content

Crazy About the Sea is a travel documentary and allows a look behind the scenes of a cruise ship . For this, both crew members and passengers are accompanied with the camera. The focus is typically on two pairs of guests per trip segment as well as some interns who stay on board for several trip segments. At the same time, the daily work and, in some cases, the leisure time of the crew, the tour guide team and the artists on board are shown. The guests and interns are selected by the production company from several applications in advance of each season.

According to the production company, the series is not scripted and works with classic documentary means.

Ships

All previously published seasons were recorded on board the ships of the Bonn tour operator Phoenix Reisen .

The "main actor" of the first three seasons and in many later seasons is Albatros , which seats 800 passengers and is also called "White Lady" in the series. The fourth to sixth season was filmed exclusively on Artania (max. 1,200 passengers, also called "Grand Lady"). Then voyages of both ships were discussed in each season. In season 9 Amera (835 passengers) is added as the third ship, while season 10 only accompanies trips by Albatros and Amera . The change from Artania to Amera should actually take place with the tenth season, but at the request of Phoenix Reisen, the ninth season was extended by 10 episodes with the new ship (including the maiden voyage) in August 2019.

From September 2019, ARD will have another production company shoot more seasons of Crazy About the Sea on the Hamburg (400 passengers) of the Bremen operator Plantours Kreuzfahrten. This is intended to cover destinations that are not covered by the Phoenix ships, e.g. B. the Great Lakes or the Antarctic.
