That's a fair point, actually. Even so, I think it's probably good for Kennedy that she got to show she could lip sync in a gown - versatility is important after all (smell like Streep - for cheap!) - even though it wasn't that great.

Ugh, yeah, I didn't think I'd so readily stick up for Violet but Kennedy completely railroaded her in this episode.

Yeah, it's making me really mad that she's being left out of the episodes so much just because I'd much rather hear her say stuff than fucking Kennedy or whoever. Although I do know from the Untucked promo that she goes off on the younger girls (spilled tea says it's mainly Violet) at some point.

You expected her to be able to do any of those things in that dress?

Okay, my absolute favourite moment of the week is in Untucked (it's up on YouTube now if any of you hunties is looking) during a big argument between Kennedy who randomly called Miss Fame out for talking too much and driving her crazy, and while Fame is talking about how people are going to have to love her no matter…

I want to like Max more, but all the affect is too goddamn much at this point. Like, in the preview for next week's episode they have to write something for the challenge and she keeps going on and on about how she doesn't want it to be vulgar or sexual. Like, the show you're on is 90% double entendre.

Glad someone else is living for Mrs. Kasha Davis. If nothing else, her voice is too wonderful. That's a real, crafted-to-perfection drag queen voice. I just hope she makes it to snatch game, or at least gets a bit more screentime in the coming episodes because at the moment she's being sidelined alongside…ugh, Kandy…

Sorry, but a #Shakesqueer episode that doesn't use Shakespears Sister for the LSFYL song? You're letting me down hard here, Ru.

I mean, I assume he's been overeager and convinced himself that Patrick is going to save him from whatever puppyish rut he is, or was, in. I guess the missing link for me is that the show hasn't really done much to shade in the psychology or the background of the character for that link to be clear. We know a little…

I mean, nothing about the way the relationship has been plotted out really reflects that, though. Particularly given this rush through "love" out loud, meeting a parent, and then moving in together. There is for sure something else going on.

I think the biggest mystery of this season is what Kevin gets out of being with Patrick other than an 'out' from his ailing relationship with Jon. We know Patrick is into Kevin because he fits the cookie-cutter, like attracts like expectations of his mother/family/cultural background. But what does Kevin get? A…

Nah, he was always like that (and thank god). Go back to the season one finale and watch the scene where he comes back and reads Augustin to filth.

I'm pre-emptively dubbing it the The Instagram Building.

I really recommend rewatching the penultimate episode of season one and contrasting it with this episode. Lots of interesting little visual parallels.

I mean, bummer for you, musicals are fun. I just don't buy this #masc-centric argument that the idea that gay men writ large like musicals is a bad thing. Oh, we enjoy art? How dare you make such a generalisation etc. etc.

Wait, really? I thought this was the worst episode yet. Dull and haphazard, too relentlessly focused on the family melodrama which has never been all that compelling, and then the pulled gun twist was ludicrous. It's like a jenga tower getting too high. At least Naomi Campbell has gone to not be able to act somewhere…

It also has Titus engage in classes to help him pass as straight, so it cuts both ways - I think it's very much toying with stereotypes rather than promoting or reinforcing one or the other. That the show might make jokes of that nature just tells me that because Titus is essentially the male lead it's privileging his…

Yes, some gay men like sports. But are sports predominantly a straight guy thing? Absolutely. Gay men are barely even allowed to play sports professionally. I don't think the jokes are as unironic as you think. And on the other hand, neither myself nor any gay men I know - even the ones who love sports - dislike…

She's really good in Untucked this week, too. I was on the fence as well and now I'm moving into tentative 'like'.

Combine that with the fact that she's an on-record transphobe, she's pretty much dead to me at this point: http://www.reddit.com/r/rup…
