Not as dire as the Snatch Game, but they're really not beating the allegations that this is a season of terrible performers. Even the ones who wrote good jokes didn't really deliver them that well, Lydia and to a lesser extent Lana aside.

Pleased to see Arietty go. Miserable instagram queens who can't do anything other than runway and have the nerve to be salty about it are my least favourite genre of contestant.
 
Loving Onya in Untucked though. She has a lot of emotional intelligence and was absolutely right to call out Lexi and Arietty for the way they treated Jools. It really showed the differing levels of maturity that Lexi took it on the chin and admitted she was in the wrong, whereas Arietty just kept being rude and petulant.
 
I thought they did well, but in what world were Lana and Sam funnier than Suzie?

Happy for Lydia, who was great.

I don't think she'll win and she might not even crack the finale, but Lexi feels like far away the main character of the season.

I liked this episode. It felt like the stakes were higher than they have been in a few weeks.
 
I thought they were dry rather than stilted. The energy was a bit lower but her jokes were the best.

She felt the most like an actual comedian on stage, but I suppose the least like a drag queen hosting a show out of the stronger queens. Whereas Onya had weak jokes but has the most presence.

I do get the Cracker comparisons, as much as they seem to want to compare her to Jinkx.
 
Nah, look at someone like Alaska for how to deliver dry jokes. I'd go as far as to say Suzie had the worst delivery of those that didn't completely fall apart.

It lacked that air of confidence that the jokes would speak for themselves.
 
Suzie is nowhere near as hateable as Miz Cracker, but she’s clearly not in Jinkx’s league either. The show does seem to be having fun setting her up for constant disappointment.
 
Yeah I can't believe they didn't even touch the Jewels/Arietty beef in the critiques. Maybe a reunion thing? Arietty was such a miserable cunt the entire way through the season.

I HATE the bullshit emphasis the show puts on the performance order. A bad act is a bad act. Your placement won't make you funnier.

It's definitely a weak cast...which is probably why they're all so desperate and nasty (:disco:)
 
Oh and I'm actually REALLY happy for Lydia. She was legit funny. Although I thought Lana's "Actually I don't give a fuck" was the funniest line in the whole thing :D
 
The Mimi challenge was a waste of time and that guy from EW gives me the creeps

Lexi was annoying as hell BUT I’m sure the hormone therapy has something to do with the massive swings in emotion

Onya won me over this episode

I am so glad Arietty left finally.
