There are two separate issues here. Yes David deceived his “Wife” and Madison deceived her husband. Allen is by far the single most betrayed person full stop. He’s a stan up guy gave Madison many chances to be upfront. David’s deceptions is wrong no if ands or buts HOWEVER this is a totally separate issue than what people are saying about Michelle. From day one Michelle stood in judgment of David and not because of his character. Michelle is obsessed with money wealth and materialistic things. She was never opened to getting to know David because all she could see was a bank without enough zeros.

I’ve watched every episode of every franchise of Below Deck. I personally love Lara’s perfectionism. The statements made about her confessionals are crazy. They are taped after the show and in order of what’s shown on the episode. Most cast talk trash about the others at one point or another it’s called drama. Lara brings about a class and elegance of service that one would expect when shelling out tens of thousands of dollars for a vacation. She’s attempting to do what no other chief stew has done (Sorry no disrespect to Kate as she will always be the queen of Below Deck). As for Lara’s meltdown, give me a break. (chef needs a reminder of how sensitive and emotional she could get last season). I am surprised that she was brought back due to her immaturity and lack of confidence she has in her own ability. Again every chief stew has had a meltdown at some point and they didn’t have to deal with getting stuck on a slow elevator either. They probably should have installed a dumb waiter for more efficiency but that’s out of the crews control. Lara will survive the season. Most new crew need an adjustment period even Capt Chambers said it takes a bit to get accustomed to the fourth wall of cameras and producers. Let’s chat again mid season and see just who is surviving well.

Christine had been neglected by Kody for YEARS and I am sure her self esteem was all but destroyed by the way he treated her and his lack of intimacy. David has opened a whole new world for her including their intimate life she’s almost like a giddy high school girl and I mean this in a good way It’s obvious how close she and Janelle are and her encouraging her was what a real friend does. It wasn’t in spite but out of love.

I have watched every episode of AI and have faithfully followed Carrie since day 1. If you know anything about her you know that she actually does have a big since of humor and she can speak firmly and factually and can be harsh if needed. OF COURSE she isn’t Katie and I doubt ABC wanted to duplicate but rather expand viewership. CU has a huge loyal base and she has 8 Grammy awards (Katie has 0). Lionel represents R&B and Pop and Carrie has had cross over success in pop and of course country. I really don’t think hearing two short sentences from her one can tell exactly what type of judge she is going to be. However with her being the most successful singer in Idol history she will no doubt bring many fans along with the journey. only time and ratings will tell and not a snippet video.

100 percent agree. Colin needs to return. He has the maturity and knowledge to lead a team and the fans love him. He avoids drama. unfortunately he was mislead by Gary and Daisy last season. He should have been the one that BDSY kept and Gary and Daisy should have been left behind.
