fuck eureka, she's horrible. i so hate that they tried to make her a sympathetic character.

At first I thought that Alexis was calling the girls together so she could get a chance to finish telling her Studio 54 story, and it was hilarious.

Okay caught up on everything (was on vacation last week) and uh...huh.

wow Alexis was extremely appalling in "Untucked"
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 27 April 2017 14:11 (seven years ago) link
Was she ever!
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:13 (seven years ago) link
Also Untucked did the thing where they tell you WHY there's a big emotional moment after it happened in the main program. Which can be a little frustrating.

OH MY GOD THAT LIP SYNC WAS I C O N I C
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 29 April 2017 17:30 (seven years ago) link
i am fucking REELING, that is like instant top 5 of all time
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 29 April 2017 17:31 (seven years ago) link
and it felt so completely effortless, like she wasn't even trying, she was just on a completely different plane
also thank fucking god Cynthia is gone ugh
Yeah that was an amazing end to a pretty great episode (I thought). And talk about Cynthia being utterly exposed. (Not as much as Valentina, though -- seriously, safe only?)
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 29 April 2017 17:40 (seven years ago) link
omg Peppermint crushed that lipsync from the first beat. haven't seen one that lively in a while. dita ritz-level enthusiasm & commitment, A+++++
i wanted more older madonna looks but the runway was p cool. loved valentina's look, and sasha
alexis & sasha were great in snatch game, nina's jasmine was great... but there were a helluva lot of flatliners :/ aja's alyssa was like ugh why. and her runway look was so cheap & basic, she's lucky she wasn't in the bottom
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 29 April 2017 19:21 (seven years ago) link
Not feeling the amazement in that LSFYL. All of the top 5 lip syncs ever, tho, involve Alyssa Edwards imo
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Saturday, 29 April 2017 19:21 (seven years ago) link
And, yes, the Dida Ritz one
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Saturday, 29 April 2017 19:22 (seven years ago) link
all the best lipsyncs have been in the earlier seasons.. the reason Peppermint's is getting a reaction is because she came with the *expected* energy level that we want but havent seen in fuckin forever. she did it for her life, she was hungry.
the norm has become walking around & pointing, that's why this stood out
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 29 April 2017 19:38 (seven years ago) link
omg untucked - shea dropping knowledge on trinity about edges was v funny, "i'll mail you my baby hairs for your birthday" lol

Yeah the Untucked is so great, just now finishing it up.

Hahah yeah, we did that the other night too. Cannot wait to see what she says this time around.

i was bummed that there were STILL duplicates. i bet she will be pissed

Best episode this season, I ended up liking everybody. I think everyone has started to relax in front of the cameras and aren't so stiffly affected. Except Alexis, she's always theatrically on.
Loved Trinity for being able to read and able to take beyond read. Valentina for that runway, and for turning in a competent Snatch. Shea for the realest talk to Nina. Nina for finally turning her head around!
And loved loved loved Sasha. I'm convinced there's a way that Judith Butler could've worked, but even mentioning her is A++++ in my book. Also, her Dietrich was my favorite of the Snatches. I'm so glad the show is featuring her more now.
Peppermint's lip sync is now my favorite ever. The musicality was so in the moment and perfect.
Cynthia needed to go, but she seems like such a great person. Such a nurturer!
― Bashir-Worf Hypothesis (Leee), Sunday, 30 April 2017 18:14 (seven years ago) link
Yeah I loved the fact we not only got a Judith Butler mention but an imitation. I need to share that moment with some friends.
― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 30 April 2017 18:42 (seven years ago) link
i think this season might be the closest we've ever gotten to RuPaul's Best Friend Race?
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 30 April 2017 18:52 (seven years ago) link
Absolutely. There is zero drama here. Not a terrible thing, but I could use a beef right about now
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Sunday, 30 April 2017 18:56 (seven years ago) link
And then next week is all blood or something.
So containing some speculation: we've winnowed out some chaff. Who is your top three at this point?
― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:10 (seven years ago) link
I think the top 3 are gonna be Sasha, Shea, and maybe Alexis. I think ppl will go home in this order:
FarrahAjaPeppermintNinaTrinityValentinaAlexisSashaShea
I do hope I'm wrong (I'd like to see Valentina, Trinity, and Alexis go home earlier and Peppermint and Nina stick around for a while) but that's my gut.
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:27 (seven years ago) link
Valentina is so inexplicably overrated. They tell queen after queen after queen to stop relying on that bodyodyody and yet
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:28 (seven years ago) link
valentinanina / sashashea
― clouds, Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:30 (seven years ago) link
i'm surprised you hate valentina tbh, she's obviously done her homework w/ runways looks and has an encyclopedic knowledge of fashion houses, plus she's hilarious and witty and cute as fuck. i think she'll go far after the show if she isn't at least top 3.
― clouds, Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:35 (seven years ago) link
i don't hate her, i think she's pretty great, i just think she's a weird robot and that there are like 4 or 5 better queens than her! I do enjoy the glimpses of the Real Her that we've gotten over the past few episodes. Also the fact that I find her overpraised makes me a little resentful. But I don't hate her.
I want Nina to be in the top 3 but I think she's going to sabotage herself :(
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 30 April 2017 20:43 (seven years ago) link
my 3sashavalentinanina
realistically though I think Trinity & Alexis both want it bad, and they are pushing themselves competitively each week enough that either of them could easily eclipse a favorite queen and make top 3. the other queens need to be careful & not get complacent bc both these bitches are hungry af. they are both talented AND studiously working to improve & both have humor & acting talents & a generally impressive well of skills to draw from
they're not my faves but they are circling like sharks & i kinda respect that
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:01 (seven years ago) link
you think valentina and nina will outlast shea???
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:05 (seven years ago) link
i put alexis (this is the most basic pageant drag name right?) in a group with shannel and roxxy andrews of potato-y looking queens who are pretty much consistently mediocre and annoying as hell but somehow stick around waaaay after they should
― clouds, Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:08 (seven years ago) link
my top 3 is just queens i love and want to win, but realistically shea is def top 3 material, she's really good & came to play
being super nitpicky here but i don't like shea's makeup, she puts way too much white on the inner corners of her eyes & it always looks a little unfinished. except for her madonna & naomi looks this week her wigs havd beem kinda shitty quality
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:16 (seven years ago) link
shea and trixie are pals and both got their start in chicago so it makes sense for shea to borrow ideas from her
― clouds, Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:23 (seven years ago) link
omg this is 100%.
My top 3:SashaValentina (suck it haters)Shade Kool-Aid
More likely top 3:AlexisTrinityShea
― Bashir-Worf Hypothesis (Leee), Sunday, 30 April 2017 21:35 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, Farrah and Aja are the next two to go for sure. Beyond that, I could see them going in any order. No one is the runaway winner yet for me, but it's looking pretty evenly matched beyond that. Top 3 usually covers as many bases as possible, so the smart prediction would be:
SheaValentinaSasha
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Sunday, 30 April 2017 22:14 (seven years ago) link
I'm happy Peppermint gave everyone life; maybe it's the routine against the song selection that left me out of the loop.
Honestly I think I like Aja better *out* of drag. And I have no idea how Farrah has made it this far
― Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 30 April 2017 22:48 (seven years ago) link
Had Eureka's knee held up, I'm absolutely convinced Farrah/Cynthia would've been a double elimination.
― insidious assymetrical weapons (Eric H.), Sunday, 30 April 2017 23:08 (seven years ago) link
