My family & I have watched all of the BD series since the inception. After this week's BDSY, we all concluded that the show has "Jumped the Shark."
With the exception of the Captain and Engineer, the entire crew is horrid, not an ounce of respect or empathy for all of them combined. The producers and writers seem to have forgotten that the appeal for many of us is being able to live vicariously through the guests. No way to do that when EVERYTHING revolves around a horrid undeserving, selfish crew. Maybe next year, BTW, they could hire actors with a few MORE tattoos.
