    Sasha Colby 100% should have won the girl group challenge. The fact that somebody so beautiful is willing to get ugly and kooky when the situation calls for it is the mark of a truly special performer. Sasha is always ready to give whatever vibe the situation calls for because she’s just that good at what she does.

      I think it would make s15 better if Sasha won girl groups. Because then producers wouldnt be pressured to give her the ball and interview wins she did not deserve. Had those wins gone to MIB and Luxx the top 4 would feel much more even.

    Also, there are two things in the UK series that I’ll never forgive…season 1, Cheryl going home for the makeover challenge. Chez and her sister absolutely nailed the family resemblance brief. And season 2, the fact that Ellie made top 4 over Awhora is criminal. We could have had the entire Untied King Dolls in the finale 😭

    I think the biggest issue with AS5 Snatch Game isn't even who won, it's them doing "If you're not in the top, you're in the bottom." at like top 6 out of 10, with plans to go to top 3. I'm personally not a fan of that twist at all, and the fact that Alexis or Juju had the chance to go home on that episode was nuts.
    Also, congrats on 1k! If you don't have anything planned yet, might I suggest your Top 10 Drag Race Queens Of All Time? Any season, any country. I'm sure we could figure out a couple already based on recent videos *cough cough* Lemon *cough cough* Pythia, it'd still be real fun to see.

  • @BurlapRat
    @BurlapRat 10 месяцев назад +12

    For the Jorgeous win I honestly think because Ru loved her so much they were trying to set her up as a potential finalist. So give her a random win that way she gets to the finale with a win but then they noticed that she was kind of failing the challenges so then they just gave up on her and sent her home during that double sashay.

      @@doperagu8471 true but you also have to take into account what era of drag race that was. Reality Television was peak at that time and if you revisit this video you would know that losing either one of those two would be a bad move for production. You can also count willam's elimination to be just there for the shock of it all. But I think regardless of Willam getting cut or not, I think it would've always been a double save. I mean it's definitely not the first time they did a double save, why scrap the idea off then?

    i will die on the hll that laila in the bottom on the premiere of season 8 was the most blatant sign of production not caring about a queen other than naysha there was Robbie, Cynthia, Naomi, Dax and honestly you could make an argument for Derrick who could have been in the bottom over her but they made up this excuse saying she was the worst in the photoshoot challenge? by that logic Alaska should have been in the bottom on Season 5 and Gia on Season 6. I fully think they thought naysha given she was a miss continental winner was gonna win the lipsync and went into panic mode when laila won

    1. Well you skipped over a major reasoj why sharon vs phi phi was a double save. Willam was disqualified and they didnt want to send 2 queens home. I would even go as far as to say that they only put them in the bottom 2 together that early bc they knew they wouldnt lose any of them.
    2. I might be in the minority but i think that rajas madame was very mid. Visually she looked great but so did trinity and her jokes were WAY worse then trinities. Her diana was better but trinity slayed as leslie.
