I wonder what dissertation defenses would look like for writers for that journal

i mean, ginger did have to lip sync twice, so who knows…

#stillnotoverkatya #weneededherthisepisode

Let's imagine a more just world in which Katya was here for this episode. We can pretend that she killed the acting challenge and pulled through with the choreography and maintained the funny amidst the shade and was a good influence on other people and generally just brought it so hard that she would present herself…

I just couldn't with this season. Most of the lipsyncs were medicore in my mind ("roar", "break free", "twist of fate" and "i think we're alone now" being the only decent ones, as compared to, say, season 5, which had tons of hits and only a few misses), the challenge performances were kinda rough, and I feel like I…

lol I loved the sideye that Violet gave there

JUUUUUDGE!

well, while that may be true (though my money is easily on Chachki), does that atone for it's other sins? Like, I can rewatch season 5 anytime I have a free day where I should be doing more productive things with my time. I don't know if I could really rewatch a lot of this season

oof this was a deadly hour of drag race.

Oh I was a Ginger defender for a bit myself. I thought she brought it in several challenges (if anyone deserved to beat Katya in the John Waters Challenge, hers was the only other real contender), and I definitely am willing to attribute at least some of this week's shitshow to show stress (lord knows I can be cranky…

Eh, I think I would put Katya in the top 4 for a lot of seasons, but you're right, not a lot where she would boot out a top 3 contestant, not because she is bad (she's clearly a gift), but because other seasons were so much stronger. As much as I wanna say it was because of how the challenges were structured and…

Eh, theyre hardly perfection but my god do they look good in this crowd. I highly doubt pearl would last as long in a stronger season (I think violet wouldve still gone far, but i wouldn;t have pegged her as the front runner of, say, season 4 or 5 or 6)

OH FUCK THAT GINGER BITCH!

Yeah, if there is a villain choice, I hope they go with one of the more talented villains, like Coco or Darienne (they may be toxic [though Darienne's case is…complicated], but both are undeniably strong in certain areas of drag)

it's probably for the best that you forgot.

Thats totally fair. Personally, I'm on the opposite side of the fence; aside from her (admittedly) killer looks and her being adorable as a boy, I never got too much from April. Still, that lip sync between her and Trinity is second only to "Vibeology" from that season in terms of great lip syncs of season 6

Well usually it lines up fairly well anyways, other than season 5 (Ivy is cool for sure but definitely not at the same level of being a national treasure as, say, Latrice)

Those are possible, actually. Still, I feel like there are so few to choose from, whereas seasons 5 and 6 feel overflowing with choices (in season 5 you have fan-favorites like Alaska, Detox, Alyssa, and Ivy, plus possible villain choices like Roxxxy and Coco, while season 6 could offer up Adore, Courtney, Ben,…

what i wouldn't have given to see shangela take off the head and yell "hallelloo"

and lets not forget what may be the prime example: the co-might-as-well-have-been-the-winner of season 4, Latrice Royale. Bitch runs her own pageant and agency now, i believe
