Some stars. I don't love this cast. It's a strange day where Roxxy Andrews is one of the 3 I'm most excited for (with Angeria & Shannel)

I've only seen the first ep so far. In my opinion Vanjie was robbed.

Not a great timing for me as I'm on my holidays this week so not really in!

Vanjie was absolutely robbed episode 1, she should have been top with Angeria instead of Jorgeous. I hope Jorgeous isn’t pushed, I feel Ru is just so obsessed she might be but we’ll see. Tbh it’s not that deep this season, it’s a bit of fun for charity and it’s good vibes so far, I don’t know whether it being non elim might get boring as even All Winners was but for now I did enjoy that premiere. Angeria absolutely ate that lipsync too, surprisingly so as that was far from her strength on S14 laugh.gif

Not yet seen episode 2 as I’ve been busy working myself into the ground and barely have the time or energy, snuck in episode 1 and will try to do episode 2 in the next few days.

Just finished the first episode, and yeah I'm really not sure if I can abide a whole season with no eliminations given I'm not really that fussed on over 50% of the cast lmao!

But we shall see, about to watch episode 2 but so far it's really not feeling like All Stars (the whole All Stars premise is kind of becoming tired now anyway), but that could just be fatigue from feeling like Drag Race has been non-stop since last year.

Makes me laugh that you can literally hear Vanjie in every scene of the show even if she’s not on the screen laugh.gif

I don't really feel like 8 is a large enough starting cast for natural dynamics. It worked in All Winners just about because they were all larger than life & mostly already knew each other.

The general reaction to this season is probably the most muted I have seen in years?

Zero stakes makes sense as a celebration of some of the best queens from the franchise — not with these queens. The format doesn't work for me. I understand they've probably been struggling to book talent and need to keep the queens happy but there must be something other than this. The first two episodes were unbelievably bland and I can't believe we are stuck with these girls for an entire season. I wish they would consider taking a year off between All Stars seasons, or at least alternate between a Global/Vs the World/All Stars etc.



Angeria though <3

I enjoyed the first two episodes, only one I don't care for is Nina West. I don't get where her being the threat for a comedy challenge has come from, she just pulls the same faces each time.

Minor spoiler regarding other franchises: another All Stars spinoff with different queens is expected to air around July after this finishes

I think it doesn't help that AllStars chronology wise it's following AS8 which also had a muted response. People were raring for AS3 after the height of 2 and then had low expectations for 6 after how meh 5 was.
