Also, this. Before we found out that Tom Meighan is a wife beater.

Bits of this masterpiece were in my head yesterday and I had one heck of a time figuring out the name of the song. I only remembered "Livin' on a...", so naturally, all of my Google searches returned page after page of Livin' on a Prayer. It was so frustrating. Then I remembered Line being in the title, and, suddenly, I remember the whole thing. It's a classic and was used in an episode of The Sopranos (best television show ever, along with Breaking Bad). Someone did a compilation of the kills on the show and used this song. I was traumatized with the killing of Adriana by Sylvio. I remember insisting she wasn't really dead, and my husband telling me, "She was a rat. Rats get killed." I give you Livin' on a Thin Line, by The Kinks. TRIGGER WARNING for graphic images. Here's a different version if you don't want the violence. "But there's no England now."

I think João is a cool name, and it's common in Portugal and Brazil. It's simply their version of the name John. YMMV and I don't mean to be antagonistic. I couldn't find his rank on this show either, not even on the Bravo website. Weird.

SO MUCH TRUTH. I don't watch porn (I know, right?), but I couldn't help but notice that they all walked around with their asses thrust out in a weird way, and not just the gay guy. Is that a thing? Is it supposed to be sexy? That look is just so anti-sexy to me. That said, they really did seem like the nicest people. It's just their job, after all. Oh my Christ. That is not good news about Joao. And I agree that this deck crew is a total clusterfuck. C'mon, guys. You do the same damn thing every single day. Why are you constantly wandering around the deck like toddlers, clueless, day after day, like it's your first time there and you don't know where the bathrooms are? Pick up a cloth and start polishing or spray the deck and start cleaning. Jesus. After watching all of these BD shows, I could do your damn jobs.

Hey Mama, Climax Blues Band (1971) - This is the one I know Hey Mama, Black Eyed Peas (2004) Hey Mama, Kanye West (2005) 🤮 Hey Mama, David Guetta (2015) Here's that 1971 Climax Blues Band album cover. In those days, you had to buy the whole album to get one song, and I did!

I have Meniere's Disease so I'm no stranger to vertigo/motion sickness as well. Pop a couple of Dramamine and go to sleep but don't move your head. The next day I do feel hungover. That said, I also question Adam's choice to be on Below Deck if he knew of this beforehand. Man, I would have paid MONEY to see it. Culver is NOT a lead deckhand but he IS a defender of women. I agree with previous posters that were stunned to see that Joao was Luke's replacement. WTAF? Substitute a misogynist for a sexual predator. Great idea. NOT. I wonder what the new stew does to be called a b*tch. Jeez, I'm still decompressing from these two episode. My fun show took an incredibly dark turn and it was shocking.

I thought about the legal aspects as well. Luke should have been taken to a jail cell for attempted SA. Yes, she was drinking during working hours. This is not good. If she is eventually fired for this (and I have no inside information that she will be so pure speculation), it might be the best thing for her. Go back to Wisconsin and get some therapy and be with your family. Agree to disagree because I saw his actions differently. At one point, he charged at the door with full frontal nudity, pixelated, to slam the door. His nakedness was not the issue IMO. I do respect your opinion about this, @rur. I'm curious. Did these two episodes show SA Trigger Warnings at the beginning? I would have really appreciated it if they had. I was very much triggered to an incident in my past and I was tearful and shaken after viewing. That's never happened before, and I've watched all iterations of the BD franchise.

"This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs." Topic? If Laura is indeed acting, she a very good actress because I hate her.

Paying for an expensive dinner + kisses = yes, that's exactly the way it works! 😄 Don't forget the alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems. 😉

Thank you for validating this. We both know what high looks like! Ahem. It was the '60s!

I was right there with you, laughing my ass off at the b*tch with a tangled mass of hair. I hate her. I can speak to this. What you may be hearing is just the classic upper mid-west accent, an accent that's supposedly difficult for actors to learn. I remember William H. Macy(?) talked about this when he was filming Fargo, the movie. We elongate vowels (baaaaag instead of bag, flaaaaag instead of flag). We do other funny things to words and we have strange phrases (ohhh geeeez, yaaaaahhh sher, and you betcha). It's partly from our original Scandinavian population. I forgot about that. It was not down to Adam then. Your math is correct. As far as Harry, he would only end up with £11,700, so yeah, exchange rates are not fair. ME TOO. Part of her hour-long preparation ritual must be mouthwash to remove the smell of booze from her breath. It looked like Aesha twigged that Laura just had a drink when she asked Laura if she was still drunk. Adam is really green because he's always puking over the side of the ship. Who has time for a boatmance when you have vertigo and are throwing up non-stop. Again, I can relate because I have Meniere's disease and get vertigo and puke as a result. Please pass the Dramamine.

I'm about halfway through but I've decided to start my post. OMG I hate effing Laura. She takes such liberties. Once again, she's 26 MINUTES late for her shift, but she's so entitled she doesn't even realize how much she's impacting others. Margot needs to stop being nice to her, but that's the Wisconny/Minnesota way. I love it when Aesha says "deck crew" and it sounds like she's saying "dick crew." I laugh like a 10-year-old every time. Regarding the dick crew, I don't like that bosun. Did he make yet another mistake in this episode? They don't always show who is responsible for what, but ultimately, Luke is responsible for everything. Leaving broken glass on the deck is such a stupid mistake and that was on Adam. Oh, and the bosun doesn't give a crap about safety? That's a really good quality to have right there. I'm not sure if I want him or Laura to be the person who gets fired. OK then, Laura just took credit for the Mykonos tablescape, when she had NOTHING to do with it because, once again, she was late. WOW, she's impressed with herself. Forgot that she put some kind of green plants into a drinks glass and called it Greek. Great Work, Jan! Was that ooh ooh aah aah chant a bit suspect? What was it supposed to be? A Greek thing or an Aboriginal Australian thing? Really stupid. Awww. I was the girl with an older and a younger brother. My auntie told me I was the rose between two thorns. Made me feel so special. Finished the episode. Definitely want Laura to get the boot. Way to represent Latvia, ya slag. She's got concrete balls, though, asking Aesha for special permission to take more time to get ready than anyone else, ever (drink, vape, hair cutting, drug taking(?), whatever else she was doing). While she was making out with Luke, she didn't look drunk to me. She looked high. The hate is strong for this one.

Oh my god, you totally called this! Congratulations on your mad prediction skillz. Amazing.

Yeah, that toilet. So cool to be able to accidentally piss and shit on diamonds. Jamie is useless, except as someone to tag along with Anna. And that other woman, Marie I think is her name. Regarding the bandage on Anna's cheek, it could be covering a scar from a skin biopsy. My aunt used to get those all of the time. It never ceases to amaze me all these strange healers and shamans and medicinal herb purveyors and strange therapies these folks pay probably A LOT of money to have. But then I remember they're not part of the Western Medicine Mandate and so it actually makes a lot of sense. That and having money to burn. I'm re-watching the whole L.A. series and I'm almost to the greatest episode of all -- fucking Kevin totally his brand new car. Since I know this is coming, I'm also noticing that Kevin wasn't driving a car prior to that episode. He's getting around on a skateboard. Earlier, he did drive. Wonder if he got his license suspended or something. Not an accusation; strictly a guess.

Lust for Life - Iggy Pop (1977) Lust for Life - Lana Del Rey (2017) I only discovered this when searching for the lyrics to Iggy Pop's song and this other one turned up. No idea who Lana Del Ray is, but I hate that breathy, silly women's voice common in today's pop music. So it's Iggy Pop for the win. I think for this topic, all you have to do is go to the iTunes store and put in a song title and wham. You have everyone that's every recorded a song with that title.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. I'm not havin' it. Sinéad O'Connor, aged 56, has died. I refuse to accept this, especially in the wake of the relatively recent death of Dolores O'Riordan. Sinéad's voice is/was so incredibly beautiful, and beautiful isn't even a big enough word for it. I'm crying. It's like Tom Petty all over again. I suppose it will be another f--king accidental overdose. I know she was diagnosed as bipolar and that she suffered from fibromyalgia. I can't believe her voice has been silenced. I love her best when she sings with other artists. Her collaborations with The Chieftains, Shane MacGowan, U2 and others are magical. Regarding the incident on SNL, she has been described as a feral out-runner for revolution. Calling out the pope, in my opinion, was a good thing. I was raised in the Catholic church and it really fucked with my head. Dare: Listen to this without crying:

Yeah, there was nothing sexy about that contrived eyelash kiss. It was so aggressive. Then Luke "apologizes" to Margot and says "I don't feel bad about it," and in the talking head, "she f--king loved it." What a prick. And he sucks as a bosun, too. He's made at least two mistakes that Jason has noticed. For such a confident/cocky person, he sure screws up a lot. They've always used green screen behind the crew when they're doing their THs for production I'm with @pasdetrois on this. If they've always been using green screen, they were doing a much better job of it before. There's one instance in particular that was VERY clearly green-screened to the point where I noticed it immediately and thought to myself WTH. I'm not really paying attention to production values while watching these shows, but I noticed this one.

@Rushmoras, hell yeah. It's all about the West Side. When it started playing, I threw up the sign! Love the G-Funk genre and that west coast sound. I don't love Jim Morrison (overrated), but he was right when he said 'The west is the best, get here and we'll do the rest."

I loved Every Single Character on that show. I can't really pick a favorite but Sister Michael comes to mind. I can't tell you how many times I've re-watched this series. The Cranberries songs were just a bonus. Topic: This. One of my Desert Island Discs. Morrissey's voice and Johnny Fuckin' Marr's tremolo. Masterful. Edited to add a note to younger music fans. The voice you hear in this video is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT A REAL VOICE. This is what that sounds like. This is not a mechanically or electronically enhanced voice. This is a man named Steven Patrick Morrissey singing straight into a mic for a video. This is what ALL music used to be and what ALL music should be. /end Boomer rant

OMG, you are hilarious. I didn't really laugh out loud when I read this, but I did shout HAH really loud. Keep 'em coming, @Tanukisan. You are tip top. Yeah. Not into the Chief Entertainment Officer and his giant mouth.

So much hate. That's Klassy with a capital K right there. 100% agree. They're in a scuba diving paradise and we see virtually none of it. That's the part of yachting we all want to see. I'm generalizing here, but yeah. God, I just can't stand Laura. Agree with EVERYONE that her amount of prep time ≠ amazing results. A half hour in the shower? What exactly is she doing in there? I think we all know. It's just discourteous if you ask me, and a waste of water. But Everyone has to wait for Amazing Laura! 🙄 I'm really relating to Margot from Wisconsin, since I'm from Minnesota. Totally onboard with her never complaining about Laura. We're just polite to a fault. We apologize when someone else does something bad TO US. Also the accent and calling herself Marge. Such a Minn/Wisc name (ref: Fargo movie).

Not to nitpick, but I'm going to anyway. San Francisco to Los Angeles is about 375 miles/6 hours. San Francisco to San Diego is quite a bit longer at 460 miles/9.5 hours, so not really comparable other than to say that California is a really long state, and San Francisco isn't even close to its northern border. I've driven up to San Francisco and down to San Diego many times and they are both really long drives. The drive down from Los Angeles to San Diego is a real bitch if there's traffic, and there's ALWAYS traffic. I love San Diego but I hate that drive. Count me in on hating the themed parties. They are usually tacky af and the costuming is like those cheap Halloween kid costumes they wear once. I can't stand the guest who doesn't drink (should NOT drink). Her demands are irritating and she's a real nasty drunk to boot, as is her partner in crime, Mr. Drunk Speedo. Walk The Plank! Just reread my post and there's a lot of hate in there. Edited to add that I love Aesha and I wish I had her positivity.

So much love for this video. They are totally channeling The Derry Girls going to see Take That in Series 2, Episode 3. This seems like a real rip-off. I just love Aisling Bea. She is one of the funniest comedians ever. She's on a lot of those UK panel shows.

Chase in a speedo. Holy hell.

@Rushmoras, you are an amazing person to take it upon yourself to broaden your musical interests by listening to such disparate artists and genres. I personally really like Gangster Rap and Hip Hop (West Coast, please). Next, listen to Dr. Dre or Snoop Dogg's stuff. It's confusing though because they all sing on one another's tracks/albums. Word of warning: you'd be wise to steer clear of DMX. He's too much, even for me. Or try the girl rap and hip-hop groups of the '90s. Salt-N-Pepa, Eve, and my favorite, TLC.
