Asia, Monet, and Monique's friendship and kiki is so much fun to watch. I don't remember enjoying watching queens in the werkroom this much since Season 4/5.

I have been gagged many times this season. Starting out this season I wanted Blair, Aquaria, Cracker and Vanjie to be top 4. I hated Eureka until the last two weeks, and she has shown that she is here to SLAY. Her answer to the audience question in last week's challenge was an "America's Next Drag Superstar" Answer, and I am rooting for her now. 

I am SO disappointed that Blair went home, I personally like The Vixen but I thought she had one of the worst looks of all time, and her lip sync was good but I thought Blair's was better.

Snatch Game this week is either going to be REALLY good or REALLY bad.

I’m hoping there are a minimal amount (or none, but I’m not holding my breath) of queens doing other queens on Snatch Game.

I'm totes excited since I think we have a lot of funny queens left. But we'll see. There's bound to be a queen who picks a non-funny Pop Star or Real Housewife.

Right? It’s amazing how every year there is more than one queen who picks over comedy. Beyoncé isn’t funny. Lady GaGa isn’t funny. J-Lo isn’t funny. And all the Housewives are single joke characters.

I’m hoping there are no YouTube “stars” I’ve never heard of. (Which would be all of them).

I’ve read a few spoilers. Some of the choices sound fun if executed well.

I think the days of characters pre 2000 are probably over.

On a giddy high after scoring tickets to see DeLa, I decided to tune in to tonight's show... and WOW! Bianca, Audra, ALEX TREBEK!!!!  I thought for sure the Snatch Game would be humorless but Maya, Melania, Honey Boo Boo... nailed it! And to top it off... a heck of an ouch in the Lip Synch. An exciting episode.

Wow, what an episode! The Snatch Game was a mess at times but never boring.  The Vixen really is full of anger. It was nice to see her a bit vulnerable in Untucked, though she managed to even turn the girl's trying to bond with her over her Mom's video into a fight.  She was lucky that Monique didn't know the words.  

Aquaria really was great as Melania, and her runway was gorgeous.  I didn't like her at first, but she has really grown on me.  And week by week I become less annoyed with Eureka.  At least she knows she's loud and obnoxious at times. The Vixen has no clue of how unsettling her behavior is.  Or she does, and just doesn't give a ****.  I'm ready for her to go already.  I was hoping Ru would send them both home.  Bring back Miss Vanjie!

Yeah, that chip on Vixen's shoulder is HUGE.  You can tell she's getting on everybody's nerves.

I thought he character choice was brilliant but she just didn't have the execution. And Beyonce is never, ever going to be funny.

The Vixen is an absolutely toxic presence. She doesn’t have the humor or the talent to justify being such a nasty human week after week (with the exception of last week). And those lip syncs are awful. She has got. to. GO.

I’m surprised by how much Aquaria has grown on me. She’s a smart queen in that she knows how to utilize her natural talents and is aware of her limitations. Her Melania was perfect. I’m also surprised how I’ve softened toward Eureka. She’s loud and obnoxious sometimes, but damn if she isn’t hilarious and doesn’t SLAY that runway.

I’m growing tired of Miz Cracker. She clearly has a lot to offer, I just fear she’s letting her smarts and anxieties get in the way of just letting loose. I would’ve pegged her as the frontrunner earlier in the season, but now... not so much.

I think Cracker will go the way of Trixie. Unable to fully show her comedy on the show, but will blow up and have a huge career after. Some Queens, as talented as they might be, just aren’t great at Drag Race. Cracker has a very dry sense of humor. Watch her “Review with a Jew” on YouTube. It’s hilarious, and her personality shines through far more than it does on the show. I think she’s one of those queens that won’t need the crown to be successful. 

I was shocked by how much these queens have had to spend to come on the show. In Untucked Kameron said she spent more than her down payment on her house for costume. Cracker said she spent more than she did on her college education (which I’m sure was a huge exaggeration).

It's def expensive. The make-up alone is a lot of money. Considering how much is used and how often. 

And I agree, Colors, Eureka and Aquaria are becoming my favorites. I really want a big girl to win, so I'm rooting for Eureka, I think she's got it all. And I'd love to see a small-town Southerner take the crown. 

Cracker is fine, but yeah, I thought her snatch game would be so great, but it wasn't. She needed to lower her voice or something. It was just so bland.

After Snatch Game, many of my opinions have changed on the queens.

I agree that Miz Cracker will have the similar fate of Trixie now, I used to consider her THE front runner for the crown.

Eureka is winning me over, her Honey Boo Boo was, I think, legendary.

Aquaria has won me over, and has proven that, maybe she can win the crown.

Kameron continues to float through the middle of the pack.

Chi Chi, THAT is how you do Maya Angelou, Monet was hilarious but I thought her runway was disastrous. I hated it.

The Vixen, gurl.. I used to love the drama with The Vixen, I lived for it, at this point it is becoming toxic to the other queens, and it just feels like she is overly defensive. Her runway this week was terrible, one of the worst looks up there with Aja's "princess" look.

I don't understand why Asia made Beyonce mean, it wasn't funny AT ALL. I wish she would have done Whitney.

I used to be Team Cracker.  I was really charmed by Maxwell's personality and cuteness.  I also from the beginning could not stand Aquaria.  But for some reason, while my fondness for Cracker is diminishing, my appeal of Aquaria is increasing.  I still cannot stand Vixen.  She has a huge chip on her shoulder.  Everything and I mean everything is about race to her.  When members of your own race are ready for you to go, then maybe you should open your eyes and see the problem may be you.  Monet is funny and appealing.  I prefer him out of drag.  Kameron is a bore.  I am surprised to say this, but a final two Aquaria and Eureka would not bother me.

Last week's Snatch Game was WAY better than AS3 (BenDela's Paul Lynde aside) with Eureka, Aquaria, Miz and Monet giving me good hearty laughs. And this week was definitely the best time for Vixen to go home, she is getting on everyone's nerves, and mine. Also congrats for Kameron to get a win.

TBH, this week is the best Miz Cracker has ever looked throughout this entire season. I mean it.

So glad that The Vixen and her negative energy are finally gone.  At least she seemed semi receptive to Asia's talk with her.  Maybe she'll watch the season back, and be embarrassed by her ridiculous behavior.  She's a great performer, but she's going to find it hard to book gigs after her behavior on camera.  I hope she's able to mature.  When six other people have a problem with you, maybe you're the problem, not them.

I watched this week with my Mom, who likes most people. When The Vixen started to speak she screamed "Oh eat it" at the screen.

I didn't get Miz Cracker's runway look at all. 

The entire Cher-sical was a bit of a mess.  Kameron still baffles me.  She's lucky the rest of the group was pretty awful all around (and that Monet's runway look was terrible).

Yeah, the Vixen's paranoid delusions were getting out of hand -- still spouting that lie about how every one of them wanted her gone...

I don't know you guys. A) it's edited tv, and not that serious, B) Asia's conversation with The Vixen was powerful - it explains why The Vixen reacts the way she does. V acknowledged a lot of that pain and anger in her. Let's cut her some slack. She's a great performer and has immense potential.

And turns out Kameron was Pearl of the season lol

Yeah, it's edited.  And if there's a problem with the editing, all The Vixen has to do is issue a complaint with the way it was edited and the way she comes off in the editing, which, to the best of my knowledge, hasn't happened. 

The Vixen's a mediocre performer at best, trotting out the same schtick week after week, she should have been sent home after that catastrophic Snatch Game and that demented unmotivated attack on Eureka.  No doubt Vixen will appear on the reunion still complaining that everybody wanted to send her home, it'll take more than a conversation with Asia to cure that kind of paranoia.  Even RuPaul summed it up in her farewell, "You came here looking for a fight..."  RuPaul's wrong though in calling The Vixen a "champion."
