Tendai posted:Seriously, that was just amazing when I watched it this morning. "It's eight in the morning and I'm watching a drag queen do a chicken impression." I hadn't even considered this, but you're all right. There isn't a clear cut winner this season and all the queens seem to have such different personalities and skills. With that said, I still don't agree with last night's elimination decision and I'm going to miss that kooky queen. I think I'm also the only person who doesn't hate Violet and I'm kinda coming around on Fame. When she was talking about chickens I couldn't stop laughing!

I agree on the elimination. What even the gently caress. Miss Fame has been weird for me. Like 90% of the time I'm pretty much "meh" but then she has moments like the chicken talk last night and little hints that there's more there. Actually that's been the case for a lot of queens this season for me. There's a lot of stunning looks but I don't think there are as many huge personalities, or maybe they're not being edited to show them, or something. Drink a Red Bull, Pearl, this is a goddamn drag competition and it is no time to be chill.

I'm definitely coming around on Miss Fame and Max, especially Fame. Her chicken tattoos are actually awesome, and it's really cute that they're specific chickens she raised. I think the editing has been very strange this time around. All of the implied storylines just aren't coming across the way they clearly intend them to be. They're relying too much on people directly saying things in the talking heads and not enough on workroom footage. Or I don't know, maybe just dramatic defining moments (like "go back to Party City" or Bianca lending her cincher to Adore) just didn't happen in the workroom with this cast.

That's it kind of. No one's done anything to make me go "aww" or "that bitch!" in any particular way. Some of them seem like neat people and many of them have gorgeous looks but it's kind of just not making me pull for anyone in particular. I'm definitely coming around on both Fame and Max though, Max started when he was so cool with Jaidynn during the acting challenge.

I can see how some people wouldn't really care for Max's look, but she just seems like a nice person all around? Like she's always hugging people and making sure they're okay, but at the same time not compromising her chances of winning. She still turns it out for herself to the best of her ability, but also likes seeing others do the best they can do as well, and I think that's adorable. It's just not the mindset you see in competition like this. She just seems like such a genuinely nice person and that makes me root for her the most.  The way she managed to get Pearl to actually come out and show her comedic side on stage this week was just great because I personally think there's a lot more to Pearl than other people are seeing.... I think I'm coming around for Fame too, because now we get to see she's a weirdo like everyone else and isn't just going to hide behind being gorgeous.

anyone else bugged by Ginger's wig choices? she seems to do the same thing Alexis did where everything is a hairpiece simply attached to hair she already has. not sure why, but that just really grates on me. well, that and her shady "compliments" to the other girls and bluntly (in a non-funny way) saying that she wants the girls to head home. it's just weird. Pearl is slooooowly coming out of her shell and it's about drat time. Max is rad as heck when it comes to dealing with these girls and making them feel better or liven up a bit.

From the next episode, something that proves both your points: Ginger assigns groups for the main challenge (performance) and sticks Max with VIOLET and KANDY. To which Max says: "Violet and Kandy...have not been the strongest performance-wise...but I'm going to whip them into shape!. Adorable.

Mrs. Kasha Davis was pretty damned cool, and I was sad to see her go. But this season hasn't really had anyone that makes me applaud when they finally get eliminated. Jasmine went when she should've for the reason she should've. Everyone else on the show is just fine to me. I have the few queens I like better than the others, but generally I don't think (barring some drama-bomb) I'm going to be terribly upset by whomever is in the final 3.

I don't think the playing field is that level. Though Kandy is the most mediocre of the remaining cannon fodder. Current top three prediction: Katya, Fame, Ginger

Kasha's lipsync was better but she messed up some of the ad-libs and I guess that's enough of a sin as far as Ru is concerned. I really enjoyed her but when it comes down to it I feel like we've seen everything she has to offer. Sure, it's the kind of stuff you can never get tired of, but I'm not as upset about it as I was with Trixie. Fame has been cracking me up since episode 2, I'm pretty sure I even wrote about it. She is the dorkiest pretty girl since Alyssa Edwards and I live for it! That chicken song just had me floored, especially since I watched her mugging the camera while clucking just last night. It does make sense later!  and here I thought it was because she was good at raising cocksI am also slightly obsessed with Pearl for a while now and I knew she was going to slay this challenge but I never imagined it would be this glorious. I love her so much every time she's on screen it's like watching cat videos  And now, it's time for a cocktail https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB73JaTG1nI EDIT:

Like, it was obvious Katya was a weirdo (and I'm pretty sure just from her sense of humor and who she's following on Twitter that she has probably had an account here), but I think Fame might just be the strangest contestant in a while. She's doing the "pretty girl" thing so well, but then when she's not trying to be a model, she's just the dorkiest person in the room.

Why. Why is the giant, ugly, reject from the ghetto crack den of Sesame Street Big Blue Bird, Kandy Ho, still here? She's so... unpolished. She's like a season 2 queen. Every other Puerto Rican queen has been leagues ahead of her; this season she's just outclassed. WRONG CALL AGAIN RU. My front-runners are Katya and Max. Still kind of keeping my fingers crossed Trixie will come back, but bah. I also like Violet, Miss Fame, and Pearl.

It's so weird to me that they keep on insinuating that Violet is so awful and nobody likes her because of what she says and does but I don't think we've seen anything other than that she doesn't take criticism that well. You'd think they'd show more of it to make her the super villain of the season rather than just dancing around it with hints all the time. That being said she spoke the dreaded "not here to make friends" soooo.

I was just telling someone last night that they're not giving her enough of a bitchy angle for what they're going for. I'm sure she was very off-putting in person, but that really isn't coming across on-screen besides a couple cringe-y moments.

Are you guys serious? Violet has a classic case of constant bitchface, and the attitude to back it up. She's not standing in the room shouting about Party City, but after what I've seen I wouldn't want to be around her either. I still have no idea what that was about, but it sure was funny as hell.

Mouse Dresser posted:When is Snatch Game? Someone earlier posted that it wouldn't be next week, which means it will almost certainly be the episode after that, if they want to have enough people to play Snatch Game. I wonder if Mrs. Kasha Davis would have done Joan Rivers. She killed the impersonation in the mini challenge this week.

She's young and has her moments though, but I don't think she's gone on the personal attack other than the second episode comment about Michelle Visage. I could be completely wrong though. I chalk up a lot of the attitude she has on age and the fact that she's probably grown up pretty isolated; doesn't mean it's right but it could be the source of her bitchiness. That Untucked episode was definitely more emotional than I expected.

With Violet, it's a combination of: 1) her constant resting bitch face 2) she has made little to no effort to make friends 3) she is the fishiest and youngest queen, so the others are ganging up on her a bit. She definitely is no PhiPhi or Roxxy, the closest to that this season would be Jasmine, Kennedy and Ginger, but even they're no where near the level of PhiPhi or Roxxy. Really, just like how this season has no real standout queens, they also have no real standout drama, so the producers are milking this Violet hate as hard as they can.
