It is the greatest gift of 2022 that, on any given week, Drew Barrymore is in a new viral video. ( Watch it here.) The Week in Drew Barrymore It was candid, self-effacing, and mocked Hollywood’s self-importance in a way that I suspect all actors wish they could. “I thought, ‘Oh, I guess it came out and didn’t do very well,’ because I didn’t hear anything.” That, to her, was more believable than how long it took for the film to finally be released.

During the interview, she revealed that she had shot the movie so long ago that she assumed it had come out already and flopped at the box office. She appeared on The View this week to promote her role in Avatar: The Way of Water. I should have expected that I was going to end 2022 heavily crying while watching an episode of Below Deck.įalco gets that. It was such a nice episode and, I suppose, a fitting end to the year. The network brought on someone as prodigious as he was, both on the waters and in the fan community, to take over. It didn’t just swap Captain Lee out for a TV-ready substitute who happened to be on-call. It lent a warranted sense of gravity to the moment. It was also really lovely to see that Bravo brought in Below Deck: Mediterranean’s Captain Sandy Yawn to replace Captain Lee as he recovers. In their reaction to his departure, you could tell that they recognized these things, too.
Fraser is Below Deck’s first openly gay chief stew, and, watching the show, you could see how much pride Captain Lee took in giving him that opportunity. In a previous season, Captain Lee had been incredibly generous with Rachel, as she battled some personal demons that could have gotten her fired, and it’s been so nice to watch her blossom after he gave her a second chance. It was especially touching to watch Rachel, the season’s chef, and Fraser, its chief stew, sob into each other’s arms. As he got choked up talking about his departure, you could hear everyone watching in real time wail, “Dad!!!”Īs television, the sequence was beautifully produced. “I probably overstayed longer than I should have, but I'm pretty fucking stubborn,” he said, berating himself in a confessional scene later for being a burden to their success.Īs the captain of a ship, it’s clear that Lee is a father figure to the people he works with. He showed incredible graciousness and humility as he made the announcement to his crew. My body just won’t cooperate,” he said on this week’s episode. He was struggling with nerve issues that affected his mobility. Since Season 10 of Below Deck premiered, Lee had been transparent about his health problems. I will never admit how often I cry while watching Bravo, but Captain Lee’s farewell episode ranks among my sobbiest viewings. While anyone who watches Bravo has differing opinions about their favorite shows’ casts, there is one thing that has always been unanimous: Captain Lee is the best.
He’s the ideal version of a no-nonsense boss, who operates from a place of warmth the reason he expects so much from his crew is because he loves them so deeply and believes in their potential for greatness. Lee Rosbach has been at the wheel since Below Deck premiered in 2013.
