Alright Mary: All Things RuPaul's Drag Race

This week on All Stars, the final 5 are brunching and bitching as the cast of Sex and the City (and their unnamed characters for copyright reasons) in a threequel no one asked for. Meanwhile, we couldn’t help but wonder… who wrote this script? But all is forgiven this episode once the topic of NUANCE comes up in the workroom! Then it’s a revival of Cats on the runway (plus one airbrushed lion), Janet in the lip sync, and finally, the Top 4 of All Stars 4. Meow, Mary!

The queens get by with a little help from their Judy's for this season's makeover challenge. The Top 6 are serving chosen family resemblance realness--though some are more like distant cousins or ex-spouses who once hosted a variety show together. We discuss how Judy Garland had (and hadn't) kicked off the Stonewall riots and find plenty of Best Supporting Actress nuances to nominate. We get into report cards vs. strategy, which runway looks sent us over the rainbow and why Naomi is a ninja star.

This week, our hot takes on the Season 11 queens have cooled just enough to discuss who we’re excited by right off the bat, who we’re keeping a curious eye on, and what trends we’re noticing with this season’s cast. It’s too early to call it, but we already know who we’ve got our odds on (hint hint)...

HGTV meets downtown NYC as the seven superstars still standing split into teams to curate the hottest party you can have in a cubicle on a soundstage in Simi Valley. Monet and Monique are putting the E.T. in meet & greet, Latrility are a’buzz with bee puns, Naomi carries the weight of Club 96 on her skinny shoulders and it’s last call for Valentina’s French vanilla fantasy.

Put ya lighters up, it's a RuPaulapalooza! Or is it a LuLaRuPaZa? A Lululemon Pizzeria? Either way, all the eliminated queens are back to duke it out in some All Stars lip sync death matches. Latrice isn't mad, but don't get it twisted, she is back to attack Monique Heart for bypassing her path to the crown. Is she possessed by the Spirit of Delusion, or just giving us the drama we've been asking for? Also, is Trinity nervous? Gia seems to think she looks nervous. Naomi bends but doesn't snap, Farrah works on her hair toss, Valentina channels her inner Alexis Michelle, Jasmine, for one brief moment, reminds us of her mastery, and Monet and Manila have the easiest week ever in Drag Race history.

The queens pay their disrespects to RuPaul’s dearly departed best Judy—the original pizza rat herself, Lady Bunny! In this roast of the living dead, Monet and Manila burn the house down while Trinity and Naomi are dead on arrival, Monique calls on the spirits, and Valentina’s on life support. Despite an instantly iconic Top 2 lip sync, the All Star rules are changing this week, and some familiar faces are back in the workroom. Everyone is officially gooped, but hey, that’s showbiz.

Manila Luzon faced a true maxi challenge on the runway last week when her first choice for a runway dedicated to padding was deemed “distasteful.” We bring lots of question marks and exclamation points to the controversy over a period, then dive into some hot takes on who’s making it to Top 4 at this stage of the game.

It's disorder in the courtroom when the queens duke it out in a small claims court off Exit 7 of the Garden State Parkway presided over by the questionably honorable Michelle Visage. This week's improv challenge inspires some questionable Jersey drag, but Monique's ironbound commitment and Manila's new arc as the queen to beat take them both to the top of the turnpike. Latrice is feeling unpleasant at this point, Monet narrowly misses her exit and Trinity is guarding her state in this competition by maintaining a union with Valentina.

In this week's Nuance, we chime in on the state of Snatch Game in the series and what the future might hold for this consistently anticipated episode. We then take a deeper look at Snatch Game, comparing how this season's all star queens performed on their own seasons' Snatch Games and how often past winners of this checkpoint challenge go on to win or get close to the crown. Do we officially have our frontrunners for All Stars 4?

Happy New Year's Eve, Mary! The queens are looking for love in all the [blank] places when this season's Snatch Game is remixed as a Celebrity Love Connection. Trinity Taylor's stodgy Caitlyn Jenner and Manila's muppet-like Streisand shine while Gia Gunn hangs on by her fingernails as Jenny Bui and Latrice is once again not having it with this romper room fuckery, but this time as Della Reese. Valentina lives her telenovela fantasy in the Bottom 2, Naomi continues to ninja through the competition, Monet and Trinity try not to laugh through a produced fight and narrator of the season Monique continues to be gooped.
