There is a Rudy on the Cosby Show.
I don't know if you don't comment here often but usually for this particular show, people are pretty cool and don't dismiss a difference of opinion as "silly." I'm no more biased than you, we just have a different opinion (I am not biased towards Kennedy and I have actively disliked her throughout most of the show…
There is a drag pageant circuit, especially a big deal in the south, where in addition to the regular night club duty of your regular queen, they participate in an array of yearly beauty pageants, basically. And just like beauty pageants, sparkly gowns and more traditional beauty is rewarded, so that's why they are…
Oh I don't really trust Ginger either, she's shady as hell. And she did the exact same thing in a previous Untucked when she told Pearl that she didn't think she'd like something of her's at first! But, still, I just think Max was so much about putting on a character with that accent all the time, I just have trouble…
That wasn't my rubric, that was Ru's. "Just make me laugh."
I have always liked Pearl (but mostly because he's so cute out of drag, literally has me wishing I was gagging, if you know what I mean) but hadn't not been totally sold on the redemption arc (I didn't find her DESPY performance that impressive) but THIS sold me, it wasn't just pilled out, deep voice Pearl, it really…
I don't know if I trust Max's tale. I'm just saying that between Max's very well-timed pep talks to others (made her look kind and human) and Ginger saying once the cameras are off Max is actually a bitch) I just don't know who to believe. It's reality TV and the editing is always looking to tell a story but it seems…
I said this up-thread but even as someone who doesn't know much about region English accents, I know Adele's is real distinct and Ginger didn't even try.
Opposite! How is mocking a closeted gay man (who was actually more of just an all around pan sexual freakydeak) any lazier than mocking a fat woman for eating? I think jokes landing perfectly is all I really care about in terms of wanting something to make me laugh (the state intent of Snatch Game.)
Or Fannie Flagg! I LOVE 70's Match Game and really wonder how many of the queens are familiar with the original show at all.
Ginger's caricature was lazy, tho. She's fat, so she eats. Ha? Adele also has a pretty distinct accent which Ginger barely did, sometimes it sounded like she wasn't doing an accent at all which was unforgivable to me. Her jokes were corny, too, like her answers we just song titles and haha she won a lot of Grammys?…
I actually did read her Essence feature! I never did watch Girlfriends much but I love her on Blackish was drawn to her thick hips on the cover (as a lady with also thick hips and ass) because I hadn't really realized she was so curvy! On the show she's usually in scrubs and she looks quite thin from the waist up, I…
Yes! I was surprised that the jeans gag wasn't mentioned, it was one of my favorite parts! I also really liked when she said she was going to get a pedicure from a white lady as that proves you've really made it!
Yeah, it's sort of a shame that most plots revolve around him being annoyingly insecure. But I still laugh so much his unlikable nature doesn't bother me enough to not watch (I watch Girls, and enjoy it, so I have infinite patience for unlikable protagonists.)
That made me laugh out loud…rubbing it against their faces really evokes something totally different!
I could understand if they said it lacked glamour, which it did, but it was very well thought out and if you watch Untucked, she was super proud of it as she made it herself and it was really sad to see what a kick to her confidence their comments were. I was really happy she didn't go home because the focus on her…
YES I it was almost identical to it but somehow more hideous.
It's one thing to not want to participate in the dirty jokes but it would be much less annoying if she had some character or humor behind it (a la Rupaul's frequent jokes about "compromising her Christianity") but instead she just seems uptight and judgey. Like, I get your character to is old but YOU aren't, YOU are…
Daaammn, I didn't even notice that!
I was also like "Damn, Stan, lookin' good!" but then I was a little thrown off by the jaunty neckerchief. But still A+ would bang.
