RuPaul crowns Silky as Miss Congeniality out of spite and immediately goes into hiding for the rest of the year. On his Wyoming ranch or in his cryogenic crypt or wherever he spends his off-season.

I’ve been watching since season 1 (only because Tom & Lorenzo tipped me off to it when it came out) and this is the first time in a real long while that the drama/interactions didn’t feel manufactured as gently caress ![]()

Honestly, this season has felt a bit more like the older ones to me. The queens are scrappier and less refined on average but still fierce, and also not afraid to butt heads and get messy. It even mirrors my favorite "classic season", season 5, in how there's not a clear front-runner and half the cast has won a challenge. Well, I'm assuming Vanjie will win at least one before she goes, which would tie it with S5 for unique maxi-challenge queen wins. Another S5 parallel is that Shuga is completely ignored by the edit despite doing pretty well. *cough* Iveeee Winterzz *cough*

It pains me to say this but I will consider it a surprise if Vanjie wins a challenge before she inevitably goes. A misstep from another Queen could buy her a week or two but now that she's cracked the bottom, it feels like a matter of time.

They will probably give her a win before dumping her before the finals after they've extracted maximum meme value out of her for TV

I think it would be even more hilarious if she never gets a win

When a queen says "this is what I do" that means either she wins the challenge or she crashes and burns and I really hope Nina does the first. She's been really growing on me ![]()

For some reason youtube decided I needed to see Snatch Game from AS2 and holy poo poo it is so much better than the past few snatch games, especially the train wreck that is this season's. Ru is doubled over cackling and a lot of the queens are having a hard time keeping a straight face. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9UHFd61c1o

I think it'd be pretty hard for any future season to top All Stars 2, the cast was just so, so strong.

Nina obviously killed it hard in the challenge, but so did Vanjie in that lipsync, goddamn. Sad to see Shuga go, but this was a great episode all around.

Am I taking crazy pills, or is Shuga constantly being done dirty? What a fabricated-as-hell bottom placement. I was actually spoiled that she'd be gone this week(*), but even watching I was thinking "that can't be right, they're doing so well". But then they put in some of those shady Ru reaction shots and no laughs at her jokes, and I saw it coming. Once they started tearing into her in critiques, her fate was sealed. *She posted on Insta that she bleached her hair blonde, so you know she was going thru something, rofl gandlethorpe fucked around with this message at 06:38 on May 3, 2019 |

Yeah nah she was good in the challenge and did a decent runway. I don’t know what it will take to make silky lip synch, ru loses her poo poo the second her mouth opens. Even though I love yvie even she would have been a better bottom this week
|

Yeah, I don't even think Vanjie deserved it either. Silky and Yvie would've made the most sense to me, with Yvie sending home Silky. But Ru is dragging Silky to the end whatever it takes.

Can't wait until she's up against Brooke or Yvie lol at the risk of my being impolitic... Silky seems like the answer to the question "What if Eureka, but black and worse at runways?"

I don't think Silky quite deserved to be in the bottom, since as messy as she looked she brought some personality to that show. (Whether you like her brand of personality or not, it's better to be too much than bland when it comes to a performance) I thought Vanjie was... fine? I don't think she did particularly worse than the rest of her team, but it would make sense for her to be laser-focused when she's the only one on the losing team to not have won a challenge yet. I think I'd pick Yvie and Vanjie myself - much as Yvie put in some "structure" to their show her lines just sounded stiff.

It's also just such a weird thing to go to as your first reaction to something. Silky is extra and that's fine but like, what a bizarre habit.

looks like the challenge next week will bring a returning queen back to the party. guess im hoping for more Scarlett or Plastique? not sure who else deserves another go-round really

I really don't think they're bringing someone back, this season felt like it's gone long enough

Call me a conspiracy fish, but not since Max has a queen done so unexpectedly well in the competition that production had to find the lamest excuse to justify sending her home, even if it made no sense. I fully buy the theory that Shuga was cast as a filler queen expected to go home early, but who gave them little opportunity send home. At this point, it's too late in the competition, Ru has pretty much decided his top 4 and while the two still have unresolved storylines. Poor Shuga gets the chop for not making sense with Ru/production's fantasy.

blizzardvizard posted:I really don't think they're bringing someone back, this season felt like it's gone long enough Yeah, I don't think there's enough episodes for a ruturning queen, unless we have double shantays or go into the finale with a top 5 lmao. Like how many episodes do we have left at this point, is it going to run longer like season 3? I think it's just a twist on the makeover episode. I'm honestly p shook this is only the second time doing it with returning queens since season 7. Anyway Nina and Brooke were amazing, I liked this episode a lot. Though Da Black Magic was pretty hard to get through. Vanessa killed that lipsync e: ^^ I think Shuga has done well, but not that well. She's very middle of the road for me. She's funny, she has great ideas for looks, but doesn't always hit it right. When she does it's out of the park but most of her performances and runways have been lacking in some way to me, even if I like what she was going for. For someone who's only been doing drag professionally for like six months or w/e, I think she placed pretty drat high in the grand scheme of things e2: that said I don't think Shuga should have been btm 2 this week, but the producers didn't want to put Silky or Yvie there despite how much they deserved it. Shuga's an easy btm 2 choice that has a higher chance of no producer fave going home. esperterra fucked around with this message at 08:41 on May 3, 2019 |

Yeah, I don't think she was ever a frontrunner or anything, but I'm convinced she greatly outperformed production's expectations and was not meant to make it this far. In the top 7, she was the only one without any plot armor.
