Posted on

HEADS UP! TV IS CHANGING

The list of television shows canceled has been released by the networks.  Are Below Deck Mediterranean and Below Deck Sailing Yacht on that list?

 

MANY SHOWS CANCELED

No one knows the exact reasons for the cancellation of particular shows.  In specific, decreased viewership, lack of political correctness, unpopular storylines?

 

NOT-SO-GOOD NEWS

Per TV Insider, in no particular order, some shows did not fare well.  For example, gone are ABC’s, The Baker and the Beauty, and CBS’s, Criminal Minds and God Friended Me.  In addition, Cinemax’s Strike Back, The CW’s, Arrow, and Facebook Watch’s, Sorry for Your Loss.  Further, Fox’s Almost Family, Freeform’s Party of 5, the History Channel’s, Vikings, and POP TV’s, Schitt’s Creek.

BUT WHAT ABOUT BELOW DECK MEDITERRANEAN?

Good news, viewers.  The Below Deck shows are not on the chopping block this season.

 

WHAT A YEAR THUS FAR…

In conclusion, this year has been a series of challenges.  For instance, the Coronavirus Pandemic, protests about police brutality and racism (think George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, etc), and decisions to wear or not to wear masks (and thoughts of political motivations behind health choices).  In addition, the Australian bushfire, the deaths of Kobe Bryant plus 8 passengers in helicopter crash, flooding in Indonesia, the phases of the moon and planets, business closures, you name it.

 

SO WHAT TO DO NOW

Life is returning to normal.  Yes, it is a “new normal,” but nonetheless, MORE normal than in the past few months.  Yachtsmen and women are renting yachts and going on vacation again.  SO WHY NOT JOIN THEM?  Many ports and countries have reopened to travelers and yachts, so contact us for information as to which destinations you may now enjoy!
