How (un?)fortunate that they filmed this not knowing what would happen merely a month before airing. I wonder if they'll give a shoutout to every drag queen's favorite obstacle.

Also Kim Chi's law firm of Ching, Chang, and Chong. I'm loving dead.

What are the funniest queens (ironically) they could decide to bring back? Early outs who nobody cared about like Penny Tration or Alisa Summers? Vivienne and Honey both come back, with a competition to see which one gets to stay? Tatianna so she can do better at Britney than Derrick on Snatch Game? Actually that last one would be amazing.

That guy who got the makeover that passed out from his tuck, and he passes out every week but keeps getting through because his mid-lsfyl dead drops are amazing.

what a humorous anecdote.
Honestly I expect it to be Kelly Mantle. She's funny enough to at least make it a couple episodes, and is an early elimination that people would expect to go home soon, therefore not loving up the story they built around the 12 "main" queens of the season when she inevitably gets kicked off in a couple weeks.

I want it to be a queen who is really controversial. I doubt would be Willam.

I have a strange feeling it could be Laganja, but Jesus I hope not. Mainly because I could see her having polished up her act and matured a little, and she was a polarising queen that still has some level of notoriety

(I really hope it's Tatianna)

Me too but pretty sure she's a lock for AS2. I think it's going to be someone like Kelly Mantle too, who clearly had some kind of redeemable talent but got offed in the early/mid-game. People like Laganja would eat up way too much oxygen.

An Australian channel has apparently leaked the returning queen: http://www.lifestyle.com.au/tv/ru-pauls-drag-race/episode.aspx?id=9252476

According to them, it's Naysha. Ho-hum.

Honestly my expectations are so low for this returning queen it will be impossible to underwhelm.
Boring but obvious choices include: Naysha (her runway was unforgivable ffs how dare you), Tempest (is she speculated for AS2 tho? people loooove her), Shangela (but merely as a gag and she won't actually stay :(), Willam (lol no i wish :D)

As long as Kim Chi and Bob are around this season remains great, I just hope they don't overdo it with the manufactured shenanigans (anymore).

Yeah, exactly that.

I was once walking down the street in Sydney with my wife and I just started smiling really huge for no reason, and when she asked me why I said "I just thought of Latrice Royale's laugh" and then she started smiling too.

I would be okay with Akashia.
Akashia had a lot of raw potential and I would be interested in seeing if time has managed to give her some more polish and maturity.

Well I can't say that I'm surprised. It's the most boring option. I give her 2 episodes before she's gone, as she proves- once again- that she's all look and no substance.

To my way of thinking, setting up "I will survive" the way they did, and Ru being pissed about the lackluster lip sync, if they bring back someone it'll be a fierce lip syncer in need of a redemptive edit. And my first thought according to that criteria was Darienne Lake. Think what you will about her, but her lip syncing was what carried her through well beyond her performances in many of the challenges and her reputation could use some assuaging.

But then I thought that they could bring back Nina Flowers largely by the same criteria (Nina is a sweetheart whose rep doesn't need rehabilitating, but she could be brought on to put the heat on the other girls with her painting and performing skills).

And then I thought bring back Tammy Brown cuz hey, why not.

I'm wondering how far back in the seasons they have gone with their choice so as not to "alienate newer viewers". I would bet that most of us have watched (and care enough to remember) a lot more of the show than most viewers, but I don't actually have any evidence for that.

Ru is one of those people who holds a serious grudge, and both Michelle and Mathu have stories of Ru completely shutting them out for a few years after disagreements. Courtney publicly disagreed with Ru during the She-Mail controversy. Not hard to imagine what happened next.

Kennedy I'd be cool with, actually. Post Snatch Game she didn't seem as sour to me (plus her Little Richard was hilarious), and I ended up preferring her and her skill set over Pearl or Violet, both of whom I never warmed up to. Not that they're bad queens at all, I just never warmed up to them.

Coco, on the other hand, could be fun in a meta way if I could watch the fan base flip out and throw shitfits. But the fact is, unless she learned a serious lesson about lightening up and not picking fights, she'd be a disaster.

I haven't spoiled it for myself so I don't know who's coming and this is all just me bullshitting as a mental exercise.
