I agree! Ivy seemed to have the highest level of skill in terms of costume making. I even liked that quick change dress she designed for her perfume commercial, and she got eliminated. I think it was the first time she had to LSFL, too. She was likable, but she lacked the wit, improv and other performing skills that…

I have noticed, at least in the small corner of the internet that I inhabit, that the congeniality and good-natured competitiveness between Jinkx and Alaska is spilling over to their fans. Sure, people have their favorites, but I think fans of Jinkx and Alaska appreciate that both queens have talent and have worked…

Well, if the contest was American's Most Delusional Drag Queen, Roxxy would be in a shoe in.

Roxxy said those things, and her tone was sharp and mean. Meanwhile, Alaska won my respect by straight up admitting that she named Jinkx because she wants Jinkx out of the way.

Talisa has potential. She's basically a red cross doctor that has married the king, and she's finally showed a little wit and spark. I know some of the men are no doubt upset at pissing off the Freys, but you'd think a few of them would like a queen that can saw off a foot or bind a wound. I also liked the scene with…

In the cases of Theon and Jaimie, they had understandable motivations. Theon was desperate to prove himself strong to his father and the Starks, and he clearly misunderstood the lesson Ned taught in the first episode about killing. Jaimie was protecting his sister/lover and their children. Joffery? I don't think he's…

Stray thoughts:

I must not be an idealistic feminist because I love Margaery. I actually think GoT does pretty well by its female characters, placing them in a misogynist world and having them react to it in different ways. Margaery wins the prize for being quickest on the uptake and most willing to play the game, although it does…

While I would not place such an add or buy such a throne, I freely admit that my against-the-grain enjoyment of the Robb/Talisa storyline is totally informed by Richard Madden's hotness. He's dreamy.

I should think that if you were Dylan Thomas's ghost, they'd owe you a few drinks as well. (Ghosts can drink in my version of the afterlife.)

Sadly, it's not that uncommon for people in the cosplay world to go broke feeding their fantasies. She could very well have used a couple of credit cards.

Since Dany's parents were siblings, she's probably okay with getting together with her nephew. Song of Ice and Fire, indeed.

Agreed. Even if you are expecting a switcheroo, it's tough to predict exactly how it will play out. I thought the boots might be on Roxxy's queen but nope. The editors are just as playful as the hashtag writers.

I'm so fascinated! How come Judy was being treated by a navy physician? Dave must have been quite a young doctor, and that seems like a story in itself! I wanted more information watching the show. Dave seems like an amazing person with an amazing story, and Jinkx lucked out by getting him as her queen.

There was a big bait and switch in the edit, where it looked very much Jinkx was on track to win a third challenge, while Roxxy's struggles and insecurities were highlighted. I did like that Jinkx's professionalism was highlighted, and that she seemed to make the best of getting Dave as a partner and did fantastic.…

There's also the fact that he didn't make the reckless decision to marry Talisa until Cat made her own completely reckless decision to free Jaimie, which is just as likely to sink the war as his marriage. Robb is still, as Tywin has pointed out more than once, a boy. He's turned out to be good at leading battles, but…

Margeary and Olenna seem pretty quick on the uptake. I doubt they were surprised by the revelation, which makes me wonder why they were so pushy about getting it out of poor, guileless Sansa.

Edward II was pretty open about his relationships with male favorites, and while he was eventually toppled his sexuality wasn't the reason he was. It was used as a tool against him, but it wasn't the reason. Those who supported him ignored his sexuality or went about to find him male favorites. After he was deposed…

Robb only saw his father's "good" side, and he didn't see the ugliness that comes with power or the sacrifices. He and Talisa are both idealists, and they love each other. That's not rewarded in the GoT world.

I agree. That monologue rocked, and it informs not only everything that Cat does but also pretty much everything that Jon does.
