with the recent death of the shows theme-song singer jack jones, i thought id give this a rewatch having not seen it since it aired..
i found it more entertaining than i expected.. at least so far. im not sure how it made it to 10 seasons, but some highlights ive noted...
-
cast is introduced as crew, and not even by character name except julie
-
at least 3 or 4 celebrity appearances every episode! its kinda neat seeing all these old stars out of their element in small vignettes. seriously every star you can think of of this era seems to have popped on.
-
the ship is so freakin tiny. you have to think there are mega-yachts bigger these days
-
writing can be funny. the relationship 'advice' is somewhat dated, but not inappropriate at times. 'family ties' mom (MBB) is in a centerfold the first episode!
so far it could have been titled 'the apology boat' due to the wraps ups of most stories almost completely entail confession and apology.
