100% agree, and it only really works if the male character is already kind of drag-y, like Little Richard or Walter Mercado. Otherwise, it’s just a shitty drag king performance, with a bad fake beard and chest binding.

“This might be controversial or politically incorrect or whatever but stop with doing male characters.”

Willow could’ve saved that moment of not knowing she and RuPaul did some C-list gig decades ago in a couple different ways, starting with “if you’d read my book, you might know I don’t remember much of my early career” or some such subtle nod to both how old Ru is and how Drew used to be off the rails.

I remember the Angelyne billboard phenomenon, and I also know a number of drag queens have used her look as inspiration for their own.

Anyone wonder if the Oscars might do better live broadcasting for free on YouTube, with commercial breaks part of that live broadcast?

They’re a helluva hosting duo. I hope they tour a live show again.

I’m a little confused by the concept of an Statesvision (or whatever....), because the appeal of Eurovision is the silliness of it all, and American music culture doesn’t really embrace silly, at least not in a couple decades. Looking at the photos on that interactive map, most everyone seems to be playing this deadly…

I think this particular season put it in really stark relief because the two strongest in the competition were out so early. AS3 didn’t have BenDeLaCreme or Shangela in the final four, but both of them made it to the 2nd half of the season, and one of them left of her own volition. Jimbo and Pangina were both booted…

Should forever now be “sideways hanging meatballs”

Did I misread the article, or did we never learn what the question was?

Willow has excellent taste and she’s also really good at playing the game. Honestly I can’t think of someone who has gone through a standard season as smartly as Willow has - she’s consistently among the top queens of the week but hasn’t racked up wins, she doesn’t seem to stress being ‘safe’, and she’s succeeding in…

Remembering how lifeless and joyless she was in ‘Liz and Dick’, trash with hugely unrealized entertaining potential, I remain skeptical about the prospect of entertaining trash featuring her in future.

Curious enough, he’s critical to the history of television as well, bringing the advancements he pioneered in radio into the television industry. He was the principal financial backer of videotape technology, because he wanted his TV productions to do be finished well before the actual broadcast - more time for him to…

For some reason I don’t think of pregnancy and jealousy as “everyday martial situations” - unless your pregnancies and jealousies are far more violent than mine.

Looking forward to seeing your next act, Dennis!

Oooof. That’s a rather depressing commentary on the status of their respective acting careers, I guess.

Rewatched it in 2021 and it was still very funny but in a “this wouldn’t get made today” kind of way.

That....sounds about right.

I guess there really is a podcast for everything.
