Didn't say you needed to stop talking about it, just that you needed to stop peddling masc/fem binaries of acceptability!

True. Just a dashed off thought I had while reading the review - I couldn't quite grasp the idea that it was a completely depthless episode. There's a comment further down that I think gets at what I saw in it in a smarter, broader sense.

This all struck me as a kind of capitalist critique. King Huge sits around doing nothing but constantly being fed, waiting for a clock to chime, because he can and because that's the status he was born into. Seven, on the other hand, is a travelling salesman whose life is derailed by the sheer bad luck of falling into…

Okay well how about the notion that there is no 'normal' gay man, that normality is entirely subjective and relative to your own experiences, and that framing a level of masculinity that can pass as straightness as being 'normal' is a really troubling double standard that is inherently judgemental of gay male…

GOD DAMNIT, NOW YOU'VE DONE IT!

It's probably because they put him in game show host make-up.

"actually pretty macho for a gay guy"

He'd have to slim down and lose much of his muscle, and let's face it, none of us want that.

His hairlessness is a little disappointing, but I'd hardly complain. Even 2004 Trey was kinda working for me.

I know most people are pretty opposed to Real Housewives shows, but Real Housewives of Melbourne is VERY entertaining. It's quite different to the original American formats.

My only concern is that it's going to be so low-key it's going to lack the drama and immediacy of, say, Phi Phi vs. Willam or Everyone vs. Laganja. The last few seasons of Untucked have had a lot of forced drama but when it's unforced the format has worked terrifically to accentuate it. Also, the best episode Untucked…

I hope she does. She seems funny, and engaging.

I'm living for the severe long black bob with beret look, but docking her 1000 points for using an Iggy Azalea song.

Bette Davis would've kicked those crutches out from underneath him.

It's a bit like she watched The Devil Wears Prada too many times, when she should have been watching Heathers too many times.

My biggest problem with Violet is how she spells her surname. Violet Tchotchke is better in every conceivable way.

She's also serving Drew Droege-as-Chloe Sevigny in this week's look and I love it.

No they don't need them, but a lot of the time it felt like Spacey was trying to weave some Jon Hamm-as-Don Draper expressiveness into those small moments and he couldn't because they don't really exist in the character.

Oh no, it's not surprising at all. Which is why it's so frustrating, but y'know. The show is so forgettable outside of the one weekend a year I watch it (plus the occasional thoughts about Claire's structured dresses) that I guess I neglected to keep its predictability in mind.

I dunno, the fact that he was driving in the opposite direction was one of the few times in the season I actually felt something, probably just because Rachel played the (Almost) Final Girl so well. That they keep nipping the buds of the little guys caught up in their devious political games feels like beating a dead…
