I remind people all the time that they should feel lucky I still want to fuck them six times a week.

Oop! My mistake. But am I wrong that Visage has used it in critiques? I can hear it being said in her voice.

I should clarify that it was Alexis Michelle's defiant performance in the lip sync that charmed me. Sure, through much of the episode she showed the same insecure defensiveness as ever.

Oh hey, show queens: clock the Sondheim on the mirror!

Thanks!

Though the colors were more muted than what anyone else did, I'm wondering if there wasn't a perceptible rainbow under workroom lighting that got washed out into a uniform muddy-mauve under the infamous purple lighting of this season's runway.

Yes, Sasha's a pretentious college boy (who can't spell "opulent"), but I really feel like she's showing more and more drag-raciness as we go on.

Wow, I've never disagreed with one of these reviews more.

FUUUUCK my stream went to shit RIGHT at the beginning of the runway. Anybody have a link to a clip of just that bit, by chance?

Gah, really? Obviously Gaiman's the genius behind it all but … that seems kind of dumb.

I don't think it really makes sense to tie Shadow to Baldr. For one thing, Baldr isn't sacrificed the way Shadow is — Shadow on Yggdrasil is a direct a stand-in for what the Odin of myth did on his own behalf.

Plus, Shadow isn't all that universally beloved, which is Baldr's entire point. And anyway, Odin had many

Well! The creators seem to share your take on Laura Moon. In the behind-the-scenes commentary on this weeks episode, Bryan Fuller refers to the duo of Laura and Mad Sweeney as "a couple of assholes" while producer Michael Green says "I've always liked that Laura is, when she's her truest self, kind of a dick".

Book Laura is just a girlfriend role because everything she does, good and bad, is about Shadow.

If I remember right, imdb listed her for just one episode after her first appearance — perhaps they're wrong again.

?

You didn't notice the two ravens following the car when Robbie and Laura went for their death drive?

Both characters were vague in the book — it's a weakness.

Truth be told, watching the closeups of her makeup on Untucked, I liked it a lot more. But it still doesn't seem well-calculated for the runway.

I guess I just totally don't agree. I mean, yeah, the basic concept of drag can be described very simply: it's a man in a dress.

As the crowd thins, Peppermint is looking stronger and stronger after a middle-of-the-pack start. At this point I'm far more impressed with her than some other Final 4 members of seasons past. She's more than made up for a couple of cheap pink skirts — every time she's been given the spotlight for a solo performance —
