RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 3

[newintown]

All I know of Morgan McMichaels is what's been shown on the RuPaul shows. And all I've seen there is a bitter, mean, nasty-not-in-a-funny-way, negative bore.

Of course, we all know that "reality" shows have very little to do with actual reality.

I've also heard Morgan is pretty fantastic, and many queens speak very highly of her. Her punk rock bitch persona just does not come off well on reality TV and makes a bitchy edit very easy.

[TotallyEffed]

Morgan is a doll in real life and puts on a SHOW.

[RippedMan]

Most of the bigger girls seem to start strong and end bitter. Daren Lake..Ginger... 

And Ben is def. a class act. She would have nailed this season. I feel like Shangela should win only because they have been TRYING to get her to win so many times. Just give it to her and let her move on.

[ArtMan]

I'm not as much of a fan as the majority on here.  I can only catch what I can if it is posted on youtube.  But I really like Shangela.  Her personality comes across genuine and nonbitchy.  Along with Alyssa Edwards, I would make an effort to go to the club and watch them perform if they were in my city.

When did they try to get Shangela to win? When they brought her back after getting eliminated the first episode of her original season? I think Ru just saw something in her and wanted to give her a section chance.

Mildred Plotka said: "Besides Latrice (who I adore)and maybe Ginger (who I find a tad overrated), there hasn’t really been any strong plus sized girls cast on the show. I think returning Eureka is the only plus sized girl on Season 10. I wasn’t really impressed with her last season. There have to better choices out there."

There's "Kalorie Karbdashian" and it seems like being a big girl is her whole shtick? At least based on her Meet The Queens clip, where she didn't really wow. Eureka O'Hara was truly one of my absolute favorites in S9 and I thought she was a frontrunner till she was asked to leave. She had some great looks, added drama, but was also really nice - and I didn't mind her talking as much as some of the other fans. It's a reality TV show, what else can she do to keep the cameras on her lol.

They'll have to add more twists in S10, the format is beginning to get really stale. Apart from Valentina's mask-gate and actual finale, the actual competition was really underwhelming in S9. Especially after the phenomenal season that AS2 was. I just want AS3 to be over already so we can get the reunion. With Ben gone, I have no interest in this show especially since my other favs (Kennedy and Trixie) are being boring.

And I agree with what Jordan. Morgan is truly a very hard-working queen who's one of the nicest Ru girl I have seen. She's phenomenal.

[RippedMan]

Just feel like they keep giving her chances - RE: Shangela - and I think she's great, but she doesn't seem to be able to deliver. Maybe now she can finally win, since Ben left, but Ben is leagues better than anyone else left on the show. Kennedy should have gone home. 

[RippedMan]

Apparently there's some hardcore tweeting going on between Shangela and Ben.

[Valentina3]

It's all fun and games (till someone's lipstick is drawn). The 10 min preview of next episode finally made Bebe interesting to watch. Ha!

[RippedMan]

Is there a reunion show? I don't think so right? Cause they're getting ruthless. 

[Valentina3]

I think VH1 taped it but there doesn't seem to be time slot for it yet. The 2 episodes left will be top 5 and I assume the finale - but season 10 starts immediately after that week. I'm hoping they'll either do increase the length of the finale to just include it during that week's airing, or release it online soon after.

[newintown]

The show really has all the air let out without DeLa. And Bebe... I've met so many passive-aggressive, defensive fakes just like her over the years, she just makes my skin crawl whenever she talks.

[Musical Master]

Well Morgan's gone, again. But I am very excited for tomorrow's finale episode, this is gonna be good.

[Someone in a Tree2]

Wow-- I promise to divulge no spoilers but THAT was NOT how I expected the finale to go.

In the light of day, it might be prudent to wonder just how much this competition of pure talent morphed into a competition for best squirrelfriend instead. The producers seem to have structured this show to make any Miss Congeniality award completely redundant. I for one don't think that's a positive development-- the best damn queen should be the one who wins, regardless of how many fellow competitors she pisses off.

 

[TotallyEffed]

So unfair.

YYYYYYAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!! TRIXIE WON!!!!!!!

 

[RippedMan]

See, but I don't think anyone pissed anyone off. I don't think anyone seemed angered or pissed off. They merely thought "Oh, you've done VERY well without winning," so why give it to you? And re: BeBe, she's already won. Sure, it was season 1, but she's in the "hall of fame" regardless, so it made sense. I'm happy my girl won. She's incredible, and I hope it only helps to grow her brand. That said, I LOVE me some Kennedy, and hope she gets to NYC soon. 

[newintown]

I'm pleased with the result - perhaps not my #1 choice, but then that penultimate elimination thing was just weird. Taken as a whole, I think the contestant eliminating contestant thing just doesn't work very well, and only generates a sort of artificial, negative lite drama.

And Bebe still makes my skin crawl, with the lying and passive-aggressive nonsense.

[Mildred Plotka]

Bebe straight up lied, and with Morgan present, about all the girls agreeing she shouldn’t reveal who she was going to kick off and bring back. Maybe they cut Morgan calling her out in the lie.

So happy for Trixie, though the look in Shangela’s face broke my heart a bit. Also wondering what Shangela had under her dress for the lip sync. It looked quite big.

I really did start to cheer for Kennedy towards the end. She would have benefited the most from the crown.

[Kad]

Shangela not making it to the top 2 was a shock. Out of all the queens, only Thorgy (who, it must be mentioned, has never looked better) picked her lipstick- and even that was as her second choice.

Dela's self-elimination and then this bizarre jury kind of cast a pall over the winner. I love love love Trixie, but hate the fact that she got the crown this way and will probably always have her win questioned. It made the rest of the season sort of moot.

[Mildred Plotka]

Did they post the jury votes somewhere?

[Mildred Plotka]

Found it. Their first vote got 2 points. The second one point. Interesting only Thorgy picked Shangela.

I was delighted to see Shangela get voted off.  She's got one schtick and one schtick only, see her once you've seen her a thousand times, she's never once done anything but the most obvious and easy thing --  she's never surprised the way Ben did with her Goth performance.  I remember Shangela on her second run on Drag Race nattering on and on about "strategy" and taking a good deal of pleasure in messing with other contestants's heads and there she was, doing the same thing all damn season, with the new delusion that she's on GAME OF THRONES.

Good riddance.  I'd rather have had RuPaul declare that since the Ultimate Decision was Hers and Hers Alone, she was going to award the prize to Ben De La Creme for having set a standard that none of the others came near.

Whatever.  I hope that they dump the whole thing about having the contestants vote each other off -- enough with the backstage drama already.
