We're finally back later this week as the queens play the iconic Snatch Game, but will somebody finally go home? Who will get the elusive Snatch Game win, and who will bomb and crash out?


Promo has shown the characters to be:

Denali: Jonathan Van Ness
Elliott: Rue McClanahan (Blanche Devereaux)
Gottmik: Paris Hilton
Kandy: Patrick Starr (the way I didn't know this was a makeup Youtuber and I thought of Spongebob lmaoooo)
Olivia: Tabitha Brown
Rosé: Mary Queen Of Scots
Symone: Harriet Tubman
Tina: Richard Simmons
Utica: Bob Ross

Odd characters but we'll see laugh.gif Tina's the one who jumps out as being one who should be good at Snatch Game but we'll see! I think Rosé and Symone could be good as it's actually kind of interesting to do a historical figure like those but those could just as easily be a weird bomb type thing. Olivia actually sticks out here as a probable bottom 2 because I just don't see how Tabitha is gonna work for Snatch Game?!

By name the only ones I didn’t know were Tabitha Brown and Richard Simmons. Turns out I do know Tabitha she’s great on TikTok but I don’t think there’s a tonne there for a Snatch Game, she’s mainly just known for having a very calm soothing voice and chill videos

I'm a bit worried for Symone. I mean, obviously an amazing and inspiring person but how are you going to make her funny?

I had predicted Tina to win this in advance of the season, but not sure. Rose a bit on the nose but Ru likes historical figures.

From this list I would say Olivia and Utica in danger. Elliott will either be decent or a trainwreck.

Interested to see Gottmik, Tina, Denali and Rose's characters! I think all of those sound good and have enough to work with. Elliott I'm a bit meh about cause Crystal (UK1) didn't exactly do a great job and I can't see Elliott being any better. Just a character pandering to Ru's tastes. I reckon Kandy and Symone should do good as they're witty and can put themselves into their characters. Feeling like it could be a Utica and Olivia bottom two currently but hoping to proven wrong!

it's just too much...hopefully we get double sashay soon...I feel like everyone overstayed their welcome lol and my excitement about any of the queens has vanished!!!

And the fact that UK Season 2 is far superior isn't helping much lol.

I wasn't aware anyone else preferred UKS2 to S13! A hot new take I think, not seen it anywhere before ohmy.gif

Yeah I don't think having both running parallel is helping very much either.

Still hopefully Snatch Game will be good - certainly some interesting choices biggrin.gif

Not sure if this is sarcasm or not? Social media in particular has lots of people comparing UKS2 to S13 and saying how boring S13 is in comparison to UKS2. laugh.gif UKS2 is doing so well. cheer.gif

I'm not a big fan of the character choices for the snatch game. Utica is definitely going to bomb. laugh.gif I'm expecting Tina to do really well - perhaps her first win!

Seconding the preferring UK2 to US13 lol

I just feel the US13 girls haven't been very visible...? Apart from Rose and Denali on lives and Utica for being robbed, and Kandy going off on Twitter.

I'm finding it more boring everyone going on and on about how bad S13 is tbh, yeah it's not the best season but you'd think people are being forced at gunpoint to suffer through watching it laugh.gif And EVERYONE thinks it but you get the same few Twitter gays like "is it just me" no James hun you KNOW that it isn't shut up

i do think its a boring narrative of "which season is better?"

Its ironic that everyones complaints about S2 were how they wished the Queens were in it longer, S13 has done that and everyones moaning.

Tired of unknown social media personalities on the Snatch Game.

Jonathan Van Ness is just your regular gay dude who happens to be on the Queer Eye. I don't know how you'd make him funny.

Personally I think it's kind of natural to draw a comparison if you're watching two shows as to which you prefer, without it being necessarily a Drag Race thing.

Good point though re not being able to win laugh.gif

Oh definitely! I don't even think it's that bad; I'm actually enjoying season 13. And lbr most of the twitter gays saying season 13 is bad are watching it religiously every week and secretly living for the drama around it.

I think it should start picking up pace a bit this week with snatch game and a queen being eliminated (I hope lol).

They uploaded the first 5 mins or so of the episode:



That was an interesting mini-challenge. laugh.gif

Did Elliott even know the song? It seemed like his lipsynch was off...

The social media characters did nothing for me. I guess Utica's Bob Ross and Elliott's Rue deserved the bottom more though. Elliott and Utica were a mess.

Gottmik's Paris and Rosé's were obviously the best this week, but at the same time they really only got the voices right and then mostly let that do the work. Gottmik felt a bit lazy - I don't mind contestants going for "easy" choices, but it does feel like that's all the more reason to push it even more (see Chad Michaels doing Cher). In the grand scheme of things I don't think there was one that really placed up there for me.

(And can Ru start calling out Queens doing male drag again?)
