I would not have expected this at the start of the season, but I think I'm Team Trinity. Maybe she's normally a pageant queen, but she came seriously PREPARED to do poo poo way outside her wheelhouse.

Trinity's just fun. The pageant queens on this show (except Alyssa) have had a grim, self-conscious doggedness that she totally lacks. Also she's lowkey hilarious. This is a super-good top 4. I'm sanguine about any outcome.

This is a supremely good top 4. I think last seasons top 4 was extremely good as well, and I hope this trend continues in the next few seasons. I know a few weeks ago I was 100% convinced Shea would win, but now I'm more conflicted. I think any of them have a very good chance, and personally now I'm rooting for Pep or Trinity. I would be happy with any of them winning. But Trinity is REALLY fun. I know going into it I didn't think anything of her, based on the promo images and the meet the queens, just because she seemed like such a standard pageant girl and I've never really cared for that type. But she's probably the breakout of this season.

Sasha keeps saying she's not funny but I laughed the hardest at "When I think of unicorns, I think of medieval tapestry". I had Alexis in my work Drag Race pool but tbh I would much rather have her off my screen than win a whopping $35.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDvTv59J5Qs I found this and I love it. The "art" scene is one of my favorite Season 8 moments  You can tell that they shot the little art-dance more than once and I'm so glad that they did, because in doing so, they made... art

Maaaan, I hate this part of the season, it feels like it's already over. The final four episode swaps from an actual competition to "oh my god you're all so wonderful and perfect" and the lack of an actual elimination just makes it feel like filler.

There's an elimination. Only three go on to the finale.

Jealous of My Boogie was a great music video challenge, and possibly Ru's best video in general. The final four/three video challenge was always great when it had some weird, cheesy theme and acting scene involved.

I'm so torn as to the winner. I want it to not be something where Peppermint is the obvious Queen to go home but I don't know who would be cut out instead. I think that they film the Finale episode tomorrow night as well so if you are a spoilerphobe like me you may want to avoid Race-friendly places on the internet for the next week or so. I don't know if we're getting a recap episode, I sure hope not.

I'm happy with Shea/Trinity/Sasha winning this season. Peppermint is great, but her runway needs some work. Are there any finale viewing parties in London? I'm just hoping for more fanfare than watching it in bed on a Saturday morning.

I know she isn't going to win but god drat. I personally think that Peppermint is the best LSFYL contestant in Rupaul's Drag Race history. I catch myself watching her lip syncs over and over. She does not care what the other queen is doing and she's so sure in being a woman that she isn't afraid to do moves that aren't normally seen as feminine because she just naturally is a woman.

I don't know if we're getting a recap episode, I sure hope not. At the reunion, they film all top 3 queens being crowned. They also film all the girls sashaying in the top 4 episode. There won't be any spoilers, unless you mean anecdotes from the interview segments, but even then a lot gets cut from the live show when they edit the episode. I guess you could get spoiled on who the top 3 is, but by the time the reunion is done filming, the top 4 ep should be out. The winner doesn't even know they won til the reunion airs next week. We can thank Perez Hilton spoiling Raja's win for this nonsense-- I miss when we got a genuine reaction from the queen after a top 2 lip sync. Alas in the days of spoilers, Ru and WOW must take precautions.

Didn't they film a dual winner last year? That's the kind of thing that I want to try and avoid (along with Miss Congeniality, of course).

They filmed a dual crowning for Adore and Bianca in season 6 iirc, as well as of course the single wins for each queen. I wouldn't be surprised if they film another double crowning this year for Shea/Sasha, what with how many challenges they won together, or if Ru legit crowned two winners this season. However if Trinity doesn't win, I'ma throw a mini riot here in Van. You're right about there being Miss C to spoil, though. But with how many fans Valentina has to vote for her it would be a shock if she didn't win it.

It's lovely for the queens that they have to film a take of each of them winning. You don't get any genuine emotion. And then they only find out in a back room when it airs, off camera. Way to go, Ru, stealing all these girls of their moment. 6 seasons now.

WOW is still a small production company, it's a low budget show. Maybe after a year or two on VH1 they'll get more money to play with. Personally I would rather see them raise the prize money before filming live reunions. These girls aren't thirsty enough with 100k not being as big a deal, considering just being on the show raises their bookings and fees. I want bitches who care about winning, some real competition again. With how overly produced the reunion show is (retakes for interview segments, etc) they would have to do a lot of work to make a live reunion work at all. As it is they cut a lot of content from the finished product.

esperterra posted:WOW is still a small production company, it's a low budget show. Maybe after a year or two on VH1 they'll get more money to play with. I guess that's true. It was really apparent this season. Some of them came, and just being on the show they've already won. I read somewhere that last year Adore Delano earned an estimated $3 to 4 million. I know not everybody is going to get Adore Delano money, but even if they're queens who are barely scraping by on tips from drunk bachelorette parties, to suddenly making $60,000 a year, they're set.

at the end of the episode all I could think was OH, Y'ALL WANTED A TWIST?! that goddamn purple lighting did everyone dirty. Especially Sasha and Trinity; Sasha's pink outfit was totally blown out and Trinity's hair was... uh... look it wasn't great. Fingers crossed that they continue doing the AS2 thing with a (mostly) original song and personalized choreography; the music videos have been stale for ages.
