I know it's been done before but I really don't like when the runways are like 2 second flashes, you can barely see who's on the runway and they're gone!

That said, I don't know what they could have cut because every part of the episode was so important. This show has too much content for a 40 minute slot, it should be a 2 hour block like Celebrity Apprentice.

 

I have a friend that is like Eureka and they are amazing at first. They're so funny and witty and sharp.. then it starts to wear and they don't know when to switch it off.

And their feelings get hurt when they hurt other peoples feelings by saying something out of order?! I'm going off her for that reason. There's a time and place.

 

Charlie wasn't just thrown she was SLUNG under the bus, this was totally not her time to go. Peppermint tripped over herself constantly, she was co-anchor and did not end the segment and her runway was trash.

The whole thing with asking Naya a question was taken out of context. Naya didn't let her finish.. Why would we wanna know about her blagging her way into a job at Abercrombie, the biter was if she did it for Glee!

 

I like Peppermint but she should have been in the bottom over both Charlie and Trinity. I feel like there are so many MOR queens that are gliding by (Cynthia especially) and Trinity (who won last week) got a hard time.

It should have been a Peppermint/Charlie bottom two, but the ene result will have still been the same. I'm annoyed that Charlie was in the bottom but if THAT is how she lipsyncs for her life maybe it's for the best she's gone early on and save the spot for queens who will fight to be there.

It was just so sad to watch, but I know she was going to be gone early when she was just getting absolutely nothing from the judges any week. Should have been safe rather than bottom three in week 2, and top 3 rather than just safe last week

 

Absolutely gagging at her runway looks (she looked f***ing gorgeous last night) and the judges seemed to be like "meh".

 

Blatantly brought onto the show purely to be a filler queen for a few episodes, when it shouldn't have been the case.

Too heartbroken to go watch this episode after reading this :snif: my person winner GONE

THIS was the episode I've been waiting for, I feel like it properly hit its stride this week and will hopefully now continue to be a killer series. Shea really shined for me and while there's still something that's stopping me getting totally on board with Trinity (I still think it's just her frozen face and mug which I don't particularly like), I'm definitely growing to become totally on board with her. I agree with the "jack of all trades" comment someone made and THAT f***ING LIP SYNC. She absolutely turned it, Y E S.

 

As for Charlie, she did deserve to go last night, sadly. I know there's a lovable warmth to Charlie and she was definitely in my top half, but she's seemed a little cold and mechanical in every challenge and every Untucked, she never really seemed comfortable and her exit on Untucked kinda explained that, she's just not a competitive person and I think the environment was wrong for her.

 

I really feel like this week was a big turning point for Aja aswell, I'm not convinced she has a lot left in her but especially in Untucked, I really feel like this show has been taught her a lot and she's learning to mature, love herself and grow from what people are telling her. She looked fantastic this week, definitely the best she's looked yet.

 

My ranking now:

 

01 (01) Nina Bonina Brown

02 (02) Shea Coulee

03 (09) Trinity Taylor

04 (04) Valentina

05 (03) Farrah Moan

06 (11) Aja

07 (06) Peppermint

08 (08) Sasha Velour

09 (07) Eureka O'Hara

10 (12) Cynthia Lee Fontaine

11 (10) Alexis Michelle

 

I do really like Sasha and the win was deserved, but I want to stan for her more than I do. She doesn't really give me enough even though she's likeable.

It almost feels like the runway barely mattered this week, given they glossed over it in the episode and I think that while Charlie did fluff the challenge, the runway should've made up for it, whereas Peppermint was weak on the challenge and runway so I think she definitely should have been bottom 2. But while I get the cracked ribs thing, of course, if Charlie wasn't going to lipsync at any point then yeah she should have gone now. A lipsync is supposed to be a firey fight and a reason to stay, look at Trinity who could've easily gone home after a weak week but she killed the lipsync and is becoming a fave for a lot of people (myself included, because that was f***ing fab). I think Charlie was happy with where she was in drag, she didn't always give that oomph in challenges when it was something she was perhaps less comfortable with, but either way it must have been so frustrating for her to be paid basically dust when she was clearly in the top few of every runway.

 

I agree though all in all this episode was the best so far, it was the perfect challenge although apart from Nina and Eureka Not On Today were a total mess :lol: But it had a good balance of the strong team and a bit of a hot mess, flecks of drama and some great performances. It could do with being a bit longer but I think this was easily the best use of limited time so far.

I've been on a few dates with a designer who works on dresses for Drag Race queens and he is making a dress for one of the finalists. Caved and asked him the elimination order :cry: why did I ruin it for myself.

I usually do this as well, but I've been bery good this season, and I am enjoying not knowing it seems very open to me.

Oh my god. I was SLAIN by Nina this week. That look was incredible. I love her so much. She's underrated as hell.

 

What a fantastic episode. Feeling sorry for Charlie but it was expected as soon as i had my boydriend spoil the conditions of that lipsync for me without saying who is in the bottom.

Edited April 16, 20178 yr by DiamondHeart

My ranking at the moment, Given what we've seen at present I'm hoping for a Shea/Trinity/Valentina top 3'as they seem to he consistent across the board. Nina's neurosis may come back to haunt her, I am rooting for Aja to step her 🐱 up, Alexis/Peppermint/Farrah are likeable but need to win or they'll be going home quite shortly. Sasha's just not going to be my aesthetic and I think she takes herself a bit too seriously, but she seems nice enough as a person. Eureka's wigs and need for attention are getting on my tits and Cucu's charm is going down the toilet.

I can't work out why Sasha irritates me so much? I think maybe I find her too serious, too modest and too overly aware of how she wants to come across. Is anyone else getting that?

i am too - she's like max where her main sell is her fashions / the RESULT of her work, but she's not a lot of fun to watch to GET to that result. She is a solid queen and she seems nice enough and pleasant enough but when you get MASSIVE personalities who are great to watch it doesn't becoming refreshing, it becomes boring

WHY DID I NOT SEE THAT COMING !!! Just as I grow to like Eureka :( But I did understand.

 

Farrah was so lucky this time :lol: That was SUCH a fun challenge, easily my favourite so far. The song was hilarious and there were a lot of fab performances from the girls. Alexis definitely totally stole the show as Kris but as soon as she came out on the runway wearing THAT I knew the win had slipped from her fingers. Shea slayed too, overall definitely the right winner.

 

I am so tired of Nina's drama though, I get the overthinking and paranoia thing but it's boring to see every week, and this week she came across as bratty and sulky rather than struggling or upset or paranoid. How many times is she gonna lift just out of the bottom 2 with a good runway? :lol:

I don't even think Nina's runways are all that. Last week with the face paint, it looked like she'd had it done at a kids birthday party. It was all slipping down her face and her breast plate always shows the edges.. I don't see it with her?

And in the challenge, she was a nightmare. I'm so glad Todrick called her out. She was so dismissive and unwilling to work because she didn't get the part she wanted. Tough shit! Shea slayed the role, happy she won!

 

I really thought Cynthia was a goner this week. What Alexis was thinking making her Kim I do not know.. Meghan's impression was hilarious!

She did it again in the lip sync.. took her clothes off and mimed badly. She's just not improved since her last shot.. she's had her time now.

 

Also.. Eureka! :o I genuinely thought Ru was going to say she was faking her injured knee and she was getting thrown off the show! :lol:

But tbh.. there's no way they could have a queen on crutches every week. She needed time to heal, it was the right choice.

Edited April 22, 20178 yr by Kye

Cannot believe Alexis Michelle having a go at all of the girls for her shitty look in Untucked. As if it is there responsibility to sort your questionable taste levels, bye.

 

Also wish Ru had made history and made it a triple elimination. Horrible lip sync from the two weakest drag queens left.

 

Rate after Episode 5:

 

1. Valentina

2. Shea Coulee

3. Trinity Taylor

4. Nina Bo'Nina Brown

5. Peppermint

6. Sasha Valour

7. Aja

8. Alexis Michelle

9. Cynthia Lee Fontaine

10. Farrah Moan

 

The top 3 are away ahead of the back. 4-6 I enjoy but they all need to step their game up. The bottom 4 need to be gone ASAP, next 4 eliminations please.

Also, I'm dying at them redoing the

Madonna

runway next week after last time :lol:

 

 

 

omg the eureka elimination was camp reality TV at its finest!!!! that lipsync was horrible tho - is cynthia ever going to know the words to any lipsync she ever has to do?!

Aww Miss Eureka, consistently been one of my favourites and glad to see her getting a really favourable edit in this episode, the laughing and joking with Todrick really got me, she looked so happy. I am so sad we are losing her but you can't really do all the things a Drag Queen should on crutches. Plus, this way we will potentially get more episodes out of her overall. Her video on the Logo website about the exit is the sweetest too. Yas queen!

 

Miss Cynthia.. I absolutely live for her as boy and in natural drag setting like when Ru asked if her selfie would feature her cucu, and taking the mick out of Aja. But not knowing the words to TWO lipsyncs in ONE episode is inexcusable. She was so so lucky to make it through.

 

Actually so was Farrah. I have come to realise that lovely as she is, she offers next to nothing. The least of anyone. I loved her absolutely sobbing as Eureka left but you can't win DR by being a lovely human.

 

I thought this was a great episode, and if Cynthia had known the words than the musical would have rewatch value. Weird as she was on point with her steps. So weird that we got a full runway, some workroom apologies/chats, a mini challenge and the episode didn't feel rushed! Best one yet.

 

Overall:

01 (01) Shea - Absolutely cemented this this week, I finally have a clear frontrunner, especially with Eureka gone. Killed it in both parts.

(Eureka :()

02 (03) Valentina - Even when she doesn't have an episode full of moments, she still manages to shine.

03 (06) Peppermint - I've realised she is one of the best talking heads, love the faces she pulls. Great Britney, just no more pink skirts!

04 (04) Trinity - Didn't love much from her this week, middle of the pack. Inconsistent but can be great.

05 (05) Nina - Would be in the top three but for her attitude, so offputting. She is only harming herself, there were 11 people in the room, you had no divine right to be Blac Chyna and then certainly no place to be rude to a choreographer/judge because you were in a mood. Liked her runway look though.

06 (07) Cynthia - Still a soft spot for Cucu even though she disappointed me. Her Kim still made me LOL at points and I liked her runway.

07 (10) Alexis - PROPS for that Kris Jenner, was absolutely superb, even in moments she wasn't front and centre. The Untucked rant wasn't cute, and a big NO to her telling Farrah she couldn't go practice, but she climbs on merit.

08 (08) Sasha - Her Lindsay was at times funny, but her chat in Untucked about she should be registering higher, bitch you won last week! She just doesn't really connect with me.

09 (11) Aja - To be fair, she grew on me massively this week. Not even sure why, but I'm glad as I now like all the queens.

10 (09) Farrah - I've just had to realise she has nothing but a pleasant look to offer.

 

I like that beyond Shea, who knows who will make the finale!
