criscodisco posted:Was my cable company's feed off or did Derrick not know the lyrics to the song? It looked like he was mouthing "rhubarb" the whole time. As far as I could tell Derrick was definitely saying all the words. Also that was actually a really good performance by Derrick, those pop star moves mean he can really turn it out. Really looking forward to next week's election commercial challenge, the queens pair up to attack each other and I have high expectations after S5's perfume commercial challenge.

Pellisworth posted:Is it me or have the runways been really weak overall this season? To back you up on both points: The stupidity of GlueGunGate was underscored when Michelle mentioned that DeLa was a hot glue gunner and they showed her in that amazing Golden Girls dress. It looked better than anything that was on this episode's runway, save Kim Chi's look (natch).

Marc Jacobs is definitely on my list of guest judges who need to stick around longer, along with Leah Remini (to annoy Michelle), Chris Stein, Gillian Jacobs (gave great critiques) and Dita Von Teese (just because).

It's never been mentioned or talked about officially. People have just come to the logical conclusion that Ru will allow only one drag queen on the panel at a time. If a drag queen judges, it would also basically ban them from actually being on the show as a contestant, and I think they want to always keep their potential selection pool as broad as possible. Only so many really good queens with the broad range of skills Drag Race requires. Lady Bunny did act as a judge on Drag U, but even then Ru wasn't a judge as much as a host, so Ru effectively put herself on a different level that avoided comparison.

The clips of Thorgy the past couple episodes have been so entirely negative that I feel pretty sure they purposely tossed any clips of her being positive or sweet. Not to say she's not a multidimensional person with flaws, but the sudden and total shift of her screen time is noticeable. Sucks to go out on a slightly sour note like that.

Aerox posted:Kim Chi's second look wasn't included in the version of the episode on Logo's website -- are there any pictures anywhere? I can't find any That was my favorite look, and Kim Chi has posted professional photos of it on her Instagram. Thank God Derrick is gone (and she really should have gone through her Drag Journey long before this show) but I love every single one of the top 4, yay!

A God drat Ghost posted:WTF was with Raven and Raja booting Kim? But giving Derrick toots? I love you but please stop smoking so much, Raja. They instantly started judging the outfits based on the queens' record (Derrick's was good...for Derrick, Kim Chi's wasn't unbelievably fabulous...for Kim Chi), which just goes to show why they shouldn't be allowed to explicitly acknowledge the queen's identity. JUDGE THE FASHION

criscodisco posted:No, I think that should count towards a win. I can forgive a lot of mistakes if the guy making them is foxy. I honestly can't be salty about Pearl making top 3 last season precisely because of this. (And because now that S7 is but a faint star in the distance it's a lot easier to recognize that she really is a fierce queen.)

gandlethorpe posted:drat, that Untucked was adorable. This truly is the season of RuPaul's Best Friend Race. I'd say so. (There have been plenty of underdogs but it's usually really obvious they've got Top 3-level talent.) Naomi is definitely the first example of the gorgeous supermodel-type who realized she needed to demonstrate versatility and then actually pulled it off. It's hard to change up your look overnight too so it's obvious she had that talent and ability lurking below the surface the entire time.

I'd be super duper happy with the entire non-Top 3 cast of Season 8 being the cast of Season 10/All-Stars 3. Plenty more time and Drag Race $$$ for all of them to raise their already impressive game.

This is standard BigCon stuff, for better (queens/celebs gotta get paid if only to cover attendance costs and most aren't even close to wealthy) or worse (it sucks to feel nickel and dimed, especially by your idols).

This was one kick-rear end season and I kind of want a rematch with everyone who wasn't top 3 but with all their new resources and expertise. Hopefully the people who managed this season will be able to provide a comparable experience for AS2.

gandlethorpe posted:Roxxxy's dress, however, looks horrible. I can't believe she'd wear that. It's one of many drag queen dresses that clearly has an interesting idea behind it but falls completely flat in execution. Katya's is actually one of my favorite, it's totally bizarre but also weirdly hyper-fashionable, which fits her to a T. (Alaska, Phi Phi, Detox, and Coco are also all on point.)

Stoat posted:There's no way it's not Alaska, Katya + 1 (my guess is Detox or Alyssa) because at the end of the day that's what the raging hordes of instagram and facebook fans want See, this is what's interesting about The Big Twist. Because if I was one of those girls I'd know right off the bat that Alaska is simply the most popular queen (with Katya and Alyssa coming close but not quite), and she (and the others) need to be eliminated tout de suite. But I also wouldn't want to tank my own career by being The Queen Who Sent Everyone's Fav Home. I guess what I'm saying is that if all the favs are the finalists, I hope the show makes it seem plausible and doesn't pretend there aren't frontrunners who everyone wouldn't want to immediately kick off, reality TV "alliances" or no. (...I'd watch it religiously either way of course)

Holy poo poo everyone looks so good Also everyone seems really confident and sure of themselves, as they should be. It's always a bit frustrating to wait for a few episodes (or the entire season) as everyone works through their "first time on TV" jitters/non-stop panic.
