Getting killed is no excuse, but it seems Ward was trying to cover up something regarding his live-in caretaker. Was this some type of insurance scam/hustle gone sour or he was letting bygones be bygones for personal reasons. e.g. misunderstood borrowing of the vehicle, intimidated by his caretaker’s response to…

Totally agree about gaydar; in the waning McCarthy era, where even designated language and clothes could get you jailed or worse, she wouldn’t know anything about 50's gay culture, especially black, as a sheltered upper-middle class white Jewish housewife still struggling to safely define her own brand of irreverent…

I lost interest in the series within five minutes of Mirren opening her mouth. What’s with everyone having late 19th century British accents and mannerisms, for a show set in the Russian golden era?!? While England was busy establishing colonies in north America, parts of Africa and the far east? I’m sick of Hollywood…

What’s with the Knight Rider intro/exit theme song? The action scenes were closer to Miami Vice - trying to remind of us of Don Johnson’s 80's origins? What’s the point if he’s killed off the first episode?

I hope they don’t try to push any more lame spinoffs and let this series retire gracefully; e.g. the geek oriented Ghostfacers webisodes reeked and fan-girl oriented S13 Wayward Sisters was just irritatingly sad. Those attempts ruin the camp quality vibe that makes it enduring and forgivable during its weaker moments.

Agreed, it was one of the worst; like the writers were trying to appease Brit/Aussie Crowley fans while testing the fandom for a possible spinoff.

‘As an audience, we know that Madonna’s “Vogue” was far from a revolution starter and is a very stark example of cultural appropriation.’

Thank YOU! With the jump to 1990 I was waiting the entire episode for someone, especially Pray Tell, to mention other instances of urban drag artists’ currently growing mainstream…

I didn’t buy Angel’s childlike reaction to the photo shoot - an experienced 22 year old trans ‘ho boohoo crying like some fundamentally violated preteen over trading dirty pics for a full professional photo shoot? Though she’s done much worse for much less walking the late 80's NYC Pier?!? I can see her rather upset…

That’s not fair Blaffair! We can like it but criticize it as well, especially among OG fans who’ve been loyal to the brand since the beginning. It’s akin to going to a film billed as an action-adventure but turning out to be a rom-com. It may be good, but not for the reasons presented in the previews. And the…

AS 1 was raggedy, but it isn’t fair for Latrice to shun it primarily because she lost. Many criticize AS 3 for equally relevant reasons, from who was selected to the infamous finale lip-sync competitors.

Thank you for that comment, so true and well articulated! There are many long term fans whole feel the same way and are growing weary of Rupaul’s offerings in general. I gave it a fierce reading on the main RPDR FB page just prior to this season’s broadcast and though the producers seem to anticipate some of these…

I often feel Latrice’s fan base lies more in how they physically identify with her than any actual talent. She is generic in her styling and mundane entertainment performances. Both her runway and challenge looks have a sameness to them most episodes and seasons, as repeatedly noted in post episodic reviews such as…

Loved Manila’s LSFYL - very expressive and reminiscent of S3 when contestants first became notable for cutting each other off on stage. Trinity played it into well enough but she mostly looked like a canary flapping her arms around, especially in that bright yellow feathered jacket. I wondered how she would look if…

Monique’s “FakeAsFuck” comment was truly a meta moment, because it demonstrated how contrived/scripted reality TV is in general. So in a camp bow to an infamous trope of the series, it was brought up but quickly dispensed with Farrah Moan’s elimination. Thus if Gia is eliminated next any “true” backstage drama will…

*Nod* I can hardly tell M&M apart, sans the similar names! Though the producers improved from AS3, this season feels as pedestrian the regular seasons most of these queens originated. Afterwards the following, only kept around to appease their ‘representative’ crowds:

Latrice: “Don’t fat shame me” sassy (Black) girls
Nao…

If he weren’t a FedEx driver during the biggest consumer/shipping window of the year he’d likely be in jail under a enormous bond and this would only be a local news story.

Considering Prof. Galen was getting a lift from a Vulcan transport ship, why weren’t there any Vulcans around during the final space-Mexican Standoff scene, especially considering the Romulans are their descendants? It also doesn’t make any sense no other star traveling races wouldn’t find this little message…

Oh, his howl at the end of the final scene - which I played this brief scene over several times- had me howling with laughter - my heart was racing at both the tension and hilarity! “Jesus...you got something here.” is right!
