Beautiful cinnamon roll too good for this world, too pure



Does anyone know if, in the US, if we miss the broadcast airing, will it stream on Paramount + afterwards and if so, how long's the wait til it's on the app?

Paramount + still doesn't have seasons 13, 14, or 15. They encourage you to rent or buy.

What I've done the last couple of seasons is go to VH1.com incognito, and create a account to watch for free for 24 hours. It looks like you can do the same for MTV.com

Regarding reddit spoilers, they've been really wrong this season outside of elimination order. Silky was "supposed to" bomb in the standup challenge, Anita and Vanity were "supposed to" have a big fight, etc. etc.

There's always a little bit wrong because it's all a game of telephone through a really messy scene but I'm wondering if production isn't really giving out false information this time.

what a humorous anecdote.
I forgot that I've been watching drag race via a UK friend screen sharing with me and it took me a minute to register that MTV is a new network for the US version. They've had the international distribution rights for a couple years now.

I was surprised a few of the queens didn't really know how to sell themselves and didn't really get me excited to see what they have to offer. I enjoyed Lucy LaDuca, Jax, and Marcia. Interesting that we're getting identical twins. Never had siblings on the show before, and we're going all the way to twins. Salina EsTitties was too much and I think she's going to be annoying on the show.

Salina was the only one who really made a lasting impression on me in the MtQ. She's extra as hell, which could be annoying to some, but I love Mo Heart and never had a problem with Laganja. Everyone else was kind of reserved, which doesn't necessarily represent how they'll be on the show, but they all seemed nice enough. Not a ton of stand-outs in terms of aesthetics, but that might be due to the promo theme. At the very least, they're all apparently cute out of drag, and there's more of them to look at this season.

The best apologies are crafted with love.
I've heard mixed things about Irene from folks who are more in to the Seattle drag scene than I am but I'm always going to be at least interested in a local queen. Marcia Marcia Marcia, Robin Fierce, and Jax are the ones who I'm most interested in going in though. Salina's a lot but I also don't have too much of an issue with over the top queens, at least initially so we'll see how she plays out. The big queens also look pretty solid at least.

this is an excellent top 3 for dragula, I was pretty sure I was over sadako homages but hoso made it capital-c oval office. still think victoria’s taking the crown but really it’s going to come down to the final floorshows, she could whiff the assignment yet again like she did on resurrection

16 queens for season 15? That feels like a lot and the last few seasons have felt like they have started to drag by the end of their runs.

Though I suppose this means they'll actually have to eliminate people during the season, so there's that

they stick to the spoiled number of episodes pretty well in general, so since it's 16, count on 14 real eps, a reunion, and the finale, however they decide to pan out the eliminations

Well the twins basically have to lipsync against each other that’s just the rules of reality television.

Just saw Dragula and my goodness, Koco is CRAZY for trying that and pulling it off! I agreed completely with who they chose for final three and I kinda hope Dragula is like Project Runway in that everyone in the penultimate episode gets "the final runway" and presents in fashion week to throw the scent off for paparazzi (in this instance, that all of the final five go on tour). They're all great artists.

Koco has been one of my favs this season, but this past episode had me all :wtf:. Just a genuine "Do..
Do you need to take a nap or something? What is this tantrum?"

If someone is screaming at me and telling me they can't stand being around me, then storms out of the room saying they don't even want to look at me right now...choosing to not run after them to continue the conversation is NOT two-faced. :confused:

I think Koco explained herself perfectly in the last episode, right down to why she had to raise it to that level: because that was the only way she could be heard. Which is what happened in the episode before that--what Melissa was saying in the Cauldron about queens being two-faced and shady and disrespectful to production was what she had been constantly saying all season, and instead of ever changing their behavior or even taking accountability, all the other queens just doubled down and got defensive, and then started crying about sisterhood when they finally realized Melissa was shutting down.

It's a disappointing pattern you see in real life a lot, where a person of color has to keep saying "please don't do this" over and over again until they have to get loud to even feel like they have a chance at being listened to, upon which they're just dismissed as "aggressive" or "angry" by white people. I don't blame Melissa for acting that way one bit, especially when you consider all the stress she was going through back home.

I'm definitely not blaming Melissa for lashing out about any two-faced behavior, real or otherwise. Her spouse (so presumably the love of her life) was like "Oh, by the way, I don't love you anymore", which I imagine feels like an ultimate betrayal...made even worse by the fact that it happend shortly before going on a reality/competition show. Being hyperfocused on whether people are being truthful/genuine (or two faced or liars, etc) with each other makes total sense in that regard!

Koco just seemed specifically pissed about the others not following Melissa after she ran off, which...again. Would that truly have helped the situation? Who else besides Koco would have felt welcome to run after her?

I think I'm just pissed that we finally got past the stupid love triangle poo poo and now people are still screaming at each other. :smith: There's been more screentime devoted to people being upset about various poo poo (whether justified or overdramatic) than there has been of like, the art? This season is exhausting and is kinda bumming me out, S2 may still be my favorite of 'em all.

(Sorry for all the words, I'm bored while I wait for my tea water to boil. :3:)
