Below Deck Mediterraneanseason 9 has been a long drawn-out season that I’ve found to be pretty boring in the last few episodes, butI think it can still finish strong with a few changes. While there has been drama onBelow Deck Mediterraneanseason 9since the beginning, it’s been a lot of the same issues cropping up on Mustique throughout the charter season. Despite things changing for the crew from charter to charter,Below Deck Medseason 9’s drama has been exhaustingly similar from episode to episode. From the beginning, it was clear the storylines could feel recycled.

While the situation between Bri Muller, Joe Bradley, and Ellie Dubaich brought in new elements from episode to episode,the love triangle was difficult to watcheach week without developments from the yachties themselves. On the other hand, the boatmance between Gael Cameron and Nathan Gallagher was sweet, but slow to develop and less dramatic than expected once it finally blossomed.The work drama between the crew didn’t feel as intense as it has in previous seasons, and Captain Sandy Yawn was the most hands-off she’s ever been onBelow Deck Med.For a strong finish, things need to change.
