Do I Krushchev?

I watched her skating vid and hot drat I did floor gymnastics as a kid so flips and spins aren't on their own mind blowing to me but watching someone do a backflip on ice made me poo poo my pants a little. I should check out figure skating, it's not a thing in Australia and we don't care about the winter Olympics much here so I've never watched it

This was a great moment during Nagano. After this front running skater made some mistakes and knew she had lost, she pulled an illegal backflip at the end of her routine.

So nice to see just a standard Drag Race premiere! These queens are fantastic and fun so far. It'll be interesting to see how the break changes the dynamics.

I think Kahmora may be dealing with some gay self hate considering the remarks about her boyfriend not liking drag and her reaction to Elliott's voice. Hopefully the boyfriend will be gone or be better in the future.

The way Michelle said "this look TONIGHT" made me realize the balls must take all day to film. Especially with 12 queens. I suppose that should be obvious but it never occurred to me.

Judge for yourselves. I think she's coming off pretty transphobic here.

I thought the UK Snatch Game was mostly good but maybe that's just Canadian exposure to the British pop culture.

I'm bitterly disappointed there isn't a single queen with a cultural reference for a name completely incomprehensible to anyone from the outside world but totally coherent to an Australian

I would love an example

You could really feel the judges reaching to justify the bottom 2. I mean it was probably correct, but "I was expecting so much more from you!" wasn't ringing true when she had a great look in relation to the others.

I liked him as a host but his judging was questionable. Hopefully he'll be successful in his new roles and free of the toxic drag race fans.

Utica being hypersensitive to race mere months after the summer of Floyd is a good thing, and directly paid off almost immediately afterward with the Symone lookswap.

I think she’s great because her utter ridiculousness doesn’t come off as contrived to me, every choice she makes makes perfect sense to her in her mind and that’s charming

I’d like to see Kandy go before she does but even if she gets sent home this ep at least she’s picked up a lot of fans (and none of the toxicity that the fanbase often brings) from her time on the show

It was funny to see Utica go from worrying about afros to imitating Alexis Mateo's accent 2 episodes later.

Just made myself sad thinking how we'll probably never see anyone do Liberace, since even if an older queen gets on the show they rarely make it to SG.

Very meh all around. Even the winner.

Maybe doing it so early was detrimental. The queens weren't comfortable and confident enough yet.

I definitely got the impression that the Dannii Minogue call was pre-recorded and they had the queens react as if it were live. Same with Taika Watiti but it was way more obvious with him.

I think throwing together a debut season with the amount of restrictions they're clearly dealing with was a terrible call. The show feels so rinky dink

We have a new winner: Kita Mean. That comes kind of a surprise.

LSFTC I felt she was the only one who was doing anything interesting. Scarlett spent too much time crawling around and Karen just paced. Didn't really notice Art. I'm happy the nice queen won but this season was a disaster. Except for Rhys.

The winner announcement really had the energy of "we've filmed this 4 times and will figure it out later"

Which isn't new but I think Scarlett would have won if the racism didn't over shadow the season and how it was received

Agreed! This thread is basically my reminder that the show has aired so it's nice when there's a little lead up to the spoilers.

Giving a line read like that is the hallmark of a bad director but I imagine the other queens could have benefited from the judges showing them exactly what they wanted
