Amy dressed as Bernadette was so funny! Mayim Bialik needs more opportunities to show mean Amy :)
The "Pardon my French" button definitely needs to come up more often.
Aah, now we're getting back on track! I am very happy with this episode.
The ending gimmick was very charming, quite up to the story told.
Having your walk evaluated by Naomi Campbell is something that really could have only happened in this season of All Stars. Only a true professional, cool headed, experienced queen could walk in front of Naomi and not break under the pressure. Beginner queens would have fallen, would have been stuck in their own anxiety. The fact they all performed, and most did well, and even great is a credit to themselves. It was incredible to watch, and a lovely feature! The best moment in the episode.
This is getting surprising even for people who have read the books! I appreciate that. What is the fun in watching a mystery if you already the twists? I mean, I expect the culprits will be the same, but new layers are being added to this story.
Although I think we will miss Stevie's arc with Kat and catching up with his past in Hudson street. A pity, since he is the narrator of the novel Angel of Darkness!
I really relate to London!
Near the end, after things go back to normal and they are walking to school, how come Koshiro and Kaga have their umbrellas open and it's raining on them, but Ayumi has her umbrella closed, and not a single drop around her? Then, when she talks to Kaga in private, why does he leave her with his umbrella and goes out running into the rain, when she has got one of her own?!
I cried with Plastique, loved to see Alyssa, adored Nina's legs (seriously, they looked amazing, she needs to display them more often!), and hated Ra'Jah's guts - why does she need to put everyone down all the time? Ugh.
However, the episode was fun, I love design challenges and RA'JAH IS GONE SO YAY. I would be very upset if Akeria went home, because I love her aesthetics. It's so Queen of The Damned!
Very promissing beginning... finally, we ride! I am excited to see where this will go.
I am so proud of Naomi for what she delivered on this Snatch Game. I think it means a lot for what she came from.
I felt so much for Latrice, though. I mean, this is Gia's carreer suicide, because everyone in the RPDR audience LOVES Latrice and will certainly hate her after this. Good riddance.
I was going to rate it a 7, but the few seconds showing how Dylan solved the permit issue raised the rating to an 8 immediatly! It was just too funny.
The thing with Stiles' mom was the most depressing family thing ever to appear on an MTV show, I am sure.
I was not thinking much of this show. We already have a 90's sitcom (Fresh off the Boat), and an 80's one (The Goldberg's), so I thought something based on the 70's was just surfing on that wave, but I am quite surprised with what I am watching. It is not the silly type of comedy we usually find in the 20-min format, but it is actually rather sensitive and sweet. The cast is doing a great job, the writing is as delicate as a drama, despite keeping it lighthearted. I have no complaints on these two recently aired episodes, and I plan on telling everyone to watch it!
That was a bit underwhelming, compared to the series so far. Maybe it should have stretched into a 12 or 13 episode season.
I do hope they get renewed and move on to The Angel of Darkness, it is my favorite of the novels!
I have now watched this episode 4 times, trying to decide where they are taking this murder investigation, in comparison to the book. I am not sure I like the way that is going, because I am so fond of the source, but oh, do I love where they are taking the characters! I love how they are exploring the rivalry between John and Lazlo, which is not really something that happens in the book, even though the Mary plot is faithful enough. I am quite enjoying all these new interpretations, and Dakota Fanning is coming off so well as Miss Howard! I cannot wait until we see more of Cyrus and Steve as well. Will Kat make an appearance, I wonder? Ah, I am looking forward to this!
Ben for the win, but keep Trixie in second for the running commentary!
That was far darker than I expected. I have trouble with the mockery Miranda makes out of people with mental disabilities, but I appreciate how terrifyingly truthful the whole plot with her father was. It is true that Miranda is difficult to like, but he left when she was a little kid. The act itself is cruel, admitting he did so because of her is cruel, and do we not see this too often when a child with disability is born? How many parents simply cannot take responsibility for their child and leave, sometimes completely abandoning them? It really got me.
Whenever reality crosses Miranda's perception, it is nothing but absolutely harsh and cruel to her. Maybe it is not such a wonder that she would rather live so far away from it.
I am too sad for Drake. But I agree with the users who said Rita's ending was not right. I get that she would want to kill her dad, but I do not see why Major could not have pulled her up.
And the bit about the singer Rob Thomas... I have to say I loved it, despite the terrible pun. I just love his music :)
I was excited to learn Emily Browning was playing Laura in the show, even though the character has few parts in the book. Seeing this episode with sole focus on her backstory just made so happy, and Browning was great in it. She's definitely playing Laura brilliantly and I cannot wait to see more!
Although I remember clearly how full games would fit into a single floppy disc (my at the time favorite, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?, for instance!), I kinda have to wonder if yearbooks with pictures and captions would really take only one disc when my school projects needed a lot of editing not to get bigger than 1.44mb when pictures where included.
Funny nostalgia there, which is definitely what I enjoy the most about this show :) I do wish Rowan Blanchard had more screen time though, I think she's great.
Each episode gets better and better, and yet this will be the final season. Ugh!
I think Zoe's college life will be the first fun and interesting college experience arc ever to appear in family sitcoms. At least this episode was very promising!
This was the best show I have not understood ever.
Liv and Tim echoing Will & Grace's closing line from last week's episode, "Why are the hot ones always gay or nazi?", hahaha.
"You smell like books and you are wise. You really are the whole package."
I actually enjoyed most of the storylines this time, and I love that Neil Gaiman participated in this! Penny's struggle with being heard and credited took a long time coming, but I loved that they finally mentioned it. I am not sure I liked where the Amy story went, but that was it. It was an actually good episode, the better one for a while.
I hoped Ra'Jah would redeem herself, she didn't. And it is shocking how mean they all were to Scarlet. I mean, surely, she was cocky, but never harmed anyone or said anything behind their back, or stirred things up! Also sad how I think Brooke Lynn was the one to speak positively about Yvie, because it felt like no one else would?
This was the shadiest cast of all, I think. Because these were not spur of the moment feuds that resulted in loud, dramatic bursts, but they were really hurtful towards one another and carried this hurt all the way back home. I don't think these girls will be friends or get to share careers in the way other drag race girls are known to do.
Silky makes Untucked incredibly annoying to watch. She is always salty about something, and when the video came out she was positively jealous. How can a person so full of horrible feelings make anyone laugh?
Well. Wasn't that upsetting? Sincerely, if the other lipsyncing queen had gone home, it would also have been an unfair waste. I think Eliminated queen got too cocky after being constantly showered in compliments and behaved a little arrogantly by not learning the song, but to be fair, I don't think either of them really did so badly as the one who barely escaped. Miss Lucky getting spared by her team's overall performance right after trying to throw them under the bus was ridiculous. She should have gone home after bombing AGAIN and appearing with another BASIC look.
Now, bitterness discussed, can we talk about Trinity? She's been consistently surprising me. She isn't afraid of taking risks, of taking characters, of trying anything that is put in front of her. That one is a force to be reckoned with simply due to her sheer nerve. I feel that she doesn't even blink when taking on a challenge, she just tackles it! She is really growing on me.
Edit: after watching Untucked, the Eliminated's situation turned even more bitter to me. She was extremely aware that lipsyncing was a real possibility, and yet didn't prepare herself. Which is specially bad after getting read on her challenge because she hadn't prepare herself for that either. Girl, you got some explaining to do there. Was arrogance going over your head? You're pretty alright, but since [i]when[/i] has beauty ever been enough in this competition?! You need something to back it up.
This went exactly as it should have.
-Kameron started off slow, but she had been growing on me. I am surprised to see her winning so soon, but I knew it was coming. Since Blair, she definitely became my favorite.
-I loved Aquaria's make up. It was so good, I do not even remember what she was wearing, I just stared at her glitter eye illusion.
-Can we get an "amen" for this elimination? FINALLY. Her drama and attitude since last week got me eyerolling every time she mentioned it. She does not sound angry due to unfairness, she sounds whiny out of envy. And that is not a good color on anyone.
