It was my favourite season just from the talent alone. My three favourite drag queens of all time are from that season, and only one of those made it to the finale. Despite some villainous missteps, it really was an embarrassment of riches.

This season blows. It's not getting any better, so I'm just going to roll with it until they get on what most people want: A proper full-length All-Stars season. It's time.

I love it. Because it's not helpful in any way.

The asexual possibility crossed my mind.

Oh, it'll absolutely be her.

That's only if you ignore Pandora Boxx, as they did, who was the obvious winner and set the Snatch gold standard for generations to come.

I really like Man in the Mirror.

Of course it's not 'appropriate.' It's television. It's theatre.

I love Katya. I really do. I’ve got a big ol’ crush now. That pain was 100 percent real, and that moment was one of those rare instances of real, authentic humanity on this circus shitshow. Katya. My heart.

And the winner is…

Do you…work for Bacardi?

Well now that you mention it, this is a trait that bothered me in previous seasons as well. Too much back room nonsense, not enough on the stage and runway. At least in the early run. It's a lot easier to pick your favourites after you know what they're capable of as performers.

I'm pretty surprised at the internet for not noticing that it isn't Iwatani. It's an actor named Denis Akiyama.

I miss the Chang who was helping Shirley through the birthing process. The one who was an actual human being.

I'm still having a difficult time seeing what each queen is all about in terms of drag. I'm getting a good idea of who they are as men, but I think it's time for the show to turn up the performance angle of this season. This episode was about theatrical performance, and it wasted a hell of a lot of time on backstage

Also, how the hell has this not been mentioned yet as a highlight:

Apologies to the fans, but…I don't like Minjie. I once dated a dude who did that white-guy-trying-to-sound-like-an-old-black-Southern-woman thing. It bugged the hell out of me then, and it still does.

Also, "Nothing says resort like polio" is the line to beat.

Did anyone else get screwed over by Logo's site by clicking on the damn backstage video where Michelle Visage interviews the loser, thinking it was the first episode? So that ruined things…

In all the back-patting and profoundly uncomfortable rehashes and "tributes," Bill Murray went and proved that he's still the funniest person on the planet.
