Understand that we state this merely as an observation and not a complaint, but the penultimate RPDR season episode is always a little dull to us.   Drag Race is extremely upfront about how artificial it is – like a drag itself in a lot of ways. So at this stage in the game,...

It’s funny. We didn’t realize until last night that somehow we got it in our heads that no one from this group could be eliminated. Believe us, there’s at least one person in this foursome we would love to see get eliminated, but somehow we just assumed that Ru would allow...

It just occurred to us that we really haven’t addressed something of grand importance in the world of RPDR and it’s time we did so.   White Pit Crew should never have shaved. And his tats are kind of goofy-looking. Black Pit Crew looks perfect, as always.   Storm. His...

We suppose the opening minutes provided a clue as to how this episode was going to go.   We didn’t love the sharing circle idea, just because it’s one of those goofy challenges that doesn’t really have anything to do with drag, as far as we can tell.   Oh, sure;...

Despite a first ten minutes comprising the following: We were a little bored with the episode. No complaints about that first ten minutes, though. Except for maybe finding Andrew Christian a little precious, but that’s just us.   Big. Black.   Barbie. Brava.   Maybe this...

Mamas! Mascara tracks! This one had it all, darlings. Granted, we almost never believe the queens on this show when they put on a teary scene, but we suppose we’ll have to let our hearts soften a little and pretend to take the tears at face value. And a Happy St. Patricks Day to you...

We’re running late, so let’s get to it, bitches.   We think all reality competitions could be improved by the occasional use of night vision goggles.   We also think it’s so brilliant to make the queens put on their makeup in the dark that we’re a bit...

We’re not gonna lie, kittens. After writing as many words as we have on the topic, it gets pretty tough trying to come up with any thoughts on the latest reality competition; especially when it’s the wrapup of fairly lackluster season that nonetheless ended well. Not that we...

Of COURSE we didn’t forget, darlings! Think of it as our little pre-Thanksgiving gift to you. Complete with meat. Good GOD, those ladies look ROUGH. This was cute enough, we suppose. We find ourselves missing the occasional photo shoot. These challenges are designed to put the queens in...

HERE! HERE’S YOUR DAMN RECAP, WHINERS! What we mean by that is, sorry we’re a day late, darlings. Is it us, or is the Pit Crew criminally under-used this season? Here endeth the complaint portion of this recap. Because this was the first top-to-bottom enjoyable episode of the...

In the past, if we didn’t have a Drag Race recap up by 12 noon the following day, our inbox and twitter would be full of kittens demanding to know when we were going to get if done already. This season? Nary a peep, even if we don’t get it up until late in the afternoon. What does...

  Bless. Doing a drag version of The Newlywed Game? Brilliant.   Having everyone perform it out of drag? Missed opportunity. But Miss Ru loves her some ’70s game show realness, so this was mostly fun.   This was … kinda not.   WELL into this segment – and...

Kittens, we were traveling and doing real-world stuff for a couple of days, so can you forgive us for being late on this recap? Can you, darlings? Really? Because some of y’all were quite annoyed with us for not paying Ru’s Girls the respect that they’re entitled to; the...

Oh shit, you guys. Logo revealed the breathlessly-awaited lineup for Rupaul’s Drag Race All-Stars, starting in October, and … well, just see for yourselves.     Latrice Royal, Pandora Boxx, and Jujubee ALL AT THE SAME TIME? WHO THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO ROOT FOR? Who...

What a sad, silly way to end a decent season of the show.   Don’t get us wrong; we like the idea of LOGO putting on a staged dragstravaganza, but we’d rather see them attempt it as a variety show or series of specials rather than as a hastily put-together afterthought for a...

Ugh. Y’know, we were fully prepared to start this recap off with the word “Ugh,” and then follow it with another 700 words on how disgusted we are by the win, but instead we’re ughing over something completely different. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves....

We’re going to do things a little differently this time and run parallel commentaries both on the show generally and on the challenges in this episode specifically. Let’s see if we can pull it off and all come together at the end.   Well. It’s always fun until someone...

Hit it, girls! We kinda felt like the criticisms leveled at them were a bit on the arbitrary side. No, they didn’t literally look like sisters, but Phi Phi was the only queen who managed that. What Jesse Tyler Ferguson said about them looking like friends in a Tyler Perry movie was...

We stand with our more glamorous sisters during their Norma Rae moment: Damn straight skippy, queens. Ew. Ew. We just can’t with this one. We figured it wouldn’t be Willam but we shouldn’t have been surprised it was Kenya. Michelle Visage has always had an inexplicable...

  We’re a couple of white boys, so it’s not for us to say whether the “The Help” joke was offensively racist. Our problem with it is that it just wasn’t funny. Drag is almost always politically incorrect in one form or another, so a talented queen...

A drunken platform shoe decorating contest! Oh, why can’t there by gay summer camps with activities like this? This is, after all, why God invented queens; so that they could go and teach underprivileged children the value of sequins. The results were about what you’d expect,...
