Kandy made the conscious choice, long before standing on that runway, to put that outfit and wig in a suitcase with the intention of wearing them both on RuPaul’s Drag Race and being filmed.

I am not trying to come for Gilda Radner, whose comedy I liked far more than that of her vastly overpraised (and unfunny) male co-stars. It was just that reference from Michelle, which underlines two problems with the way that this show approaches comedy: one, we’re given a cute concept (well, usually cute, but this…

No one should be surprised when a comedy challenge on this show is badly written.

And “Honey I Shrank the Drag Queens” is an homage to the 1981 stinker “The Incredible Shrinking Woman”, starring Lily Tomlin. I mean, why reference a classic when you can give a nod to a garbage retread of an original idea?

I have seen Michelle several times kind of struggling with the critiques she has to say this season, to be honest. 

It’s an interesting debate, and one that deserves a place in discussing this show. Reality shows in general edit real people into cartoon charicatures of themselves and offer them up for public judgment; this show, among many, has done an incredibly poor job of protecting them from toxic fan behaviour once the show…

Kandy’s high final placement wouldn’t have drawn nearly as much ire, though, if she hadn’t been so grating and obnoxious and had actually performed well during the first half of this long, long season. And she called herself a “villain” tonight, so she’s clearly well aware of reality show tropes, and is willing to use…

For me this has always been Symone’s race, but Mik has a lot to offer too.

The Judges have been surprisingly kind to the contestants this season, even though they’ve consistently produced some of the worst looks we’ve seen on the runway since they very first seasons of this show. I still can’t quite believe that the British queens were treated so harshly on UKDR2 in comparison.

Everyone clocked Liv needing to go different for the same reason

Everyone, with the exception of Symone: THAT IS NOT THE CATEGORY.

This challenge and the performances were pretty meh. I did think Rosè was the rightful winner of the challenge

the difference is Kandy paid someone to make hers.

Top 3! And Kandy.

Oh, that’s so much better than the way I express it. “I’m fine with faith, but organized religion is a cancer on humanity”. I’m totally stealing it.

Because he’s ineffable?

That line - “What’s the point of even believing in God if you believe He’s weak enough to be a homophobic loser?” is a thing of beauty.

I gotta get out of these comments and seek Jesus. Or at least a blunt.
