The queens are getting pretty blatant in their disrespect for Jorgeous -- Bosco's comment about RuPaul being Jorgeous' organ donor just the latest. Is Jorgeous being kept around to fuel drama, building up tension that might explode in somebody finally calling Jorgeous out for the waste of space she is?

I liked Moulin Ru and agree with whatever judge said Lady Camden could play the role on Broadway. She was very good. But the Snatch Game was dreadful, followed by the Lip Synch Stink, then the Willy Wonkher debacle. And what's with all the judges' love for Daya Betty? Get back on track y'all.
Looks like we have our top 5! Couldn't be more glad to be rid of Jorgeous and Deja in one fell swoop. I think Willow Pill is on her way to take the crown, but I'm really rooting for Lady Camden who I think is so great.

Finally our top 5 and it's a great one! The roasts were subpar, but it was great to see Bosco get a rudemption after two weeks of struggling. I'm still Team Willow or Angeria for the win, but all five are deserving and I would be fine with any winning. Should be a good race to the end!
Jesus, a top 5? That’s like a third of the seasons cast. I miss when shows had a top 2 - like you had to make it through everyone else to get to there.
I also thought Daya should have won the challenge this week. But as for who wins the season, I think I’d probably be cool with any of them taking the crown, but I am kind of hoping it’s Lady Camden.
Another nothingburger of an episode. Really bored with the anticlimactics that have defined this season.
Rooting heavily for Lady Camden to take home the crown. I just think she is an absolute star.
It will be interesting if the season's top two ends up being her and Willow Pill, as that's a pretty much parallel match-up to season 11's top two of Yvie Oddly vs. Brooke Lynn Hytes (the unique/weird/odd contestant with a history of medical challenges facing off against a classically trained dancer).
Why even bother with a reunion? Almost all of the cast was there the whole time…and still is. There wasn’t a preview so I’m sure it will be as boring as this latest nothing episode.

I mean if straight people can have football 4x a week. I'll take more Drag Race. I enjoy the show, the queens, the talent, the judges. A lot of queens but they're all fantastic. I'm team Willow, but it doesn't seem like the season was really set up for her. I wonder if they were banking on Kornbread? Cause she would have nailed all of these challenges.

THIS. I don't understand why so many people are upset at non-elimination episodes. I think Willow has this in the bag at this point, but I could see a Lady Camden upset. I'm happy with any of them winning. I wasn't a Daya fan at first, but I think she's proven herself the past few weeks and her finale slot is well deserved.
Agreed. I mean, Kornbread would have 100% won, but I think Willow is our queen. But, she hasn't been winning much, so honestly it's anyones game. They're all so damn talented. Happy with any of the winners. And personally I loved this long season. The challenges were fun and unique. And we got to know all the girls. And look forward to them on other seasons.
Happy with the final two and very happy for the winner. As long as the Vegas production runs they should continue to film the finale there. Great production values.
The one thing I thought odd is Ross and Carson were nowhere to be seen. No introduction, no nothing. Is there going to be a shift with the judges next season?

Big congrats to Willow's win and it was a very satisfying finale to watch. This season as a whole was quite better than last season which I thought was really, really good.
Agreed. I just wonder how those 4 songs were picked? Angeria and Willow went comedy and it worked well for them.
I thought Willow's concept was really a show stopper in the final lip-sync. I don't think she'll ever be a knock-out lip-sync performer, but her concept was great and surprising. Glad they both won money.
The only things I liked about the finale was the Vegas number and then the segment about Hot Chocolate's history and giving her her flowers.
Nothing about any the final 5's performances were noteworthy and the original songs always give off this incredibly hokey feel. I know they did it because it's more songs to release for download but I really wish they'd do like Thailand did and allow the girls to pick their own actual song and build a routine around it. I doubt the Queens had much actual input for these performances outside of their costumes. And the final lip synch left a lot to be desired. I love the song chosen but... there was no wow factor to either of those performances. Camden replicating her fall after just performing a Queen inspired number all about her staged fall was a choice. Willow's outfit was cute for a minute, but then just... ugly.
Like I did not see how the story developed through this finale and got us to that outcome. The individual performances were literally just time fillers and had no bearing on who made it to the lip synch.
But I can't be mad, I really enjoyed the season up until now and I can't begrudge a Willow win because I have enjoyed her. It's just when you have a determined winner, your editing needs to reflect that for the story to make sense and I'm not seeing that here.
