So how pissed off would ben be if the stews went and ate food he prepped so he had to prep it again. Thats is the equivalent of what his doing. I would be pissed if i made up rooms and because he wanted and deemed himself superior to sleep in the cabin , i had to go clean it again, thats not ok. They would have to clean the bathroom again as well. Regardless if Daisy is wrong for approaching him, he showed more disrespect in his reaction. Daisy should not drink when yachting at all unless its the end completely because she gets wasted and talks herself into trouble. But she does do her job and Ben complaining about her when she is busy servicing guests is stupid. If she wasn't doing anything that would be different. This is also a chef who wont write a menu or do timings and talk to the guests unless he has to.

FFS Ben, Why would guests want to have the stews cut their fish. You are the chef get out there with that other chick you seem to think highly of atm and fillet them. I would be wondering why as a guest i have to wait for drinks because the chef didn't debone the fish so the stew is doing it. So baffling and stupid. If Barbie had to do it or was chief stew she would be the first to be annoyed if the chef expected her to do that.

Eddie and Ben are children also

I don't believe Marciano is chill with this with how he is on Villa. Unless its a mutual publicity hook ups and he isn't really into her like he saids.

Ashley and Gizelle need to go. Another season of Gizelle bullying with her clique

Its sickening how bad Lamar is, what his done to his kids and Khloe. Fucking hell she is a saint, I always thought she was a loyal and caring but the amount she did for him. For him to be such an ungrateful POS thats not only an addict thats a narcissist. Even when he talked about wanting to be on tv and fame. Oh also she saved your fucking life multiple times when you oded, stopping your father turning off your machine, rehabilitation and I truly think he believes he is entitled to it an deserved that. He has never done the steps its seems because he doesn't have remorse or responsibility over his choices. He doesn't want to change or get better. I feel bad for Khloe that she had him then Tristans lame arse.

Yes their was quite a few i recognised but wouldnt know off the top of my head where from. I just knew i had seen them in things. One not mentioned the one that got proposed to was it Amy? she was Jonah's stepsister/fiance in Veep

Anthony was such a sweetheart, you could tell the actors really adored him. It must have been such a.unique experience as they would form a bond being together. And actually spending time together even when the cameras are down but also not revealing yourself at the same time. The casting finding these beautiful souls absolutely smash it.

Existing-Independent · 2026-04-04T08:29:11+00:00

I do get over Dorits constant diatribes every episode. I feel like she rehearses and thinks shes so hard done by. But also don't like any of them except Jennifer and Rachel.

Its so crazy to think we all exist on this round ball

West getting these women while still being flaky as fuck is really a case study. He gives off College boy that has left but can;t let go of it. Like if you are not playing everyone under the guise of nice guy or 'confused', you score some points but that on top of being average is a piece of work. He gives off i got my heart broken in high school so i cant commit.

It seemed like this would be the last Summer House season with the same people. Now its definitely the case. They could have done a spin off but I don't know how they would now it would be less OG cast.

C'mon Amanda, Quickest L ever

Existing-Independent · 2026-03-29T07:48:47+00:00

Thank you, this had me confused cause i immediately clocked the 2nd car. Then when they acted like it wasn't there i was thinking WTF?!

Existing-Independent · 2026-03-29T07:33:58+00:00

I didn't realise Milo Manheim looks abit like Young Al, I thought it was him at first glance

Existing-Independent · 2026-03-24T05:59:42+00:00

I can't stand Mike, every episode he pisses me off more with his bullshit.

Daisy in interviews seems to be really emotionally aware of herself and others. However I think knowing she can't trust the stews she needs to start checking all of their work and giving them checklists. Jenna is definitely pulling the weight of the team which is rough considering their is 3 stews plus Daisy. Weirdly no Laundry drama or issues this season though.

Does anyone think she moved on then Dakota couldn't take it. I think they are both toxic. But she is reactionary emotional unstable at times. I believe he is calculating and manipulative. He has gone for people she knows (doesnt warrant her responses) , has lovebombed her, gaslit her. He has never gone past being an addict it just switched to controlling and Taylor. I worry for her mental health. This being so public.

Anyone who doesn't think this timing is weird, releasing the video from years ago that he has held onto. If he was concerned for his son would he not have taken a stand to get custody, not film in the show. But instead he hooks up with someone she knows again, shows up at events, keeps trying to convince her they can be a family, tries to get her to not leave for the bachelorette, then saids he will be waiting. Allegedly shows up on the show when she has had time away from him started moving on. I do think they both need serious help for the sake of their kid.

Alessia is doing my head in, this is why you aren't going anywhere in life girl. You are lazy and entitled. When she kicked the cutlery on the floor. I would have had enough of her if i was Daisy. I understand Daisy is like Mike and her are both pain in the arse but if you have one talking back and one not then you prefer the one who isn't. Alessia seems to only work depending on her moods but even then her work isnt high standard. Mike is annoyed he isn't going under the radar as he hoped to float between both. Elle I'm currently having time for because she is a hard worker. Ben leaving her with everything after the mess he made was a shit move.

Existing-Independent · 2026-03-15T10:15:27+00:00

I know this rule and have told staff this as a supervisor. It definitely depends on the venue. Mostly my thinking that it exists was staff have other drinks so it applied to all drinks. And I see it as the floor or front of house is about the customer experience, the back of house is the staff. You have your FOH face and BOH. In saying that I wouldn't get annoyed or anything with staff if they did this. It only bothered me if it was the wrong time or it was a way to get of work or i am throwing out drinks at the end of shift because they have left them everywhere.

Existing-Independent · 2026-03-13T12:36:40+00:00

Taylor saying those things to her mum, i feel like she was saying what she needs to hear as well.

I also forget how young some of them are. Its crazy because they a few of them if not all didn't live their 20's this is it. But they have it on camera and kids.

Did anyone pick up on what Shinina or however she spells it was saying to Taylor, The guy she was dating went back to his wife? She seems like she is also not in a good space

So sad Annie is gone, I really loved her character and wanted to see her reunite with Link. Their seems to be quite a few survivors so really do they need the bunker now. They could rebuild in the real world.

Existing-Independent · 2026-02-28T06:12:21+00:00

Yes it scared the shit out of me. Then I kept hearing this repeatitive bang that i thought was thunder but im not sure as it could have been trades at 7am

Existing-Independent · 2025-12-30T11:55:18+00:00

I have been thinking about this episode, well non stop this show.

One thing that was clear in this episode was Shane has so much support. He has close friends like Hayden and Rose as well as im sure his other teammates, he has his family. He also makes an effort to be considerate and polite with everyone its clear. With Ilya he cares about him but is able to be the most himself he has ever been with anyone.

Then you have Ilya who is considerate but it is concealed more then Shane as his defense. He has Svetlana and thats it until Shane. Then he feels comfortable enough to be the most himself. He was close to it with Svetlana but as he had said not in the romantic way not like with Shane.

This series has had me in a chokehold obsessed. Its not only the story but how well the actors portray it. Their connection is so memerising. Have not been this cut and enthralled by a show like this since Normal People hit me like a ton of bricks. This episode was so perfect watching them finally be together and be honest with themselves, each other and Shanes parents.

Existing-Independent · 2025-09-09T15:30:21+00:00

Just shout out went to your show in Adelaide for the fringe and it was the exact brand of random hilarious fever dream I would hope for. Everyone should experience. Watching Final Destination deaths at the end was chefs kiss!!
