Below Deck #5 ⚓️

[Itsmethatlikesamoan]

Her dreaming about Jason, really??

You could tell she’s definitely interested in him and it’s really irked her that he’s not been falling at her feet and kissing her behind… the Oh I would be mortified if he found out comment, love you are telling Tzarina who is definitely going to tell him and the camera crew… pretty safe to guess he already knows.

Nathan is so embarrassing

couldn’t give a shit about this family based side plot

 

[Restless Native]

I actually think Aeshas face has just aged

Could be wrong though

 

[KerGlr5]

I mean she openly said it on the show, Eddy wants to go back packing but Ben likes the finer things in life.

I'm sorry, but it absolutely grossed me out that Solene licked the bottle of sauce at the beach. If I were those charter guests and I saw that being played, I would have been super pissed. I do like Fraser, but I feel this season that he's really just not present with his team. He should have been on Solene's ass since day 1.

 

[jackssack]

She's just so desperate. I was always under the impression that men find that level of desperation a turn off.

 

[cowtastrophe]

FFS Joao!

 

[Johnson1901]

I see they've continued the style of ridiculous incidental music and SM crew thirst-trap pics between sound bites

I didn’t even finish the last below deck because of the shit editing and even shittier interior crew

 

[Lovenews]

Omg that drunk not good looking guy Josef ordering hookers out to the boat...I hope he gets removed that night.

 

[Lola UK]

They’ve definitely hired her for the drama. It’s very manufactured that way, they know Ben is going to make her cry and that’s what they want. Also why is Ben serving sliders and chicken tenders on a mega yacht?!

I think she should be used as pot wash, kitchen helper, maybe helps with crew food but basically is no where near guest food. Even that would be a help to a chef?! Most seasons they’re by themselves anyway!

 

[Restless Native]

So the trailer has dropped for the next series … which is going to be Med … Aesha chief , Nathan bosun , and Joe as a returning deckhand . Also looks like Hannah Ferrier might be back but as a guest ?

am I mad or did we just have a season of Med before Down Under ? Isn’t it main series’ turn ? Or are we getting extra med because there’s no Sailing Yacht ?

I think its supposed to be OG next but not sure if they are currently filming that one now.

And fucking Joe eurgh

 

[boatofbubbles]

When Tyler first came on screen, I genuinely thought he was a weird doll! Then he moved.

 

[Offish]

I do think he’s grown up. His energy seems completely different. He comes across as very stready now.
He was a jerk to Aesha but people do grow and change. I love Aesha but I can see how she could rub people the wrong way.

Oh definitely. I think if I was stuck in a tiny space with someone who kept shouting about their shit I’d probably be pretty unimpressed too not that it excuses how nasty he was with it, of course. I think it’s genuine too, there’s not been even a hint of the ‘old’ Joao, that I’ve seen anyway.
Ellie on the other hand…

 

[squacksquack]

I can’t work out if she’s behaving the way she is because she knows how to make air time on reality tv, or she’s a fucking fruitloop. My gut is saying the latter

She has proper crazy eyes. I’m sure production edited to emphasise the crazy but they haven’t edited her eyes.

They said they wanted “bar food” on the preference sheet. To be fair they did seem to love it too!

 

[Restless Native]

I liked Daisy in her previous seasons but I’m not a fan at all this time round! Not sure what it is but she’s irritated me

I’m rewatching an older series with Ben in it and he’s not actually that different, I never realised it before though, think it was because he didn’t really get called out and others were worse than him so he got away with it

I think shes been more laid back in previous series but interior team is an absolute shit show this year

 

[raindropsroses]

I can understand why the chef felt frustrated, it was his time off too and he was still doing all the cooking while his colleagues were just relaxing. They should have offered to pitch in and help, or he should have asked them to help. But he massively overreacted, the throwing things and the knocking the phone (?) off the wall was really unpleasant to watch. It does seem that he has a habit of bottling up negative feelings, and it just exploded.

 

[Louanne]

I was following him on instagram because he was funny and likeable in the first series he was in (not perfect, but who is?) but he just seems different and altogether tragic now. Final straw for me to hit unfollow was that only fans launch

I just don't find him attractive at all.
I don't think he's good looking - more average or below - and given the current series, he's not making up for it personality wise either

 

[0121doone]

Don't hate me but OMG Joe I would absolutely fall for that charm (he's a walking red flag I know) but I love him!!!

 

[raindropsroses]

I always think those small cabins they share must be stinking

Especially after a night off where they’ve all been drinking heavily.
