How can you introduce somebody like Nat and then snatch him away that quick? Ugh, I liked him.
Is it weird that I’m feeling so very confused?
The start-of-the-apocalypse stuff in this episode was done better than anything on Fear the Walking Dead.
When you take all the stakes away (aka no eliminations, prizes they aren’t winning for themselves, etc.), there’s clearly no sense of urgency to learn your lip sync lyrics. I love seeing all the queens every week, but we lose an element of what makes the show compelling.
I disagree with any thoughts that this was a bad ending. I thought it was perfect.
That Ginger and Eric scene is one of the absolute best of the entire series. Hilarious perfection.
This episode serves as a proper reminder of how incredibly talented Nelsan Ellis was. He shined so brightly as Lafayette.
I’m astonished at how much I’ve grown to love Roxxxy since her first season.
I love Nina, but she was trying wayyyyyyy too hard with those reveals. It just fell so flat.
Pedro might just be my favorite host of all time. He’s such a natural! And adorable to boot.
P.S. That groundhog Weekend Update sketch was so cringe.
I love that I get to see all these queens all season… but a couple of the runway looks, and even a comment by Nina, prove how the lack of eliminations might inspire them to play it a little safe.
Also, that lip sync was very underwhelming.
I’m not sure how I feel about the plan for this season. I love the charity element, and that these organizations are getting some visibility. But — with no eliminations — there are zero stakes each episode as a viewer.
And there doesn’t seem to be any criticisms coming from the judges either. The love fest is nice and all… and these queens have certainly earned their praise… but we still need some CRITIQUE… and I only foresee the concentrated love fest continuing.
My qualms aside… this is an EXCEPTIONAL cast. I can’t help but look forward to what they’ll bring to the stage each week. I think I have to look at this season as a celebration of this show’s legacy rather than a competition.
Officially a fan of Morphine now! She should totally be in the finale.
Plane DESTROYED that lip sync. Probably my fave moment of this season.
This rewatch is reminding me how horrid and painful Sam and Alcide’s storylines are.
This show is absolutely ridiculous. If I have to hear “that’s what Alicia would do” one more time, I’m going to set my TV ablaze.
And how did Troy’s daughter manage to swim off the boat and out of that lake/river with her hands tied?
Are they even trying?
An emotional episode that was a bit hard to watch. Not sure how Margaret was in real life, but I enjoyed her as a character on this show. That ending was a bit of a gut punch.
Also, the casting for young Elizabeth was spectacular. I initially thought they brought back Claire Foy for this! Almost identical.
I couldn’t roll my eyes enough watching this. Some of the worst television I’ve ever seen.
This whole story is ALL kinds of muddled. What an absolute mess.
I wish I weren’t such a completist who feels the need to finish any show they start… because this is absolute torture.
Are they even trying?! Madison looks mighty wonderful for a woman who’s been locked in a small cell for seven years. Seriously?? Is this a joke?
The plot of this episode itself is asinine. To think I have 11 more to go is EXCRUCIATING.
When I do vote, it won’t be from watching that performance challenge. Am I the only who can never understand what they’re saying? And the decision to have a lip sync for the win was probably based on the fact that the show wasn’t ready to lose Q or Plane Jane… which would have likely been the case.
Emma is hands-down the best part of this show.
Q is definitely a better, overall queen… but this was one of the episodes where I feel like the lip syncs are pointless… because Q was NOT impressive.
Long-haired dude was totally fake crying after that marble game.
I love me some Billie Lourd and Leslie Grossman… but give them British accents, and my eyes couldn’t roll any farther back. Just so silly.
And the true horror story here… pickles and ice cream! Blech!!
Darren is such a frickin’ ham. It’s so annoying.
Weird and abrupt ending that felt a bit incomplete. But there was a lot of compelling imagery here. I thought they did a great job at depicting the tragedy and devastation of this moment in history. It really is a true American horror story, but it’s not American Horror Story.
I’m all for a show mixing things up, giving the audience something new and from a different perspective. But I personally don’t watch this show to feel sad and melancholic. I dunno… I just feel that this story would have been better received without the inherent base expectations that come with American Horror Story. I personally wasn’t in the mindset to sit through this. Albeit powerful, it should have been a separate series.
Does AHS really need to be this depressing?
Aw Jake, I was rootin’ for ya. They were all talking about fire and who had the most. In my opinion, you had the most.
Tribal council chat has become so boring. I love me some Jeff, but his questions aren’t very inspired and haven’t had the kind of reaction they used to.
