I don't so much mind it being tactical (I say as I am still bitter over Naomi/Manila but whatever x), but I will probably be pretty annoyed if I lose a fave to some "UK sister" bullshit especially when the Ball is what I was expecting Pangina to do best in.
I think there's a difference for example between Naomi taking the chance to get Manila out, or when Mayhem/Alexis voted for Shea in episode 3 of AS5, and something like Rolaskatox continually saving Roxxxy in AS2. However I won't judge yet because we don't know track records, how that episode transpired, Baga could just have one bad week there and Pangina could have struggled a few times. But if it's say obvious Baga did the worst and had the worst track record, I'll be annoyed to lose Pangina just becasue Baga and Blu are friends. I think it's easy to say that when it's not your fave though so I'm gonna be biased if it happens to Pangina :lol:

It's Stan which I think is like as big as Netflix here, it does feel very budget though I agree, you can tell the set is small and the camera work whilst I feel it is trying to avoid highlighting it, makes you realise it more? :lol:
I expect we'll get used to and tune out of those things though. I liked it anyway but I feel like when we get more staple challenges like Snatch Game, it'll be more enjoyable.

Anyone seeing this Tamisha and Monet beef? :lol: Idk if it's just me but... Monet is fine? Like she has a review show and is... reviewing what Tamisha presented. It's hardly a Mik/Nina situation where hate is being incited. I mean you go on Drag Race you open yourself up to be critiqued, I don't like that Tamisha is basically now all "I've done drag longer than you I'm better and above your criticism", however it is insanely entertaining. Not her scheduling to read Monet on Tuesday lmfao

I enjoyed it too, a good bunch of queens. I'd easily have given Art the win, clearly the best over the two looks. Karen's were good but I think she was kind of like near the top for both whereas I'd say Art was my fave for both looks? Etcetera did great too imo but they seem to be giving her an invisible edit so hopefully we see a bit more of her.
The lipsync was FIRE?! I wasn't expecting that for some reason, maybe it's UK being full of often meh lipsyncs but they both brought it and that could have gone either way. Sad to lose Jojo first but Elektra I know has more to give. Coco's first look was so so bad I'd have maaaybe put her in the bottom over Jojo but then her second was good. It was hard bc like Art was the clear winner for me, Karen was a strong runner-up then I'd say Etcetera, then the rest kind of bunched together with Jojo, Elektra and Coco as the weakest with their looks so I can't disagree too much with how it went down.
I actually like Kita more than Anita so far which I didn't expect from House Of Drag - for context they're not only Elektra's bosses but they judged a New Zealand drag show called House Of Drag. Elektra competed in it and was the clear front runner, but she didn't win. She did win their celebrity impersonation challenge so she could be one to watch for Snatch Game.

All Stars 2
Note: I'm having bottom 2 throughout the season, I feel like they chopped and changed when they felt one of their faves might have been in danger (Alaska for Herstory)
EPISODE 1: All Star Talent Extravaganza
Top 2: Roxxxy, Tatianna Roxxxy wins
High - Alaska
Low - Adore
Bottom 2: Phi Phi, Coco Coco eliminated
EPISODE 2: Snatch Game
QUIT: Adore
Top 2: Alaska, Katya Alaska wins
High: Phi Phi
Low: Detox
Bottom 2: Tatianna, Roxxxy Tatianna eliminated
Sadly I can't have any other bottom 2 and there's no chance Alaska would eliminate Roxxxy, thank god for the return challenge x Tbh if they showed more of Ginger, she could be a high, so bizarre she was basically invisible in this edit.
EPISODE 3: Herstory Of The World
Top 2: Detox, Alyssa Alyssa wins
High: Roxxxy
Low: Katya
Bottom 2: Alaska, Ginger Ginger eliminated
I will defend the fact Alaska should have been in the bottom TO MY GRAVE, that padding and she clearly barely knew the words. I think Ginger's runway tips her bottom 2 over Katya, who was kinda set up to fail with a meh role but did the best she could.
EPISODE 4: Drag Movie Shequels
Top 2: Alaska, Phi Phi Phi Phi wins
High: Detox
Low: Katya I guess, but everyone bar the bottom 2 did well I feel
Bottom 2: Roxxxy, Alyssa Alyssa eliminated
I wanted Roxxxy gone here, but Phi Phi would send Alyssa home easy here. I think Phi Phi winning the lipsync isn't far out of the realms of possibility. Alyssa going also makes it easier to proceed with the comeback stand-up thing :lol:
EPISODE 5: Ruvenge Of The Queens
Top 2: Detox, Alaska (Tatianna, Alyssa) double win
Bottom 2: Roxxxy, Phi Phi Roxxxy eliminated
Roxxxy going here with a slightly better track record I think is good for her, in this fantasy Tati and Alyssa were fair and went for the queen who'd been bottom already, 3 times at this point.
EPISODE 6: Drag Fish Tank
Top 2: Katya, Alaska Katya wins
Bottom 2: Phi Phi, Alyssa Phi Phi eliminated
Tati ROBBED, I've put Phi Phi bottom her and she goes as both have a lipsync win and I think Katya would be fair and touch on how Alyssa was already arguably unfairly eliminated. Also Katya won that lipsync fight me
EPISODE 7: A Family That Drags Together
Top 2: Katya, Detox Detox wins
Bottom 2: Alyssa, Alaska Alyssa eliminated
I know Tati bombed the makeover in S2, let's pretend she had a glow-up as I want her in the final. Alaska would keep her meltdown from this season as well, I've heard that that's why she won, at that point she hadn't shown any humanity so she wasn't seen by the producers as a winner.
EPISODE 8: Finale
Alaska (4 wins, 2 bottoms)
Detox (3 wins, no bottoms)
Katya (3 wins, no bottoms)
Tatianna (2 wins, 1 bottom)
I'd love to crown Katya, but I think for what was presented through the season, it would be Alaska still, just with two bad weeks, honestly if I gave to the crown to someone different, it would actually be Detox. Such a strong cast!

you can't just eliminate asia like that i'm sorry!!
Gagatondra x
I think there was kinda bias there, had it been Cracker or Monet who I really liked that season and that actually happened I'd be fuming, sometimes I judge fairly in these but other times I'm like hey whatever let's throw a gag in :lol:

So a majority of tea has been debunked or at least called into question, the consensus was that Kita went first but it was actually Jojo!
Basically there are two people in the entire t checker who could be right and said Jojo was eliminated first:
Either -
10th Jojo
(Art, but comes back)
9th Coco
8th Kita
7th Elektra
6th Etcetera
5th Maxi
4th Anita (:cry:)
Top 3: Art, Karen, Scarlet
OR
Top 4 of Anita, Art, Etc and Scarlet, the top 4 is the finale. This person also said Jojo and Coco go episodes 1 and 3, and Art is brought back simply because she "left too soon" rather than as part of a challenge (lowkey seems kinda rigga morris to me but I love Art so not mad), also Snatch Game is supposed to be actually good. I was a bit doubtful of the Snatch Game being bad and Art going because if it was really bad and they wanted to protect Art, they'd be spoilt for choice for a bottom 2!
Anita just missing the final is not the one so I hope it's the latter, Scarlet there either way is rather annoying.

SEASON 10
EPISODE 1: Drag On A Dime
WIN - Monique
High - Mayhem, Cracker, Yuhua
Low - Dusty
Bottom 2: Kalorie, Vanjie Vanjie eliminated
Monique not even being top for this is WILD, otherwise agreed with the tops and bottoms, Blair gone from the tops to make way for Monique's win. Vanjie lost that lipsync and I think it wasn't her time, she was better off coming back for S11 than lasting a bit longer here to me.
EPISODE 2: PharmaRusical
WIN - Vixen
High - her team
Low - Aquaria
Bottom 2: Kalorie, Eureka Kalorie eliminated
Haven't changed much here, but I think Aquaria should have been low.
EPISODE 3: Tap That App
WIN - Asia
High - Eureka, Blair
Low - Kameron
Bottom 2: Yuhua, Mayhem Yuhua eliminated
This was actually totally right imo.
Episode 4: The Last Ball On Earth
WIN - Aquaria
High - Eureka, Kameron
Low - Asia
Bottom 2: Monet, Dusty Dusty eliminated
Eureka easily was top over Cracker, the rest I agree with, Mayhem could have been high over Cracker as well.
EPISODE 5: Bossy Rossy
WIN - Eureka
High - Monique, Cracker
Low - Mayhem
Bottom 2: Vixen, Monet Double shantay
I don't think Mayhem was bad enough to be bottom, I'd have put Vixen/Monet and a lipsync with those two would have to be a double shantay right? I know people think Cracker could have won, but I just think for being a challenge about ridiculous OTT American chat shows, Eureka nailed that vibe.
EPISODE 6: DragCon Panel
WIN - Eureka
High - Mayhem, Kameron
Low - Cracker
Bottom 2: Blair, Vixen Blair eliminated
Mayhem could have been great here, but I'm still giving Eureka the win, pretending Mayhem was in their team I guess. Bottom 2 the same, same outcome.
EPISODE 7: Snatch Game
WIN - Aquaria
High - Eureka, Monet
Low - Monique
Bottom 2: Asia, Vixen Asia eliminated
Asia should have been bottom 2 for sure, Monique at least got a joke in and tried. Asia and Vixen could have been really stupid and hilarious with this weird dynamic they made for Bey and Ivy but instead Vixen acted a brat and Asia was just Beyonce randomly being mean and angry? :lol: Honestly with this song... I think Asia would lose?! Gagatondra x
EPISODE 8: Cher Rusical
WIN - Cracker
High - Monet, Monique
Low - Mayhem
Bottom 2: Vixen, Aquaria Vixen eliminated
After FOUR lipsyncs in a row, Aquaria finally vanquishes Vixen. Cracker is my winner here, Kameron I didn't even put top as for my tastes it was good but kinda boring/expected/safe whereas I think Cracker injected the comedy more. Monet killed it too and I'm putting Monique top as she'd have killed it too, but that may be a bit of bias for one of my faves. Idk about Mayhem so she takes Aquaria's low.
EPISODE 9: Breastworld
WIN - Monet
High - Aquaria, Monique
Low - Eureka
Bottom 2: Mayhem, Kameron Mayhem eliminated
Don't think I could take Mayhem much further :lol: Monet I feel could have won this, Asia winning was a bit odd but then it wasn't a great acting challenge at all.
EPISODE 10: Social Media Kings Into Queens
WIN - Cracker
High - Eureka
Low - Aquaria, Kameron (both did bad tbh)
Bottom 2: Monique, Monet Monique eliminated
This wouldn't be Monique's bag, so I've had her eliminated here, Cracker and Eureka still top.
EPISODE 11: Evil Twins
WIN - Aquaria
High - Eureka
Low - Cracker
Bottom 2: Kameron, Monet Kameron eliminated
I just think Kameron is a boring finalist, feasibly Monet could have pulled off a lipsync win here I feel. Maybe pulling some bullshit to save Cracker but I haaaaaaated this challenge anyway.
Final:
Aquaria (3 wins, 1 bottom)
Cracker (2 wins, no bottoms)
Eureka (2 wins, 1 bottom)
Monet (1 win, 4 bottoms)
Aquaria still wins, Monet could be trouble in a lipsync for the crown but with that many bottom placements it would never be allowed to happen!

Back to normal seasons now with arguably one of the weakest seasons,
SEASON 11
EPISODE 1: Whatcha Unpackin'
WIN - Brooke
High - Vanjie, A'Keria
Low - Nina, Mercedes
Bottom 2: S*ju, Kahanna S*ju eliminated
Haven't changed much here but I begrudge giving Plastique high for the same silhouette she came in with just with some roses stuck on for Sasha.
EPISODE 2: Good God Girl, Get Out
WIN - Yvie, Scarlet
High - Plastique, Shuga
Low - Brooke
Bottom 2: Merecedes, Kahanna
Haven't changed this at all, this double win just feels right.
EPISODE 3: Diva Worship
WIN - Nina
High - Vanjie, Ariel
Low - Scarlet
Bottom 2: Ra'Jah, Honey Honey eliminated
That whole team bottom lipsync was a mess, I'd just have a normal tops and bottoms situation, and I think I'd single Vanjie and Ariel from the Britney team. Ra'Jah and Honey I feel were the worst from their team and Honey would still go in this situation.
EPISODE 4: Trump The Rusical
WIN - Yvie
High - Brooke, Nina (possibly also Shuga if not for her runway)
Low - Ra'Jah
Bottom 2: Vanjie, Mercedes Mercedes eliminated
This is where the riggory creeps in, idk if it's just my distaste for Silky but like... she had one of those set up to win characters and still the performances just felt like textbook safe! Passable, certainly good, but in no way better than Yvie, Brooke or Nina, and even a couple of others imo. Vanjie should have been bottom here I feel just about, but Mercedes would still go for sure. Yvie so should have won this.
EPISODE 5: Monster Ball
WIN - Scarlet
High - Ra'Jah, Brooke
Low - Ariel
Bottom 2: Silky, Shuga Silky eliminated
I'm cutting Silky early, a horrible presence on the season who did awfully in this ball and to be honest, given her lipsync later in the season, I don't think it's not out of the question Shuga would win here. I think Scarlet and Ra'Jah were paid dust here, Brooke I think would just edge Yvie to high eve though Yvie's trick or treat look was probs my fave of them all.
EPISODE 6: Draglympics
WIN - A'Keria
High - her team
Low - Nina
Bottom 2: Scarlet, Ra'Jah Ra'Jah eliminated
TO THIS DAY I maintain that Scarlet won that lipsync.
EPISODE 7: From Farm To Runway
WIN - Yvie
High - Brooke, Plastique
Low - Vanjie
Bottom 2: A'Keria, Ariel Ariel eliminated
I don't think Ariel would shine here, won't take her any further. Plastique should not have won this, otherwise it was about right, I've put Vanjie low over Nina seeing as although it wasn't exactly stunning, she did at least try and make an outfit, Vanjie just kind of threw fabric on her body even if it did look ok.
EPISODE 8: Snatch Game
WIN - Shuga
High - Nina, Scarlet
Low - Vanjie
Bottom 2: Yvie, Brooke double shantay
Can't argue with the bottoms, two of the worst of all time. Vanjie wasn't great but at least in basically being herself, she wasn't AS much of a bomb as the bottoms. Of course this iconic lipsync is a double shantay still, Shuga is where I'd go for the win, super underrated. I feel like had they edited it so we saw more, that could have easily been a win. Scarlet was meant to do Lana Del Rey which could go either way but there was hardly much competition. Even if Silky was here, I'd not give her the win for basically playing herself soz x
EPISODE 9: LADP
WIN - A'keria
High - Brooke, Nina
Low - Shuga
Bottom 2: Vanjie, Plastique Plastique eliminated
Same outcome here, with Silky gone I've put Nina in her place, A'keria definitely won this.
EPISODE 10: Dragracadabra
WIN - Nina
High - Shuga
Low - Scarlet
Bottom 2: Yvie, Vanjie Vanjie eliminated
Shuga being eliminated for this was some bullshit! Vanjie should have gone here tbh, throwing Yvie in the bottom too but it could have been Scarlet or her honestly.
EPISODE 11: Makeover
WIN - Brooke
High - Scarlet, A'Keria
Low - Yvie
Bottom 2: Nina, Shuga Shuga eliminated
(Vanjie should have won the real makeover js x)
I mean this is just a shot in the dark as obv it would be totally different with others in the eliminated spots as I still have Shuga and Scarlet here. I can't see Shuga doing well in a makeover, so she's taking Silky's spot. Let's pretend they had a campy lipsync song both would have done well in instead of that No Scrubs waste.
EPISODE 12: Queens Everywhere
WIN - Yvie
High - Nina
Bottom 2: A'keria, Brooke A'keria eliminated
I'm doing this as if it was a competitive episode, Yvie MURDERED it. Nina I think could deliver a campy verse, it was close for the others but I think A'keria was so forgettable Scarlet could easily do better I'd have thought.
Top 4:
Brooke (2 wins, 2 bottoms)
Nina (2 wins, 1 bottom)
Scarlet (2 wins, 1 bottom)
Yvie (4 wins, 2 bottoms)
Yvie would still win here in a lipsync for the crown or otherwise, just wit a better track record.

I think she's one of those queens who is a name outside of the show but just doesn't translate well to the show and its confines of what you have to be good at, for some reason on both runs she just rarely hit it, it would have been nice for her to get a win this season but as I said I lowkey wanted to keep Derrick just for the drama, I find Mayhem kinda boring as a character tbh even when she is good on the show oops. I've tried to be fair here with judging (probably with some bias sill lol) so saved her over Derrick but I'd have appreciated the Derrick drama more than Mayhem's contribution to an awful challenge where I decided to give her the win. Given how the India/Alexis saga was about the only interesting thing that happened in all of AS5, a bit more drama wouldn't have gone amiss.
Having said that, eliminating India in ep 3 also gets rid of that saga so I have ruined AS5 even further here :lol:
-
Hmm yeah true, I'm somewhat torn as I don't want lipsyncs to overtake and have loads of them in episodes, espeically when so often they are lacklustre and it puts too much pressure and focus on one skill.
Perhaps for the double win/more recognition thing, you could have Ru's winner and maybe either the panel or the queens decide their winner and it *could* be the same but also could be someone else and you get a double win. Tbh the queens deciding almost sounds like a half arsed All Stars twist that goes horribly wrong though :lol:
