This is not the first time I've heard this argument, but I'm still unclear on why it applies to the show but not its source material.

Hunny, my cishet bro boyfriend was clocking her pads last this episode.

Borderline or Desperately Seeking Susan Madonna would've been a better choice for Aja than that satin thing with the unfortunate fit.

Why hasn't a Latin queen done Charo yet? How was this our first Liza and Naomi? These are the great mysteries of our time.

It would have to be really well executed for Michelle not to read them for choosing a pants look.

Plus Candis Cayne!

Agreed, and I believe that if not for Nina Bonina's burgeoning redemption arc, Valentina would've rounded out the ep's Top 3. Her runway look was creative and far better executed than Nina's studded flannel.

…to be born unto new worlds where her wigs become my key!

For me, it's not just that Alexis is constantly the one doing ranking evaluations in Untucked. A lot of my fave past queens have done that. It's that she so often does it entirely without lightness or humor.

Eureka's injury was probably a torn or pulled MCL or ACL. When I injured mine in a bad fall, it took me a few days to realize it and seek medical attention. She was very likely trying to push past it because she wanted to avoid exactly this eventuality, and thus ignored it until she couldn't ignore any more.

But Ross manages both constructive criticism AND quick wit. Between the two of them, he's far and away the better judge. I wish I knew why they alternate. No shade, but I can't imagine either one of them are busy enough for it to be a scheduling issue.

That eulogy for the broken chair was literally the first time I understood her appeal.

If I ever have the honor of being a Drag Race guest judge, I'm wearing the sparkliest, tightest, most cleavage-y thing I own.

Shawn's gaypornstache is everything to me.

This episode was the most fun of the season thus far!

Also quick drag! I love me some ten minute drag!

I think Aja's arc will be similar to Adore's but I don't think she'll make as far, in large part because I can't envision a standout Snatch Game performance from Aja.

I'm growing increasingly put off by Alexis' Untucked fixation on critiquing and evaluating the queens performances and runway looks, as if she's the panel judge World of Wonder forgot to pay. While queens like Valentina and Cynthia use Untucked to be supportive and uplifting, others use it to get loose and funny, and…

I watched Aja host Episode 2 at Monster Bar in NYC. She dished that she hated and was crazy jealous of Valentina during filming but adores her like a sister now because she's just so sweet.

Valentina reminds of a girl I knew at summer camp who was so perfect that I wanted to hate her but couldn't because she was so damn kinnd and sweet. But I'm still holding out for a genuine humanizing moment that adds dimension to her, even if it's a little thing like when Bianca offered Adore her extra corset.
