Is that the first time they interspersed a queen's confessional disagreeing with the judges during the judges' praise of a other queen? (Also I'd be mad too, since Megami didn't deserve the bottom) Edit: wtf, gobsmacked at the winner and bottom 2 choices and lip sync result!!!

I don't know, nobody did particularly bad. The worst runway was probably Xunami, but it seemed pretty clear that the bottom 2 was decided based on history in the game, and while the safe queen did some pretty egregious errors during the lip sync, it was still a more interesting performance than the eliminated queen.

Ugh, I'm just annoyed that all the non-contender queens I find interesting keep going home while a bunch continuously skate by on safe. I think it's pretty obvious at this point who's the top 4. So now it's just a bunch of safe bitches' time running out. Re: the winner - I'm actually happy for Plasma and am charmed at how earnest a theater geek she is. I thought Sapphira edged her out a bit on the runway and being funnier with her role, but Plasma earned it and had her best look so far. Mostly I'm surprised that Ru is giving a BFA queen wins Untucked: lol! How did production let Dragula stickers get screentime? gandlethorpe fucked around with this message at 06:59 on Feb 17, 2024 |

I knew the eliminated queen was going out within the first 5 minutes episode because of the edit. It's like Survivor where they don't even try and give an even edit to the entire cast, they only include those who contribute to the overall story of the season. The final 5 is obvious at this point, although I don't see a clear winner's edit just yet.

I didn't think Megami deserved the bottom either. I agree no one did particularly bad but then if we're talking about performance history some other queens have been safe week after week after week and Megami at least had a major role in securing the girl group episode win. I'm also just gonna say it. Last ep was already a bit iffy with the way they were criticizing the big girls for things related to their size, and then now two big girls went home in a row. Geneva may have deserved the bottom 2 last ep regardless but they clearly could've nitpicked anybody this ep and they intentionally chose Megami. It frankly doesn't look good on the show.

Ooooh lord I am not happy with the judging this US episode. As the resident Megami stan, I knew the edit was setting up for her elimination, which was frankly bullshit. I don’t understand what Michelle’s critique about her face being the same was about and Mhiya’s lipsync was messy for me. I think the edit was really trying to paint Megami as a bitch for all her reads but she was speaking loving facts. I lived for her Buzz Lightyear and Q’ “choreography” comments. They were trying to portray her as a bitter betty but gently caress it, I love Megami and I am fully biased. I am glad that Plasma got the win she deserved. She destroyed that challenge and having to pick up so much loving choreo in such little time is amazing. I was worried she was going to be edited as insufferable ala Loosey but with having two wins this early, she might have winner equity. Also, I’m really enjoying UK vs the World 2, though I am sad at who was eliminated. We need more Internstional queens on All Stars seasons.

US16(?): I was actually expecting Saphirra to win just because she made her side role so big but in a just world Plasma should have won and it turns out she did. gently caress drag shows she honestly could just be on Broadway with the way she handles herself on stage. The smoothness of her movements like sitting down in her chair and the way she keeps emoting when the focus isn't on her is perfect. The writing was on the wall for Megami she was in there way too long. And now production has their verified hitman with Mhia so they'll just send her to get rid of about queens they're done with. Still think it's extremely funny that Plane Jane redeemed her what appeared to be tryhard villain edit by explaining she just uncontrollably says whatever comes to mind without thinking about the repercussions until afterwards.

I love the Rusical episodes. No one really stood out as awful this week but the right queen went home imo. I woulda dumped Megami a few weeks back tbh, her drag feels really amateurish compared to most of the others. Like Jane wasn't wrong when she said her talent was literally just holding up cardboard. Plasma loving ate like everyone knew she was gonna. Mother Sapphiria was fab. Q's runway look blew my mind but she really didn't do any choero lol I loved Mhi'ya's lip sync even more than last week's. It's insane that she can be a total ball of nothing 95% of the time and then find this massive spark in super specific situations

Rigga. loving. Morris. ALL AROUND!! UKvTW: How was Scarlett safe and not top 3? How were Tia Kofi and Jonbers safe and not bottom 3? For that matter, how was Hannah Conda not bottom also overall, as in bottom 2? I get Tia Kofi, considering she respected a fellow queen who passed before her time (RIP), but still! That leaves Jonbers and Hannah, who were arguably worse than Choriza May. I had a bone to pick with Michelle for her pithy little comments. In this one, she said two that annoyed me. One was criticizing the face that they couldn't see La Grande Dame's eyes in the Alien look. Did you not SEE the production value and accuracy, made into drag fabulosity?! Not to mention criticizing Marina for her villain look because she didn't get the cultural reference. UGH. I didn't either, but I can look it up, or if not, just gaze upon the beauty and infer, dammit. Sad to see Arantxa go so early. I wish Keta had won the lipsync, because with Arantxa lending her the pattern she used to win, it was easier to imagine Keta picking her to stay. Still, my top choice for top 2 would have been Scarlett and LGD and had Scarlett won, she would have taken out the bigger competition (Choriza), thus leaving me my Arantxa. Oh well. RPDR16: Simple. Morphine should have been bottom. They kept the BBL queen for drama. Plasma deserved the win; she did the most work and it was perfection. I would have felt bad awarding it to Sapphira, who did more with a smaller part, but didn't have to remember so many lines or dance as much. Also, another Michelle comment that rubbed me the wrong way. She criticized Megami's eyes being the same, but gurl, they weren't. And even if they were, you don't lambast other queens, like Kim Chi, Trixie, or Dawn for sticking to an aesthetic. I get that M'hyia is a beast in the lip syncs. But GURL. Shoes. Stay. On. It's easier to dance church and pull stunts barefoot. That's not the point though. The point is to keep the aesthetic clean and emote the song, whether there's tricks or not. Megami did the drat thing and deserved to stay. No tea, no shade, but Mh'iya is going to lipsync her way to the top, a la Kameron Michaels and thanks, I hate it. UGHHHH.

lowkey at this point I'm basically just watching Drag Race so I can watch Pit Stop with context, but this might have been the best rusical? Great music all around and Sapphira absolutely ran away with the entire show. If Plasma hadn't had that loving incredible Dolly Levi dress I think Sapphira would've been a clear win.

I’d put money on Mh’iya leaving next week regardless of the quality of the lip sync. Producers are annoyed the clear “bottom” group won the girl group challenge and are sending home the “non-contenders” from that group back to back to back.

You know, it would actually be hilarious if Xunami made it to the end being SAFE every episode, and if production accommodated it by sending her to Untucked even after the point where they usually critique everyone as a top/bottom.

This may very well be the best rusical ever. I had no problem with the bottom two purely for riga morris reasons -- neither girl was going to transcend her limitations and have a confidence glow-up over the season so why not get rid of them now? And when Mhi'ya nailed the emotional trajectory of the song through her facial expressions and body language and Megami gave sad face the whole time I knew Meg was the one to leave. But next week is snatch game and I have no confidence Mhi'ya has any idea how to navigate it, so she's my next to go. I'm a little surprised I didn't take more to Megami over our shared love of SMT games, but I didn't. She seems very sweet and I wish her well, and that' s kinda it. Runway was great and I ADORED Nymphia's and Sapphira's looks. I want them to be top 2.

One thing to consider: You don't bring someone like Mhi'ya on and not give them ample time to show off their main strength which would take place during the LSFYLs. Next time she should go home, as she's not good at Drag Race, which is completely fine. I'm glad she's getting the boost from the show because she's an amazing performer.

I just realized that Q and Mhi'ya have nearly the opposite track record at this point. Q's been in the top every episode except for one bottom 2, while Mhi'ya's been in the bottom every possible episode except one win. Along with Xunami's SAFEx6 and Geneva being anything but safe in 5 episodes, this season has some funny track records.

A Snatch Game win is a major turning point for a queen. It doesn't always predict a win for the final crown, but it looks great on your resume. But because of this win, I think I might actually think I'm Team Plane Jane. But I'm still living for Sapphira and Nymphia. I thought Sapphira and Mhiya stood a very good chance at winning though. That said, I don't think either of the bottom two deserved to be in the bottom two, and I'm confused to as why Dawn and Q weren't in the bottom given that they didn't seem to get a single laugh. Morphine actually did get laughs, her problem was just that they became repetitive. Plasma and Nymphia also didn't seem to get any laughs, but they were at least committed to the characters. I can't believe we had to wait until season 16 for that song though. Goth next week!
