I wish I could go back in time Back to the Future style and keep Ro-Laska-Tox from being spawned out of the drag hellmouth. I would much rather have seen Alaska and Jinkx bond (which, maybe they did but little of that made it to air.)

Even without her extreme nastiness in the second half of the season, she has a belligerent and proud stupidity about her I find incredibly unappealing.
Comedy disrespects drag. But looking like a slutty Lanie Kazan week in and out is the stuff of legend, darling.
I certainly wasn't happy about Tyra's win (particularly in a season with Raven, Pandora and JuJu) but Tyra was never this shady.
I agree with your rebuttal but my beloved Alyssa not-withstanding, the pageant queens have generally been the weakest and the nastiest.
The spoilers didn't affect my enjoyment of the show though. I hated last year's finale, and I was Team Sharon.
I love this show but the further it gets from its shaggy roots, the less I like it. Last year's finale was the worst: bloated, over-rehearsed, shallow and boring. The queens sitting alone in a studio are much more likely to cut loose.
Treated like human beings? Is that what you said, Little Miss Voice of a Generation?
Funnily, I didn't have a problem with Jinkx's outfit and I kind of loved the antlers.
Me too! But ya ARE in the chair, Blanche! HAHAHAHAHAHA.
I had forgotten that one but, yeah she was really on laser point with her syncing and moves. Plus, I love that song. Was that the one where she sent Sonique home?
Phi Phi is probably the nastiest RPDR queen ever (although I would have picked her for deliberately sabotaging Jiggly.) It's easy to forget a season or two later.
I don't know if that was her intention (I'd really like to hope it wasn't) but after all of the shit on the show, there is no fucking way she'd win Miss Congeniality because of something she posted in Instagram. She threatened to punch Jinkx in the face last night.
@mr_subjunctive:disqus : we're speaking of Roxxxy, so far as I know. Poor Detox has had enough trauma and reconstructive surgery it sounds like.
I think the exact same thing. Her nose looks whittled off. Independent of how I feel about her, she needs to fix that.
@avclub-736c1908fbbb3c33c217dff33ec717ee:disqus : Actually, I just recently looked at Gretchen's final collection and I still hate with passion. Not only was it ugly, weird and depressing, some looks were just jackets and granny panties. That just seemed like a bullshit way of getting out of designing a whole outfit.
The Heathers thing never bothered me that much, because Raja and company calling each other "Heather" was clearly a joke. I blame all the negativity and shit-stirring for that season on Shangela.
It takes a lot to write something like that. Ok, I'm good with this (as long as she doesn't win because, no.)
All agreed except I would add the Manila/Delta showdown of "MacArthur Park" and pretty much any of Raven's.
I'll buy that excuse for Alyssa but not Roxxxy.
