Well, we knew they were going to be good. I've been looking forward to it ever since it was first revealed, because they're two of my favourite funny people in the world — but yeah, they were bloody brilliant.

I'm with you, totally. At the start of the season Kim Chi and Bob were in my personal top 4 while Naomi and Chi Chi weren't (my other two were Thorgy and Betty) — but Naomi and Chi Chi both really did grow on me as the season progressed, and absolutely deserve to be there. And having a top four where I actually love

The Current stream was down for me when I tried, but KEXP's marathoning the Prince right now too.

Granted, but the reveal itself was such an unexpected move from Derrick that it basically sold her look all by itself.

The only thing that's ever worked for me is taking a big gulp of water, timed just right so that I hiccup directly into the swallow.

Well, see, I always assumed that David's role began and ended at showing the homeowners new houses — I never for one second thought that he actually had anything to do with the actual buying of their new house, or that they even necessarily got any of the new houses that David had shown them.

My favourite is still the woman who sued Income Property because the backsplash in the kitchen (OF HER NEW RENTAL UNIT) wasn't all a single colour.

Also the hosts on the Vancouver version actually seem to like each other.

And never even really impersonating each other very well, either…

I think that "birthing mode" is what she was trying to go for at the end when she sat down on the stage…but she definitely played that card too late, and might have made it work had she gone there sooner and had more time to play with it.

To be fair, there is a small pantheon of male celebrities whom a drag queen can absolutely get away with impersonating, because their styles and images are so flamboyant, androgynous and/or effectively drag to begin with: Little Richard, MJ, Boy George, Ziggy-era David Bowie, Liberace.

Oops, she did it again.

Or they got a discount because Debbie and Chris were there as judges…

Supposedly, Naysha gave a media interview in which she, while not explicitly naming the queen in question, said that the queen who got booted the week after her had made some pretty snarky backstage comments about Ru having a team of stylists to do all the work for her — and thus not really being in a position to

"Those falls were pure Homer Simpson." Exactly what I was thinking too.

She wasn't a standout for me at first, but I agree, she's totally growing on me much more than I expected.

They seem pretty solidly invested in the "Michelle is the bitchy Simon Cowell of the panel" narrative, for some reason. I'm pretty sure the fuller context of her comments to Chi Chi wasn't actually an aberration — I'm guessing she's quite regularly that kind and constructive and nurturing, and is just edited down to

The general scuttlebutt is that Betty's doing Nancy Grace.

I'm not sure what the sources are, but Wikipedia already has some (but not all) of the queens' Snatch Game characters listed in next week's episode table, and Derrick Barry's is listed as somebody I've never heard of before.

The evil part of me secretly hopes the convention DOES turn into the Shootout at the OH Corral, so that the American public finally gets completely disgusted by what the Republicans are turning into and the election swings way more solidly Democratic.
