If you have Hulu, I recommend watching “The Jinkx and Dela Holiday Special.” It’s basically a movie version of Jinkx and Bendela’s Christmas show that they toured with last winter.
Not a bad start to the season, and it’s refreshing to see something a little different. I watched the meet the queens videos and all of them appeared really boring and humorless in those so I’m glad that wasn’t the case! I think my favorites so far are Symone (charming!), Tina (bitchy!), and Mik (a token fashion queen I like!). Not sure if I find Utica’s whole...thing endearing or overbearing. Disappointed that all time banger “Rumors” had the worst lipsync out of all of them.

I'm in love with Rose, Symone, Mik, Olivia, and Tina. Out of drag Tina looks A LOT like one of my exes, I did a serious triple take.
I felt bad for the porkchopped queens and I hope they knew about a twist ahead of time and it was a producer created "surprise" because to go through all that and think you're going home right away would be such a bummer! I did appreciate getting to see all of them lipsync right off the bat, though, so that was cool. Especially Denali in those ice skates!
I definitely thought this too! I honestly thought she should've won just for the technical feat of doing that well in ice skates, even if her titties fell out a couple times.
Good to see Manila Luzon has a permanent place at the judges table right now!
Overall, again, not a bad episode. I came out of this episode way more impressed with Olivia Lux than I expected to this season, though I'm glad Symone got the win. "Condragulations" is a stunningly awful song, and I don't think anybody had a good verse, but I thought Tina's rap did not match the rhythm of the song and she sounded out of breath the whole time so I was shocked to hear her get so much praise. Also, speaking of songs, was anyone able to actually hear what Mik was saying during her runway presentation when they were playing that bring back my girls song? I couldn't hear it over the words of the song! Anyway, hope next week's song performance is better, I'm glad all the queens are getting more exposure on the show blah blah blah but I want to see someone get eliminated sooon!

Does anyone have any idea of how this season is going to work? Will we go back and forth between the groups every other week until there are a small enough number to compete as one group? I've seen it speculated that it was done this way because of covid limitations.

I'm going to include the answer below in a spoiler in case anyone doesn't want to know (it goes through the next two episodes, no elimination order or anything revealed):
In next week's episode, the "loser" queens do essentially the same challenges as last week and there's a lip sync for the win. In the episode after that, all 13 queens compete together and one of them is eliminated.

First of all, lol @ this group saying that they're the most trade this season when, outside of Joey Jay in drag, the only one who comes close to claiming that title is Rose, and even he looks like Chris Keating in the "Ambling Alp" video. Overall, though, another decent episode even for a carbon copy of the first. Kahmora is obviously beautiful but also...obviously going home first, it turns out I do find Utica's shtick endearing instead of overbearing (vegan cult thing and all!), and I remain deeply impressed by Tamisha Iman's ability to make clothes and unimpressed by her ability to anything else. Glad to see that all time banger "If U Seek Amy" got a good lip sync this week.
In case 1 new season isn’t enough, UK season 2 just started this week, and it’s off to a much quicker start than season 13.
How are you watching UK? I need more drag race.
I splurged and started paying for wowpresents. I found UK season 1 to be one of the absolute best seasons of drag, so it was a no-brainer to pay for season 2.

Nice! I didn't even know that streaming services existed. On it!
yeah, that was brutal. I felt so bad when Kahmora came out in that dress as beautiful as it was because it was so obvious she wasn't going to be able to move around in it at all.
Another random thought: I know that RuPaul is basically an expert on every pop culture moment that happened between 1940 and 2008, but it felt especially egregious to criticize Denali for not getting the "What a dump!" reference. It doesn't even come from a well known Bette Davis movie! I don't think it mattered much in the long run (e.g. everyone had a Mommie Dearest reference and everyone made it into their own thing except Denali) but a lot of times expecting anyone under the age of 60 to know these Old Hollywood references feels a little ridiculolus!

Thank you for saying this, I thought I was just very uncultured lol.

Literally the only reason *I* got the reference is because Elizabeth Taylor quotes it in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf which I saw two weeks ago and the joke is that she doesn’t remember what movie the “What a dump!” quote came from!! And that was in 1966 lol

Thank you soooo much for pointing this app/website out to me. I've really been enjoying it!
