Posted May 23, 20205 yr RPDR SEASON 12 EPISODE 13: REUNION - ALONE TOGETHER Edited May 24, 20205 yr by J00psyMethyd
May 23, 20205 yr I thought it was a fun concept given the circumstances. A part of me is kind of disappointed that they didn't drag Sherry Pie to filth.
May 23, 20205 yr Brita kinda threw a little bit of shade when she read dahlia"how does it feel being a 13th placed queen in a season of 12 queens"
May 23, 20205 yr Loved the reunion! The reading challenge was so good, so many great reads. :lol: My favourite part was when Crystal's lighting went out and she lit her candle. :lol: The part with Jackie and her mother was so touching too. :snif: This is most probably my favourite reunion episode.
May 23, 20205 yr It was a nicely done episode Some good looks as well from Jackie, Jada, Aiden & Heidi Shocked Heidi is staying with her original name - feels a bit like the make under show that used to be on BBC3, where the people who have their excesses toned down just revert to the extremes months later!
May 23, 20205 yr I'm glad to see it this was a success and actually worked as a cute reunion. It's a bit difficult to recreate some of the more dramatic moments we've seen in previous seasons' reunited over what is essentially a Zoom call. However as a recap of the season it worked! I'm glad there was a more traditional reading challenge section - especially when the queens are already prepared and have watched back the season themselves makes for some better reads. Regarding the Sherry Pie situation, I think not recognising her at all was the best thing to do, it's a unanimous opinion that what she did was wrong and she should not have her career promote in light of the revelations. However it was a very good read from Brita to mention the elephant in the room (or the elephant missing from the room in this case...) indirectly and that was all the acknowledgement she was gonna get. I'm glad Brita and Aiden are back on good terms and I believe it when I hear Brita's explanation and apology for her behaviour on the season. Especially when backed up by queens like Jan and Jackie who are not going to take her side for the sake of it. In regards to Heidi's name, she's become so known as Heidi N Closet throughout the broadcast of the season that it would be silly to go back on that build in fame. If any of the other names properly stuck I think she might have, however in the days of social media and Twitter/Insta handles - you need to be easily accessible. Being just 'Heidi' wouldn't make business sense imo.
May 24, 20205 yr can we just appreciate how STUNNING and HILARIOUS Rock M was throughout the episode? I think she was the most memorable one. I'd be extremely surprised if she wasn't in one of the next couple AS seasons. Edited May 24, 20205 yr by CXNDÆRELLA-12
May 24, 20205 yr 5 lip syncs in the final though!! I get the 3 lip syncs when queens battle with each other + the final lip sync, but what about the 5th one?!
May 24, 20205 yr Author I couldn't believe Jackie referenced Rock's recent public nudity on the show itself :o
May 24, 20205 yr I couldn't believe Jackie referenced Rock's recent public nudity on the show itself :o I haven't seen it yet but I saw that somewhere and screamed :lol: On the Heidi name thing I never got why that was so bad, Heidi Nina Closet is a genius drag name!!
May 24, 20205 yr I couldn't believe Jackie referenced Rock's recent public nudity on the show itself :o This completely went over my head if that was mentioned :lol: I agree Pav - I think Rock is a great personality for the show and went out on a strong week way too early! If she edits her taste in a bit to what they like on RPDR then she could easily make a very good comeback!
May 24, 20205 yr I agree about Rock! I loved her one liners during the reunion. I think she stands a good chance at doing well in an All Stars series. Also was it just me or did Ru seem rather genuine and relaxed throughout? Usually I feel he puts up a bit of a front, but he seemed to be having a lot of fun. The moment when he shaded Jackie "I'm going to tell you something you've never heard... congratulations you're a winner." Then the look on Jackie's face :lol:
May 24, 20205 yr Author Rock was unfortunate but also a bit unpolished. Also trade of the season! She'll do well on All Stars. Tbh I could see most of this season on All Stars with the exception of maybe Dahlia and Brita - she may be a good queen, but I don't think she'd ever be good at Drag Race, it doesn't seem to fit her skillset, unless they opened with a presenting or interviewing challenge.
May 24, 20205 yr Yeah any of these queens bar Dahlia and maybe Brita could KILL an All Stars- including Nicky who lets be real, is the real fashion queen of the series and so much more likeable than G*gi
May 24, 20205 yr Rock was unfortunate but also a bit unpolished. Also trade of the season! are you trolling?
May 26, 20205 yr I think Rock is definitely up there for trade of the season! Definitely above the self appointed one! I agree her one liners were great, Nicky, Widow and Rock all stood out, even Aiden had one or two. It was a great watch.
