Within the first few weeks since Physician Odyssey‘s embarkation on ABC, the medical dramedy has already tackled a bevy of quirky theme weeks for the crew to navigate. Thus far, we’ve seen week-long cruises devoted to singles, cosmetic surgery sufferers, wellness gurus, Halloween, and a marriage, and arising are Homosexual Week and a cruise devoted to rubber duck obsessives.
If this theme development continues — and there’s no purpose to suppose it received’t — the creators are going to have plenty of theme concepts to suppose up. And we’re right here to supply a couple of humble solutions past the standard promenade night time themes like masquerade ball and beneath the ocean and on line casino night time.
Homicide Thriller Week
Step apart, Loss of life on the Nile. It’s time for Homicide on the Odyssey. Homicide thriller events are normally restricted to a single night time with only a handful of individuals gathering in a mansion for some bloody good enjoyable. However increasing that idea to a complete ship stuffed with passengers and crewmembers who’re being “murdered” one after the other all through a complete week could be next-level.
Titanic Week
Sure, it sounds a bit morbid, however relating to large boats, the individuals merely need to hit the nostril of the boat, cuddle with their liked one, and shout these immortal phrases, “I’m the king of the world!” Permitting individuals to cosplay as Jack and Rose — y’know, with out the tragic ending — could be full-on fan service that solely a cruise liner may pull off.
Petting Zoo Week
It may get messy (and in the true world, there are most likely plenty of legal guidelines in opposition to it, however that is tv), however turning the Odyssey right into a roving petting zoo would positively spark the type of quirky well being catastrophes our favourite medics like to grapple with.
Players Solely Week
What occurs whenever you combine a thousand online game nerds with the excessive seas? Nicely, we certain want to discover out! The trick could be to verify there aren’t any computer systems or programs of their rooms so that they’ll need to enterprise out into the sunshine every now and then.
Grand Ole Opry Week
Yee-haw! Nation music legends and followers colliding for per week of sq. dancing and do-si-doing across the decks could be a twangy journey. (The present has already featured Shania Twain and Kelsea Ballerini, so the producers clearly have already got an in with the trade.)
Escape Room Week
What if the passengers all had to make use of their wits and beat the clock to get out of their very own rooms? And what if the eating corridor doorways all of the sudden shut and required all the patrons to work collectively to discover a manner out? Escape rooms are final icebreakers, so individuals would develop into quick pals (or enemies) with this theme.
ABC
Superhero Conference Week
It’s a hen, it’s a airplane, it’s cosplayers gone wild! Think about Comedian-Con however with an oceanic bent. What number of Aquaman and Mera {couples} would we see? The chances are infinite.
Crossover Week
ABC is large into the crossover sport proper now — with the most recent being a mash-up of Abbott Elementary with It’s All the time Sunny in Philadelphia — so what if the medical crew on the Odyssey needed to share instruments and expertise with different well-known medical doctors from the community’s repertoire. Might a collision with a ferry boat convey all of them to Gray Sloan? Might a brush with a barge land them within the 9-1-1 crew’s orbit? It may occur.
