I guess here’s as good a place as any to pickup on the article’s comment that “Perhaps it’s really just that unique queer perspective that Maddy just doesn’t have”. It’s like, how can so many things in this sentence be wrong and yet I still know what you mean. Could have just left it at “she’s lacking a je ne sais…

Aw, thanks. I have a feeling that Kinja is preparing to drop the comments section altogether; a number of my editing and notification features have disappeared over the past two years. 

Nope. I’m permanently stuck in them, I think. 

It’s clearly the favourite pasttime of locals in Tittybong, Victoria. And a new sketch subject for Jimbo!

The episode was fine, but I’m already missing the lighter touch of Production that we saw throughout AS6. No one noticed Kornbread’s absence until they were all assembled in the werkroom? Sure, totally believable, given the shy, retiring character that she is. And the Lady Camden “I’m (not) gonna win this one!”…

The majority of the runway looks were either overly familiar, pedestrian, ill-fitting, unfinished, or just plain bad. Maddy’s look should have been stunning, but instead reminded me of the iCloud icon when it tells me that it’s out of space. And Kerri looked like she was coming undone walking the runway. Kahmora for…

That’s a great point. You know Kerri would have also made Maddy’s look work.

But the rest of the elements of Alyssa’s routine, with its higher GOE, clearly gave her the overall higher score, and the best program of the night. This was a Sotnikova Scandal! A Balkov burglary! A Kerrigan kerfuffle!

I guess I respect that, but I was watching The Pit Stop this morning, and both Monet and Laganja made the excellent point that it would have been incredible to see Maddy to surprise us and walk that silhouette instead. Although Kerri did, indeed, look stunning. It’s just been so long since that look was seen as…

But when did the “Night of a Thousand...” runway category become a tired retread of stolen looks, instead of an opportunity to provide inspiration and elevate a concept? Very few of the runway looks tonight were memorable, and Angeria and Alyssa wore the best of them. Kerri’s dress was boring becuase we’ve all seen it…

The Top Four is still Willow, Angeria, Kornbread, and Bosco because production isn’t letting any of the other queens expand beyond the caricatures they were assigned on their index cards at the beginning of the season. Maddy is Heterosexual. Kerri is Pretty. Jorgeous is the Latinx queen, now that the show has kindly…

That elimination was some kind of bullshit. I mean, I didn’t want to see Kerri go, either, but come on.

I still don’t know what was going on with Manila’s perfectly executed Period Piece, but adherence to “Standards and Practices” on this show is often as much a camp nod to really bad ‘60s Russ Meyersesque sexploitation as it is a serious attempt to tone down the raunch. Blurred male nipples (even without a…

And I kid about wanting a bitchy Untucked moment. But that Serena Cha Cha takedown was iconic.

But shouldn’t it be a Sensible Seventy-Four?

I wasn’t buying what either one of them were selling, but that doesn’t mean that the packaging wasn’t clear in either of those cases. Maddy is like that dented labeless can at the back of your cupboard that you keep shuffling around because you can’t remember what it is, and are afraid to open it lest it be lutefisk,…

June Jambalaya went home, not Kornbread. Although Kornbread’s outfits this week were pretty bad and could easily have put her in the bottom this week.

The similarity ends at their waistline. Can you imagine S11 Silky helping Yvie with with her paint or outfit when she was suffering from constant pain on the show? I mean, the answer is “no”, becuase Silky’s response was to rat her out to Ru and suggest that she be kicked off. I’m really glad that Silky got her…

I honestly can’t think of any, though. We’ve seen lots of people perform poorly on this before, but almost all of them — from Alisa “fire titty” Summers to Kelly Mantle to Dahlia Sin — have been entertaining. None of Maddy’s outfits were bad, and her makeup was fine, but there’s just never any sense of stage presence.…
