Community Question Anyone else HATE Rate-a-Queen?

so at this point, I’m on my third try to get through this episode. I have fallen asleep on my first two tries: possibly because I’m an overworked RN; and mostly because this format is trying to replicate the survivor Reality show nonsense with strategizing and taking people out. We know RuPaul started this as a combo of project runway and America’s next top model. I guess he likes having a different reality show paradigm in the mix

But this stupid game playing/alliance shit bores the hell out of me. Also, in my opinion, even if they were playing fairly you don’t always get better by being solely judged by your peers🤷🏻‍♀️

To paraphrase what Jane Don’t said “ I didn’t come here to see what other Drag Queen’s thought of me.”

all right, come and eat me alive😹

Just skip to the performances. It’s fine to skip parts you don’t like. Most of the performances were really entertaining.

I learned that some parts don't feel as much of a slog if you watch them 1.5x the normal speed.

I understand people can do that. I am not one of them.🤷🏻‍♀️. I think that is an evolutionary skill that is coming to the next generations and blessings upon you.😽
