Cruise comedy

[DavidTheWonderer]

If you're cooped up at home and casting about for something to occupy a few hours, you may enjoy a fairly new comedy now streaming on HBO. It is called "Avenue 5" and stars Hugh Laurie (House). The comedy is mostly slapstick and involves a cruise gone wrong.  Thankfully, the problem is mechanical involving the ship, not a disease breaking out on board. Oh, and the ship is a spaceship, not an ocean ship.

Already have seen all the available episodes of this, and it is a hoot!  It is not really a "cruise" as we think of the term, but it is a space ship cruise. One thing I thought about is how do you have a "cruise" in space? I mean the shore excursions nust be really bad, with no air to breath. I liked the part where they needed to throw a bunch of people off to correct their course. Could it have been a Carnival cruise?

I remember an excursion in Barbados where no air would have been a blessing. 😉
