Human Factors
This is no surprise......2 reports in 2 legs. The commonality is the Captain's deviation from SOPs and his weird idiosyncrasies. Everything he did was a distraction and different than what's normal. Both the working bunkie and I were talking; after the flight was over; about how all our attention was paid in watching him and trying to figure out what he was doing. I always look outside but was taken out of my game because of his behavior. At that stage; he had the automation hooked up but improperly. He had only LOC armed; not APP despite us being cleared for a visual. I had set the altitude for the marker. He then requested touchdown zone to be set. He was late on calling for the gear; said he didn't want the speed brakes armed etc. It was one abnormal thing after another and two of us had 100% attention on him. The non-working bunkie was doing nothing; nor did he have his head set on to listen to tower. That's when we got low and tower announced a low altitude warning.
Air carrier First Officer reported experiencing CRM issues became low on final approach with a low altitude warning from ATC.
