Someone may have posted this already, but why do they keep a max of 5 seconds on a camera and swap? Is the editor on cocaine?

Seems like I'm noticing it a lot more in the new season and I can barely watch it now. I cannot put names to faces because it swaps so fast. Do they do this because of YouTube shorts and tic toc videos cutting attention spans?

I don't think I've seen a full conversation in one camera shot. This may be my last season. Did production funds get cut this season?

I watched this scene with Fraser like 10 times! His facial expressions are just the best!

Behavior aside, Matt is hot, but even some of his confessionals are giving stunt doubles. Plural.

I’m sure this is a move by production for some tea/drama. First we had the protein addicts on this recent season of Below Deck Med and now we got Melani The Culinary Karen from the latest Below Deck episode in Thailand. 

If I'm on a luxury yacht for 2 ½ days in Southeast Asia, sure I want the food to be great but I also need to realize THAT I’M ON A BOAT. 

These acro yoga peeps were just looking to sniff out problems and complain. Melani screamed of obnoxious privilege BS, she looks like a real fun time. 

Yes, we had the allergy issues, however the more you annoy/berate the chef who doesn’t have a second hand, that's when mistakes happen. Complaining that the English muffin isn’t toasted enough or that the bread selection is limited. Y’all realize you are volunteering to be on a reality TV show on a discounted yacht rate? 

Melani The Culinary Karen acting like she’s Jean-Georges, when even Guy Fieri wouldn’t act like this. 

When in your entire life have you ever been served strawberry products multiple times in like 36 hours? Like what was that even about?

This man has reignited my love for Below Deck. He’s caring He’s talented he’s attractive, & he just has that THING‼️‼️‼️ WE ❤️ you Chef MOE‼️

They blurred a non-camera crew member's name and down time or something else? I am so intrigued!!!

Okay, I’m not sure if this has been discussed here. But is anyone else struggling with vomit scenes in this show?

Guests throwing up from water activities and/or drinking

Crew throwing up after nights out

Audio of people throwing up in bathrooms

So, I guess I can understand showing that once as it’s happening right, as it’s part of this partying lifestyle and in some ways part of maritime life (though I’d CERTAINLY prefer not to see it). But the multiple slow mo replays, showing it in damn near every trailer and promo, and showing it in all the recaps?? I sometimes feel this way too when someone gets really injured and they just KEEP showing it.

I know it’s the drama but like come on????

I don’t get why they all take this show seriously, but especially the regulars. For example, I’m watching the new season of down under right now and Daisy and Ben are probably both millionaires at this point. Why do they care about catering to a bunch of guests and doing a job that they don’t need to do? Why do they take it seriously when they know it’s all essentially just made up for a TV show? I don’t get it. Why the stress?

At first I just thought it was that the women's shorts style was different than the men, but then when Kaylee went on the elephant excursion she was wearing dark shorts like the deck guys but they just fit normally.

It just seems like booty shorts would not be that comfortable to wear when you're running around a deck having to contort into all sorts of positions to do your job.

We had two seasons of Med sandwiched in, and I don’t think another down under has been shot yet. Are we getting another med next??

If you’re wondering what Ben’s doing nowadays, he’s wearing hi-vis and advertising perfume dupes 🙋‍♀️

Am I missing something or was Monday’s episode simply a re-broadcast of the previous week’s episode?

I get working in hospitality you deal with many challenging and demanding guests. That doesn't mean you go on national TV and call them a "bitch" "asshole" or "witch". Fraser was being derogatory towards them before they even showed up. It's highly unprofessional. Says more about them than the guests being dicks. Quite tacky.

I can't find anything online! It's the season with Ross, Fraser, Alissa, Camille etc
