Just Because: Alex Høgh Andersen
Smukfest wasn't the only time Alex shared his bare butt, he's also had several butt scenes on television and on film. One of best was in the 2024 drama En af os ryster. (below)
The Descriptive Dilemma: Krave by Bob Burkhardt
Rough Seas:
I finished the third season of Below Deck: Down Under this week, but it wasn't a smooth ride. The frequent swells in the ocean matched the ups and downs of the season. I watched the season premiere in February but then stopped. Down Under is usually my favorite show in the Below Deck series, but this year, not so much... I finally binged the remainder of the season this past weekend, so thought I'd take a visual look back at the season. Thankfully, the end was better than the beginning.
With reality shows, it's all about the casting, and this seasons Yacht excursion had a lackluster crew. I wasn't really drawn to any of the female crew members. The chief stew lacked any sort of self-awareness and none of the stewardess' were particularly interesting. I'm also not a fan of chef Tzarina. She's incredibly needy of attention, especially from men, and most of the crew issues this year can be traced back to her shit stirring.
It was nice to see Captain Jason back, and Harry on deck. I really enjoyed both in their previous seasons. This year however, both annoyed me, especially Jason. As hot as he is, and as competent a captain, his supervision of staff was really weak. I think in part, Jason played well off Aesha, who wasn't by his side this year to support him, and put in his contacts.
As far as eye-candy, the season started out promising enough. In addition to Harry and his budgy smugglers, both Bosun Wihan, and deckhand Johnny were hot. Sadly, both also turned into douchebags, especially Wihan. Although Johnny's anger outburst seemed odd, and uncalled for, Wihan was pretty much a scuzzbag from the get go.
On the plus side, prior to both being fired, Wihan showed a fair bit of his beefy butt. As much as I disliked him, I could not help but find him hot, if only in a one and one way. He slept naked, and no issue strutting around the captain naked, changing to ensure the camera had a great view.
Although I understood Johnny's firing, I was little confused about Wihan. He wasn't a great bosun for sure, but he also didn't do anything really horrible to warrant a firing. I don't recall Jason giving him proper warnings and his firing seemed to come out of the blue. I'm guessing the show actually plans their 'firings' ahead of time for drama, so I guess it was time for Wihan and his bare butt to head ashore.
The season picked up for me with the arrival of new bosun Nate and new deckhand Nicholas. Both were hot, and had more positive attitudes and personalities than the crew members they replaced. Both also looked good in their speedos.
Nate & HarryI think Nicolas is one of the hottest guys to mop a deck since I started watching the show. Such a handsome and beautiful face, and a great body. He didn't give us any butt views, but plenty of shirtless, speedo shots, plus his circus act in his silver hot pants.
Nicholas also seemed really sweet, but I couldn't quite get a handle on his personality. I thought he might be gay or bi, but the only romantic connection he had was with the beautiful Marina. He came across as both a bit of a player, and at the same time, as a geeky nerd..
It didn't appear he had much game with women, but he could have been just shy. We really didn't get to see enough of him to get to know really much about him, especially his life before coming on board the Katina. Hopefully the show will bring him back. Curious if he and Marina ended up taking that trip...
