I don’t understand how someone is not put in the bottom when competing in a talent show and the judges reaction to their talent is “is that it?”
They clearly wanted her to be in the finale. She literally made ahh single balloon animal skipped off stage.
The production team really thought people will be rooting for Karen lmaoo
@@dumbelion3104 because of trixie and katya mentioning her
@@gingerdog8203 too bad they mentioned Karen two years ago. Internet moves fast. And yeah I was curious how Karen would perform cuz I heard of her from Trixie and.Katya duh. But on her own. Not being pushed at the expense of other queens that clearly do better at a competition
i think elektra being put in the bottom for.... being too good.... was the turning point of the season. any other season would’ve rewarded her, but down under was so fucked
Immediately checked out after this nonsense
The first lip-sync, "Tragedy" really foreshadowed what the rest of the season would be like
THIS IS SO-💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Respectfully, the alternate reality where Elektra wins is now my reality. I hope we get some kind of international all stars to give her the recognition she needs. Her and Anita (at least!). So much talent wasted to push some questionable favouritism.
Oh yeah, totally. We Wandavisioned our way into that timeline where the kiwi queens and Auntie Maxi are top 4 👌🏻
In my mind the kiwi queens +etc (or maxi) make it to top 4 with Anita winning 😌💅
Agreed
There is going to be something like an international allstars (uk vs the world) but the first season doesn't have a lot of different countries. Only America, UK, Holland and Thailand. Kind of a bummer because they could have waited to film and then had more different queens but I hope they do a season 2 so that other countries like Spain get a chance at Allstars fame
@@schmokmok69 it’s speculated Anita only will be competing on Canada vs the world
in a perfect world, Scarlet would have been disqualified
And anita would've lasted longer
In a perfect world, Scarlet would have never been casted
If she had been eliminated (in RuPaul’s head) that would be giving into the dreaded “cancel culture.”
@@pekamoon8207 HAHAHA
Unfortunately they didn't have enough good footage and episodes and storylines to edit her into a disqualification unlike they did with the pie person in s12 so ultimately it was never going to happen. Also defamation lawsuits are a huge thing in Australia at the moment for right wing opinion holders to silence anyone who tries to discuss these behaviours so rupaul may be aware of this and cautious. The court system finally is able to hopefully reform after a recent election but politicians always act in their own personal interests either way so who knows what will happen when things come down to it
As a kiwi myself, I went to see Elektra perform at a bar a few months ago, and no word of a lie - they are literally the kindest and most genuine person I’ve ever met. If you ever get the chance to meet them, absolutely stunning.
Awww that's lovely to hear, they seem like a sweetheart!
im kiwi too and got to see kita, anita and art perform a few days ago and they are all incredible performers!! amazing stage presence and crowd work
@@beetosbeef I was at that event, too! It was probably one of the top drag events I've been to!
I really hope the editors learn from this season and it’s reception. Hopefully we’ll get a UK 2 level comeback for this franchise because down under really needs it 💀
Please don’t equate UK1 to DU
@@bradlee6223 They didn't equate it. They just want DU2 to be just as good as UK2
I highly doubt they will actually try to make improvements and this goes to the US drag show as well they can make the production involvement less noticeable but making questionable placements as well as sending undeserving bottom placed queens home for little to no reason or to push whatever storyline they got brings in views and gets people talking cause bad publicity is still publicity and that’s the main thing they care for
I think you mean producers. Editors generally put the footage together, they don't decide who wins challenge or have a say in any of that.
different producers for DU2.
Literally when Michelle said “I know it’s contemporary lyrical and you have to have your shoes off but it just feels unpolished” I wanted to scream
Can we be frank and Honest I love Kita Mean and am very happy she won however lets face it she was the only one of the top 4 the viewing audience would have been ok with winning with Scarlet and Karen's racism and people not feeling Art Simone coming back for no reason and seemingly undeserved Kita kinda won by default and im sorry to say it because i love her and dont mean to be disrespectful in any way.
I think everyone agrees with this. Let’s say that Scarlett and Karen are “learning,” to give them the win despite as Jack mentioned here that the “I’m still learning” is an undeserved reason for being the winner of the competition, that’s gonna be a punch in the audience’s collective faces because of the huge hypocrisy the producers do.
Almost everyone watching the show agrees that they watch the show for the queens, not for Ru, which is why Ru should finally step down as host and give other people/past contestants do the hosting and judging. If she still wants to be the Exec. Producer, let her but her comments as judge and host get muddled as she’s also the producer of the show.
Came to totally say the same thing. There was just no other possible ending, even tho Kita is a gem and an incredible talent and I just adored the kiwi girls over all but it's sad that there was no other option out of the chosen top 4. And my heart breaks for Elektra. She deserved better. But to be completely honest....as soon we saw that the POC queens were the first queens out (even tho Elektra totally did win the lipsync no argument here), I was worried.
"I was a model before the accident." Is my FAVORITE entrance line of any queen EVER.
ru may think that queens shouldn’t ‘blame it on the edit’, but as we saw with this season the edit (with some other..questionable choices) completely ruined the season! i hope s2 is a lot better, may it just be for the amazing aussie and kiwi queens because the world’s view of down under drag was seriously damaged by this season. great video by the way!
You know, considering Elektra was in the bottom the very first episode, then consistently improved on herself each week, it almost reminds us of ANOTHER DA we met on Drag Race this year with a similar edit: Bimini Bon Boulash on Drag Race UK Season 2. Difference is, the judges seemed to praise them and actually push them more towards success, even more so after they came back from the 8-month quarantine. They won several challenges, gave some of the best moments on the show, and was considered a real favorite to win. And even though they didn't win, they've done pretty well for themselves outside of the show. Elektra could've EASILY been on a similar trajectory as Bimini in this competition, but the judges kept knocking her down because... reasons.
Had a whole section of the video I cut because I made a really similar connection with Bimini. I just could word it well. You took the words out of my mouth!
Didn't we see a v similar thing with Kendall gender in Canada s2-
Except for the fact that Bimini is and was far more polished 😳
@@arsenicapricot8765 But Bimini wasn't as polished before they went home for lockdown.
@@cutlers3618 that's besides the point every single episode they got better and better, and outperformed the others, the same can't be said for elektra
That talent show episode made me almost go mentally insane. In what universe or dimension would making one balloon animal and fake putting cake in your mouth be counted as talent compared to outfit change magic and interpretive dance 😭😭😭😭. Sure Kita and Elektra wasn't amazing amazing, but it's way better than Karen and Art.
Art’s performance was camp, funny, and unpredictable.
@@juliensth9807but not talented
For me she's the trade, miss congeniality and the winner hahaha I love her so much but... They did that to her
I think when etcetera was sent home, we all knew Electra would be sent home. Etcetera wasn’t even that bad in the challenge; in my opinion she should’ve been in the top that week. Sadly, they wanted to save Scarlett’s reputation and try to keep the show’s fav queen in the competition. I’m order to do that they had to sacrifice someone, and who better to sacrifice than the one who stood up against Scarlett this ep because of the action the show tries to fix? And they would never put Karen here, even though she was SO bad and she also has a racist past. So of course Etcetera was the sacrificial lamb for Scarlett’s success. It also sets up Electra for a loss because she is being painted as Scarlett’s “rival”. If they eliminated Scarlett’s biggest opposing voice, they’ll happily eliminate her enemy.
Also, the fact that the producers and judges dismissed Elektra's good makeover just so they could create the expectation of an Elektra vs Scarlett lipsync that didn't go anywhere...
Maxi was an easier rival for Scarlett to defeat so I can imagine that the producers preferred to sacrifice her rather than risking Elektra winning over Scarlett but then eliminating the rightful winner of the lipsync
The way Elecktra's track record could've EASILY been:
BTM HIGH WIN HIGH WIN HIGH WIN.
Elektra's track should have been:
Bottom 2, Safe, Win, High, Win, High, Win, Winner♡
If you're reading this, what do y'all thinkk? Lemme know your opinions
Very Bimini
Righttt
Definitely not lmao
BTM2 HIGH WIN HIGH WIN HIGH HIGH
Slayy
you forgot: In a perfect world Art doesn't even comeback _at all_
Here is my thing, the whole poc queens going out early should not be as problematic as it was AT FIRST. I think Elektra did slay in the lip syncs and definitely deserved to win her lip syncs, but it was problematic when they brought back art, rather than the other queens who were poc, especially an actual native Australian who had an important message and obviously was using her time on the show to spread that message.
Yes
I think the biggest issue is there shouldn't have been only 2 POC queens cast, Aus & NZ are both very multicultural countries and in NZ at least the drag scene mirrors this, so to only have 2 POC queens cast was super bad on WOW's part and for me was the first red flag of the season.
@@rhiannonxxo that’s true
@@rhiannonxxo the fact that across both seasons, there were no māori in the first one, and only fair-skin white māori in the second was... a choice. plus the cultural ignorance of indigenous people and islanders is abysmal beyond kia ora (even that isn't done properly tbf) and pounamu jewelry. has the word takatapui even been said? rainbow community?
i fear for any asian, african, PNG, or middle eastern aussie/kiwi that gets cast.
If I were to Judge down under ngl elektra would have 4 challenge wins (girl group, design(either her or maxi), commercial and talent show) as she is so talented and it’s honestly shocking (no pun intended) that the producers fucked up sooo much
If Anita made it to talent show, she would have won (well, in a fair world) She performed her talent in her one woman show and wow. Her trumpet playing is unreal
It feels like there were three or four different production teams, each with varying amounts of experience with Drag Race, trying to fight over the storylines of this season. There was the "Elektra is the lovable underdog" team, the "Elektra is a filler queen" team, the "Elektra is way outclassed and shouldn't be here" team and the "Elektra is a villain who is a direct foil to Scarlet" team (those last two may be combined into one). There was just so much whiplash with how Elektra was treated. The only good thing to come out of that mess is that we got to see a lot of her and were able to see how talented and enjoyable she truly is, even when production is trying to manipulate us.
I really like Kita and I’m glad she won but you know she only won cause production had NO other option.
I'm happy you gave to win to Maxi in the design challenge, also Elektra, Kita, and Maxi making it all the way would have been amazing.
Let's get the Naomi derailing S8 deep dive next! She's my favorite queen ever.
What did she derail?
@@ksanchez979 idk but in a poll that was one of the options.
My guess is that she eliminated Betty? Idk
@@w_y_s_t_e_r_i_a yes i think it was Betty, when i was watching S8, i don't notice naomi until she won the makeover challenge, and betty was really being built up into the end so the shock when she's eliminated.
@@lovelessshin3
I see what you mean, but I thought Betty shot herself in the foot because she made some comment to Ru like, "You don't do your own makeup, so you can't really judge others on how they do theirs"...? I could be wrong because I haven't found any firsthand sources for this but it's what I heard. If it's true, it makes sense why the producers kept in EVERY single comment she made about Trixie's makeup in that one Untucked episode.
Honestly down under was just a big disappointment cuz they had so much potential, yet missed so much
Gold was in sight but the producers were searching for bronze
The fact that art was only brought back because they lost the footage from the lip sync of her elimination and so needed her back to re film it, and she only said yes if she was brought back into the competition.
Imagine the humiliation of being eliminated a second time just for the footage
Wait.... What?? That's what happened? Ugh that makes it even WORSE than it already was!
Wouldn't contracts and obligation and such require art to return if need be ? I don't think it's safe to say that without proof, I don't think art demanded a spot back I personally think she WAS indeed favored , I personally love art Simone even before rpdr down under but seeing her undeserving return spoiled her appearance on the show for me.
Lol that didn’t happen
I always get mad when i think of DRDU so I decided it happened different.
The top 4 was Anita, Kita, Elektra and Maxi shield
Elektra was not bullied and humilliated in every episode and in the end she won
can we please have a discussion about how in the new zealand drag competition, house of drag, hosted by anita and kita, elektra was a runner-up with 4 challenge wins and no bottom placements??
Seeing how badly Elektra was treated couple with Kita automatic win considering the others Queen, DRDU is a bitter pill to swallow. Ru and the production really act like a white savior when they "forgive" Scarlett. It's not like they only knew about his past after the show finished filming. They already knew from the start and has already decided that she need to go to the finale. That's stink. In fact all finale queen, beside Kita should've went home earlier.
Everything you said is my exact thoughts, this entire season was so weird and the producers showed all of their cards, it was clear that they wanted Scarlet to be the front runner, Art and Karen to be the fan favorites, and that they didn’t like Elektra. Everything that could’ve went wrong did essentially because in any logical sense Scarlet would’ve been disqualified for her past racist actions, Art would’ve stayed second out, Karen would’ve probably gone during episode 3 or 4, and the Kiwi queens would’ve dominated the season.
Scarlett was absolutely the wrong bet. Karen could have been so much more interesting if they emphasized her helping and supporting the others more (I think that was something Karen did, as mentioned by other queens, if I remember correctly).
Elektra had the best story and deserved so much better placements, she could have actually been a possible winner.
I’m talking about the challenges. They need an Aussie/Kiwi production team.
I feel that the producers had such a cursory knowledge of down under culture and references. It’s basic at best, kinda racist/prejudice at worst.
It would be like if a bunch of straight dudes who’d watched one season once produced a US version. They’d pick obvious gay stereotypes and it would suck.
Like, Australia doesn’t have Proms! Why did we have a prom theme in like week 3? You run out of references already? Ffs
I knew it was going to be trouble when it comes to culture when the Michelle didn't get "Melbourne" with Art's hometown look. I been there a few times, and I instantly could see where Art got the inspiration from. The way she batted away Elektra's explanation on her look being inspired by Tamaki Makarau, the Maori name for Auckland, also shows a severe lack of sensitivity (could have just gave similar critique to Jojo, "important message but need to be done right") to the place she is at.
While "Sheep" and "All Blacks" to me was the most basic way to represent anywhere in New Zealand, but then again, one could argue Kita and Anita was smarter in doing something the judges will definitely get. Also, Ru apparently didn't know who Bindi Irwin is, while failing to warn Etc Etc to probably not do her snatch character, nor notice the tastelessness of Karen's Rucycled look. Apparently being a drug mule and making fun of mothers who lost their child are fine, but poo jokes is unacceptable.
And to top it all off, they didn't even bother doing a challenge that touched on some of the things Aus/NZ is famous for, best they got was Sheila in the bush.
Came to comments to say this.. it was just so limited on what they considered "Australian" - the challenges seemed so lame and stereotypical - even the accent jokes etc & the props/set dressing etc
6:32 “she was in the bottom that week” no because I was FLOORED like she did so well in that challenge it was INSANE
I skipped DRDU and now I'm glad I did, just this video made me so frustrated to see the mistreatment here
Between this video and the season 12 video, your channel has been serving us content at a higher level of quality and interest than I've seen on any other drag race channel on the platform in recent memory. Can't wait to see what else you do!
Thank you so much!
This is such a good Deep Dive! I'd love to see one about Shuga Cain!!
this to me is one of the hardest fumbling of the ball moments the show has ever had. they had everything they needed to make an amazing story arc for elektra and just did that with it
The whole season could´ve been somewhat saved if we got the underdog winner story fulfilled for Elektra 😭
I genuinely blocked almost all of this out so I was repeatedly triggered having to relive it all watching this 😭😭😭
This :')
I hated that Art Simone went home second but based on her performance over the rest of the season... it would have been better if she stayed gone and came back for another season
Seeing the way you edited the talent show moment, it reminded me that Elektra’s talent show performance is literally my favorite talent show performance EVER. Second is Rajah O’Hara’s AS6 performance, of course. Simply incredible
The NZ queens are the real top three. We're all thinking it, I said it.
I agree with everything you said except your take on Art's talent show.
Her talent wasn't "eating". It was comedy. And her impeccable comedic timing is not something you can learn in a day.
Karen however...yeah there's no excuse for her not being in the bottom.
I was just rewatching some bits about it yesterday and Elektra and Kita were delightful since day 1
Edit: This same thing of the performer being on the bottom for "doing too much" just happened with Synthia Kiss on DRCAN
Sry but Synthia deserved every bottom placement.
@@alzbetamarkova4308 youre joking right? did we watch the same bye flop challenge?
@@alzbetamarkova4308 Yeah... No. The only bottom placement Synthia deserved was during the ball. She was top material during the girl group challenge and at least low on the acting challenge because Kendall did worse than her
@@adolfoarias6857 Well, let's just agree to disagree. I felt that in that case it was a little different than in Elektra's but everybody has a right to think differently. I hope it didn't ruin the season for you, because I loved this year of CDR and I felt that the judging was way better than last year.
@@alzbetamarkova4308 It didn't ruin the season for me. I still don't get why the producers picked Synthia as the first sacrificial lamb from the Brat Pack (sp?) but this season was filled with amazing queens like Stephanie, Pythia, Suki, Icesis and every single other queen of the cast. Also, the panel of judges was great. Brad and Amanda were great additions even though I missed Stacey
I'm just dropping in late to say that neither Scarlet nor Elektra should have won the design challenge, that was Maxi's challenge win
ur drag race vids are so professional and now ur blessing us with this face reveal 😭jackfed subscribers STAY blessed
I just subscribed and I'm waiting for more vids to binge ... I'm impatient
Elektra 1000% should’ve won the season. She was so SO fucked over by the production.
Scarlet is just proof that racism against mob here is rarely taken seriously or seen “as bad as” discrimination against other minorities, and rupaul thinking it’s his job to accept that apology despite not being blak was so devastating
i cry whenever i hear Untouched by the Veronicas 😭
This season was so uncomfortable to watch. The racism and riggory was in full force.
Was really looking forward to this! Glad to see your take on a very messy season and this deep diving style works so well for you!
This video was SO GOOD! Your work is immaculate and your delivery is so Great! Love your content❤
Your Deep Dive videos may be my new favorite video series on RUclips. Please do more!
I died at the ending. I don't often watch youtube drag race content, simply because I don't have much spare time, but your videos have absolutely been so enjoyable and so well thought out. Thank you for putting together great content!
Omg! I just finished rewatching this season yesterday night! Fab video!! Well researched and super insightful. I will always love Elektra :)
Brilliant effort with this video, very compelling. I really appreciated the fade to Elektra's performance during the talent segment, it's not often you get goosebumps from the same piece of media twice. She is pure talent, such a pleasure to watch. We are so lucky we benefitted from her being on the show, salvaging what was otherwise a fairly unremarkable season. Thank you so much for uploading.
Your analitical way of viewing drag race is really amazing. It's super satisfying to watch!
Thank you for this! I loved Elektra and remember being so mad during the season for so many reasons
the quality of this video is so professional!!! really hope these blow up
Appreciate these videos! I feel like I’ve watched all the other commentary channels work so I’m really glad to have your voice join the room! Great work! ✨
Your drag race deep dives are incredible and all I want from RUclips
Your channel it's gonna be huge,your quality is amazing and I'm glad to be here since day one 💓
There are probably going to be a lot more "...WTF?" seasons with their only redeeming qualities being the finale where the most-rooted-for queen gets the crown. Unfortunately, competing queens know just how vicious the fan base is and are actively trying not to be painted as villains, which is leading to much stronger production meddling for the sake of drama to get more views. Drag Race's production team is like any probably team in that they are neither moral nor immoral but amoral. They do not care if they are seen as the true villains behind the scenes as long as they are getting paid, and drama brings many more viewers.
Idk how I managed to stumble to your channel in the void that is RUclips but I’m so glad RUclips recommended you to me. I really enjoyed this and your season 12 video, keep up the great work ❤️❤️❤️
love your analytical approach to the drag race franchise! most definitely subscribing! please keep the videos coming 💓
man i just know you're gonna get big some day. glad to be here so early. you are so professional
This is literally the only season of drag race where I haven't watched to the end. The episode elektra got eliminated I stopped caring and stopped watching. I heard about Kita's win on twitter a few weeks later and was like "oh ok 🤷♂️"
You're so eloquent and caught our attention so easy. Good job! I love ur videos
Your videos are so high quality and interesting, keep it up
Thank you!
As a kiwi I’m so happy with the kiwis that were on the show! 💗💗💗 I’ve also met Anita Wiglitt and she is absolutely lovely. Soso lovely
I'm really glad you made this video. This season felt so disjointed and I wasn't able to put my finger on it till you laid it out. I couldn't for the life of me understand why Karen and Art were in the top. Also, as a kiwi who is also an american, I felt that the producers did not how to properly frame kiwi and aussie humor. It made for a lack of nuance and an awkward vibe for a lot of the show. Fingers crossed season two is a hell of a lot better.
i actually used to be friends with scarlet and supported her during her performances until she started doing blackface (at which point i distanced myself from her) and seeing her in the show get a slap on the wrist and nothing more was just so disheartening. like, i had actually told her to not do blackface and she ignored me , but when shes on national television shes suddenly regretful? it was a conscious choice, and it sucks to say as a former friend but im honestly appalled that she made it as far as she did. shes talented yeah, but that shits inexcusable.
I really love your analysis!
What a deep dive, good video! To be honest, the only way I can see that episode 3 edit make sense is if the editors were deliberately trying to shock us (pun intended). Like you said, everything up until the critiques was pointing at an Elektra win, or at least a tight race between her and Scarlet. Not... that. How often have we had another queen say that her teammate deserves to win? I just don't find any reasons for her placement that episode satisfying.
I liked Elektra and think she and queens like Maxi and Anita were just so obviously not on their radar. Kita has an edit that actually gets better on rewatch, I thought she was being set up as a backup contender.
I don't necessarily need an underdog to always win over the "cocky queen" archetype as long as the editors make it *make sense* that the underdog can't get there. They could've done more to show us why Elektra was making it far, but not to the end. Then her story wouldn't have been so frustrating for me.
also wrt the choreography ep and placing her in the bottom, when other queens take charge and focus the dance on themselves, they're praised for smart competition choices. I was so shocked when Electra was critiqued for it :/
The producers could have given a Roxxy versus Jinkx storyline to Scarlet vs Elektra.
But no. They didn't expect people not to forgive Scarlet's past. They didn't expect people would unearth Karen's past as well, and they probably thought they could bring back Art for no reason because she already had huge following pre-season and forgot about the fact that they eliminated two PoCs.
Someone was probably too lazy to do background checks AND to observe possible storylines during filming.
The whole Scarlet thing is so baffling. Is like they didn't expect her past would be properly dug up, trying to paint it as "in the past" to give a false impression that it was years ago. Secondly, they are asking us to forgive the cocky arrogant Queen of the season for being a racist. At least give us the edit where she was the underdog, the nice and talented queen (albeit with a shameful past), like give us a reason to want to forgive her.
What surprised me was how much they criticized Elektra for outshining her group. They’ve never given that critique before. If anything they say the opposite, that it’s your time to steal the light whenever you get a chance.
Elektra is one of my favorite queens, as a dance teacher myself the struggles of pursuing your passions and trying to make a living just hits home. Seeing her success outside of the show is amazing!
Elektra was my absolute favorite on season 1..
There's a "rumor" she's gonna be on an international season.. hopefully she does well there (i'm sure she will)..
One favorite moment from her was when she asked consent from the pit crew if it was okay to pretend giving the pit crew a head.. that just shows her character so much.. very respectful and very talented..
Completely unrelated to the video but it took me so long to realize the crystal you have as a necklace is literally the same one I have but mine is just an amethyst instead, iconic
Your reviews are amazing.
i sound like a teacher marking work but this was very well structured and communicated 💕
the title is so creative omg
New here and wow you have the best deep dives I’ve ever seen
The instrumental of Untouched by The Heathers distracted me IMMEDIATLEY. Yet again I am reminded of The Heathers and their genius producing and legacy.
I have two main thoughts on Down Under - 1. I'm convinced the editors were open in their distaste for production choices, and that is why there was such confusing editing, with the seeming production favourites getting the worst edits.
2. I am convinced it had been decided that Scarlet was the winner until there was such strong audience backlash. Kita was the correct winner, but I don't think she was the producer's choice.
This episode is a 10/10 I love it
Elektra and Maxi were robbed
And Coco
@@melteddali8000 that is also true
Love your videos SUBSCRIBED
I think something worth a mention is that the overly produced edit really bombed with Australian audiences. The whole show felt like it was trying really hard to be what an American thinks Australian culture should be and relied too heavily on stereotypes as opposed to actually embracing real Australian drag culture and humour. Which IS often crass and gross.
more videos like this one please 🥺
I LOVE THIS VIDEO
plis do this with the dirty edit with Charity Kase in UK SEASON 3
Great video. Thanks!
Let’s be real we could just call this edit “the Monique Heart.” Screwed twice cuz she didn’t fit WOW’s version of a winner
Coming back after UK vs the world. 3 times
Art Being brought back was so uncalled for
Electra’s make-up in the make-over was great. What were the judges smoking?! WTF
i just wanna say that your eyes are really pretty ! i very much agree with every single thing you said in this video , i really don’t get why drag race down under is so messy , like it’s just so confusing to me .
I think one of the problems was that putting NZ and Australia a together presumed shared culture. Would they have a Drag Race Germany and the Netherlands?
I mean, that would have the added disadvantage of the language barrier. There have been plenty of NL + Belgium or Benelux programs. But I do agree with you, it's just for drama and pooling resources, not because the cultures are the same.
I have it on good authority that the queens early on found a white board with the elimination order on it. Art Simone obviously wasn’t supposed to go out that early but the rest of the season would have required some heavy lifting from production to rewrite, hence her awkward return and some of the more confusing elimination choices
It goes perfectly with the idea that production was laser focused on the story they wanted to push
Elektra was what kept me watching. So good!
The riggory of it all!
