his head to say "party!" and we get a reaction shot from Isaac and Nigel, clearly recoiling at the exposure of Trevor's nethers.
Also, after Alberta learns that Sam and Jay tried to convince Saul to go to Italy she starts to storm out of the kitchen with Saul in tow. But then she has to turn around and say to Sam "Will you tell Jay to leave, I want Saul to storm out with me."
