Just watched this episode last night. A little arrogant in my opinion. Loving the series though. Edited June 4, 2020 by mkitchy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted June 4, 2020 #53 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I have been losing a lot of sleep staying up watching these episodes for the past few nights! I’m really appreciative that someone took the time to upload them, but am afraid they might suddenly disappear one day so I’m trying to get through them all. The interesting thing (to me, at least) is how is this show is changing my feelings about cruising. While most have been commenting about how much they’re missing it, I have not been, because I haven’t been. I miss traveling desperately, I miss being Different places, but I have not been missing at cruising at all. I think Princess and I are kind of on the outs right now, like we’ve had a little tiff and aren’t speaking. But then, watching this show, I am reminded of so many things I love about cruising and it’s softening my perspective a bit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She did seem a bit full of herself.My wife and I really enjoyed watching the series. Hoping they eventually do more. Timothy is a riot. His laugh is a hoot. Would love to find him onboard sometime.

But then, watching this show, I am reminded of so many things I love about cruising and it’s softening my perspective a bit. I remember going on about my third cruise back in the 90's or 2000. It was on Carnival which we loved. I got on the ship and felt like it was deja vu all over again. It wasn't a thrill because I had been there before. This was just my feeling when I got on the ship. The feeling was fleeting. I had a fantastic cruise. You have been on so many that I can understand if you are a bit burned out. It will be a while before cruising will be safe again. Your feelings may change next year or the year after. If you've never traveled around the US I would say it is fantastic. We did it in 26 days stopping many places and seeing lots of national parks. A few years later we spent a week in the southwest and saw a few national parks we missed. Gorgeous! A definite must do for people who don't mind driving places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLouisCruisers Posted June 4, 2020 #56 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Since reading about this program, I binge watched all the episodes and finished up today. It was great! I enjoyed seeing the Captains and bridge crew fitting these ships into some pretty small and dangerous ports. I learned a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about the time I became elite, the food oboard went downhill in a big way for me. I decided I needed to try other cruise lines...but this series has helped smoothed some of my opinions too.

Many of the national parks in this country are definite must-sees. We have been lucky to have been to all 50 states but DH got a new large SUV last year, and we are thinking a swing through some of the national parks in the western US is in our future when it’s safe to do so.

dritan Posted June 5, 2020 #59 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Timothy was great! We sailed on the Royal back in 2017 in the Med and they were filming a series that summer. My little girl was 6 at the time and totally "star struck" as she'd watched the show. She drew him a picture and on the last evening of the cruise, he came to the cabin with a card and gift for her - really lovely! We follow him on twitter but it seems he has been ill but has been given the all clear. He's no longer with Princess ( perhaps due to the illness) but still retweets Princess related messages and have seen tweets from Scott the engineer on his page. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sburlington Posted June 6, 2020 #60 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Thanks for making me aware of The Cruise. I am enjoying watching them. It is getting me excited to cruise again when it is safe for all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted June 7, 2020 #61 Share Posted June 7, 2020 The video series was entertaining; while no one can cruise at this time; this series brings back so many good times on cruise ships. I think the cruise critic lady was sick; that is why she was not at breakfast the next morning. They mentioned that in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare dickinson Posted June 7, 2020 #63 Share Posted June 7, 2020 My opinion is that they made cruise critic to look like people who critique things. The woman they highlighted in the buffet looked like she was critiquing what she saw and then made her "report" to the food and beverage manager. They took up her suggestion about crepes but they never showed us if they even told her that they were going to make crepes the next morning. How would she know? Not everyone eats every breakfast in the buffet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting. Just watched an episode on YouTube. Such a nice departure from the typical Mighty Ships shows. So Jonesing for a cruise right now, this will do nicely until Princess starts cruising again. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrak Posted July 7, 2020 #74 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Okay, this is really idiotic. Season 5, Episode 2: Young people getting married. The girl says her shoes cost £2,088. That is just freaking stupid. Over £2,000 for shoes. I think I'd just toss her overboard, sell the shoes, and call it a win. I'm glad my wife is more practical than that. (Of course, if she wasn't, we would never have been married.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
