Yeah, the split premiere, for its faults, really let you get to know the contestants, and I'm still trying to remember who gave birth in their Werq Room entrance, who said they had a body of an Irish rock climber, etc.
I was surprised with Max -- flat/shallow personality judging from her MTQ video, but her looks were so far out of the box that there was plenty of room for Shangela in there. But I think she's going to be a more clueless April.
Pearl's entrance was my favorite.
Some of these girls are cinched to the gawds. Damn!

I loved Max's resort retiree with the crutches, that was all up in some Sharon Needles steez, so awesome

And I presume a wink to Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" video.

Kandy Ho is a shady bearded lady
She wishes she were shady, when instead she's a garden variety a-hole.
One of the fishies -- I think Violet? -- out of drag is what I imagine Detox to look like pre-surgeries.

Also, I have just noticed that there's a commentary version of the episode with Alasks and Bianca Del Rio BEST IDEA EVER

Where's Untucked?? Is it only going to be on Youtube this season?
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:30 (eleven years ago)
online only
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:47 (eleven years ago)
I couldn't find it on Logo's site though! I ended up watching it on YouTube.
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Saturday, 7 March 2015 19:06 (eleven years ago)
Yeah I think it's only on YT -- I guess the idea is try and showcase their channel there more.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 7 March 2015 19:25 (eleven years ago)
Oh and speaking of, the first RuView with Raja and Raven did go up:

LIVVY
:D

Okay that made for a great ending. (And was not the Olivia song I would have picked, even though I was just thinking about it recently!)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 05:03 (eleven years ago)
Ru is such a nerd with her special guest judges & song choices
also Sasha Belle's sad boob malfunction was hilarious and a fitting punctuation to her overall sad-drag
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 05:39 (eleven years ago)
The best thing she did was show up in the Milla Jovovich/Fifth Element knockoff right from her introduction and even that wasn't much. Combine that with the pretension that being a self-proclaimed hyperfan of the show who had 'cracked the code' was enough and yikes, crash and burn, especially after Katya pulled off the fast AND slow splits.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 14:24 (eleven years ago)
Oh and can I just say -- Moby? Out of nowhere? Getting blown? As it were.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 14:25 (eleven years ago)
yeah that was weird and awesome
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 16:23 (eleven years ago)
Also I love how in the space of six months or so Jordin Sparks has been in a Left Behind reboot and shown laughing her ass off at a group lipsync routine full of reverse cowgirl action and oral sex and etc.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 16:27 (eleven years ago)
As much as I didn't enjoy her last week, I thought Jasmine should've been in the top 3 this week. Fashion really isn't her thing, but she might keep herself on the show with her lipsynch like Coco and Trinity did. I do agree Ginger deserved the win though.
― LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 17:48 (eleven years ago)
Yeah Jasmine did a great job. Glad Ginger got the win all the same, she's sassy!
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:00 (eleven years ago)
Moby should've won for his best Thom Yorke drag.
Wondering if Katya really is a former Soviet gymnast now.
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 04:50 (eleven years ago)
What.
What was Moby doing there. It was far from the stupidest thing Moby's ever done, but it was definitely the stupidest thing RPDR has ever done.
― Eric H., Wednesday, 11 March 2015 13:47 (eleven years ago)
I like to think this season he'll just be inviting his random buddies to appear each episode.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 11 March 2015 14:32 (eleven years ago)
it really was the weirdest thing
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 15:53 (eleven years ago)
oh and stupid, no question
You know, I'm very surprised and disappointed that the pretty girls are so conceited and precious about their looks.

Building toward another boogers vs. heathers season?

kinda feels that way a little bit
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 18:23 (eleven years ago)
Uuuughh.
Though maybe flipping the n00b/veteran alignment might make it more palatable.

i really hope that violet gets read to filth by michelle visage soon, like i really want that to happen so bad

I just realized that I'm glad Sasha Belle was eliminated because I couldn't tell her apart from Mrs. Kasha Davis.
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 23:54 (eleven years ago)
Mrs Kasha is not a hot mess, that's how you can tell her from Sasha
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 12 March 2015 00:30 (eleven years ago)
And Kasha is the one who looks like Nina Flowers out of drag?
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Thursday, 12 March 2015 00:31 (eleven years ago)
also FYI Pandora Boxx is doing weekly 5 min episode recaps on Logo, they're pretty fun

Yes and yes! Not sure yet about her housewife drag esthetic though. She doesn't stand out much so far.
― LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 12 March 2015 02:38 (eleven years ago)
Kasha's deal is that she's part of Pandora/Darienne's family from Rochester. Buuut I can't say she's as sharp as those two yet, or at least we haven't seen it.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 12 March 2015 02:56 (eleven years ago)
