I kinda feel like my brackets has just made me yearn for a return to the norm. Just give me a standard season of All Stars at this point, I beg 😂

Honestly, me too, but then the only queens that will say yes are queens like Serena ChaCha and Naysha Lopez, or queens on their 7th attempt

I didn’t expect Joey to be top 2 here, what a fantastic result. That edging throughout the entire season has finally paid off, she deserved to win at least two challenges!!

What a meh season overall. I think a better solution would be to skip a year and wait until newer season queens mature, or invite a Canadian queen again, for example.

I would love it if they went back to the format of AS2/3/4 lip sync for the win and eliminate a bottom queen. Brought so much great drama and shock results!

I agree just a normal season is needed, probably a break too, but I unfortunately can’t see it, I think knowing they can just do a cute 5 episodes idk who would say yes to a full season now. I guess with a break as well it allows newer queens to come onto the main show and recent ones to have a break and be ready to come back.

Crystal winning was definitely the right outcome as she is incredible and didn’t put a foot wrong throughout, but Joey’s glow up is up there with the rest! She should be very proud and expect loads of bookings to come. Just relieved that Jasmine didn’t win, nobody or nothing could ever make me like her irritating one-trick-pony arse.

I’m checking out of All Stars tbh and going off what I’ve heard from next season I won’t be investing. It seems like there’s more focus on “good TV” rather than good drag which is soiled by the social game aspect rewarding mediocre queens rather than letting the drag do the talking. I’d rather it just be a winner and the bottom two lipsync for their life and have Ru decide like the regular seasons.

The brackets are really just “this will do :)” compared to the rest of the season, why is there fresh challenges like the rappin’ roast and the interview lipsync then for a semi final they’re just like “tell your younger self a story :)” like a glorified mini challenge 💀

I don’t want to say I feel bad for someone that just won 200k, but they really gave Crystal zero storyline for three episodes. She was just there, existing, looking sickening when they decided to give her some airtime, but that was it.

I can’t think of a more bizarre storyline for a winner, and the lack of stakes involved was baffling

This too! Wtaf was that storytime challenge, was it really worth axing snatch game for that?! I get that the last few haven’t matched the quality of how they used to be, but even a dogshit snatch game would have been more entertaining than that!

I mean with Jasmine, Dawn and Crystal on the cast probably not tbf but still 💀 I don’t see why they couldn’t do a Rusical though or even some kind of improv acting challenge.

It’s such a weird mix of feeling like they picked the winner and built the season around her winning but they also weren’t arsed? The brackets kind of feels like they just pick someone to crown who could have already had a crown (Ginger) or is a huge fan fave (Crystal) then build the season as a TV show around others.

And that’s not to say it even feels rigged for Crystal, she’s absolutely the right winner and nobody was really on her level of drag other than A’Keria who they always do dirty and Kennedy. Joey did have a massive glowup but there’s no way she deserved the win over Crystal. It’s just a really odd way to storyline and edit a season and it leaves a conclusion that isn’t at all satisfying. It’s one of those finales I’m just like oh cool that’s over lmfaooo

Seeing it do the rounds so my All Star winner ranking thus far:

01: Jinkx

02: Jimbo

03: Shea

04: Crystal

05: Angeria

06: Kylie

07: Trinity

08: Alaska

09: Ginger

10: Chad

11: Trixie

12: Monet

Crystal is up there as there’s so little fault but that top 3 is so hard to touch, especially Jinkx.

01 Alaska

02 Angeria

03 Jinkx

04 Jimbo

05 Crystal

06 Monet

07 Kylie

08 Shea

09 Trixie

10 Chad

11 Ginger

12 Trinity

Angeria I feel goes so underrated just because AS9 was shit and people thought Roxxxy should win. If any season had a couple crowning it should have been the kumbayah charity season lol

I love Trixie outside the show, she’d be higher, but she isn’t that good at Drag Race lol. Trinity does f*** all for me even if she deserved to win AS4 overall.
